Wonder if anyone has any estimates on what what this will finish up at?
Paul Anka-When we get there - UK RCA Victor Blue/Green Demo.
Out of my price range no doubt

I know I sold one to a friend on here for £75 a couple of years ago.  It went big a week later 

Sold one for 150 and a ketty lester for 100,then started collectin british bout 6 mths later  .

Think I'll go for a £200 mark?? But could go silly cos I sold a Black US copy a few months ago for £135, so in context I would say the UK original demo would be worth quite a bit more.

I think Agent Smith was chuffed with it though, if I remember it looked like it had been manufactured that day.

Didn't even know it came out on british

Handsome looking record.

Does nobody read descriptions and listen to sound files?

 

It's knackered.

Heard worse played out. Bet it still fetches good money though, 3 bids, £51 already with nearly 9 days to go.

I read it and listened. Unfortunately it seems to play the correct record.

Always, liked this, and Can't Help Loving You, both timeless pop/soul IMO.

Pretty fly for a white guy!

 

Edit: just as a matter of interest, my internet network at home is called 'Pretty Fly For A Wi-Fi' just to impress my neighbours

The seller is really strict with gradings. I'd say his FAIR is probably most people's VG+...

Bought a UK issue for £10 from Record Collector when "blue eyed soul" didn't sell 10 years ago.

Don't care, this track swings.......

Good luck to the selller.

Out of curiosity what does the US demo go for now?

Played to death over the past 3 - 4 Years.  KIlled it and now so fed up of hearing it. If I smoked it would be a good time for a fag but I don't so I can't !!

As a British release it is scarce....as a Northern thang it is after my time and does not compare to "I Can't Help Loving You".......just thought i'd give this thread a bit more mileage.....and i'm bored!

Up to £103 with over 6 days to go!

Never done it for me but each to their own.  Its up there with The Majestics for me. Never really understood where it fits.  I always thought it was just me because it packs the floor when its played.  I sometime think I keep turning up on the wrong night !!

Not just your opinion by the way !!

sold my mint uk issue for £30 several years ago..but hey ho....the cash was put towards some proper stuff

To be honest I thought it may go for a bit more than that.

Me too - thought 175

Shouldn't of really been more than a ton. Especially today with prices dropping on the whole.

 

UK issue is much harder to find not mashed nevertheless.

 

UK Demo is more common I think. Seen more of them than issue's anyway...about 4 to 1 more.

To be fare it has had a bit  of a second wind of late.

It has had for the last 2 years I think in certain parts of the country.

 

I remember a year or two ago Pete sold one for £100 on here. I know cause I had the issue and was pondering on selling that and didn't know what to put on it.

Was that an issue?  I forgot all about that.

Yeah £122, not as much as i got for my black US issue a few months back at £132. I would have thought more to be honest but hey? someone got a bargain, or did they??

So is the same gonna happen to 'As if there were no tomorrow'?
C'mon, you know you all love it
Just wondered if it's going to go as big as 'when we get there'? Who knows? Not I.

C'mon, you know it's terrible tune that should only be played when all the soul records have been smashed to pieces and buried deep in an oceanic trench.

 

Excellent description. Couldn't put it better myself....

No Pete.

 

You had a demo for sale at the time but I think you had an issue a week or two later.

LOL!! Took the bait and landed!!
