Enter the cost debate if you desire, but please let us know if you know this artist/release and if you think it is such a killer, which obviously many people think it is (51 bids)

I have one of these. It's recorded by Oswald Creary (also known for his 70's Half Moon productions). His "Classic" label is his 80's imprint, and he recorded many Toronto-based artists on it.

I guess it shows that the delete bin items of yesterday become the e-bay items of tomorrow. It's unbelievable that some people have this much disposable cash.

*actually the buyers make/earn cash on it. No further comment.*

So all is well then. Unfortunately the artists or producers don't, but such is life within the system we have created, and insist on maintaining.

I like ALL eras and genres of Reggae - but I wouldn't pay $5.00usd for that song. Very average sounding to me.

the riddim is not killer at all ........

Another copy on eBay is up to US$300 with a few days to go. It beggars belief.

Here is a classic sounds 12" Very hyped as well at the moment. Seen it on quite a few want-lists..

If it shows up on ebay I expect a similar price..

a few good tunes on this label but keeping them under wraps. A handful of collectors with more money than sense ( naming no names again but you know who you are!) have pushed up the prices of obscure but ordinary tunes that changed hands for a fraction of the price even a couple of years ago. Most of em don't even play out

got a couple copies of this in a store stock buy a couple months ago. it's alright, i'd probably balk at paying $25 for it (not knowing market value). I was happy to get a CDN keeper. Probably even keep 2 for the rhythm.

What kills me is that you guys love to trash all the records that go for ridiculous cash, yet you're feeding the fire by highlighting all of them...indirectly proving the allure of such items.
