But you can buy it off discogs for less than £100... lol, I appreciate that's the promo copy though

Yeah, I was pretty sure that the bidders on that could easily just go on over to discogs and pick up a NM copy of that version for 25 USD (or an issue for 5).  

The Carolina Soul auctions seem to drive people to madness, I often see people paying top dollar or more for G copies of stuff in those auctions. Admittedly CS grades conservatively, but still.

^^ you are making the assumption they know what Discogs is, they probably don't

Well I have to admit to paying over the odds for some italo house tunes, in the early 2000's, before I was aware of the site. Having said that I would have never found most of them without the sellers advice.

I kinda referred to this phenomena back in February in relation to a few regular sellers on EBay. 

You had dealings with CS ?  How conservative are his gradings ? A VG+ is M- ?

Just interested as I tend to ignore auctions unless VG++ or M-.

Thanks.

I saw this recently   

 

Spyder Turner I Cant Make It Anymore £100.00 SOLD

 

No mention of it being a Demo so it must be a straight issue.

 

Surely not, I don't even think JM could get that much for it.

Seen an issue sell on ebay last year for £92, Crazy prices

Fing abart eeeebay is......if sold at auction, it reflects demand.

 

You can't put a value on such a great record based on 1979 prices... 

 

We've all paid a quid for it, but anybody hearing this first time would pay a ton for it no probs.

How about somebody creating ' compare the Northern Soul original record price.com?

 

Auctions can make folks bid extreme prices, especially when you just got to have it! 

 

Best one I saw was a Ricky Hatton fan who bid over £1000 for a pair of boxing gloves that should have been worn, but weren't worn against Mayweather.

 

He sobered up quickly when it comes to paying for them a hour later...
