Still wondering how many fakes were made, it seems no one has a straight answer...
Was it Alice or our daughter Ellice???

From a very reliable source

"It was a 1k - and a lot of them ended up in England, distributed (wholesale) via London record fairs and collectors shops. This would be very late 80"s.

The Japanese dealer who made this record brought large quantities into the UK selling them (wholesale cost £10 ) and using them as swaps/exchanges for rare punk and new wave records to add to his own collection and to sell in his shop back home in Japan".

There was also a near perfect replica of Mutant Moments by Soft Cell around the same time".

Yep, 1,000 copies is what I heard as well.

I've checked my bootleg discographies and the Heartland fanzines but no numbers are being provided. So let's work on the assumption of 1,000 copies made :?

Fake DD on Ebay again
I was sure this one wouldn't sell, but someone already placed a bid... meanwhile much rarer items are being sold for a lot less.

Weren't multiple copies of the fake DD advertised repeatedly in the back of the NME in the latter half of the 80s for £35 a pop? Or may it was £25, I can't recall.
Is this the place I used to know as Fatherland?

and in a real good condition. Bought a few pretty things from this guy. If he says it is in excellent condition it is in very excellent condition.


Between, i didn´t see a original copy in the last time...

Yep, the original DD wasn't offered for quite some time.

Let's see what happens, when the next one turns up. Or maybe we've entered the holiday season already :wink:
