Not great !! It gives "Kylie Minogue - Time Will Pass You By" a run for it's money! (If you've never heard that, take care! You will never be able to un-hear it)

I'm glad to see this back again, thanks Mike. Interesting to see the 2 copies of the Phonetics from the same seller (well I assume there were 2, August and October) and the variation in price. Also, I see a copy of Henry Roe has also appeared on the JM auction. (I'm not saying it's the same copy). Will be interesting to see the JM finish price.

Hi Paul, I sent a pm yesterday with my email details. However, it doesn't appear that the message has been read. Please can you check that you received it. If not, please let me know and I'll pm again. All the best

I've just checked and the result is interesting!!! November 2013 - £464!!!!! I watched the ebay one out of interest. Very surprised at the end result.

One has appeared on the JM Auction! https://www.raresoulman.co.uk/auction/10385/workin-memories May have some effect on the current demand/price.

Is this one of those "reissues/carvers" that appear on ebay with copied labels? The description which includes "you know what they are" seems familiar. Was/is it a seller in Derby?

Regarding Billy Arnell, in the current market, I'd have thought £1,500. The most recent (and expensive) on Popsike was in October 2013 and that was about £1,300 ($2,025). Not too many copies listed there and doesn't come up for sale on the open market very frequently so there could be a fair bit of demand built up. In an auction situation with John Manship - £2k plus perhaps? Just my opinion and I know it's sold for much less in the past. By the way, there's an old photo somewhere in the SS gallery of Chris Plant and someone else (can't remember who) together each holding up their copies! (P.S. - just found the photo!)

I noticed this picture sleeve on eBay and thought I'd add to this old thread. I'd never seen a picture of him in his younger days.

A quick bump/reminder for anyone interested.

Didn't he auction this in July 2015 and get £190? /forums/topic/338002-john-manship-auction-results-1-7-2015/

I've noticed that Berry Gordy is a guest on the Graham Norton Radio 2 show next Saturday, 3rd October 2015. It seems to be to ahead of the Motown musical stage show - "Motown the Musical". https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06f3437

A green one finished on the JM auction last week. It's still there to see with the description. Might be worth having a look to compare.

There are few things to keep in mind here. 1. You could mention to this seller that, although you feel that would be out of order, "2 can play that game" 2. If they did bid, it could push up the finish price that a genuine bidder pay's - thus a good result for You! 3. Just take no notice of someone being childish.

Also, with the 70's boot, the volume on the intro goes down for a brief moment. Have a look at the one Tim Brown has for auction to see if you get any more info. All the best, Kev Bod (p.s. If it's orig and for sale, let me know )

What!! Even the Pink the Pink One for £55!!!!!!!!

.

Selling out via eBay very quickly!

Hi Dave, I've just emailed this scan. Hope it's OK, if not, just delete. All the best Kev Bod

I'd also be interested in finding out more on this. The Blue copy above went for about £1,000 on eBay yesterday.

All done Ady, All the best Kev Bod

This any good? Let me know if you need the other side or without the sleeve Cheers Kev Bod

I liked Elliot Small at Wigan, but ....... about 37 years on and in the cold light of day... However, on the PLUS side, nice to see someone has found some film of Mr. M's and some of the dancing to add to the youtube version.

There may be some truth in this. Currently on eBay, there's a copy of Lou Ragland on ERIC with bidding at over................................£205!!!!!! (SS member selling, must be very happy - good luck )

The 70's Boot/"Reissue" was styrene. The original Demo and Issue are vinyl.

Spotted this on popsike. The seller says that the one's without the anti-slip edge are a 90's repress. https://www.popsike.com/ORIGINAL-1976-45-JAMES-FOUNTAIN-SEVEN-DAY-LOVER-WITH-ANTI-SLIP-SUROUND/251890648556.html
