I take it it is not an Italian release then?

[Benji]

auction already pulled as it seems. what was it?

[John A]

Its still there for me?? Barbara Mcnair on a lookalike R/W thingy

[Diggin' Dave]

The seller also 'forgot' to indicate that the flipside on this issue is Tammi Terrell - Tears... which rules out the slight chance that he might have mistakenly though he was selling an original.

How do they get away with it!!

[Steve Plumb]

I've heard today of a mate who just bought a Ringleaders 'original' for £150 on ebay - turned up with M-Pac labels stuck over a Stardust 45

Fookin unbelievable how anyone can think they can get away with stuff like this and the above?????????

[p0stscript]

100% bootleg

it was how the were skirting around the issue...

[Guest allnightandy]

One of the bidders has a feedback score of nearly 2500 another 800+ they really should know better !

[Guest allnightandy]

Made in Italy

The Italian government has taken to bootlegging to pay off their deficit !

[Guest allnightandy]

Now at $112 and counting ! F***ing ridiculous !

My ebay account expired two years ago

Why doesn't someone put a really high bid on it

win it then refuse to pay because it's a bootleg ? That would also highlight it to Ebay !

[Guest]

£132.00.....

£83.66p what a joke !

[p0stscript]

somebody was frantic to get it looking at the last bids.

[Guest Perception]

I would have thought anyone willing to pay $132 for it, would know what the original should look like!

These people should do there homework before throwing there money about, they almost deserve to win it!

I don't collect UK but even I can tell it is not an original.

The print used on the title is wrong, they didn't use that kind of print on UK TMG records!

I would have thought anyone willing to pay £132 for it, would know what the original should look like!

Sometimes a little education can be expensive ! LoL

I'd rather have bought the one that was in two pieces !

At least it was original !

[Swifty]

I sent the seller an e-mail saying this is not an original and I'm doing this to save you a lot of bother & the clue is 'MADE IN ITALY !!'

no response though

Swifty

p.s. what I don't understand is if people are willing to pay that much for a record then you would pressume they actually know what they're on about. Still struggle to get above £20 for descent originals in good nick!

the collecting world has gone fooking barmy :yes:

[Guest Matt Male]

I've reported him for spelling you're wrong. Why do they always make these mistakes? It's on the label ffs!
