I've had several people asking me about this record so I thought the best thing to do to make it fair is to put it up for offers. I'll take offers for this until 6pm tomorrow (Tuesday) and start at £150. If anyone comes in with a high bid I may take it. I may also be interested in trades for records of equivalent price / rarity. THE ACTION - I'LL KEEP HOLDING ON / HEY SAH LO NEY - PARLOPHONE DEMO Condition wise, no scratches - just a couple of light marks, two of which I stupidly did myself when cleaning it but they are nothing, trust me. The record plays MINT. So I will grade it EX overall. If interested please PM me and I will keep people informed via this post.

That's the usual price for Bobby Sheen...

The one that gets on my nerves most - if I do a larger list, someone will ask if I've got three records, I reply that I sold one but I still have the other two, and you can guarantee that their reply will be - oh that was the only one I really wanted, I'll cancel the other two - well why order them in the first place?

I've just cleaned this using a Dettol anti bacterial wipe then rinsed off with water

I was thinking it might need something a bit stronger than the usual washing up liquid and warm water, someone suggested white vinegar?

Blimey this is going to be tricky!

I need a bit of expert help in cleaning if possible - I have received these 60's acetates and they have been in storage for decades and have consequently got covered in mould and goodness knows what else. Can anyone suggest ways of cleaning these? I don't want to get any cleaning products on the labels though. There are some incredible rarities by the likes of Cream, The Cheynes, The Action, The Small Faces, The Sands etc.

I know it books at three figures mate but I'd rather have the £25 now than wait 6 months for it to sell at a higher price

Dave - got these three Saturday - sadly not £2 each though

So was I mate, so was I!

I sold three copies of this last year: a no centre VG++ one for £150, an EX one for £400 and the same EX one for £450 after I bought it back from the chap I sold it to. I found that copy at the garden centre on the Wolverhampton to Bridgnorth Road believe it or not, cost me £2.

Was going to ask the same question

It's ok someone told me - The Softones

Got this bit of a song in my mind, it's a modern soul type thing probably played late 70's, the name Love Committee rings a bell but might be a cover up...anyway the chorus is "That's what love can do" or "That's what love will do" - any ideas?
