IcecreamJapan69 Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 I thought I would post this Ebay auction here....it was mentioned in the "BUY SELL TRADE" section. http://cgi.ebay.com/WHITE-EAGLE-Bustin-Ass...1QQcmdZViewItem I thought this should be listed here as well. This is more than likely a boot, which Tim2 and Studboy had said. With the "Asian release" label, and then on the back of the cd it state "Made in USA". Dan , you said you was an ebay junkie...can you make heads or tails of this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcecreamJapan69 Posted December 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 If you are lucky it may be even silverpressed <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah. Your're right Its kinda wierd that the highest bidder says "ID KEPT PRIVATE". My ebay id always appears on everything I bid on. Another suspicion. Hell, it might not have cd in it at all..........silver pressed or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormspell Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Up to $102 with 5 bids since it very obvious is a bootleg, beats me up how naive some people could be to bid on this phony cd, exsiting or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retrospect Records Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Hmmm , I guess you guys don't get it. Pretty much the only people who care about boots are the handful or so who post at this forum. "The Ebay Police". Everybody else wants the music.

stormspell Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Yep, and here steps the helpful and caring criminal who kindly provides the music to them for the mere $102 But you are right, its up to the masses to realize and stop buying. As far as there are people wliling to buy such subpar products at such ridiculous prices, there always will be greedy people bootlegging it. It's how the world goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studboy Posted December 6, 2005 Report Share Posted December 6, 2005 Yes, if you look at what this seller sells its all high dollar CDs (not hard rock though). I've seen him use several different ebay ids but the auctions themselves look identical, check it out, different sellers but same exact auction page: Selling now: http://cgi.ebay.com/WHITE-EAGLE-Bustin-Ass...1QQcmdZViewItem Sold a while ago: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1 I know stormspell you say this guy is a ripoff but get that vibe anyway even if I didn't know for sure.

stormspell Posted December 6, 2005 Report Share Posted December 6, 2005 Ya, I really dont know why someone would state "Asian Release" and then will put backtray picture which has this big bold legit sign "MADE IN USA". If you want to swindle someone, at least learn how to use photoshop Or maybe in this case he is Asian, and U.S.A. simply means "Utterly Self Assmebled" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anamal Posted December 6, 2005 Report Share Posted December 6, 2005 he is asian..he lists item from america but ships from asia..and yes he does use multiple ids...if ya want a cdr of the white eagle ..i can do you 1 for free...with artwork ..

Pretty much the only people who care about boots are the handful or so who post at this forum. "The Ebay Police".Everybody else wants the music. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well I sure as hell care about boots. If I'm gonna pay 100 bucks for a CD I want it to be genuine. If innocent buyers can be protected from paying this sort of money for something that someone else on the site could make for them for a few dollars, then we have every right to post it here. And if it's being sold as if it's an original release (which means the 'first release on that format') then that person is committing FRAUD & we have every right to protect others on this forum. If you don't like it then go play somewhere else.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone wants anything give me a shout and you can gladly have it for free rather than paying out stupid money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brocken Spectre Posted December 6, 2005 Report Share Posted December 6, 2005 Is the album really that good to demand a $100+ price tag?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studboy Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Is the album really that good to demand a $100+ price tag?! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If this was an original copy it would demand much more than $100, it would probably demand in the $250-500 range, however I would not pay that much for this CD but I would pay $100 for it. It is a great CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The Ebay Police".Everybody else wants the music. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And once again I say,bootlegs are fine if you know what you are getting. Selling a bootleg as an original is fraud! If its clearly marked as a bootleg & you buy it,then all is fine. Would you be as happy buying a Ferrari for Ferrari prices only to find out its a converted Ford?

stormspell Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Is it legal to sell bootlegs in the US??? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Of course not, but some people make living on it nevertheless. It is the same plague all over the world, not only in USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
