  1. I've experienced that a lot as well, mostly on CDs though (which is even more frustrating in my opinion). I think it's just a case of the person responsible for the reissue being lazy and careless. I mean seriously, if a large centre-hole 7" is pressed off-centre, why not spend an extra minute or two to properly align the record (without using the middle) prior to doing the dub?
  2. Enter: billy harner check in the eBay search field. Click Search. Nothing will show up. Now click "completed listings" in the left column.
  3. I don't know the story behind the different colours, but the two labels have got differing publishing credits, plus the green one has got a catalogue number printed on the label (BF-900) whereas the blue one doesn't. Publishing credits: GREEN = Hitkit Music / Freak Dog Music BMI BLUE = Lantern Light Music BMI
  4. For what it's worth, he's sold 7 copies during the past two weeks: https://tinyurl.com/2vj87qe
  5. I bought a copy of this 45 from the seller on eBay, it arrived yesterday and it is definitely a legit 60s pressing. It has got the same kind of hard-to-read raised hallmark/letters (M.S.I. CO. written backwards) "under" the label as the original issue of Epitome Of Sound and many other Philadelphia releases from that time (V-TONE was from Philadelphia).
  6. The latest bunch of copies on eBay have sold for: 2010-10-28 - $191.50 2010-10-03 - $262.00 2010-08-23 - $282.78 So I guess anywhere between £125-£175 is reasonable.

  12. ...and $0.50 is not "a fortune". It is super cheap to list buy-it-now auctions. The final value fees are high though. But seeing as no one buys this sellers goods, it shouldn't be a problem for him/her.
  13. No matter how high the price is, it never costs more than $0.50 to list a "fixed priced listing" (i.e. buy it now). It costs $2.00 to list something as an "auction style listing" when you have a starting price of $200 or more. Check out eBay's fees page: https://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/fees.html
  14. From Popsike:
  15. Great tune! Very decent price.

  17. I seem to remember that you wrote the exact pressing figure for the "Use It Before You Lose It" 45 in a previous thread, but I've forgotten what it was. Do you remember? 500? 1000? That Bobby Valentin tune is one of the best ever examples of boogaloo / uptempo latin soul and the 45 has been nigh on impossible to get ahold of during the past 10 years. Very few copies has come up for sale "out in the open" (i.e. auctions/lists/etc.). Its availability/price 15-25+ years ago is not relevant. It is also irrelevant that there might be copies sitting in people's collections unless those people decided to sell them and flood/stabilize the market. All things considered, the amounts that this 45 has sold for in recent Manship/eBay auctions is spot-on in my opinion.
  18. A "store account" like his costs $300 per month plus $0.03 per item to list. Then there are ofcourse the "final value fees" for the stuff that sells (roughly 15% per sold item).
  19. It is definitely a bootleg, pressed during the last 10-15 years.
  20. It is: Royal Jesters - My Kind Of Woman / I've Got Soul - OPTIMUM 101 Joe Jama sang in The Royal Jesters.
  21. I did that before I made previous comment. I recorded the Lyrics and Toby Bullard 45s, slowed down the Toby Bullard track so that it had the exact same speed as the original Lyrics 45 and then I put both recordings together in one soundfile. I put the recording of the Toby Bullard 45 in the LEFT channel and the recording of the Lyrics 45 in the RIGHT channel and it's obvious that both speakers play the exact same recording. Have a listen for yourself below: https://www.shingaling.com/tobyLEFTlyricsRIGHT.mp3 I totally agree with John Manship. The Flodavieur release is a blatantly obvious bootleg.
  22. No, the Lyrics 45 on GNP utilises the exact same version as the Toby Bullard 45, but the track on the Toby Bullard 45 has been speeded up ever so slightly.
  23. Only 1-3 hours to go on these auctions now: https://shop.ebay.com/pushkings/m.html Thanks for looking!
  24. There's now about 2 days left on these auctions: https://shop.ebay.com/pushkings/m.html
