Girdwoodinc Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) What's the going rate for an original Bobby Kline- Say Something Nice to Me (MB Records) Edited March 9, 2017 by R Soul
Frankie Crocker Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 You are looking at an outlay of well over £1,000. A nice NM copy would fetch £1,500 at auction whilst an EX copy might cost £1,250 in a cash deal. A great record, hugely in demand and very difficult to get hold of. Was pressed up with labels reversed so some copies are OK whilst others are flawed, the latter may be discounted by £100-200 depending on the seller.
Stanley Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 i know your wrong ,its now £2k for near mint ..i,ve sold 2 copies both for 1500 and 1600 in near mint. over 1 year ago....i,m not an authority on this but need to advise as best as i can .
Dave Pinch Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 its gone up to £2500 in its time.... it worth nearer 1500 tho 2

Lfcjunkie Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Sold my Bobby Kline to Carl Willingham in '96...it paid my mortgage for the month we'd just moved and first payment was due but the construction firm I was working for went under owing 3 weeks wages ..I was skint so it had to go...at the time my brother,& Stuart Marshall John Purvis and myself was promoting Soul nights at the Devonshire Hotel in Skipton N. Yorkshire. ..one particular night ...John Powney. .Mark Bicknell. (whom were guesting for us) had their Bobby Kline 45s with them...along with my copy there was 3 copies in the same backroom of the Dev...wonder what chances that happening now along with the fact that there wouldn't have been pennies paid out for all 3 copies compared to now...hell if Derek Pearson was on that night there'd have been 4 in the room!!...I'm mortgage free now and often think what may have happened if I hadn't parted with it...still ...wouldn't mind one though. ..Bobby Kline that is...

VG++ $2550 / £1877 Sept 16 VG+ $1875 / £1485 Jan 17 . £1661 April 16 You might get one with the labels the wrong way round a bit cheaper ? 1

Winsford Soul Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Remember being offered one a few year's ago for £800. Unfortunately didn't have that sort of spare spending money in those days. Great record. Sure I remember it way back in time costing £400 Steve

It did look nice as well plus it was a good quality looking vinyl press. Have you still got it ? An old local friend now living in Stockport Steve Foran, I know he has one
