          Seems like people want to pay around 200 Euro for a copy of this LP. Think it's the third auction with bids in this range. Well, considering travel expenses (++) to Eindhoven, it might be cheaper after all. :wink:

          And no, I am NOT selling my copy, not even the spare one! :P

            This is the same seller that had two actions last week. Sucks that this dude buys 3 (at least) copies just make a fortune on ebay, while true psychonauts have no chance of even hearing this.

            There are a couple of other copies out there aswell. Way too expensive for me.

              One got sold earlier this week for $302.

              Oh, and here's another one. With a fixed price at $290, I'd say it's a bargain!

                Prices paid so far: EUR 140.16, EUR 186.26, $305.00, EUR 241.00

                It might even be worth it – if the money went into the pockets of the artists, but paying that kind of money to some dude cashing in on somebody else's work???

                  It just wasn't right to not limit the amount of LPs sold per persons to 1 or 2 items. Really makes you wonder why they didn't think / care of this.

                    @Fillmore: really strange indeed. Just limit it to 1 copy per person.

                    I can't express how wrong it is in my opinion to buy more than one copy of this record and sell if for this amount of money. If i understood correctly the records sold out during the show, so that means there where fans there who couldn't buy the record afterwards because some money-obsessed prick buyed multiple copies.

                    On the other hand, the prices only are this high because there are people who are willing give this much money for the lp. Anyway, i am very pleased with my copy. I guess if i ever really need money i just have to sell Strings & Stroop, Demon Box & Soothe. But then again i'd rather sell my kidney.

                      funny enough everyone talks about the $$$ and nobody about the songs/versions/sound of the LP ….

                        Hmm, good point.

                        True that – I've played it once, it's not really "Roadworks-standard", but it's ok.

                        Well, that's market economy for you – IMO it should be "one concert-ticket = one record", of course – or just preorder and pickup with the limitations – but again, if this were a "1 per person"-record, they'd still be sold on Ebay…

                            With the tracklist (Psychonaut/Go To California/Whole Lotta Diana/Come On In/Sheer Heart Attack), it's hardly likely that it sucks :lol:

                            I've only heard Sheer Heart Attack (from a bootleg), and that one falls under the category "lotsa fun". Esspecially if they included the funny spoken intro by Bent.

                            The remaining 4 tracks I haven't heard.
