Sebastian Posted December 12, 2008 Author Posted December 12, 2008 There's about 3 days left on these auctions.
Ernie Andrews Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Sebastien - Your in the wrong section- Should this not be in the ebay section? Mind you fancy a couple of these and cant get access to ebay at work. Did you not post them in this section with prices or offers before you listed them on ebay? Cheers Steve
Sebastian Posted December 12, 2008 Author Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) Sebastien - Your in the wrong section- Should this not be in the ebay section? Thanks for pointing it out, I've posted in the wrong section and didn't notice it until now! Big apologies, I usually always post in the auction section. Any of you moderators: move this thread to the correct section if you feel like it. Mind you fancy a couple of these and cant get access to ebay at work. Did you not post them in this section with prices or offers before you listed them on ebay? Sorry, I don't sell records set sale or for "offers" on forums at all anymore. Why not set up a sniper tool to place a bid for you? That way you will not need to have access to eBay when the auctions end. Edited December 12, 2008 by Sebastian

Sebastian Posted December 15, 2008 Author Posted December 15, 2008 Only about 1-2 hours left on these auctions now. Thanks for looking! :-)
Guest mr_jp Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Only about 1-2 hours left on these auctions now. Thanks for looking! :-) Johnny Watson - I Say I Love You $378.10 = £254.20 what a price I thourght there was supposed to be a credit crunch haha, I missed this for £70 about a month ago dam it.

I can't believe that someone is willing to pay that sort of money for the Johnny Watson record!!! Up until the 2nd Hideaway/Kent CD (federal & king label stuff) came out a few years ago with it on you could regularly by this record for £10 tops. Nice record, but not rare at all. I've had several copies over the years, paid no more than £10 for any of them - shouldn't be more than £30 in today's climate. I would be really interested to know if the person actually pays up for it. EBay gone mad...................yet again!!!!!!!!

I've had several copies over the years, paid no more than £10 for any of them – shouldn't be more than £30 in today's climate. I would be really interested to know if the person actually pays up for it. Obviously I was the person selling this record so might be a bit biased... but you've got to be kidding? Why should that Johnny Watson record sell for £30? Over 60 people had it on their "eBay watch". There's big demand for it and it doesn't turn up for sale often. Those two factors combined usually result in high record prices. And having been included on a very popular recent Kent compilation CD helps as well. It is a rare record despite the fact that you haven't payed more than £10 for any of your copies. The actual rarity of a record usually doesn't become apparent and it doesn't start to fetch big bucks until they've become popular and more people know about them. Judging from the e-mail I recieved just about an hour ago from the buyer, it would be a big surprise if he doesn't pay for it (or the other record he bought!). Ofcourse he will. Almost everyone pays for the stuff they win in eBay auctions. The non-payer ratio is about 5 to 1000 in my experience. Edited December 15, 2008 by Sebastian
Guest stackowax Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Not afraid to say I was one of those bidding quite high on this 45, so if anyone has a spare copy please let me know: mustavrecords@aol.com & you could cash in for xmas!

I've had similar experiences as a seller on Ebay (it was a few years ago now), thought the record was only worth about £25 tops but it actually sold for £75. It was a Little Johnny Taylor 45, which in my opinion isn't rare, but there must have been some demand for it. These comments are only based on my opinion and experiences. I don't believe this record is rare, as I've seen numerous copies over the year's.......you could regularly buy it Beatin Rhythm for a fiver about 5-6 years ago! The reason the price has got so high is the demand that you state in your reply, as you say, probably due to its inclusion on the Kent CD. So in my opinion its the demand that has dictated its price, not its 'rarity'. Cheers Mark

So in my opinion its the demand that has dictated its price, not its 'rarity'. You have a point there, and I agree with you to some extent (I still consider it to be one of the rarest Johnny Guitar Watson 45s though), but those "cheap" copies from 5+ years ago that you speak about have now been snapped up and they are not leaving collections by the look of it. There haven't been many copies offered for sale of this 45 during the past two years. How rare a record actually is seldom plays a big part as far as the price goes when a record comes up for grabs that otherwise seldom comes up for sale.
