Unfortunately, when we put our first LTD 500 vinyl copies of Thats Not My Name out with a friend last year for kicks, she kept some vinyl back from us and you and is now trying to sell them to you guys for £60 a piece. This is nothing to do with us as we would NEVER charge that money for our singles. It's shocking??? cashing in..........

Is this switchflicker, by any chance? I thought I saw a 60 quid vinyl on their site.

Katie & Jules are two of the most honest, hard working people I know.. and they ooze integrity.. if they want to look after their fans then they have that right. Having a pop at them online only makes YOU look petty and silly.

Nuff said..

lets all just enjoy the music and amazing shows.

sir yes sir

 
slightly confused as to why you'd bring this up - switchflicker were never going to make any money from pressing, distributing and sorting out press/radio for 500 records, so why are you dissing them? maybe they deserve some credit for helping you out back in the day? and if people want to pay £60 for a 7" which features exactly the same songs they could buy on itunes for under £2 isn't that up to them? try to enjoy yr sucess and not hate on the people who helped you get there.

I think all Jules n' Kate are trying to tell us "sir", is that they're not the ones charging us through the teeth. They're not the ones taking monetary advantage of their success through price gouging of some precious first press albums. Of which I was lucky to get a hold of "back in the day" :-).

Hope I'm not putting words in their mouths, but that's how I read it.

We don't care how this Friend earns her money. But we had lots of emails from upset fans thinking we had something to do with charging this amount for a record. This blog is to point out that it is NOTHING to do with us. We would never charge that amount.

(and by that I mean, this sort of ebay stuff shouldn't surprise anyone. It's only a matter of time before you'll find the half eaten salad you left in a resteraunt on there, going for £200)

Quite sad that humans have become so untrustable.
I do hope you're able to settle things.
