No, that is not my way of acting.
I've simply been too stupid to think thrice about buying a rare CD for a few bucks (even more if there are 3 copies in "New condition" for 4€ each).

Nothing too stupid man! You just need more time for searching on information before buying and of course you have to ask seller about matrix numbers etc. I think most of us doing it. Nowadays "blind buying" is a some kind of risk, especially what regard to rarities.

Yeah, you're right.
Next time I need to do some more research if it comes to rare items.
I just had a look on Musik-sammler.de if there is an entry of another pressing (bootleg, re-release etc), that's it.
I thought that this band/cd would not be that interesting to make bootlegs of, now I'm a bit wiser.
Keep this CD though, just for the music/listening pleasure.

Uwe, it's happened to us all at one point (well, most at least). No worries.
I think my first bootleg was the Intruder debut, I found a buy-it now for (I think?) 15 euro and bought it on the spot. Turned out bootleg, but it was worth the risk I guess (this was before the davesrockrelics onslaught, when this CD was still rare as hens teeth).
