I think my local record store (Cavern in Walthamstow, London) ripped me off. The Queen pink 7" was priced at £19-99. On closer inspection the price tag looked yellowed and marked at the top like it had been peeled from another different record, and on E-Bay I noticed someone's scan priced at £7-99. Anyone know what the retail price in the shop that morning should have been?
I went out early on Saturday morning especially to try and get the Queen single and I hate being ripped off.

In Sheffield the price was £6.99. but they only had 10 copies, there was a line of about 150 people waiting out side before the shop opened, by the time the first 10 people got served, they had sold seven copies. I got mine because I was was near the front of the line, but 3 more copies for the next 140 people, there were some unhappy bunnies waiting outside (I suppose it could happen that only 3 people out of the next 140 wanted a copy, but I can't see it really)
I am bidding for this one at present which seems to be going for a reasonable price. My question is does anyone know if this will be repressed? As I dont want to spend more than I have to then find out that it will be coming out again.
Thanks
