Andrea Ko Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 How much do you think it's the right price for the above? I unusually got a copy for very little money (roughly 20£) few years ago... I'm wondering now if mine is a boot although the description said it was an original... https://www.ebay.com/itm/BOBBY-GARRETT-034-My-Little-Girl-034-Mirwood-45-NORTHERN-SOUL-/250940940210?#ht_86wt_1214
Labeat Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 I rate this as still a £25 max record, yet have seen this figure recently between £75 & £125. Right price? ..... well, rub a bottle & ask the Genie 1
Kjw Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Original is styrene with stuck on label (not moulded)
Sammy Seaman Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 sold an original for £80 3weeks ago could have sold it 3times over it went in less then 10min after posting 1
Guest Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 sold an original for £80 3weeks ago could have sold it 3times over it went in less then 10min after postingAnd so it should, it's a brilliant Northern Soul record!It's about time these classic's that have suffered because there were a lot of copies about started getting the recognition they deserve. Finding near mint copies are getting harder to find and the price should reflect this!
45cellar Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 The only way to obtain "MY LITTLE GIRL" on a Mirwood 45 is via the STOCK COPY Here's the DEMO and STOCK COPY for 5511 www.popsike.com STYRENE Originals 1
Chris Turnbull Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 I got a mint original issue on ebay a couple of years ago for £50, which I thought at the time was fairly pricey but now looks like a bargain - fantastic record as well 1
Guest Aaron Darcy Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) I rate this as still a £25 max record, yet have seen this figure recently between £75 & £125. Right price? ..... well, rub a bottle & ask the Genie It was never a big tune back in the day and probably around £2 or even less but in recent time all the handbaggers think its rare hence the price rise , not bad record tho Edited April 11, 2015 by Aaron Darcy

Where have all the millions of copies gone.... pinned on walls, retro shaped ornaments? Of course in reality they are stashed in collections, but why this particular (good) oldie can command such a high fee i don't know, is this an indicator of any oldie, if so, some collectors must be sat on goldmines!
Mick Holdsworth Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 https://www.ebay.com/itm/BOBBY-GARRETT-034-My-Little-Girl-034-Mirwood-45-NORTHERN-SOUL-/250940940210?#ht_86wt_1214 As a side point, anyone know how come we can still see some very old eBay listings: the one on this page is from Dec 2011 ? I've seen it a few times in the past, but generally they all expire after a few many months. Cheers Mick
Andrea Ko Posted April 11, 2015 Author Posted April 11, 2015 I don't know ho it works with ebay old pages. I keep paypal invoices I got that link from there. My copy is styrene and the numbers on the run out are scratched 2902 the label appears exactly like this I cannot believe that now it's going for 102 gbp with still days to go.... https://www.ebay.it/itm/BOBBY-GARRETT-MY-LITTLE-GIRL-BIG-BROTHER-MIRWOOD-/361258663437?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item541cb1be0d
Paul R Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 As another side point, when this was getting some spins at Wigan around 74/75, probably in Mr Ms, I found half a dozen of the B&C, Bob & Earls LPs which have the vocal on for about 89p each. They sold easily at the casino for a fiver each. Pretty good money for then. Paul
Dobber Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 the northern soul scene was built on quality up beat tunes like this one,its no surprize that they have disapeared into collections since the early 70's,and as for value,this tune is as deserving a decent price tag as any other quality oldies that achieve 300 quid+ on a daily basis,that arent even as rare! i have to say that 100 quid for a stand out tune seems like bugga all these days,mind you i could spend that 100 quid on a bootleg of salvadors..haha

Paul On my 3rd copy of this album now worn the other 2 out, my little girl has got to be in my top 5 tunes, used to sing to my daughter when she was little

Ian Parker Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Heres my copy... The numbers : 60709 scratched in run out. ring wear aside, the audio on this is exceptional
