Hi there! I was looking for some lp records (bought my fist gramo last week :oops: ) and I chance on this:
(hope the link is visible)

http://aukro.cz/ShowItem2.php?item=3128 ... tabsAnchor

So what do you think? It's in czech but the most important things are clear for everyone (original Germany lp 1985 1st issue EX/EX). Costs cca 12 GBP. Quite cheap....... :?

Cheers.

The Mobile Fidelity is surely a good pressing and a good investment,

but it's not the original tracks - a combination of remastered first release and Japanese editions, IIRC.

I'd just buy the original release on ebay. A good copy shouldn't be more than a few quid. You can probably get the gatefold sleeve easily enough also. Wouldn't worry about it being collectable unless you're diving headlong into the world of Greek bootlegs and the like. :wink:

Fully seconded... :notworthy: ... and 12 GBP is an ok price.

Perhaps you can find one in mint (best) condition or one with a a gatefold cover, if you are patient ...

But depending on the price you are prepared to pay that could take some time ... :wink: ...

I don't care about price, I just don't want to buy something "bad". But this looks good, doesn't it? And 12 GBP is ok.

If you're really not sure then try discogs as sam 1 suggested

http://www.discogs.com/sell/list?master_id=2795&page=1

You'll find it cheaper & all the sellers are rated too.
Cheers.

Just created an account and probably will buy it here. Though it's not cheaper for me 'cause of postage.
This one seller from aukro.cz is Czech and so am I. But the discogs seems better...
