Being a bootleg it's kinda expected, they were cheap enough for me to not care.

Can someone explain please why is it so bad for SKR for instance to sell bootlegs, while it seems there's no problem for you buying older bootlegs? Just out of curiosity, I'd like to see the diversity in your answers and if there's a serious reason behind that, when selling (or supporting by buying) bootlegs is a reprehensible deed by any means.

SKR is selling replicas, as in counterfeit imitations of other CDs while "labels" like Reborn Classics did nothing of the sort, they did not try to disguise their releases as a legit official press on for example Noise.
For some the Reborn Classics type of bootlegs are collectible since they differ greatly from any other pressing/release.

Variants of this discussion has been had before, many times, and some have different opinions. Search the forum to get input from more sides.

So a replica sold at the price of a normal CD should not really be a problem as well, right?

Making bootlegs, selling bootlegs, buying bootlegs (either fake replica or illegal pressings) should... no, MUST be avoided by everybody.

SKR not only sells counterfeit replicas, but also says that Metal Blade made bootlegs (!) so we have to shut up...this thing alone is enough to boycott him.

I see nothing on the items' description in SKR store stating that they are in fact bootlegs (for instance Fifth Angel or Sacred Warrior albums). Only the buyer's knowledge helps him know what he's really buying. Personnally I like to know what I buy exactly without having to research information and scans about every single semi-rare or rare CD I want to have. If some people are happy with replicas for $13, I don't care. But I feel sorry for the others who are fooled.

It must have been because the bad condition of the inserts.

Yeah, but it's still a good price I think.
