    Hey. Just want to say, i'm not one of those who are trying to sell the mag for 4-500,-NOK and more, that ebay thing is just ridicilous. i don't know what the asking price on facebook was though, is it removed, anyone know what that was? anyways, i'm not looking to take advantage of people, i've sold a couple for what i and those who bought it considered a fair and reasonable price, and they seemed very happy about it. So if i can allow myself to say: Fudge those A-holes who are trying to make people sell their car to buy a record for their collection, and destroying a good thing for others. Grattitude and respect to MotorPsycho for what they did for Sorgenfri. ! J.

      hey jaxxxn, that somehow sounded completly different in your mail, how much did you want some days ago? ah, yes, 400 nok excl. shipping.

      #26485

      eh, no that's not right and u know it, check your mail again, i said 300 ex. shipping!

      #26486

      hey:) yes, i have one for sale, 300,- nok ex. shipping. ( that's a copy of the mail.. ) that's under 400 incl. shipping. i said i could sell it on the street for 200-400 easy, without asking for it, if people are happy to give that, i don't say no when i need the money. Jeeezuz you're a whiny whiner, man..

        i could publish your whole emails here, but i think a contentwise responde is not necassary here, your postings speak for themself.

            Ok folks..I My opinion the problem is not 200-300 or 500 nkr. The problem is that one person want 520 dollars for itttttt….I think thats why Bent is angry not about those 500 norwegian kroners..

            As long as the profit goes to the Sorgenfri seller price doesn’t matter. At the end of August some Sorgefri sellers sold the mag for NOK 500-1000,- In my opinion it’s good that the Sorgenfri sellers could make good money on this. Buying it for 500 and selling it for 500 again seems fair to me.

            According to the tax rolls the $520 eBay seller has a decent income, a job, roof over his head, money in the bank etc. Ripping desperate fans for $520, making money on a courtesy by the band for people that may not have all these things that we take for granted makes me want to puke!

              @ Have Fun: If that's true, it would make the whole thing even more abominable, yet I'm wondering how you got that info about the seller. What do you mean by "tax roll"? I always thought that kind of info is private… Or can you see more of the seller's identity when you have an account yourself? I'm not on ebay, that's why I've got no idea. I'n just interested in how that kind of info is available…

              Cheers

              EDIT: OK, found out what tax rolls are, but is that info really open to public? And wouldn't you need the real name of the seller?

                I think trying to sell it for 500 dollars is just ridiculous.

                I also think selling it to a fellow psychonaut tripling the price is not very cool.

                    He does sell some cool items, but the prices are just insane. I mean, $1750 for the Blissard vinyl with 33 1/3 t-shirt & button? If that's not a robbery in broad daylight, then I don't know what is.

                      Ebay crooks. They abuse the whole idea of "limited" and "rare". Sadly that's basically quite accepted. So there's often one guy who buys in the end and these sellers can go on. I understand the emotional value of precious items and collecting but I'd rather miss out once or twice than supporting these greedy fucks.

                      Great that Bent/the boys did issue an official statement. What do you do as a self supporting artist without limitless backup from a major company? As soon as you release special goodies, the vultures are drooling. But as it was brilliantly put: fuck them.

                      Heck, lucky those who got the Sorgenfri issue in any regular way and we others simply congratulate. :)

                        true. i hope those sellers aren't fellow psychonauts themselves though.

                        i'd say speculating in art is quite uncool by default. art is provided by the artist. so pay him/her right and no one else.
