May it be anything legit? If not, the price is downright ridiculous...
Bootleg.

Does anyone know if another bootleg of Target "Master Project Genesis" was released lately? But this time without mispelled words as "proibited!" ?????

There was quite a bit of talk about it here some time ago. Very well made bootleg.

Wow...

I've read most of the posts and man,this is discouraging! I've found a lot of useful info in there! Now i know that i may own near a dozen of those CD boots.
Coroner "Grin" ans self titled one,Purgatory "Tied To The Trax,Trouble self titled,Razor "Custom Killing",Deathrow "Deception Ignored" and many more i presume. I think i might have fake Blitzkrieg Japan pressings also. Oh my...

I don't buy from ebay store cdwasteland anymore,wich is another name for sonicagerecords i suppose...

Why do you think your Deception Ignored CD is a bootleg?

Because i bought it from a seller in Greece with a "buy it now" option and was cheap. I plan to check a couple of CDs of mine this weekend trying to figure out what could be bootlegs.

For now my rule is "don't buy from a Greek seller" off ebay...

If you'll see it from Mr. Retrospect at the same cheap price will you buy it?

How many bootleg versions of Viking - Do Or Die are available? Mine copy is with Lost And Found logo and catalog number: LFR1001 (the same is on the matrix). I wonder if this is a "bootleg of a bootleg" or something :)

I'm sure Lost And Found is an official re-issue label!?

Don't mind the peanut gallery.

He's just upset because your using something that he lacks, common sense.

It is ... but maybe the bootlegers used their logo ? Or maybe he's talking about "Man of Straw" ^^

Are these bootlegs? At least they look a bit fishy to me.

And another mystery, are the releases of High Roller Records and Sentinel Steel records generally considered as bootlegs?

I know at least a few bands have their releases only through these labels and they are to be considered official (as the band lists them in their discographies).
For example Helvetets Port on High Roller and Gothic Knights on Sentinel Steel.
I would say that at least parts of the labels catalogs are legit.
