Hi, i kept out of this - but feel i should add something. I'm aware it's a no win situation but it is unfortunate.
It's only being sold because, after I queued and bought the Manchester one, I thought this is not needed - I will never do anything with it. Yes, I could have traded it - which was mentioned in the first instance - but the amount of emails in my inbox meant it was impossible to chose one person - how you would chose, when all had true and fine people? Equally, I could have kept it in the bag it was bought and said nowt.
Christ, I hope I never win the lottery!
eBay ensures that if you aren't happy - you don't have to bid.
I have a lot of other Moz stuff - never to sold or traded while I'm still on this planet at least.
A lovely dedicated Vauxhall and I from HMV in London (i have one from Manchester as well - but what he wrote is different - so it's staying with me!), Southpaws from Dublin and Belfast. A signed Aberdeen ticket from 1991 (the first time I met him), a signed sling from the Kill Uncle tour (laughingly signed - "Sling your Life" - Morrissey), a Morrissey shot book, Pregnant Japanese Jigsaw, original artwork.
I could bang on for longer but it's late so I won't, but hopefully this will give you some idea that I didn't simply wander up and queue at the merchandise in order to secure a raging profit.
Funnily enough, the price it's now at - has paid for two tickets to Liverpool in November.
I do appreciate people's frustration - but this was never the intention. I am happy to post pics of my stuff if others are willing to share theirs and tales - the sling is nice (as slings go!).
Anyone up for sharing pics of their stuff in other post?
