Big price paid for a single by Moonstruck. Modboy was the seller so interest was strong especially as he talked this one up claiming it to be one of the last powerpop/punk unknowns from the era. Regular readers of this blog may contest that claim. I have never heard it, or of it until this auction which attracted a flurry of bids. It was a promo and there were no titles on the label and Modboy only knew one, It's Just A Matter Of Time ( Before They Drop The Bomb ). Unclear who was going to drop the bomb but sounds a promising title. Only a 100 pressed. Sold for £335.

Cheers. Do you have it?
It's not one that's in my collection (& after hearing it, I'm not going to fork out a lot of money for it)
Apparently the winner of that auction - didn't want to fork out a lot of money either - It's been re-listed!!
Modboy picked it up for £50 on ebay not long ago... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330557077125
I'm sure his standing will guarantee him a handsome return...
I got an email from someone who picked it up cheap in MVE about twenty years ago.
