Please direct me to the 'ten a penny' shop. Where today can I buy one for ten pounds or less? I have been to every vinyl shop in Manchester city centre and the ones I know in south Manc (which is probably all of them)... Eager to buy one today so await your response.

If you flick through the 7" box at King Bee in Chorlton on a regular basis you will see more Smiths singles than they bother to list on their website http://www.kingbeerecords.co.uk/kingbee_records_manchester_music.htm... unsurprisingly they have the Manchester one a lot, I wouldn't pay more than £10 for one. I know a dealer who tried to sell them a collection and tried to argue for more cash for the Manchester one... King Bee's response was 'there's nothing special about it'.
If you look at sold prices then you will also see that someone has listed a Manchester single twice with a buy it now of £20 and no one has bothered... so I'd suggest the 'market' doesn't support £20 for this single.
Ideally, what you need is a seller who doesn't know the difference, ask a few questions, and buy it. Cheaply

I bought a copy in a London record shop for £10 last year (haggled down from the £15 asking price). Later sold it by auction for £8.50 (at ebay) . Make of that what you will (and I don't mean my lack of sound business skills)
As with all records you have to pay to get the best.
Having explored the options I would expect to pay around £30 for a truly excellent copy with excellent sleeve.
Most of the stuff on ebay isn't described properly. Excellent will be very good if you are lucky.
