Anyone knows if the copies that have appeared recently on ebay, the covers are originals or copies?
Apparently has appeared more copies than usual, and some who bought these copies say that the cover seems to have been done now. I have hear from several people that the vinyls are the originals bu not the sleeves.

The matrix code of the vinyl is:
DS X0 A /N 3 DM I
DS X0 B /N 3 DM I
To say something about the cover one has to hold such a new one in own hands and what about the innersleeve?
The cover was extremely thick lackered, looks almost like laminated. To produce something like that nowadays means alot of work/money as pressing plants don't produce covers like these anymore nowadays only with extra payment.

Every now and then several copies of some old and sought after album appear on eBay and you can`t always tell if these are original records. I remember there was quite a few copies of "Trenton City Murders" floating around a few months ago, and some Swedish guy would sell at least five copies of Wizzard`s 'Ninya Warrior' and of other swedish 7' in April.

The band is still selling them, incl. copies of the Charity 7". These are no bootlegs.

I think a new bootleg series will start floating around...
Get ready for those Blue Avatars and the Saint's Revenge 7"s...

And they did not even bother to print a picture sleeve, just a front and a back card.

Seems like a professional con artist. On the other hand people are idiots. $131 for that horrible Maiden shirt?

It's not that hard anymore nowadays to get pro-printed sleeves. Every pro-digital printer can print on any paper you want and it looks like pro-printed while it costs just 1 Euro. And at ebay you can do you own vinyls for about 20-30 Euros, just a single copy. So it's a nice nu business. He'll surely find a buyer as that 10 copies thing looks tempting.

a shame indeed, i wonder who made it. Also that Alpha Centauri listed has to be a boot i guess?

That really is a shame. There was supposed to be a reissue a few years ago, but nothing materialised of that. I think one of the band members even posted a few things here at one stage. Can anyone confirm this?
