This item is from Australia as Paul said.

Most of the Land of the Kings lps are on white vinyl. These were offered / distributed to a ltd. number of collectors by email. I assume, most of the usual suspects around here were on the distribution list and hence, had the chance to buy a copy :roll: :wink:

The very first Sisters bootleg, hard to imagine back then everything that would follow, or that a band who at that point had yet to release their first LP - would only manage 3 (so far) in their entire career.

For almost 30 years old - this one looks in superb condition!

Indeed, especially if you compare the price with the one for this Greek idiot box ...

This "Greek idiot box" was one of the first Greek bootlegs and I have to admit I bought a copy some time ago :oops:

However, compared to the latest Greek bootlegs, it's not such a bad item IMO, but of course overpriced ...

:lol: ... sorry Victim Of Circumstance ... I should have known that... :wink:

Only when I looked at it today, it seemed so very much a sad idea of how to sell a Knockin' On Docks' Door bootleg at all ...

For months if not years, there seems to be nobody interested to buy any of them. So it looks like someone put an "idiot box" around it,

and is now waiting to see if it sells for 5 times the price ... :innocent:


Honestly, I do like the Knockin' On Docks' Door bootleg. The Sisters of Mercy playing in Hamburg in the 1990s ... :eek: :notworthy: ...

I wish I had been there! And of course, I have one of these 2LP things myself ... bought in 1992 ... without any box, though ... :wink: ...

The sleeve doesn't look good as it is the case with most copies of the Halloween 2 lp. Expensive, but not really overpriced given the rarity IMO :roll:

Btw, yesterday 2 nice auctions ended. A blue Stonehenge lp was sold for €127.89 and a red Cryptic Flowers lp for €113.13. Both auctions were won by the horstchoclate guy, I think. I was in both auctions (and I think, you were also J), but my final bid wasn't even close :urff: I wonder, what the maximum bids the buyer were...

Usually not, I agree. However, I ONCE (in more than a dozen tries) won an auction against him a few years ago, but for the cost of a ridiculous price to be honest ...
