yeah that was actually a really bad judgement on price by me, but I remembered not being able to sell a white demo for ages and eventually reduced it to £75, I actually thought maybe £125 on the issue but I needed to shift it sharpish so that's why I stuck £90 on it. Stupid really, but wasn't sure of the demand anymore.

I would'nt say you were stupid Pete. It's nearly impossible to accurately gauge what a record is worth for a quick sale (obvious titles excepted). Popsike is next to useless and E-bay is too hit and miss. As you said, you needed to sell it and priced it accordingly.

Best,

Dave
