I don't know what happened with James, but obviously he can't make money anymore by re-selling rarities as it was in the past. I do not believe he can't recognize boot from original after so many years of collecting/selling/trading originals and being in this business. He started to play dirty bootleg game and he choose his own way. Sometimes it's happens with trustworthy old collectors, but i think the only reason here it's money of course.

But it says "no boot". So it should be official, right?

exactly. this is the biggest part of the problem. it's cheating. I actually sent him messages about those, let's see if he reacts.

not about bootleg. but i always thought the condition grading (mint/excellent/good etc) of many ebay sellers is joke.

CONDITION (INSERTS) : EXCELLENT - NEAR MINT (1 spine missing)

1 spine missing. then the CD is junk.

if insert is missing, the condition is MINT ???

Item location: Tver, Russian Federation

This is enough to be 99% certain this is a bootleg :)

But this is still not as cynical as what kreator did.

I don't think he thought of making it look like an original by doing so, otherwise he wouldn't sell it for 12$... :)

look at this bootleg of Urm The Mad. This is the best attempt at forging the Sony DADC matrix I've seen.
