Paul, he doesn't speak english so cross is not in his dictionary...
ask in German: Ist da ein Kreuz zu sehen auf der Kirche?

It's raising slowly... Few months ago I saw a fake DD for 310€ which was blocked afterwards by Ebay.

Come on! He sells it for his neighbour and can't take a better picture but was able to take a first picture or get a first picture taken? How far away is that "neighbour"from the seller? And he doesn't know anything about the band and/or the record? I mean: He's able to sell an item on ebay but doesn't google it first to find out what he's selling?

Second, just from experience: If a picture is taken badly for an item to be sold on ebay, it is NEVER (repeat: never!) coincidence! Eggi got a Sisters bootleg a few weeks ago with a dodgy picture (the item was cheap at least!). As the record arrives it becomes clear why two of the 4 corners of the sleeve were cut off in the picture. This way a major water damage was hidden. Luckily Eggi got his money back from paypal but still. If a picture is cut off, there is a reason for it.

Happy bidding and good luck...
You can't fix stupid.

I totally agree with Eva. It's a fake and the seller knows it.

Yes Eva is right! And Paul too with his agreement! Ebay should ask at sellers to put complete pics on...

BTW: I know why the top of the sleeve was cut away, It has a title which says: 'If you are buying this, the damage IS done" ;D

I'm selling this painting for my neighbour on Ebay. It has a lot of flowers in it and it is signed by a dude called "Van Gogh". Never heard of him before, so I have no idea of it's value ...

this item from this seller was removed from ebay time ago

i was planning to bid on it , but then the price was in almost 300 euros

i don´t remember how it ended but i think in 350 or so .
but it was an invalid bid ( i think a heartlander was the winner)

IMHO That copy is a FAKE. Its obvious that anyone selling THAT particular single would start the bidding at a much higher price AND in the least have a decent Reserve price on the item

Am I thinking in the right direction - or am i talking Bollocks?

Run-off says 'PAE-03A' and 'PAE-03B' is a honest answer of the seller...
