soulmac Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Anyone know how much the 7" of Gayle Adams - "Baby I Need Your Loving" went for on John Manships auction. I think it was sitting at £200 with one day to go. Soulmac. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest LeoLyxxx Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Upwards to 300£ i think which is really sick! Even demand is no excuse to pay that money for such an easy-to-get 45... Anyone wants to buy my copy the ultra rare "let love come between us" by James & Bobby Purify, only 3957478463£ Sorry.. best Leo Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 I gave away a copy of this about 3 years back coz I thought it was awful.... Why anybody would want it when you can get the infinitely superior original for a tenner or less is beyond me. That said I'm just a little bit sick!!!!!!!!!

Guest Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 I think it's sad taking all that money from people who must be mentally impaired. I saw a 7" going for about $40 on US eBay just a couple of weeks ago. If people must hear an alternative to the 4 Tops unsurpassable cut, the Supremes album version is much better than Gayle Adams.

Guest Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 To be honest I like it, Not worth that money but, thats up to the person who's paying for it, But I think it's a good dancer. Mischief (not loged in) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest in town Mikey Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Definetly agree the 4 tops cant be beaten, but people buy records for all sorts of reasons ie completing a collection of all the artists releases, or an entire label etc. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest micksmith Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 OFFERS INVITED FOR MY MINT UK DEMO BEFORE I TAKE IT TO CLEETHORPES. JUST THINK WHAT BULLSHIT HE COULD SAY ABOUT THIS-ON THE LINES OF "SUPER RARE UK DEMO-NEVER HAD ONE FOR SALE"-NOT IN 30-YEARS OR IS THAT ANOTHER DEALER I'M THINKING OF. PS WILL TAKE TRADES-SOLID OLDIES PLEASE. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Simon T Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 -NEVER HAD ONE FOR SALE"-NOT IN 30-YEARS That's has made me laugh! Any body else got any northern dealer's cliches to share? My favourite is "recommend". I always think this translates as "it's shite and that's why you've never heard of it, and why I can't get rid of it! Here's my effort at a sales pitch: Just got a mint copy of Eamon's northern rarity 'I Don't Want You Back' from the bargain bin in HMV; my first copy in over thirty years of dealing! Filling the floors up & down the country. £2 now, but what price in 20 year time?! Just think of all those jam sandwiches you'll be able to swap it for in your nursing home!!!

Guest Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Other dealer cliches, The sexual undertone "A Hard One" or "Could Go Big" and the toilet humour "A Floater" Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest in town Mikey Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Quality post John. How about: Writing on label - fucking brat of a kid went mental in my record box with a crayon. Top class RnB - Rock n Roll Out of left field - shite, sounds like the crew were on acid Personal fave - If I sell this the missus will let me have a jump.
