Guest allnightandy Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) This is getting beyond a joke these records have the cheapest tacky labels so far and it looks like this guy has just set up his own pressing plant I hope he has permission to press these records if not then i hope he has better lawyers than Berry Gordy as at least one of his records is a Motown Cut Gloria Jones Tainted Love Must be the most repressed ? Booted record in history yet there are no end of idiots who will bid for it https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gloria-Jones-Tainted-Love-/320835247364?pt=UK_Records&hash=item4ab3455d04 God When will it end ?

Guest souljack Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 I thought his Yum Yums looked genuine but the strange thing is No paypal just postal orders or cheques i don't think you have any come back with ebay if you don't use paypal i thought he might collect the money and run ? as i say some of these records look genuine ? his phone number is a Manchester number Someone should give him a bell ! Just checked his feedback he has not been active for a full 12 months ? ive bought records from him in the past and always genuine article never had any problems with the guy
Guest allnightandy Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 ive bought records from him in the past and always genuine article never had any problems with the guy WoW ! i thought they looked genuine he's taking a risk starting them at 99p as i think it costs you to withdrawer an item ?

I sold Nabay for £40 last week. Morris Chestnut demo, £25. Betty Boo demo £30. So most are half those ebay prices and still didn't sell.

How it can be classed as any type of soul is beyond me. I sent a message to the seller suggesting he uses those ear tampons to clear the wax out.

That is actually quite tough to find on Grapevine, I'd say £25 was the right price.
Glynthornhill Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 sold the Dena Barnes issue on Grapevine for £65 last year - and had over five people requesting for it after sale - is obviously one of the rare issues ....
Pete S Posted February 5, 2012 Author Posted February 5, 2012 sold the Dena Barnes issue on Grapevine for £65 last year - and had over five people requesting for it after sale - is obviously one of the rare issues .... Wow, result! I'd still only value it at £25 though! I don't think ANY Grapevine is worth more than £50 - and I have them all.
Guest allnightandy Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 I've just seen so many of these grapevine pressings over the years i have always looked at them as records anybody can buy as a reissue thus i thought they were only worth a couple of quid funny old game this record collecting ?
Glynthornhill Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Sold a Sam Williams demo for £100 , Edward Hamilton demo for £65 ........ and would not class Betty Boo as a ' pressing ' as its the only original format along with Grapevine album for collecting the previously unreleased track.
Guest Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Have you seen the price of the Tommy Navaro????? still an hour to go. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190634187316?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Ian Dewhirst Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Mmmm. 18 copies of Greg Perry "It Takes Heart" 12" listed on Discogs with the average price being somewhere between £5-10:- https://www.discogs.com/sell/list?release_id=439429&ev=rb And the winner @ approximately 1000% uplift on the normal price is: https://www.discogs.com/buy/Vinyl/Greg-Perry-It-Takes-Heart/48748077?ev=bp_rel_det $125 is surely overdoing it a bit isn't it?

ManilaSoul Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 https://www.ebay.co.u...=item2a1825adcf If Stardust is legit then this Kenny Carter 'whats that on your finger' must be worth having as there's no other vinyl release? I bought it because of this no release on 45 I'm aware of though I thought Kent might have put it out as it is on their CD. Be interested to hear Ady's views on it didn't he find it in the RCA vaults (Pied Piper productions?). Actually after the Tempest on Stardust for the same reason - mind you hardly ever see the LP of that - mind you not for 78 quid or whatever it was!
ManilaSoul Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 This Original Don Thomas on Blue VJ LOL I have messaged him the errors of his ways see if he removes it https://www.ebay.co.u...=item256b1e3de7 he is also selling loads of UK motown demo's all over priced like this one that books at £22 https://www.ebay.co.u...=item256b27d1ec Was this a legit 2nd issue (Purple or pink being the 'proper' one - memeory fading!)
Guest allnightandy Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Was this a legit 2nd issue (Purple or pink being the 'proper' one - memeory fading!) Not sure on the legalities of it but i do know it's not original there are people here who will know all the details though !
ManilaSoul Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 I've just seen so many of these grapevine pressings over the years i have always looked at them as records anybody can buy as a reissue thus i thought they were only worth a couple of quid funny old game this record collecting ? I can relate to that as feel the same way..though I suppose the Narbay is worth a few quid considering the price of the US orig. Milton Wright I must belong to you must be good value though at 6 -8 quid considering its the only legit release? I know it came out on something else but weren't they just boots given to DJ's to play?
ManilaSoul Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 This !

Had to pay 23 quid ($36) for an Inferno Copy of Frank Beverly If that's what you wanted (hoping for a tenner!) ...yet got a copy of Al Gardeners Sweet Baby (Googa Mooga - great name!) and Willie Hightower for US $30 a peice, swings and roundabouts.
Benji Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 I bought it because of this no release on 45 I'm aware of though I thought Kent might have put it out as it is on their CD.

Actually after the Tempest on Stardust for the same reason - mind you hardly ever see the LP of that - mind you not for 78 quid or whatever it was! Stardust is a bootleg label so you might get yourself a carver, Tempests one side, Willie Kendricks the other. Saves you money.
