Davenpete Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 ANYONE Not very much as they're the most common by far. Dave
pikeys dog Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Carl Carlton ...........Competition aint Nothing £30 Showmen...............Our Love will Grow £50 Dee Dee Sharp.......What kind of Lady £50 Off the top of my head.
Dave West Posted August 25, 2009 Author Posted August 25, 2009 Not very much as they're the most common by far. Dave AM INTERESTED IN A SHOWMEN BUT WAS OFFERED ALL 3 FOR £100 WHICH I THOUGHT WAS ABOUT RIGHT. NOT TAKING OFFER UP... WESTY
homeoftheblues Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Carl Carlton ...........Competition aint Nothing £30 Showmen...............Our Love will Grow £50 Dee Dee Sharp.......What kind of Lady £50 Off the top of my head. I would say you're about right there Joe Martin
Pete S Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Not very much as they're the most common by far. Dave Our Love Will Grow is actually very tough on red and yellow Action, it's at least £50. Competition - £25 Dee Dee Sharp - £35 - £40
paup-ine Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Sorry off topic but with the UK Action theme, how much for Olympics - Baby Do The Philly Dog in crap condition P
Dave Pinch Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 Sorry off topic but with the UK Action theme, how much for Olympics - Baby Do The Philly Dog in crap condition P sold a decent copy for £9 on ebay so less than a fiver:thumbsup: dave
Funky 4 Corners Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 By and large, the values in John Manship's UK guide are about right in my opinion but I'd have a minimum price of £20 and an increase of about 10% generally. However, because it is a very collectable label, the price of a 45 can be distorted if it is on auction and is targeted by someone who wants it badly. Apart from the obvious ones, I'd nominate Roy Lee Johnson on red & yellow as being hard.
Ady Potts Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 While we're talking red & yellow Actions, I have a Barbara Mason "Slipping away" / "Half a love" in Mint- condition that someone has recently asked me to sell to them. What price should this be? can't remember finding one of these before & I can't find it on popsike. Regards, Ady.

What price should this be? can't remember finding one of these before & I can't find it on popsike. Regards, Ady. Sold a load of Actions recently (inc Barbara Mason) on Ebay having had more or less the whole run inc blue & grey 70s releases. Just kept one or two of the more Northern dancers for DJing (E Holman, Showmen, B Patterson etc). Have to say was disappointed in prices I got considering so-called collectability of the label. Only Roy Lee Johnson got over £20.
Jerry Hipkiss Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Apart from the obvious ones, I'd nominate Roy Lee Johnson on red & yellow as being hard. Never thought about a value on that, bought it as a new release as well!! Z Z Hill must be another of the harder ones then?
Pete S Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 The were two that were quite elusive, one was Eddie Holman and the other was actually The Showmen again, Take It Baby.
Jerry Hipkiss Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 The were two that were quite elusive, one was Eddie Holman and the other was actually The Showmen again, Take It Baby. Seem to remember Take it Baby getting poor reviews in the music press at the time.
Pete S Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Seem to remember Take it Baby getting poor reviews in the music press at the time. I always thought it was a fantastic track...as good as OLWG
Tolbert Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 For me it's the Flip of OLWG : "You're my everything" Top tune! Is this General Johnson singing? Sounds a little bit like him.

Linda4me Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Got a mint?? Eddie Holman but the original owner wrote BOB on the label
cloth ears Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 just sold a demo of dee dee sharpe on red / yellow for £250 the demos are ultra rare!!!!!
Guest bradcam Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 According to "Record Collector" 2008... Dee Dee Sharp-What Kind Of Lady £40 Carl Carlton- Competition £45 ZZ Hill-Make Me Yours £75 Olympics-Baby Do £20 Barbara Mason-Slipping Away £20 Roy Lee Johnson-So Anna £30 Eddie Holman-I Love You £70 There aren't any demo prices (or prices for The Showmen!) in the book.
