Frank Wilson Sells For £100000

It's not exactly like finding the Holly grail, more like buying it off a guy who bought it off somebody that found the Holly grail.

This weeks Grail Holy or otherwise - Eddie Billups - Ask my Heart - Peachtree

And we move on

If (as Lee mentions in the news paper article) he has been offered more than £100,000.00 already by several collectors, it really takes this to another level where the sky's the limit!

Maybe it will end up going for prices like some paintings do - It will be enjoyable to watch anyway 

Good to hear of Lee's success in business

Maybe, but if (again as was stated in the article) this latest sale has had world wide attention, it may well go to 'silly silly' (not just 'silly') money - People literally buying it as an investment.

I do like the record (Indeed I do)

Just read this in the Leicester mercury on line sorry don't know how to do links

Allegedly ....

I thought I offered a fair price 

Good luck to him , hes worked for his money and treated himself cant knock it wish I had 100k to spend on vinyl. 

I wonder how much my signed by Frank "pressing " is now worth?

Paid Kev Roberts ten quid for it and got it as a momento from meeting Mr Wilson (RIP )at the LA2004 gig, to compliment my bar menu he signed for me.

If you stand 3 feet away, and its a not too bright dj stage, you can't tell its a re issue:)

Its got to have doubled in value....

Just as a matter of interest ... why was the long-running thread on the subject closed and this 'new' one left running ? 

If anyone else had started a duplicate thread it would have been shut down straight away ...

this is a news item connected topic eg comments made here show both in the forum and also in the news feature 

so I'd say this is better suited one for this the latest round of discussion on this subject
