A VG- went for just under 500 dabs on e-bay last week!

I think i am satisfied that its ok to play out and my copy which i have owned for some 20 years will be resting in the play box.
Just curious as to why now then?

Not only did the record get played but Northern Soul, Wigan Casino and talcum powder all got mentioned in the same sentence.
-
Excellent thread encapsulating the strange world of northern soul, on what other subject would you get a discussion about and need to hear what happened to be played in a club on a particular night 43 years ago?

Is this thread more about further boots being pushed onto the market or people being ripped off?
I am playing devils advocate here (so go easy), When purchasing anything it is always buyer beware (or seller even) and all down to someones knowledge/lack of.
How many on here would quite rightly buy a rarity for a song off e bay if the seller was clueless and didn't realise what he had?
Ha, but I am not deceiving anyone I can here you say?
Well, say you went into a charity shop and saw a 50 count box of singles with a sign on it saying "to be sold as a job lot only", £20.
Whilst plowing through the middle of the road shite you come across a 5k biggy nestled snuggly in the middle.
When the little old lady asks you what interested you in the old box of records that had be there years with no one taking the slightest interest in them, do you tell her about the rarity and offer 4 grand for the records
or do you mumble something about your missus loving Lonny Donegan and shove a twenty pound note into her hand?
I live in hope!

Could do worse than have a good look through the "originals for a fiver" thread that was running on here a while back, some absoloute crackers on there.

There might be another issue here. Why did Tramp records spend so much time and effort with the giveaway legit reissue in replicating the original (albeit they didn't quite get it right)? Why didn't they design a completely different label?
Could it be that they were hoping that somewhere down the line unsuspecting buyers or wannabee OVO DJs would pay well over the odds for the single?
Heaven forbid
Why would Tramp records "hoping that somewhere down the line unsuspecting buyers or wannabee OVO DJs would pay well over the odds for the single?" benefit Tramp records?

There's still sellers on e bay describing these boots as official reissues, I've just sent one a message, if we all send a message, they may get the message?

My irreplaceable Y fronts had since the Casino, (30 inch bottoms high waist band, nothing worse than feeling trussed up when shaking a leg), always wear them out to venues, toyed with the idea of giving them a wash but afraid to risk it these days. Certainly been lucky for me always seem to find plenty room on the floor when up dancing, now I think of it I always find plenty when I'm not!

He's strap line is: “Record has been in storage for over half a century!”
And it will be there at least twice as long again at that price.

They would have probably been approached by RW after the BBC contacted him, needing some dancers after finding out Wigan's Chosen Few didn't exist and Pan's People couldn't do back drops.

Yea i remember it well RW started the rebirth about the same time Richard Keys and Andy Gray invented football.
On a serious note would anyone credit the advent of the internet for fueling it?
-
You look back now at the furore of the time and doesn't it bring a wry smile to your face, was it a case of being easy targets?
I don't think there would be a toilet in any half decent sized village public house these days that doesn't have traces of the old Columbian marching powder in them, yet no one mentions it.
Is it because it's the drug of choice of the "Establishment", or have the authorities just admitted defeat?

Levine talking about the Four Vandals record in 2003 (13 minutes onwards, sorry don't know how to edit the clip).

Surely he should have mentioned getting a no quibble full refund, a confidence filler feedback if ever there was one?

WHY WOULD YOU????
