If I could have 1 cent every time ... :?

Mr. Stephane "What Banana" waited until the closed early auction link expired to list it :lol:

edit: aaaand it's sold in no time for 1000$ :roll:
I'm pretty sure this isn't what meets the eye.

But that one went away for about 400$ already in 2009, I think along with Darkened Reality for the same price.

I just have times I'm not interested in collecting or following auctions on ebay, so that can happen that I'm not up to date completely ;)

It's not that, I was saying you totally missed what I meant with my post ...

And about the link you posted ... that's a bootleg. I hope you didn't buy it ?

Okay, tell me what you meant then ;)
Nah, didn't bought it, but how did you see it's a bootleg?

Because pic and description are exactly the same ones this bootlegs reseller uses all the times with also different ebay usernames, plus if you look at the feedbacks you see he sold several copies of the same fake replica cds over and over.

Anyway, even if it's not a boot (let's pretend it isn't), makes no sense to post that link in this thread :p should go to the "bargains" one I guess ^^

For the rest, you have pvt.

I thought paying $60 for my copy quite some time ago was high :lol:

There is also an auction website only here in Switzerland, there is one seller who seems to have every fuckin' thrash CD. For example I saw Degradation - Revelation In Blood, which I never saw anywhere else, I stopped bidding at about 100 CHF, which is around 110$, don't know how high it ended up) but the craziest one was Assorted Heap - Experience Of Horror going away for around 440$! :shock:

It was a local shill bidding, i am more than sure. Hard to believe that somebody could buy this (great without any doubts) cd for such an incredible amount of money.

No it's not shill bidding, I can assure you it. There are 2-3 heavy bidders (I know one of them) who don't want to lose any auction, plus they are full of money, and that's the result.
It's crazy as most of the auctions end way more than ebay.com itself, infact that guy partially 'retired' from ricardo and now only bid on ebay.com, "it's cheaper" he said lol ! :lol:

Exactly, his name is Grimlord, right? Interesting is also that ricardo has a dead-line system if you bid in the last 3 minutes the auction will last 3 minutes longer, and the official deadline on that Assorted Heap CD was about 8 pm and it officially ended on about 10 pm :lol:
Some items are more expensive on there (mostly the items from the mentioned seller) but I can also find some bargains on there, for example I saw Perfect Progeny on there two times, and they both ended at only about 60$ (I picked up one of them :D )
