How many UK records go for more than a grand?
Martin Phillips Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 It's going nuts.The Eptones A love that's real is currently around 1500 dollars.Couple of weeks or so ago the Tony Borders record on Quinvy can't remember the title off the top of my head topped 1300 dollars roughly 1000 pounds.During the summer an equally good copy fetched 300 dollars or thereabouts!!!! 1

Tomangoes Posted December 1, 2020 Posted December 1, 2020 Not that many of us will be in this position....but if you have 100,000 euros in a citibank account, they will charge you for holding it. Thats right, no interest, just a cost for holding. Soo...investing in vinyl may well be a good hedge if you got a few Bob or get an inheritance... Prices do seem to be moving up constantly. Ed

Stanley Posted December 1, 2020 Posted December 1, 2020 (edited) tony middleton polydor uk issue is a rare piece indeed and i,m not surprised by its final auction price. i myself have a lovely uk polydor red and white demo copy signed by tony middleton ....some argue that it defaces the label but signed by the artist ,that is rare.what value on this i wonder.

Elvis and the beatles etc signed stuff really does bump up the price. Last time I was in nu yak, in Jan this year, Tony was playing at a mid town hotel. Not sure he has that big a following outside our world. As long as its not personal, it might appeal to artist collectors more than an unsigned copy. Ed

Winsford Soul Posted December 2, 2020 Posted December 2, 2020 I have spoken to quite a few uk collectors over the years regarding the prices not reflecting the quality and rarity of British stuff is it finally possible that the soul collectors of only US have woken up to the fact ? Never bothered to collect one or the other if I liked it I bought it on whatever format. Uk. or US was available to me. 1
