WARNING: THERE ARE ALOT OF THRASH REC BOOTLEGS SOLD ON EBAY ESPECIALLY FROM GREECE AND LIKE PLACES
Can anyone please explain me what the fuck does this mean? Have i missed something or am i just offended too easily?
Sounds to me like he is implying that Greek users on Ebay are all very suspect individuals who spend their time bootlegging CD's.

He probably got burned once and as such he is taring everyone with the same brush
Well, (at least in my own personal experience) the majority of metal bootleg CD's come out of greece.

An indicator of this is the Matrix Number that appears as just the album title.

I think more so because it's on Drowned Productions?
Most of the releases on Drowned & Repulse are highly collectable now.

It's from thallos81, but anyhow, how realistic is this price and can this one go any higher?

He would have outbid someone else (as randomcoils) & paid fuck all for it & then tries to go and sell it for 79.99! Some fool will buy it no doubt...

I think that seller is KATEDRA ex-Drummer's wife(She was manager back in 90s and as far as I know have the biggest amount of LPs at home)
I lost that one as it went for a bit over $80. How much do you think it should go for normally?
yeah, i lost it too, i was lower bidder than winner...
but have received Second chace offer and bought it!

...as it is private press of 500 copies, think it's fair price...

I got a second chance offer too, which makes me wonder just how many copies she's got.
I know I ain't doing much,
doing nothing means a lot to me.

And I won the auction...
But I wouldn't have paid more for it than i did.
Now I just have to find Mors Ultima Ratio. I have one guy that wants to sell it to me for about around 80 euros, but that is too much i think.

If you've got the original (similar looking bootleg also on the market) SELL IT.

I noticed the same thing.

I guess it has no bids for a reason.
