Firstly i'm gonna say a big HI to everyone, i've lurked here for ages, tried registering a few times (but failed) and eventually i got around to it....

Just to start my posting of to a rather crappy start i saw this on Ebay and felt that i had to say something and show it to people:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=58594&item=4016767373&rd=1

Its absolutely shocking. The guy has obvoiusly bought the CD's and just thought he would sell the downloads.......... Hmmmmmmmm


oh well.

Nice catch.

The reason you had trouble registering is that we haven’t finished tapping your phone and the bath hairdryer is electromagnecting on the same frequency as our low voltage microphones. Oh, and speak slower, it would help ever so much with the van guys.

So what? I'd much rather someone was selling downloads which, afterall they have paid for and have the right to use, than selling boots of the disclive discs themselves - which I've seen plenty of on Ebay. I've seen people selling urls to the Glastonbury ticket server, and all manner of weird and wonderful 'hacks', and if people are dumb enough to pay for them then more fool then, caveat emptor and all that...

At least the seller was up front with what he was selling and all the equipment needed for the downloads. I don't have a problem with this one.

Probably the same Lard who posts on the baileyswalk.com forum.
Here's a picture he posted in the Colectors section.
Pretty cool stuff!

I think that might be "elektra" - rubiayat - which has "born in chicago" on it

But I might be wrong

I think he's offering all four shows, a $72 dollar value for £10, seems like a good deal to me. I don't see anything wrong with this.
