I don't really see a problem with selling original 70-90s boot LPs cos they are collectors items and they had a limited run. It is against the trading 'rules' just to knock up a CDR and nick someones artwork for money.

Yeah, LP's are collectors items. CD-R's aren't collectible. Now, if the person had a Buy-It-Now price of $0.50 with a $1 shipping and handling fee I wouldn't have any issues. And how much would you like to bet that the cover-art shown in the ad will not be there when you get your disc?!

Hey guys, read this line of bullshit. i sent an e-mail asking why they charge so much to ariana83b@hotmail.com :



hey michael,
thanks for your interest,
i m charging "so much" because I work on it really hard...
I m digitalising all analog tapes... I am remastering, cutting them,...
I search the right foto with the right style of tipology,....
the fact that it s iligal is another theme.... first that might be another reson why its expenseive, because its very hard to find, one person paid me 200$ for a copy... i mean, i initialy sent those 3 cd's at 14,99... so is it really that expensive? If youre interested, i can make you an offer if you take a pack and for example not add the extra artwork etc... greetings...

We can always try. The ePay ID has sold a lot of these - although it looks like a lot of "phantom" buyers if you know what I mean. Lots of buyers in the past couple of months who are no longer registered users. However, someone may have paid $200 for the Warhol Tapes. I sent him an e-mail letting him know he paid $200 for MP4-sourced material.
