Figure out your own absolute maximum amount you're willing to pay, the time the auction ends, hope for the best...and make like this guy. -->

That means his max price is higher. It would work the same for you if you just put in your max price at the beginning. Say your max price is $50.50 and he puts in a bid of $49.50. As soon as he puts in the bid for $49.50, you will automatically counter with a $50 bid.

true to an extent - but as long as you're okay with the selling fees and you're honest there should be no problems

also, ben, this is off topic, but i ran into this earlier this week, and i think it's wrong: http://www.splra.org/wiki/index.php?title=Tsp1995-12-12

it's about pro#1a: the thru the eyes of ruby that was available on the official website is not from this show, but from 1995-10-23. (they're wearing the same clothes as in the bwbw video of the same show, for example off the launch cd-rom.)

the original realmedia files can be found here: http://www.mediafire.com/?7cqx5g1nkfy7q

no idea why it suddenly stops. there's plenty of tape left in the cassette.
maybe not enough for the rest of the show, but definitely enough for a couple of extra songs.

next hidden track, at the very end of the tape: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sW_ePQRvrKI
(beenie man ft. mya - girls dem sugar)
also released by virgin, in 2000.

this video has numbers and stuff at the bottom of the screen though, as if it's not the final version of the video yet.

so, this has two songs [Blew Away / SIYL] that are not available anywhere on video or in soundboard audio....Is there any chance to transfer it? It's possible that this is an upgrade to the videos of the rest of the show too...

i believe age of innocence isn't available on video or in sbd audio yet either. (also: the beginning of rock on on this tape.)

no idea how i'd get this transferred. any hints?

possible upgrade: dunno. i don't think i've seen the other video sources for this show.
if this gets transferred, it would be the whole thing, i assume. so then you can compare.
