That's probable/realistic current value against final sale price. Yeah I know it's only worth what someone is willing to pay, but is it the only outlet for rare vinyl?

Of course I hope I'm completely wrong link Just a thought, consider that Northern Soul has always been driven by rarity, the day may past went even none-soul collectors move into the market place. I dare say there are already collectors out there who span numerous types of music collecting rare pieces. Remember the 45 is a piece of art and look what some pictures make at auction many years after the were originally created. Thare may be even another type of collector out there who may not like or even be interested in the history of the record other than it one of only 3 known copies. You can just imagine them showing their trophies to rich firends at some upper class dinner party. It's a game of chance, which many got wrong in the 80's.

I exclude from that a number who obviously are....but I sense a number are purely "speculating" on an investment, and probably do the same with "rare" music of other genres. It will be interesting though, and a number of very good points have been made on this thread already.

Moving on....I am surprised that rare soul hasn't featured more on all of these "Lifestyle TV channels" with the likes of "Boot Fair trampledown", "David Dickinson" and the like telling us to look in "Granny's attic" for her old records - I am sure it will come when they get bored with Pottery and cheap art Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The new programme should be interesting if nothing else (and not just for the records), and I agree that we don't want our records "languishing" in picture frames in non soul collector circles; it does make for interesting times though.

Sweeney Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 An interesting thread. On one hand I'm slightly amused at the high prices that items sell for on Manship's auctions, but if I was using Manship to sell a big ticket item I'd be delighted to get the sort of prices you see realised, but that's market forces for you I suppose. I personally believe that people on the Northern scene are only too happy to pay ridiculous prices for records - it's not the "average joe" responsible for the elevation of relatively easy records like Brown Sugar, Ace Spectrum, The Futures etc. it's people on the scene. "Outsiders" don't need to hype up record prices. There's a real kudos attached to the "rare" record. People think it's big or clever to pay big money for 45s on the Northern Soul scene. People love to go and hear DJs with expensive records. Most of those DJs for one reason or another can afford to pay thousands for records, very few people are actually innovating, searching for, and/or popularising records, (Butch comes to mind as one of those people). This fact - allied with the advancing average age and burgeoning virtual scene are going to be eventually responsible for the death of the scene. How many of the people coming into the scene in their twenties or so can afford to compete in financial terms when anything decent costs an arm and a leg? How many of the so-called super-rarities would even be played if they were a tenner? few, probably, but people kid themselves that they're worth the money, a sort of vinyl emperor's new clothes, if you like. Do the esteemed members of this forum remember the "scandal" of the Four Vandals? How many "Superstar DJs" were happy to pay big money to own this "amazing rarity"? How many punters convinced themselves that they remembered it from The Mecca? How many cloth-eared fools couldn't tell it was a poorly executed fake? I laughed like a drain when I first saw a label scan - it was so obviously not a real record. Laughed even harder when I heard the record folk were creaming themselves over - let's not forget it used to fill dancefloors! As for a "Law" to stop non-soul people spending ridiculous money on records - please! get a grip! If people want to spend hundreds or even thousands on average records I paid a couple of quid for, I - and I guess most people on this board would only be too delighted to sell. An example - one of my own personal holy grails was a copy of Billy Hambric - This is My Prayer on Fury. A deep soul masterpiece. My brother bought one many moons ago, and I've been after it since. Many years of searching didn't manage to bring one out of the woodwork. Didn't see one until last week, when I bought it for the princely sum of a tenner. I've seen more copies of the Del-Larks, Tolbert, Utopias (THIS is played as a Northern record for christ sakes!) for sale than that record. Go figure. Let's concentrate on quality rather than rarity, people. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 This has been the finest thread on Soul Source in ages, so many great points about the price of records and the future of collecting. Fascinated that "Non- Soul" types are looking at rare soul vinyl as a commodity, even though I loathe the suggestion, I'm afraid that the practice may be more common place than "I" originally thought. As for selling my own collection when I am old and wizened, Jesus, not a cats in hells chance. I'd rather get buried with the "fiendish hounds" than let someone with "Coin" get them the easy way. Good God I've scrimped and been brought to my knees chasing these wretched objects for a quarter of a century, and that's just me, I know many, many others with far more formidable collections and would like to believe they feel the same as me. Totally agree though that in the future when "Meltdown" approaches that I for one may be able to land a few "Holy Grails", and I could care less if the "Scene" is dead and buried, always been happy to listen at home alone..................

I've seen more copies of the Del-Larks, Tolbert, Utopias (THIS is played as a Northern record for christ sakes!) for sale than that record. Go figure. link One reason for that could well be that many dealers wouldn`t care to list some un- or semiknown 10 to 20 UKP records as they assume there is no demand for them. There is a vast number of tunes that you indeed very rarely see up for sale anywhere. When they have become "envogue" you then suddenly seem to find them anywhere. Recent example springs to mind in the shape of Chyvonne Scott on Alto...I was after that for years, found one, played it out, years went by and the record has somehow become "indemand", sells now for 100 UKP and you can get it nearly everywhere.

Johnny Watson, 7 Wonders of the World, Vandals, Jeannie & Valaquons, David Rhodes, and a few records I've seen on E-bay recently that have enough gloss on the vinyl for the average male to safely use as a substiture for a shaving mirror without fear of "bladeslip". I remember one collector showing me one of the aforementioned, which he'd just "shelled out" a relatively serious wedge for, and looking totally deflated when being told it wasn't "real". I think he pretty much gave up the ghost after that. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
