Davey S Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 And the next rocket to lift off The Sweets - Something about my baby . 2
Marty57 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Without trying to bump the price up any one like to guess how much its gonna go for ? M- too . Should put a couple of quid on my 70tys press anyhow !
Tomangoes Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 A horse, a horse, my Kingdom for a horse... A rare tune, a rare tune, my pension for a rare tune. Nowt much changes does it:) Ed
Winsford Soul Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 How come most of the good or better tunes are the rarest one's. Would love to hear people's opinions Steve 1
Guest Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 I thought it was an unwritten rule not to talk about sales until they are completed? Maybe spoil someone's sale/price! Maybe doesn't matter anymore?

Strider Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Just sold my M- copy a month ago no names or price but happy with the price i got and it gone to a good home. but i suspect this may go silly.
Davey S Posted March 25, 2019 Author Posted March 25, 2019 It's collecters elite prepared to pay any price to bring it home . Would be nice to be able too .
Speedlimit Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Never mind saving my money for the day the scene disappears up it's own backside Which won't be long by all accounts then you pounce like a tiger 1

Would love to hear people's opinions Steve I think your premise is incorrect. "Agent OO Soul" or "You've been cheating" are just as good musically as the Sweets. Now if you had said how come every record I want appears to be very rare and expensive I'd agree. 6

If there was only 8 known copies of "Don't Be Sore At Me" The Parliaments on Revilot, it would be always talked about! Pictures of it in it's birth sleeve in collectors price guides. Tales of it causing dance floor gridlock and dance floor mayhem, holy grails and collectors frenzy, but because it's easily obtainable it's never mentioned! Edited March 25, 2019 by Guest

Len Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 I'm gonna have a punt on the auction for 'The Sweets' with the thinking that most people will think there's no chance, so won't bother bidding Not got a clue what it's worth in today's market (Yeh I know, what I am prepared to pay) Can't see my bid winning, but auctions can surprise. BEAUTIFUL tune. Len 3
Davey S Posted March 25, 2019 Author Posted March 25, 2019 Let's have a guess then the one within 50 quid of the final price is the winner. £2450.
Popular Post Frankie Crocker Posted March 25, 2019 Popular Post Posted March 25, 2019 Who is this Manship guy? Is he new to the auction business? The top side is ‘Satisfy Me Baby’ - a great up-tempo track. The winner of the record will be in for a treat when they flip it over from the slow side. 4

I know, he seems to have sprung up from nowhere.... Anybody would think he has wrote a book or two on the subject of prices, owned a record shop, and DJd at Cleethorpes back in the day. Probably makes pork pies in his day job, coming from Melton Mobray:) Ed 2

Apart from a few rich ones with more money than sense most collectors use their common sense. Anyone could have offered say £75 for this prior to the auction and snagged a copy.

I agree - I really don't think it's going to stop, rare soul is like rare Jazz now, it's a worldwide thing with younger generations getting into it if you see a rare record you want and can afford, and there's limited copies available, buy the bloody thing

No records this time. Steve Very public spirited handing over 20% VAT to spreadsheet Phil on that new car and camera. Average depreciation is 50 % over 3 years on a new standard car, when you come to sell or trade. 25% tax free lump sum is only tax free if you don't spend it! The vultures get it all back in the end!

Speedlimit Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 Bloody hell £250 for a record by a guy from stapleford Nottingham .

Yes but it sounded great in Wigan's Mr M's at 4am in the morning, circa mid 70's. The dance floor rammed, and the walls running with condensation from the heat of dance floor fever! Can you imagine the atmosphere in Mr M's when those opening bars of "A Little Bit Hurt" came on!!! Edited March 28, 2019 by Guest
Speedlimit Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Yep started my love affair with the scene two years before and as stated it was dancefloor dynamite at the time

Benji Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 I guess it's pretty save to assume that only UK bidder are involved in auctions of UK 45s. Unless it's a UK only tune. Which JC isn't. I never heard of anyone outside UK collecting UK 45s.
