There were 3 for sale on Ebay recently. 2, in great condition, went for around 200 apiece. Another, I think, went for a little less due to condition, of course.

Hopefully this means there is a rash of them being sold (i.e. people see what they can get for theirs and the wheels start turning) and you can snag one.

Good luck........I get the feeling no one is looking to sell their vinyl around here, they are too revered........

Thumbs up

thanks for the link, that one was just put on. i mentioned "real" earlier because i seem to remember some people talking about some counterfeit copies some time ago. has anyone ever come into contact with any of the fakes? are there any ways to tell which are originals? does anyone know what the matrix numbers of the true original pressing are? any solid ideas on whether there were 1500 or 1000 made? i'd love to know!

....and i just noticed that according to your picture, there was only 1 test press. i may have already updated this on spfc...but not sure, since i was looking at an old cached copy of the site.

i'll have to remember to check when spfc.org comes back up.

Condition: Record--NM. Cover--Ex with several soft bends. Plastic Cover with group name outlined--Ex

SCANS AVAILABLE--Please request by artist and label AND ******* your email address.

Grading [visual]: NM, Ex, VG+, VG, VG-

Please see my other records for sale.
What's that "plastic cover with group name outlined"?

What does the second last line mean? Are those all his possible visual gradings? As in: VG- = the worst I have seen?
