Sold my copy about 10 years ago to a Japanese guy (much to the disappointment of several UK collectors). Never really did it for me, and I thought £1000 at the time was a decent price, little did I know!

BASICALLY IF THERE HAD BEEN ONLY ONE DESPERADO INVOLVED INSTEAD OF TWO IT WOULD HAVE SOLD FOR 3'600 USD, THINK THE WINNER, THO PROBABLY ELATED THAT HE GOT THE RECORD STILL MAYBE WISHED HE COULD HAVE GOT IT FOR HALF PRICE.

I can remember being very dissapointed when hearing this for the first time after all the hype it gets....

but I didn stick it in my watched items just to see how much it would sell for. :thumbsup:

yeah no way you bought it Ted...it cost more than £100. :no: you'd have wanted it for £40 :thumbsup::yes:

would this buyer have glasses and hail from new york?!

Yes. I would like to know though who the second high bidder was :thumbsup: Seeing the winner and high bidder were the only ones willing and able to bridge the gap between 3.500,- USD and the winning price range of about 7.400,- USD...if it wouldn`t have been for those two high bidders the price would have been 3.500,- USD and we wouldn`t be discussing it at all.

yes, flip is a good club funk tune. it is staying in the USA, and whether you rate the tune(s) or not, the rarity is proven.

Bidder lists don't register snipes that go in during the last few seconds, where the current price has already exceeded the snipe. So like a lot of these big auctions, there were probably quite a few more fairly high bids that didn't go through.

thats true and there could have been 5 snipes........... but then again there could have been none and its just speculation and not fact
