The rarest Cure record ever?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

The whole thing was supposed to be for charity.
I wonder how much of this asking price will see its way back to that cause?
Cheers.

Someone got mighty lucky with that pick..

yes, it is for charity.. you pay £40 or more for a random 7" single that you don't have a clue who designed the cover for or what it is.. (as far as I mind...)


Personally, if I'd got that one I'd have had it on ebay in minutes...

Problem is, that record regardless of whoever buys it, is bound to end up on the market at some point in time.. (and probably for an expotential price compared to its current value)

Does that mean whoever attempts to sell it in 20 years is going to face the same criticism?

It does seem quite a nonsense in my view..

/capitalist mode off....
