  1. Thecivilservice posted a post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    £60 -£80 issue, £100+ demo
  2. Reckon that if someone takes the time to upload a track then they can pitch it up or down if they want. Think the etiquette should be to state the pitch change in the description though. Does grate a bit when it's not what you're used to like the too fast version of Turn Back To Me by The Amboy Dukes (UK) currently on YouTube.
  3. About a year ago, found a rare lp in Relics Leeds, whilst I was checking the condition (the vinyl in Relics is kept behind the counter so you have to ask for it) the guy looked it up on popsike and realised he had underpriced the record by approx £385 and wouldn't sell it to me. I was stupid for not just buying the record without checking it!
  4. If you just Google the record the first thing that comes up is the discogs link to the UK press, with 2 copies for sale
  5. This is the only decent lulu 45 as sampled by fat boy slim https://youtu.be/2G5HpRiO2_k
  6. Job lot of 118 mixed singles - mostly 60s - several Northern Soul - might be of interest to some! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/-/351599121719? cheers Rob
  7. Great record. In my opinion more likely to be a psych or acid rock group than a 'funk' group so if I were you I would start looking in that 'area' first.
  8. Job lot of 20 Northern Soul 45s £10 start Cheers Rob https://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=221941659996&alt=web
  9. Popsike says one sold on eBay back in may £29
  10. Sorry ignore me...getting confused!
  11. I just youtubed it and there's an Italian rare earth copy with the creepy intro.
  12. Always thought this rare EP only track by Paul Jones had something of a NS sound...from the poppy end of NS obviously but still a pretty good track...
  13. Connie Francis - It's A Different World
  14. Rare UK issue of the first ever Tamla 45 https://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=351516717571&alt=web Cheers Rob
  15. they sound like a pair of dickheads imo
  16. you have to close the case yourself, if you just leave it then ebay just closes the matter and you don't get your fees back
  17. Bobby Wilburn - I'm a Dreamer - 40p in a Leeds charity shop - some time around 2005
  18. if they can get £35 for it then fair play to them...it's called capitalism and its the economic system we all have to live within unfortunately. I don't understand why you think greed come into it. Like if I buy a washing machine I'll shop around and probably get it from AO instead of Currys - more fool people who pay over the odds they have either a deficit of sense or an excess of money
  19. My advice would be to go to some record fairs and just start buying cheap 45s you like the look of. Yes some will be crap but in the long run you'll have more fun, put put the time and effort in and you will certainly find a few rare records, and some that you love, but more importantly they will be your own discoveries
  20. Al Foster Band £9.99 start https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AL-FOSTER-BAND-NIGHT-OF-THE-WOLF-Roulette-Original-Northern-Soul-45-/351289644597? thanks Rob
  21. re. Lenny Curtis - look at the position of the 961 relative to the red band, or the cat. number at the bottom relative to the text nearest it, there appears to be a difference in spacing in the two scans, I would say it's a different record
  22. just look them up on www.popsike.com - then, if they're worth anything, sell them on ebay - that's all you need to do. Take them to a dealer and you'll get a tiny fraction of their value
  23. This sounds quite promising for about 8 seconds...
  24. Most shops in Greenwich village, Lower East Side and East Village etc don't open until mid day or so but will often then open until midnight
  25. Release 100 of any of these records and then the value of each is no longer 5K due to the increased supply = why this sort of scam will never be profitable enough to actually happen
