I think its a truly great record, yes it went for a ridiculously high price, I couldn't believe it. but you get trust and assurance from buying from john. IMHO

I used to leave these in the rack on Bradford market, didnt like it then and still dont.

 

Second that. That stall used to groan from the weight of those Broadways 7"s. The world has gone crazy.....this has always been a £1 record in my book.

Doesn't it make you think that there may be a bit of Shill bidding going on sometimes when you see these cheap records selling at ridiculous prices?
There's a couple I've seen lately and thought that something isn't right, like the Sheila Anthony - Livin in love on Route up to £67.50 with 4 days to go that's on there now.
Sorry should point out I mean on eBay not JMs auctions.

Trust and assurance that you've paid way, way over the top for very common record and that people think you're daft. Money well spent.

In the case of Sheila Anthony, I absolutely agree with you, something not right there on Ebay

What 216 pounds worth of trust and assurance?

Ridiculous, the worlds gone mad - it'd be good if the person who bought it would come on here and explain why he thinks its a good idea to pay over £200 for a £30 record…. :huh:

This is actually one of my all time favourites.... I was after a mint copy on ebay a few weeks back and lost the auction in the last seconds for under £40. I really do wonder who pays these premium prices....? Maybe there are a lot of Japanese guys who bid on the Manship auctions, as I know a lot of Japanese collectors (not just of records) by UK standards have very deep pockets.....

Manship mania. Plain tune finally has it's day and value spirals. Invest now in the Royalettes, the next big MGM sound. Sell April Stevens, it's had it's day. Hold Dotty Cambridge, it might go big (price wise) one day. Why buy stocks and shares when you can speculate on labels. MGM is the new Shrine so bid accordingly wannabe DJ's...Off to the footie now...
