G45 Ebay Watch

[HarvestmanMan]

I know these sort of notices are usually frowned upon on here, but there's a certain record on a gold label that's currently up...

Let's watch and see how high this one goes. Pass the popcorn.

 

[MopTopMike]

I'm sure we will all "crack up" over the final winning bid amount.

Sold by my friend, and previously mentioned by me here:

http://www.g45central.com/forum/index.php?threads/ebay-james-bond-the-agents.3198/

$1,387.66 for a cracked record, wow. So what would a NM example go for now? $3k+?

[reyes]

5600!! how many copies are out there?

 

[mr. splendid]

Actually I thought the crack in the James Bond 45 wasn't that big a deal and judging by the soundsample the condition otherwise was better than the one that sold for $ 1478 awhile ago . Now the Remaining Few - two cracks , one going through to the label - that's a different story .

 

[bosshoss]

5600!! how many copies are out there?

It certainly isn't in the top 30 rarest...I've seen 4 or 5 copies sold over the years, including mint ones.

Looks like Those Five on Paris Tower sold for an offer below the $1,000 asking price.

 

[buckeyebeat]

Don't see that listing but $1000 is about 4 times too high for that record, unless it includes the postcard (I don't think I've seen a postcard for Those Five). Plummer/Chairmanmeoy has had one go unsold for <$250.

It sold for the best offer of $350 on July 28.
In VG++/EX condition apparently.
No postcard was mentioned in the listing.

There's one more VG- one where the cracked one came from.

 

[Outside_Lookin_in]

Well. The seller put the 45 in a sleeve, stuck it in a bubble envelope, and sent it. No padding or anything.

What do you know, it's cracked.

DO NOT BUY FROM EBAY SELLER "igiveumypeace"!

Thank God it wasn't the Jerms on the Del Mar label!

[HarvestmanMan]

Copies of the Blues Company's "Experiment in Color" apparently go for $200 now...and that's the Great Lakes pressing!

Suppose I should have gotten one a couple of years ago if I wanted one...

The AMG pressing just went for $454. What the hell is up with this price spike - European DJs and bidding wars again?

I think so. My maximum bid/snipe was $180... :oops:

Prices are rising for garage 45s quicker than youth unemployment here in the UK.

Yeah, it's almost caught up to the prices I had to pay before eBay 15 years ago to put my collection together

Somebody's a lot poorer today. 2900. (Shipping was free.)

I also love that the dude's wearing latex gloves.
