Is this a sales posting?

Interesting. Was going to message you myself but was thinking along the same lines as the other guy - I reckon £250. Tough one, on a fair few wants lists. Days of being a 50 pound record long gone.

Charles Farren - "You've Changed My Whole Life Around" (Hawk WD) £200 (inc post) Vinyl is VG+ ; label has some biro (see scan) and light wear/ageing Paypal F&F or bank transfer.

********ON HOLD******** Managed to pick up a minter of this brilliant and tough item. One which has gone down well when I've played it out. It has some very faint heat damage along the right hand side (can't see it in the scan and it isn't that easy to spot anyway). This does cause a small amount of 'swoosh' in the opening few bars but once the music kicks in fully, it doesn't notice at all. Otherwise a very clean record with faint label wear. I would look for £175/200 for a minter, £125 for this posted within the UK (overseas shipping extra). Paypal F&F or bank transfer.

There's a number of things in your list which there aren't pics for or title details. Best wishes

Just gone up on Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/sell/item/1073235511?ev=bp_img Cheap in my opinion for such a rare and good 45. I'd want a grand for my copy if I was selling. Good luck.

Hi Folks Looks VG+ with light label wear. BUT, there is cue burn on the intro and a bit of hiss in parts - check out the soundfile. I reckon this would do for DJing, but judge for yourselves.

Looking for OFFERS on this modern/funky soul rarity previously listed at £400 - bargain price, but happy to consider any offers. Bad news is that whilst the record looks clean enough (strong VG to VG+), the opening spoken intro section is a bit fuzzy like it's been cue burned. However, after that the record settles down and plays great. Check out the soundfile. Angela Baby )Jachelle) 2.mp3
