Hi Folks, I've not had any luck in obtaining copies of these two. Can you help please? Buddy Conner - When You're Alone - Looking for the Breakthrough orange 1003 release only. Mamselles - Open Up Your Heart (Let Love Out) - ABC11040 I'm looking for EX copies or better, please (don't want much do I?) and with clean labels. Would be chuffed to bits if someone could help me out. Thank you for taking a peek. Chris

Ahh...thank you.

Wasn't The Hamilton Movement on this week's auction list? I took a peek earlier and it had disappeared...confused is I.

Hi Folks, Posted a few weeks ago, still looking for a copy. It's a present, so ideally needs to be EX or better, and with clean labels. Issue or demo. I would be very pleased to hear from you if you can help. Thanking you in anticipation. Chris

Not Northern, but a great tune IMHO. A staple of the scooter rally scene and one that's always guaranteed to get me singing out of tune at the top of my voice after a few beers on a rally. Love the record...hold on, heaven guide me!

Some surprising prices even in today's surprising climate. Inverts was a relative bargain in comparison to some of the results and I must admit I had expected that to hit four figures. Choice of Colour attracted a far higher price than I'd envisaged. £350, maybe £400 tops I thought. The Strange World Of Northern Soul indeed.

Prefer Willy Mallory myself...

This record is currently 'on hold' pending payment. Chris

Hi Folks, Thanks for taking a peek. Lovely condition VG++/EX (and I am a picky so-and-so). A couple of fingernail-type drag marks prevent an even better grading as playing surface is generally EX/M-. Full £-back guarantee if your grading and mine diverge. £90 (shipping included - Special Delivery within UK). Please buy with confidence as I have good, albeit limited, feedback. Bank transfer on this occasion I'm afraid. Thank you. Chris

Hi Peeps Sadly I am still looking for an M-/EX copy. Like a kn*b I sold mine around 20 years ago...then woke up to just how good it is. D'oh! Buddy Conner - When You're Alone - Looking for the Breakthrough orange 1003 release only. Thanks and I hope you can help. Chris

One room. Stick to a theme/genre/your guns. Other than the biggest of events, you'll split the audience. Focus on what you do best and what your audience responds to. IMHO. Chris

I am the only soulie in the village and within quite a wide radius (of Alnwick, North East). Billy no mates...

Perhaps it did go for £600? The screen shot does indeed show £438, but it looks like the auction was extended as there is still the option to 'Start Bidding' (and the time is 18:02). A quick Google suggests £438 is just under €500 at today's rates, so £600 may indeed be the result. Unfortunately this item is no longer showing on JM's site (some of those finishing yesterday are still shown), so I can't confirm. Incidentally I'm after a copy if anyone wants to sell one in EX/M- for a more realistic value...PM me please

It does seem a little on the pricey side Steve, even considering general pricing trends and the results JM tends to get. Thought it was a £250 - £300 record generally. Have a feeling that Darren Brown sold one last year for around that value.

Er...I had never thought of it until now. I hang my head in shame...

No Steve... Looking like you're guilty until proven even guiltier! Chris Someone fell asleep in the sun!

Will be interesting to see if The Falcons increases significantly in price as a result of this fantastical selling price...and stays at a higher price. I seem to recall JM auctioned a Vel-Vets I Got To Find To Find Me Somebody (issue) for over £1,000 which was totally bananas at the time (maybe 2 - 3 years ago). As far as I know it's never been sold (or advertised) for anywhere near that sum since - I've seen it at around the £500 - £600 mark. If the person who came second in the auction wants to put a shout out on SS and is prepared to pay , say £1,000 for a copy (£300 saving on JM) I suspect they'd have a few offers.

It appears to have disappeared from JM's site. I can see some are still there with their final bids showing, but not all are still visible. Perhaps someone miss-keyed their max bid (or maybe a couple of people did to get it that high). Got a copy a few months back from a well-known and very reliable dealer for I think £350 (maybe £400). Did my dealer mess up or did someone go bananas for this 45? Was also amazed at The Arabians...thought this was £300 - £350, maybe a tad more for the yellow issue. My gast is flabbered...

Evil Ways - Johnny Mathis...my Dad is p*ssing himself that I have bought a Johnny Mathis track.

Hi Folks Thank you for taking a peek. Needs must I'm afraid. Prices reduced so hopefully represent a great deal...if not, let me know and we'll see what we can do.

Hi Peeps Gave my wants list to Santa. He couldn't help, despite me sitting on his knee for 1/2 hour and him telling me what a naughty boy I'd been. Perhaps you can? 4th time lucky... Looking for M-/EX copies. Like a kn*b I sold my copies around 20 years ago...then woke up to just how good they are. D'oh! Buddy Conner - When You're Alone - Looking for the Breakthrough orange 1003 release only. Rosco & Barbara - Could This Be Love - Old Town 1175 (missed out on a nod from a fellow SS collector...) Also seeking a genuinely M- or Ex copy of Toni & The Showmen - Try My Love - Ten Star Thanks and I hope you can help me. If so, I will gladly fill your stockings at Christmas. Chris
