Insane ebay auctions - CD

First this guy from Sweden, now him - what is the point of repeatedly listing the items and pulling them off? It only ruins ones reputation.

I think about the Drowned cds he had problems with people offering/bidding outside eBay and then after the "deal" they disappeared (if I'm not wrong he said that in the description of the relisted auction)... the latest auctions shut down probably it's eBay because of non paying account seller or somethin' like that ...

I think, he doesnt wanna sell these cds ...just get attention -- for his other auctions maybe.

I dont believe he really got that high offers outside eBay.

Is this CD really THAT rare???

I remember the music as being very dark and evil, so I NEED to get this one, but not for that price, for sure...

Yes, it's pretty rare (I think 500 copies each of CD and vinyl were pressed), but that price seems over the top. Not sure what the CD normally goes for, but I think I only paid $40 for the LP version. Killer demos.

$40 would be a reasonable price I'd pay for the CD/LP immediately.
Yes, you're right, the songs totally kick ass, that's why I need this compilation so bad.

i remember the cd was sold for $6~80 a couple years ago on ebay. i thought the price is also so high at that time.

That's optical illusion. All those late nineties finnish cd's were usually used as ashtrays at saturdays after you found them from your pocket after friday night...

All the above auctions fail to combine the epic stupidity of bidders on this cd, this cd is a fucking bootleg hahahaha what the hell.

Right in this guys copy for sale he says what the bootleg matrix number is, you think the buyers would have looked at his for sale and instantly found that one is a bootleg.

"This is the MEGA RARE one and only original very 1st pressing limited to 950 copies NOT the lame bootleg with matrix #TSD EYE01 floating around."

Not insane but a guy from italy sold one for about $150 at the same time, although that one did have 2 pinholes one in booklet one in back insert, and this one didn't, and that one was listed on a foreign ebay site so not as many people would have seen it.

This cd goes up to 300$, I would say it's almost normal to see it for 150$ average ^^
One of the few cases in which the boot hasn't killed its value.

Yeah I just posted that to note the price difference between it on a foreign site and the american site, that makes a huge difference sometimes. The boot didn't kill the value since this is one of the rarest thrash cds out there, except for those 2 copies I haven't seen it on ebay for close to half a year. Usually I don't see bootlegs kill the value of the original unless its for a rock/non metal cd or if the cd was on a major record label/ had many copies pressed. Their second cd, the visitor is much easier to find an original copy of.

Haven't seen that $150 CD, but from what you say it looks that this is the copy that went quite high (and $247 for regular is far from that).
