Heartland

Well... it seems as if someone has decided to cash in and turn them old boots into cash machines

Go figure...

Someone on heartland, no less.

At least he isn't trying to make a total fortune out of it. The Buy It Now was only 7.99.

At least us weeding folks don't pay anything mor than postage!

Sorry, but I see two sides to this.

1. It's rare, so selling something that probably cost him a considerable amount is a viable option.

2. It's a copy not the original, so making money through "deception" is wrong. But, he's been 100% honest with the description and £8 is a bargain compared to £100. So fair play to him for making a rare item available cheaper than the average price sold.

If after paying £8 for this, can help get the buyer into trading/collecting more concerts, then that's a good thing! After all, £10 spent on Glasgow 1985 six months ago has got me where I am today!

I am not being critical of him for selling it, especially as he is up front in the description in what the item is. It is more of a comment regarding events in the spring of 2001. (No, he is not the same seller.)

There was no "original", as that also was a homemade cd.

Why don't you wait until that rat puts on yet another of his set of 50 (yeh yeh, he'll make more than that, I bet) and then do a dutch auction for 50 @ 7.99 each. You'd clean up for sure!

I'm serious. It's better that people pay £7.99 rather than £150.

...Or are you the one selling the £150 version?

150 quid version, no not me sir !

Though you got to had it to that guy / girl for having the bottle !!

Oh by the way to clear 1 thing up, there is 3 different versions of the wea mixes cd

version 1) has 18 tracks (the 18th being phontom) this is the best sounding one, though my copy doesnt play

version 2) 17 tracks bit more hissy but still pretty good (my copy)

I can confirm that allfear has weeded WEA Mixes and Kenny Giles to me.

You could just download the thing from The Doktor....

along with many many more courtesy of some lovely H'landers who have paid a visit to my Clinik..



Any one who really must have it can get a fully zipped copy from a little PM.

The Doktor is now out.

Clinik opens Monday AM.

Adios.

ps - surgery fees are zero. Just like the NHS. Do NOT go private....
