stephen1966 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Whilst browsing through Discogs to see what I could waste this months pay packet on, I came across this:- http://www.discogs.com/sell/item/7866500 Way out of my league but my question to others is :- a) What is the most expensive BoC item you've ever come across? and, b) How much is too much, and for what?

OneToThirtySix Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Holy shit . . . that vinyl is over a grand US. The most I ever paid for a BoC album was that storybook version of the Geogaddi cover art, $25. All the other LPs I bought at about average price. But a grand for a test pressing . . . wow. It is mega-cool. I'll be right back, I'm gonna go win the lotto.

Guest magic0801 Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 How does someone go about getting their hands on that in the first place? Further more why would they then want to sell it?

stephen1966 Posted November 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I'd imagine, of the 10 pressed, the band would probably want 1 each. That leaves 8 copies worldwide and from my recollection, this is the 2nd time i've seen one up for grabs in six years. I'm telling you, those 50-100 copies each of the pre Twoism material must be punishable by death if released to the public. Oh, and while i'm at it, the morons bidding on this:- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BOARDS-OF-CANADA-UNK...A1%7C240%3A1318 Need locking up.

Terpentintollwut Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I didn't understand why he hasn't removed the signature either, it ruins everything... well, so does "Some Old Tunes" - I wonder what actually is on the disc.

Terpentintollwut Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 That was the intention, but it doesn't even make sense that way... if he had done research on the net, why out of all results would he have picked one of the few wrong titles he found/why would he not have copy-pasted the actual title or not have put any effort in getting it right since he doesn't know anything about it and is trying to give the fans information... :dizzy: Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/39859-credit-crisis-what-credit-crisis/#findComment-882525 Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephen1966 Posted November 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Somebody's come to their senses and closed the offending item. Cant see it being the seller as he was days away from making himself a few bob. Maybe the group themselves, or their inner circle got wind of it, and had it pulled. Shit, maybe it was genuine after all, i guess now we'll never know. Or will we...........? Join me again, same time next year for another meaningless topic regarding our favourite twiddlers of knobs.

stephen1966 Posted December 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 He/She's either well clued up on what's worth having, or they're employed by warp/skam and are on the receiving end of job cuts and thought i'll have that...that...one of those...two of them etc. After all, when was the last time Warp offered anything decent for sale? Indie record companies must tear their hair out when their biggest artist are reclusive perfectionists. Look at Creation and M.B.V. Five years and £250,000.00. Jesus, imagine if Warp gave BoC that much to produce an album.

Goiter Sanchez Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 (edited) I remember when this lenapiem guy won this blue test pressing on ebay... It was early 2006 I think. I was watching the thing and I distinctly remember that guy's name. A bunch of those expensive records lenapiem has came from that one seller (who was a former warp employee). As I recall the auction for this blue test pressing got up around 250 GBP... Good luck getting even close to the amount he's asking... Par for the course for Discogs sellers though.
