Yes, this is perfect bootleg replica of all times. I never seen such a ideally imitation of P+O Pallas "pixel" font. BUT(T): 1. Fact. Pallas started to press CDs in 1987 (Matrix of this boot says 09-86 = September of 1986) 2. "Made In Germany" on CD face. It must be written &quo...

Source(s)? Well, I have most of them. Besides it's a series with catalogue inside. As there is no any album released after 1985 (e.gSlayer's Hell Awaits was released in 1985), there is balance of probability that the series was released in 1985. If it was released earlier it couldn't contain Hell A...

Yes I would say so. Although the dates on the CD's vary from 1982 to 1985 but these are probably dates of first LP releases. Maybe some of the disks were released in 1984 but 1985 id definitely the deadline.

I would like to warn everyone against ebay user japanrarehunter and his shill bidding army. http://www.ebay.com/sch/japanrarehunter/m.html?_ipg=&_from=&_nkw=&_armrs=1&LH_Complete=1&rt=nc He sold 300+ Cd's on ebay, some of them quite rare and literally three shill bidders placed b...

Hello! I noticed there has been a flood of bootleg copies of that CD on ebay recently. As it is the only Scratch release I still don't have, a would like to ask for the features, which can easily distinguish bootleg from original. Wahat is the matrix number of bootleg (if any) printing quality etc. ...

Well in my opinion paying 100$ for Au Pairs is OK, and it's worthy paying for that one. It's a rare one. In this thread there is a still active ebay link, when Au Pairs CD was sold for $123 two years ago. http://www.ebay.com/itm/AU-PAIRS-PLAYING-DIFFERENT-SEX-RARES-ROADRUNNER-SLIMLINE-CD-RARE11-/250...

The graphic on top of the disc is also different. This is the red rectangle design from the second half of the 80's which would mean it's a later pressing then the slimline if, in fact, the slimline exists. the catalogue number (99##) suggests that this CD was first released in 1984. Hello! In fact...

Here is the link for excellent slimline case to replace if you have back sticker:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/310017292924

It hasn't been sold for about two years, so you can haggle about the price a little bit.

By the way "slayerhatesusall" wich slimlines do you have?

Well, Have you bought it back? The point is that some time ago I bought Hell Awaits copy exacly as you described. back sticker glued to the ordinary slim jewel case. I had to spare a slimline case from "Wham - Make it Big" to "restore" the cd to the original release. Best regards...
