Ficklefingers Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 My most, only recently realised, fortuitous purchase was actually a 'non-purchase' in that in the same sleeve as an (ordered & expected) blue Quaint release (part of a two-tiered 'bulk' purchase of mainly late 50's/early 60's 45's I negotiated) was another 45 - by the same artist, but on a yellow Quaint... need I mention that the artist in question is one Mr Otis Lee and the coveted 'Hard Road..' The irony of this particular pleasant suprise? I made the purchase 5 years ago!! and (due mainly to two house moves and the fact my 'record room' became such only once it'd finished it's service as the 'box room') they remained in their 'as arrived' state until I finally managed to get access to all my loverly stashed (& some completely forgotten) 45's and begin going through them (still not completed as we speak!) to achieve some sense & order, once more, to my treasured play boxes. At the other end of the spectrum, I could also admit to the mistake made in buying a piece based on a 'published' price - only to discover (after not being able to fathom out why I secured it so easily) that the 'published' price I used for reference was, in fact, a printing error... with an extra nought included!! I might just as well have driven down the road with my window wide open, chucking £20 notes out as I travelled! End result would've been the same! Oh those wonderful lessons in life thrown at us when we least expect them.. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
