There is a picture of the matrix in the auction... It is fake. Not hard to tell if you've ever owned a CD made by Dureco, totally different font/size and layout. Strange that they've started bootlegging lighters now too though :lol:

Yea i noticed, what i found interesting is that the common burzum - s/t bootleg has dureco (01) ... as matrix, this one is updated to dureco [01]

Whats also stranger with Burzum cds is that sometimes the originals sell like 150$ less than the bootlegs, heh :)

The Merciless - The Awakening boot also has (01), I still have one of these sitting on my shelf somewhere :evil:

Whether [01] or (01), this Aske bootleg is a lot easier to identify as fake than the Burzum/Merciless boots, those ones are very close to originals, this one is very obviously fake..

prices on ebay.de are nearly as high as on ebay.com, cause at the moment there are lots of chinese,russian etc guys winning most of the auctions, even re-sellers like extremusicrarities, dr.pus, m-rulez etc have no chance anymore, eventhought they buy CDs for 40€ and resell them for 60$ :lol:

Brainless money churners. My neighbor, which is an eBay employee (our house is only about 1 kilometer away from eBay headquarters) loves those sellers. He spoke very fondly of them yesterday while polishing his brand new Mercedes Benz convertible. Who said the economy is in crisis :lol:

I agree with the statement that prices on ebay.de are mostly somewhere up there with those on ebay.com (or maybe even higher for arcane LPs).

Here's one auction I tried to win (4 bidders put a higher bid than me!):

From same seller:

Another Accuser auction ...

Not even two years ago I sold this on ebay for €50. Still have my personal copy. The more I see these prices the more I'm tempted to unload all my rare CD's, but I guess if I'd sell them I'd never get a 'top-price' like these auctions.
