Another rappard-related SY release!

rappard · 08.24.2007, 02:06 AM

Unfortunately this one isn't band-approved:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=300144409577&ssPa geName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=020

Oddly flattering and disgusting at the same time. It has to be my recording - no other from State-X has surfaced, so I assume I was the only taper there.

And I thought they didn't even make silver bootlegs anymore - last time I was at Camden Market, everything was on CD-R.

Thanks to SkinnyPaul for sending me the link.

I'd want to disassociate myself from that simply because of the awful cover.

nicfit · 08.24.2007, 03:33 AM

Damn, is there a way to "report" that as a bad item/auction or something? like we can do with "bad posts" here?

That's said, what's your cut on the final price, martin?

Same here - I've seen better mobile phone pics.

I already emailed eBay, but they're notoriously unwilling to do anything about bootlegs. Usually they only get their fat behinds moving when a record company contacts them. Such a lovely non-litigious society, wouldn't you agree?

And my cut was enough to send a sharp shiny new razor to Italy soon - watch your mailbox!

You mean my recording, or the bootleg? If you've heard the latter, how does it sound compared to my original dimeadozen.org seed?

And why your ridiculously large sig?

scott v · 08.24.2007, 01:09 PM

Oddly enough i saw this exact thing at the little local record store, the only guy really left in my area who has a storefront that sells old and out of print/used vinyl and he carries some cds as well and some of them are bootlegs... well he had this particular boot, and i looked at the whole thing, the info on the ebay auction is correct, not sure how legit that label is or some sort of made up thing but it is not a true silver cd!!! its one of those SILVER CDRS! and they were creative enough to print an ink label professional looking enough to trick the casual person. as there are obvious clues about cdrs... it doesn't have the inner markings (like mastering info our etched numbers like on alot of official and massed produced cds) it has a stamped black number on the non-silver portion of the inner part of the actual plastic which is a giveaway that its a cdr!!! i listened to it but didn't buy it, its of decent quality not soundboard but a good audience recording (not great as i remember the vocals and one guitar is abit buried in the mix). the inner photos are back cover photos are better than what is shown in the auction, but not much better. looks similar to those classic boots from the 90's...

nicfit · 08.24.2007, 06:43 PM

where's atari's post???

Danny Himself · 08.24.2007, 06:46 PM

He deletes a lot of his posts. Blink and you'll miss them.

nicfit · 08.24.2007, 06:47 PM

Blink might well be my least favourite SY song. ha!

_tunic_ · 08.25.2007, 07:22 AM

price is already at US $21,50

nicfit · 08.25.2007, 09:58 AM

what about making a fake ebay id named after a link to follow to get the torrent or a link to a copy upped on sendspace or something , and bid 100$ so nobody will (well, should??) offer more and it will be shown on the page?? What would be the consequences?

A rift in the space/time continuum.

Sounds nice. Maybe I could end up seeing SY in the eighties thanks to some time warping.

Armenia · 08.25.2007, 11:24 AM

Hey, I was at that gig. It was great!

I don't recall seeing anyone else recording that show either. I'm sure you were the only one Martin. It's this type of shit that ruins it for tappers like you. The cheek!

Drop me a line and I'll do a B&P.

_tunic_ · 08.26.2007, 04:48 AM

got a tip from a fellow Dime member:

Quote:

if the Dime mods can get the details of that seller's pc (IP number, name if poss) they will dump them off Dime.
Suggest you get in touch with the seller, ask a question and keep any e-mails you get from him. Act dumb and don't mention Dime to him/her
Pass any reply on to Dime mods (complete with header) plus details of the sale, and they will sort it out.

Sometimes just the threat of shopping them will get the sale stopped, but if you really want it sorted, say nothing to him, pass on details to the mods and they will ban the seller.

Not sure if it will work, but it's worth a try...

Huh? What's your point?

And what's with the ridiculously large Haile Selassie sig? Are you atari 2600 in another disguise?
