Hahah, there were no bids when I checked it a couple of hours ago. Would love to have this, I'm sure I couldn't afford it. Bummer.

Bet it'll get shill-bidded to hell and back, not that it would require that to go for astronomical prices.

I would like to have a copy but I don't bid on items from dealers that use shill bids.

I know a few copies of this turned up a couple of years ago, anyone know how many? I know it wasn't many, but maybe it was enough to satisfy all the mega-bidders like Andi?

even if it ends for 6666.6 dollars strappado will still need the winner to register on his forum before he sends it to him..

Is there anyway of stopping the auction then? I know Stormspell's been talking about certain "ebay powers" before, surely they could be applied in a case like this?

Didn't that strappado guy actually found 4 or 5 copies of that record last year ?

I even got a message on Facebook advertising the auction. Fat chance I'll even consider bidding...
