Wheelsville1 Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 I noticed that this sold on Tim Browns auction site yesterday for £3450.Has somebody paid over the odds or is it now the going rate? Chris.
Chalky Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 Kin ell that’s barmy. I’d have said a grand tops.

Bo Diddley Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 Maybe the bidder didn't realise how Tim's auction works and submitted one giant "hail mary" bid. Whatever you bid is the amount you'll pay. Not like eBay or say JM auction which takes you just one increment above the second highest bidder. So, the second highest bidder on this could have been £1,800. Just a thought and I maybe way off. If I was spending that sort of cash I'd take a bit of time to understand the system. 3
Solidsoul Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 Got mine from a well known record dealer, around the late 1980's. He had found several copies and they were £10 each! But it wasn't well known then!
Baz Atkinson Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 It is a ludicrous amount of money for a played out oldie that in essence is not even rare ? Great record so played out but, just hope the buyer fully understood the bid system .
Rhino Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 Seen one change hands for £3000 but price these days are crazy in my opinion especially on oldies

Winsford Soul Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 And here's me thinking it was about £300 . 1

Its one of those records that as you know, can be heard most places and has been around for a long time, not one that I have ever taken any interest in whatsoever hence me saying £300 . 2
Vadnochka Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Adey Pearce - £12 on a sales list /tape ? - mid 90's - almost rang him about it but decided otherwise - got mine from JM for @ £30 - played it as an ender at the Brit on numerous occasions during that period. But £3k + madness - but that's how it's going

It was relatively unknown, apart from a few tape swoppers then!
