I've been asked about the recent stash found for the second Primates 45 on Marko, "Don't Press Your Luck".
The label owner had a few 25 count boxes of the first single, "Knock On My door", which were sold off slowly by a different source starting in the 1980s. Selling price was typically $25-30, then it reached as high as $75 by the early 2000s.
No copies were found of the second single, as the label owner had none.
The 2nd Primates 45 was extremely tough to find; I lucked out on a copy from a record dealer who used to advertise in Discoveries magazine - this was during the mid 1990s. I found a second copy in the wild a few years after obtaining my copy ,but it had a crack so I sold it for cheap to another collector pal. Unless a band member turned up a copy here and there, finding "don't Press your Luck" was quite a challenge.
Recently as the past couple of months, someone managed to find a box (what I was told) of unplayed copies of "Don't Press Your Luck". This makes sense, as I've witnessed transactions for three copies to three different people, as well as others trying to sell a copy for up to $1,000 each. I do not think this record will ever achieve that price, no one seemed willing to pay that much before this quantity find.
I would say there are at least 10 copies from the source, if not more.
