If you look at the sellers other listings. One of the items he offers is a label and sleeve production and design facility :ohmy:

You don't think he might have? The Jimi Hendrix. Surely not ..... just a thought :lol:

a beautifully scripted "Wind UP", no way would a vinyl junkie/dealer use that type of terminology

i wouldn't describe this as a "wind up", this person is clearly totally insane

I'd so love to know what planet this guy lives on! He is so deluded!

It's eiher a Turkish or Iranian EP (no wonder it's not in the Record Collector Price Guide). It's nowhere near as rare as even £4,000 - there are loads of EPs like this around. I had a similar one on the same label in multi-coloured vinyl which had "Call My Name" by James Royal on it. Shame I gave it away - could have let someone have a bargain at £5,000!

I just love the sellers basis of valuation......

"Based on previous researched sales of the same series, a physical base value is set at £15,500. £1000 is obvious simply for the catalogue number (the label it is on) which has a ripple effect on arriving at values for other elements. A further £4000 is added for the fact that it is a translucent record which is very unusual and interesting for vinyl. £2000 is added for the fact that it is coloured vinyl, and a further £3500 is added for the plain obscurity of this fusion of translucent colouring. £500 is added for the rarity element of the colouring and tone, i.e. it is a non-primary colour.

The imagery of the sleeve is rarely an influence on the physical valuation of a record, but in this case, although the paper stock is of a low grade, this image has rarely, (I have yet to find another documented case), if ever been used, so the sleeve commands an added high obscurity value of £4500, perhaps much more.

Rarity Value:

The sheer rarity value is unlikely to be debated at less than £8000 as a base.

Desirability Value:

Although desirability is without question subjective and arguably transient, it is set here as discretionary at £8000, relating to the present market.

Cultural Value:

Culturally it is a cover version, and coupled with its relationship to Buffalo Springfield and the Soulrunners, the extra attachment to Bob Dylan (a two month gap between both recording their own different versions of all along the watchtower) gives it additional appeal among connoisseurs of the genre, and its link between the contemporaries of that era.

Again subjective, and not necessarily dependant on taste or personal opinion of the audio representation. It round's up the sixties, which may forever be looked back upon as unique, as a record, this compilation is also highly unique in that respect, physically and artistically and as a potent marker. A general cultural value is set at £8000. "

Anyone read the nice little disclaimer

In terms of authentication, I am not entirely sure I understand the question, although it is a good one. If you mean by authentication, a 'certificate' of authenticity, as there would be for a signed or initialled painting, then no, vinyl records are the certificate of authenticity. A vinyl record (or a CD) is the way in which the music industry creates, brands, publishes and certifies the pulsing waves of energy (sound) that its artists create, so the hot stamped foil label and the sleeve, liner notes, names, addresses and logos are the certificate of authenticity for the sounds and images that are vended to the bearer, if that makes sense. From the information that I have been able to gather this is a genuine article, on a genuine, rare and sought after label, and a well known and highly sought after artist.

You can't even send it back !! laugh.gif

+£2000 for coloured vinyl? Quick, dig out those Casino Classics!! ohmy.gif

"This is an antiquity delivery rate as opposed to a shipping cost."

If it's an antiquity it's at least a thousand years old... :D

I wonder if he'd accept a side bet of a grand that he won't get the asking price... could be some money to be made here.

Considering the prices of non US or UK soul- records as a hint

and that there might be some Hendrix- Fans out there biggrin.gif I´d say between 200 and 400 quid.

Like Gene says - it's fairly worthless - if it were a David Bowie one I'd consider paying maybe £100 tops

I'm with you Pete - £80-£100. It has the 'feel' of a European PS from the late 7Ts.....it's not something I'd invest in and for that reason I'm out smile.gif

£20-000 before lol, I like the bit at the bottom

"£20,000 starting bid, rising to thirty thousand pounds if re-submission necessary"

I thought if things didn't sell, you lowered the price ??????

Not sure if someone has put already but "Ahang Rooz" is Iranian for "Song of the Day"
