I'm just curious what this time the winning bid is? A time ago was there was a person who payed £340.00 for this collecters item.

I can't give so many money for a 7". I don't buy vinyl any more. We live in a digitale world now! But there are a few vinyls where I'm proud of.

Mrs Ed had one through her first husband. She has subsequently given it away.

The story I heard is that although 1000 were pressed they were distributed to record shops (through Red Rhino IIRC) on a sale-or-return basis. So that about 980 of them came back to and Gary. However, the alarming regularity with which it turns up on ebay suggests that either:

a) the band (read Von) have been slowly dripping them back into circulation over the years and cashing in on the "rarity" value

b) there's a "better" bootleg version out there which doesn't have the cover subtly wrong.

And no, I don't have a copy.

[christophe]

hey Markfiend, you forget there are stupid people out there who would sell this for a couple of bux.

[markfiend]

good point christophe

option d: that it's the same copy being repeatedly bought and sold again and again on ebay

reversed labels?

[christophe]

I would love to have a copy but I simply can't give the money. and I can't actualy see the point unless you Have to much money that is..
problably those people buy it from ebay to have it for some time and try to make money of it when they sell it to the next one...

I think Red Rhino/Merciful Release put the remaining copies back on the market in 1982, when the Sisters started to make their first real impact on the music scene, (most of the people who bought there copies back then always say they bought them in 1982.)

The alarming regularity with which the 7" turns up on eBay, I think, has more to do with a) the ever growing popularity of eBay (just think of some of the figures being spent there on bootlegs, Test Pressings and what not) b) people who bought there copies for £10-20 back then wanting to cash in. ...

Still I don't think I've seen more than 30 copies over the years on eBay which still isn't anywhere near a 1000 ... (just my 2 cents ).

Does it sound better if you've paid 300+ quid for it?

[Francis]

Sorry, I forgot. You don't actually play it do you.

ah well i didn't want to rub salt by writing that the first cost me £25ish

[christophe]

I wouldn't play it if I had to spend 300+ quid..
but thts the reasen I wouldn't pay that much...

[CellThree]

I was flicking through Rare Record Collector 2006 (or whatever it's called).

Damage Done - 150
Body Electric - 60
4x12" WEA Box - 150
Everything else no more than 30 quid.

[markfiend]

2006? That's a bit previous isn't it?

[TheBoyNextDoor]

As long as I remember it's been set at a value of £150, even back in the "old days" (?).

The question is.. how much did you pay for your Damage Done? And when?

[Spiggy's hat]

£370.00!

Does anyone remember the scouse guy that used to have a bootleg/legit record stall, on Leeds 2nd hand market in the mid-late 80's?

I remember seeing Damage Done on his stall back then for £50.00, & thinking that was expensive.
