Funny how I can't sell my Jackie Edwards and Melvena Allen for £60 the pair, they made over £600 when auctioned!

So they weren't rare in the first place.

Neither is the Spaniels Pete

Im suggesting a random record here- Lets Groove together - Our ladies of soul- on Kelton 

Lets just say hypothetically that John puts it on his auction next week - I bet you someone would have one on here for offers pretty soon after or at an inflated price! Its just bloody nonsense IMO!

I know they would Steve.  Can't blame them for trying, but what about the sheep and the mugs who pay the inflated prices though?

Reminds me of when that well know £3 record "Stanky" went big, people who wouldn't have touched it with a bargepole when it was £3 suddenly had it on their wants lists.

hi Pete 

 

Found STANKY at a car boot for a quid  and then traded it for a 100 quids worth of records  :wicked:

Gotta say this is the sort of thing i like to read about, as i trawl car boots / junk shops / charity shops / garage & jumble sales and spend a lot of time doing so,

Dosent happen that often nowadays and is getting very little profit or records for keeping, Am i wasting my time ??

 

Answer = No i still enjoy the thril of the hunt.

I have had quite a few booty and charity shop finds, one of my most recent is 'The Gamble Record Allstars' album which I got for a fiver, valued at £50, in Mint cond' too.

I think there is still stuff out there if you keep looking, patience is a virtue though, cos you need a lot.

Agree as my last big one was Bob Marley & Wailers, Young soul rebels on first upsetter books at £100, 

Cost me the extortionate sum of 50p about a month ago.

The power of being played out.......or rather people waiting for someone else to tell em it,s O.K.....frightened to do it for themselves,it,s easier when someone else does it....."OH IS THAT GETTING PLAYED"    better get a copy :thumbsup:  :yes:  :glare:

Going a little off topic here but, I've got this on a promo. The label on the flip side has "Featuring: Poogie Hudson" instead of Pookie Hudson.

Instead of listing Carter and Hudson as the writers, they have Noble, Campbell,Connolly and Vallee who did write a song named "Goodnight

Sweetheart" but this isn't that song.

    Do all copies have this wrong info on the B side or is it only the promos?

The stanky price explosion was down to Fred Krol digging it out one night at Burnley and giving it a spin. There was a mass stampede for the stage, and by the next day all the dealers had been bought out. I don't think it was ever played again at Burnley and I think Fred was quite embarrassed by it all.

Fair to say ,Stanky caused a stink then Phil :)

Yes but we love to see a record in our collection go for decent money and the downside - One you paid decent money for go for a lot less!!

I think John has had some fantastic stuff through in the last few weeks - those Shrines were the stuff to dream of and the Gwen Owens...but like you say some other stuff that you think WHAT!!! an auction item NEVER??

Keeps the forums alive eh!

Surprised Daryl Pediford on Kryptonite has made it to auction. Great record but was imported in quantity by Record Corner and others as a new release.

Unless the person who sells on here is called Manship, then they should put it up for 30 quid or whatever.

 

A record is a record. A reputation is a reputation. To confuse the two means you're a bit of a tit.

Yes they are all like that Trojan cover with Upsetter record, The re release was with a trojan label

The thing is, many people arnt aware of these records until they are played out, which then inflates the price, many collectors on here (my self included on occasion), just assume these records are known & in a lot of cases they arnt....nothing new though, has happened since forever & will continue....thats why we dig innit !!!.
