I have a gorgeous print of Mickey's Christmas Carol with great Stereo sound just started on ebay, along with some other seasonal Christmas favourites.

Yes, too great for me, though I've been looking for this. Nicely done, Del, you'll get better than the original purchase price on this.

I did bid on this, but it's now too high for me as well.
Good luck.

Definitely the right time for listing this one, Glad we bought ours many years ago, it is one of Deranns finest prints. Well done to Del on this one.
It's a funny thing this title, it either seems to go for 50/60 or mega bucks.
For Del, i hope he gets the mega bucks.

Thanks guys, the sound does it for me, the original sound is average at best, the sound now on this is excellent, loud and clear, not muffled as it was, the picture is pretty good too :-). Must admit, it has surprised me, it's only been listed since Sunday.

Ours is an original stereo print Del and sound is first class. Is yours re-recorded?

yes mate, the one I'm selling was originally mine, I have another copy now which again the sound was poor so I'll re record that one and keep that, it's as good as the one for sale. Pleased yours has good sound, it shows it up when processed through an amp.

Well this has finished at £230 [Eek!]

My guess is this will be relisted. Fantastic print but this is not rare, and who would pay £230 for a single 600ft (only someone new to the hobby)

We will see.

Well, it's interesting to see that four people were willing to pay at least £150 for it. Maybe they were all eager to have something really good for a Christmas show! I think the lack of wear on the screenshots and the impressive sound must have been a factor. I used to dread buying stereo prints, due to the frequency with which at least one track was not good, although I expect the earlier batches were more reliable.

230

very good. It is funny how it all goes. You can list the same film two or three times, first you may not get any bites at all, but lots of watchers, (there always around), then you list it again and it goes bonkers. As you say, depends who's on at the time i guess. This particular titles has been sold for as little as mid 40s and as high as this one today.
Have to say though, this is one of the very best quality prints Derann put out. We have this one and it looks as though its just come out of the box and the stereo sound, (only played back in twin mono on my 1200HD), is superb.

Well done on this one Dell. [Wink]

The print has just been posted to the new lucky owner. I agree with Adrian, the print does look like a new print and the sound (re recorded) is excellent, unlike the original sound which was very poor.
