At least JM has some checks in place to make sure bidders and their sources of payment are genuine, and people are required to register before they can start bidding. On his site it states:

I wasn’t implying there is anything untoward with any auction. Simply stating that no online auction is “totally transparent”

The only way this could be achieved, would be to have the bidders real names displayed for all to see.

At one time, you could see who was bidding on eBay, and you could see who was selling. You could even contact each other, without eBay getting involved. Now, you have no clue whether bids are real or false.

the only ones that are totally transparent are Manships and Ebay where all can see, John can supply a print out of the bids 

I don’t see how any internet auction can be classed as “totally transparent” unless the name of every bidder is visible to all.

Mr Manship’s auction has pseudonyms that could be anyone or no one, and we’ve all seen the shill bidding and other shenanigans that go on on eBay.

I’ve had the opportunity to view the new version of this book recently. 
I thought that I would give you my unbiased opinion, in case you’re thinking of buying a copy.
The original was an interesting read, in that it’s just one person’s opinion on our favourite music. The scans weren’t the best, (black & white)and it was difficult to locate a particular record without trawling through the pages.
The new version however is much better in this respect. Colour scans, and an alphabetical index make this a useful reference book, and ideal for your record room or coffee table.
You won’t agree with the writers choices.
Our scene has become so diverse that would be impossible to achieve a universally accepted top 500. 
I was pleased to see a rare top 500 is also included in the book. You probably won’t agree with this either, but it is interesting and a welcome addition to the book. The only disappointment is that not all the rare records have label scans included.
Personally, I would have preferred that to some of the “filler” pictures and top tens etc.
All in all, I think it’s well worth buying. Interesting and a decent reference book.

JM has recently put up a minter for auction...

Ha ha, typical!

Don’t know what you’re on about. The “has” version is far superior to me. The beat lends itself to dancing. The “have” version is “ponderous” to say the least.

The “has” issue is much rarer too. I’ve never heard that version played out.

Blimey! Original post had been obliterated. I don’t understand why you would go into all that detail about a rare but rubbish version of a totally different record to the one I was asking about?

The Leon Haywood version is far superior in every way. Backing track is very reminiscent of Mr Lucky, and that’s a record I would love to own. Still.

Many thanks for the information guys. It was new to me, and definitely something that I would have played out.

👌

Thanks for the input. I wonder who had it covered up?

Blimey! I can’t believe that nobody knows this?

Just played this record on Tim Brown’s auction, and I rather like it. 
Something that I would certainly have played at Burnley, and I think would have been well received by the children of the night.
Tim states that it has been covered up as Big Daddy Rodgers in the past?
I’ve never heard it, or even heard of it.
It must be rare? Who covered it and played it?
