Perhaps some rich re-seller? 1 dollar for 1 LP isn't that bad afterwards ... + 300.000 free CDs

warning:
he took the photo from another auction, which is always dodgy...
The shiny blue background is the trademark of one of the biggest psych sellers on ebay:

He did explain this though.
"THE PHOTO IS NOT OF THE ACTUAL ITEM AS MY CAMERA HAS TEMPORARILY GONE OUT OF ORDER."
I really want to hear the music now. The way he described is makes it sound really awesome.

FBC is NOT a metal record
This is AOR with some Prog type keyboards.
He lists it every few weeks with a differant price up and down. Last time it was 400.
This was a $50 AOR record for years and then people started to HYPE as Hard Rock / Metal and the price went up
If I have time this weekend I will post it up

The Pic came from this auction
FBC - "Worth a Fortune" LP, on their own private label, (no label) from 1982. This is a original US private pressing of a super rare progressive rock album, with a 70's sound. Out of Indiana. The cover is in VG++ condition. The disc is in near mint condition. No reserve. Winner pays for shipping. Please view our other auction items. Thanks.

Actually $1 per LP in this case is VERY bad. This "collection" is a store inventory liquidation, and I can guarantee you at least 50% or more of it are the utter-junk common crap vinyl you can imagine - bought at wholesale for less than $0.10 per pop.
This auction is a scam, a free ebay advertisement pilot. I bet whoever "bough" it will not pay and he will keep relisting it until it sells for the amount he desires. Just check the last revisions he made at the bottom of the page:
"1. $3million is a ridiculously low price to start with. The owner of the collection has turned down offers for far more over the years, including an offer of $28million nine years ago. It's being sold this way now because his life circumstances have changed.
2. If there are no bids, we plan to re-list it immediately. But once it's re-listed, publicity will be far greater than it is now. We've been inundated with media requests world-wide, and have done interviews nearly non-stop. In a matter of hours or days, the collection will be seen in major electronic and print media world-wide, taking our story to a new audience even beyond the reach of eBay. This valuable collection is soon to be seen for the first time by tens, if not hundreds of millions of people around the world.
Quite frankly, we welcome the prospect of no bids at this time. The collection will fetch a higher price when it's re-listed."
He is scamming with hope to attract some gullable rich person to believe this "collection" is worth the top dollar. He may succeed coz the media likes such stories and will spread the word, and his auction is on every board already drawing people's attention.

I guess I was right, the buyer is not a registered user anymore. It couldnt been eBay NARUing him, coz it is less than 24 hours since the auction ended. I bet the bidder canceled his account himself, thus giving the seller chance to automatically recover the ebay fees and relist.
It is a scheme to bull some rich gullible buyer into thinking this "collection" does have value in it and forking big bucks
