How much is 70GBP these days, $50US?
$300 is probably less than what it would have cost for me to get one. And a lot of other people. Capitalism is a wonderful thing.
Kewpie should try to put a stop to this comic book that originally sold for 7p fetching over 700k...
Re: The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead, rare Greek white label advance copy with different sleeve on eBa
I don't think calling this a "white label advance copy" is warranted, as it's not a white label and there is no promo wording. Just looks like a variation of the standard lp.
The promos aren't worth much. What you were offered for the 7" and acetate I thought were more than fair.
What you're referring to as a "mastering disc" is called an acetate. I have an Everyday Is Like Sunday from Abbey Road. These were made so the parties involved could have something to...
A trip to my parents meant finding a bunch of paper goods that are over 20 years old. Here are some price lists. Prepare for some reverse sticker shock.

Stephane is right (no surprise there). You'd see these Hatful box sets in record stores in the late '80s/early /90s.
Strange to see that much stuff within 30 mins of my house and I not knowing the owner.
There's some incorrect nomenclature being used here.
A Digipak is a cardboard case with a plastic tray glued to it. US titles like My Love Life and Tomorrow came in these, as well as the UK singles for Maladjusted.
Titles like the US Boxers and Now My Heart Is Full came an FLP cases, or...
I personally noticed this in the late '90s when I bought a bunch of them from the collection of Jo Slee, then saw one on the wall at Record & Tape Exchange at Notting Hill Gate.
He signed a stack of QID lp's for promotion back during its release. Pop out the sleeve and see if there is some gold highlighter marks on the back of the sleeve. These were signed and then stacked together, and the ink hadn't dried completely, leaving some residue.
I have seen them for sale but they're always asking too much. Someone on here tried for months to sell his YSL jacket he threw out in Tel Aviv, for example.
Whenever I buy a cd to play that has a sticker on the shrink, I cut it out and stick it in the booklet. If it's in these newer cardboard sleeve cases, I just slit the shrink at the opening and pull the cd out, leaving the shrink intact.
Japan has some great stickers on their shrinkwrap...
Everyone is different. You have to specify how you want the records packaged to the seller. I've had a collector in France mail me Smiths lps in a padded envelope, then act completely surprised when I was upset about the shoddy packaging job.
The Brits typically use a thin cardboard...
