I was idly watching a copy of Trees 'On The Shore'
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TREES-Shore-LP...?pt=UK_Records
......which fetched £370
So do you think the lucky(?) winner will ever play it?
Did they buy it just to own it?
If so, why?
&.......what would it fetch if it were not available on CD nowadays?
I dont understand. It was re released 180gm last year. Price , £20:mental:Quote:

I guess if you are a completist then you'd want it if you are a massive fan, and I can sort of relate to that, but I'd still play it, even if only the once...Quote:

I think this guy may have received too many Nigerian "Dear Friend" emails, by the looks of his writing style! Very thorough, if nothing else... and at the moment a bargain, but I suspect they won't stay that way for long. When I used my 8000S as my main amp I always intended to one day scrape enough together for a pair of M's, would still like some now but the piggy bank is looking a bit bleak for the price these will go for.

Blimey, some waffle there. I wonder if he works for QVC
Save your money Alex, looking at the specs the guy has published you wouldn't hear a thing through them...:lol:
I reckon with a frequency response outside the human hearing (20Mhz-20kHz ), you sure won't.Quote:

Indeed, I thought I'd buy them and then resell them to a dog! ;)Quote:
