Dont be afraid!

look at the picture from the Tracklist of the joy division LP at the left starts a picture!
But on the VU Gymnasium LP tracklist is no picture at the left so maybe it was a mistake from the seller
and he took the wrong picture for this auktion.

LAST NIGHT I ASKED SELLER TO CONFIRM SHIPMENT TO ME, BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED A REPLY SO FAR.
REGARDING THE OTHER SELLER, HE IS A WELL-RATED EBAY SELLERS. SELLING CHEAPER BECAUSE IS NOT A GREEN-WAX 100 LIMITED COPY?
PROBABLY. HE HAS CHANGED PICS NOW SHOWING THE VU RECORD. SAME PICS THAN "OUR FIRST SELLER" BUT THE COVER W/GREENWAX PIC.

Look at the feedback he got on ebay today:
"Great cd, never despatched, suspect seller pocketed money as cd is rare."

Seller got three bad feedbacks within the past month. It seems that some of us are caught up in this a bit too much. There are many of us who are a bit more cautious and are taking a "wait and see" attitude. I, for one, have had some deals go sour regarding dealing with bootleggers. We have waited for 40 plus years for these tapes. Let's exercise a bit of restraint. Make no mistake, I want to hear them as much as anyone... 8-)

Ha ha ha.

Sorry but that's the sound of my insane delight and glee. I'm late for work nursing a birthday hangover and so could pick up the day's post. I've even found a way of putting my old amp's phono stage through my current setup - so I'm giving it a quick spin.

Here's the proof of the pudding:

(The toy soldier is to give the picture a real sense of scale.)

And here's what IT sounds like:

Crunch crunch crunch....'Doug and Sally inside...' Screeeee... Crunch crunch crunch

Gotta Run Run Run.

Ha ha ha.
