Reg Scott Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 I don't know what you people think, but I was pretty amazed at the latest price Darrow Fletcher - My Young Misery fetched on ebay the other day. Now I know that Mike (thatgirl75) has a pretty high profile and attracts alot of bidders, and therefore high prices. I also acknoledge know this track is popular at the moment but 24 Bids and a sale price of £224.06 - that seems steep to me. I suppose it's the usual case of popularity driving scarcity as opposed to rarity. Doubtless, it's a nice track but you can pick up a copy Darrow Fletcher - What Have I Got Now / Sitting There That Night - Jacklyn for a lot less. It just goes to show what a price premium a prominent seller can command! Regards..

Samson Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 I picked up a nice copy on ebay last year for about $75 US. Looks like Mike's got the golden touch.
