$5000 for a teena marie c.d !!!!!

[DISCODISK]

blimey some idiot paid $5000 + for a teena marie c.d ill admit the bid history does look a bit suspect, compare this to motown vinyl rarities, the rarest is something else but the second rarest motown vinyl the andantes 'like a nightmare' is one seriously rare record and would only sell for double this,what kind of fool would make a bid like this :o

I know it wasa Northern Soul collectable but people were paying shed loads of money for Frank Wilson's 'Do I love you'. Wether this is true but apparently is was pressed up and ready to go at Motown then thay suddenly changed their mindsand pulled the release, not after one (!?) was sneakerly creamed off.
A copy of the above record sold for £15,000!! that's $27000 on toadys rate, in 1998. (The original copy it is alleged).

The winner has a feedback of 0 (zero), so there's a chance he's a newbie. It's either a joke, or he forgot where the decimal point went.

EURODANCEMIX yes but if he forgot the point somebody else has to bid to take him to that figure.
i remember the very first time i bid on e,bay i forgot the point it was for an old 60s publicity picture of the younghearts from the late 60s it was $20 but forgetting the point i bid $2,000 i didnt realise you could retract the bid it was ending in the middle of the night, i went to bed thiking for f***s sake ,thankfully when i looked in the morning id paid $37 phew! :lol:

Looks like he bidded against a person trying it on! I reckon he's seriously overpaid - he too has no 'history' on ebay - can a CD really be worth so much?

[DISCODISK]

cant get used to posting wihout being TOLD to log in,well i am a scouser DAVICILLO talking of frank wilson and twat bidders theres a dct los angeles acetate of frank wilson on a u.k auction site now its already £300 that record would never have been pressed there, its likely its simon soussan cut this in the mid 70s prior to bootlegging it as eddie foster, interesting to have but totally worthless, bet it sells for a grand :roll:

[Davicillo]

Discodisk, guess what, that copy that sold, well gues who bought it the first time. Simon Soussan, and he paid £500 in the early 70s!

[Davicillo]

ive never seen a c.d sell for that much, but if a rare record can sell for $$ why shouldnt a rare c.d? there are a lot of c.ds now fetchng money and with more great releases getting deleted its something were going to see more of in the future i saw a sam dees jap c.d sell for lots, i was bidding on it, his late 80s u.s indie pen pad album on c.d i have the album but i want the c.d it was unbelievable it went up like a rocket, so hold on to them ethel mermon cds fellas :lol:

That has GOT to be some kinda young teen fuckin around on ebay under many different ID's or hacked someone's ID that kept bidding up. There is no way in HELL i, or anyone else for that matter in their right mind would pay that much for a damn CD :roll:

[efunk_adelic]

wow... I used to play that song in the clubs... but, I never took on the LP. There must have been a 1 pressing of the CD in the 80's and then out it went. I never see that one.

If someone was willing to pay $16,500 for some stripper's breast implant on E-bay.Then why the surprise

[buckaroo]

And someone paid megabucks for clippings from a porn star's clitoris... :o :-?
