Insane Ebay Auctions (OLD'n'locked)

"Normally"? Iz always sells that high, never saw it under 1500 €. It was once on ebay, Mr. Perez from Solitude Aet. sold his copy. It was sold to Japan "cheap" for I think 1350 US$ (US$ once was 1: 1,1 or 1:1,2) I missed the auction cause I was in France for holidays then. Would have bought at once for that price. Perez copy was mint.

The actual item has water damage, no lyric sheet and although the seller claims to be a member etc. he has zero feedbackl. Dangerous item. I once paid money to a guy like this and money was gone, no Milita...so pay attention....Reserve price is set at probably 3000 US$....

Peter or anyone else
Please help me understand a few things about this auction.

Tell me what you see in the Pic's he has listed?

Did he tell you there was water damage? it's not in the pic

I sent the guy a email and his reply was crazy.

I have a bad feeling someone is going to really get burned on this one.

Click on the Cover of the auction !
All the pics are from Texasundergroundmetal.com ! No pic from the seller himself ! And why is there the cover from the "No submissien" demo ???

The sellers reply was.
This is for vinyl only "WE NEVER DID A DEMO / TAPE"

"We only put out 1 recording and it was on vinyl only"

But yes as you stated in the picture there is the J-Card to the last demo
Smells bad to me.

That's what i was wondering myself before. Where did these crappy low resolution scans come from? Probably from a site like metalpage or metal archives or TMU. But certainly they do NOT seem like scans he made himself from his own (?) copy. Appearing out of nowhere and starting such auctions is something that must make, at least the older ebayers, very suspicious.

Water damage? Are you kidding? Where the hell is that?

99% this guy is a real crook.

Click on the Cover ! It's directly linked to Texasundergroundmetal.com !

And after this site MILITIA did 2 demos !

Fils Du Metal · Post by **Fils Du Metal** » Thu Nov 29, 2007 9:28 pm

Yes, I wrote this to warn most people I know which will bid. I asked for some pics and he don't give pics. As I said I have been ripped off already one time with a Militia so I am always careful.

I asked for condtions and he told water damage and no lyric sheet so for me not interesting anyway. My copy has only a copied lyric sheet so that was the reason.

So actually someoneshould mail all bidders, the ones I know are informed.

Glockose · Post by **Glockose** » Thu Nov 29, 2007 9:45 pm

He told me it was in very good shape and didn't mention an insert or not.

I would hate for any of these very nice folks to get burned

I just got the following email when I asked for a picture of the actual item:

"Working on getting a pic of item on ebay,these jpegs are not from some website, they are from the Militia website. thanks, Phil Achee"

so texas metal underground is now the Milita website????
