it was not cheaper than the other one. A lot of money.
... and the winner was.... Stadsfiets! He also places many bids on those George_Bush auctions some months ago. Then he bidded as Stadsfiets 31, Stadsfiets 32, Stadsfiets 33, Stadsfiets 34, Stadsfiets 35, Stadsfiets 36, Stadsfiets 37, Stadsfiets 38, Stadsfiets 39, Stadsfiets 40 ...

I thinks it's suspicious when people go on Ebay with 10 different accounts ... (I know I know, I have too much time on my hands)

That's it then. I'm going to sell my whole catalogue and buy a Clavia Nord Wave with the gains.

ay, I see. The last 2 were all about 300 €. For me it was good that we had a very weak Dollar and a strong Euro at this time I bought mine. I payed 401 USD.

Not prices but the currency is rising...
:P

It makes you wonder what makes a record worth that price. It can't be just the fact that it is rare, because I've seen other bootlegs, also limited releases, that went for less than 80 Euro's. I guess some records have "the name" for being rare, so the price rises fast on Ebay. Green Eldritch is one of them...

yes, think it is like in real live. The name or the branding is it sometimes.

The show on the Green Eldritch isn´t even rare. So what else can it be?
Quantities? Think this is one point.
Rumours? Another posibility.
Quality? Don´t think so.
A beautiful cover???? Nope

Maybe prices paid a long time ago and people remember...
Oh, I want this, it must be very good cause the price is high

I still don't understand why this bootleg fetches so high prices :?:

It comes up on Ebay regularly and the quantity isn't that low. Maybe, it's because many bootlegs guides list it as expensive/rare and it's always mentioned as one of the top Sisters rarities.

I bought a copy of the Black Dominion lp in clear vinyl (limited to 20 :!: copies) two weeks ago for €70 and that I'd consider a rare item...

Everybody who wants it has the right to buy it for the price it´s worth for him and he is prepared to pay. Same like buying shares at the Dow or Dax. Only rar doesn´t mean that it gives a value.

I am pretty sure that the new owner will be very happy with the GE. And that is all.

You cot a few copies of it? Fine. Paid less? Doublefine. Be happy and buy something else which gives you a value. :!:


Thats all in the game. Enough said. :evil: Sorry!

Is there an approximate of the quantity?

And btw: the winner of this last one would have got it for less than £80 if it wasn't for me (third highest bid was £77.77).
