I would think that whatever the case, vinyl copies should be worth more since the styrene is always burned out

Hi there.

Bobby Reed - The Time Is Right For Love - Bell 888

Issue is rarer than the demo - and issue price is 280- 300, maybe 240/250 for the demo

Love the music

As said by Bob, rarest format is the vinyl issue which I'd value at about 300/350 on a good day..

not sure about that benji. when this 45 turned up in the uk in the late 90`s they were all vinyl issues. i got sick of people pushing them in front of my nose. also later on in the oakland find a few boxes of styrene mint issues surfaced and thats why the value really dipped. not because of ebay. i agree that the demo is not that rare because its a major label at the end of the day. but look at popsike. its about 50/50 on there. still a great 2 sider tho

Hello Mark,

Here`s my observation for what its worth.......I have seen many, many more demo`s than issues full stop. There`s simply no comparison. In my experience,from when it started getting played in the late 80`s,they were never around in quantity anyway,just one`s and two`s more like.shades.gif In fact,there`s more flying about today than i`ve ever seen and thats down to someone[ i dunno ,maybe C.Moerer ?]having it as a constant BuyIt Now on ebay............And guess what? They all seem to be demo`s.

The Vinyl issues are far,far rarer than the Styrene ones but i honestly dont think theres any real price difference.

Tell you what though, they are all overpriced........

I reckon they should be about half what everyone charges.......

Thing is, everyone needs to get their money back though dont theyunsure.gif And i know its played out now but its still an exquisite peice of Soul music [both sides]........

Good Luck Mate,

Ivor

Thanks for all the advice people

Ivor.....I too had noticed that the demos seem to come up often these days, and the issues seem uncommon.... suppose there are lots of copies around, but it's so good that people hang on to them....even though it is overplayed, it still sounds fresh....

....oh yeah, and i've got an issue i wanna sell whistling.gif

cheers folks :thumbsup:

RUBBISH angry.gif THE ISSUE HAS TURNED UP IN QUANTITY AT LEAST TWICE IN THE LAST 15 YEARS, NEW YORK VINYL COPIES IN THE 90T'S AND STYRENE ONES , BOUT SIX YEARS AGO. THERES ALWAYS BEEN A STEADY STREAM OF DEMO'S BUT IT HAS NEVER TURNED UP IN ANY QUANTITY. REGARDS CRAIG MOERER IT'S PROBABLY THE SAME COPY HE CAN'T SHIFT DUE TO BEING OVERPRICED. THE RAREST FORMAT ,IMHO IS THE MONARCH, STYRENE DEMO.

think ive got both somewhere 4 sale and yes the issue might be more rarebut yes your right calm down calm down

no love to hear serious collectors to explain about diffferent labels and all that shit

look at popsike. about 50/50 on there. people can talk all they want but popsike gives you a fair idea. quality as it is tho its turned out to be a really common 45 sadly
