chocularok Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 Has anybody won any indie's from this seller before? I won this auction a couple days ago...wondering if it's the real thing or the cheap Retrospect re-issue... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melodicrockoz Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 I have seen them sell quite a few Retrospect releases so I'm guessing it's the 2005 issue of Friction being sold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormspell Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 Better ask the seller before you pay anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocularok Posted April 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 I've emailed him 3 times with no response...but I think this answers my question... http://cgi.ebay.com/FRICTION-BABY-TALK-199...1QQcmdZViewItem He'll be getting no money from me... I'm just trying to figure out where in his item description it says 2005 Retrospect Records re-issue...can't seem to find that anywhere...

Well it does come sealed in Japanese plastic I've seen him sell a lot of fan club CDs. I've only dealt with him once, bought an Alleycat Scratch which was an original so I had good luck with him.

lrc72315BANEED!! Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 I would bet good money to say you are probably going to be getting a CDR.....I had 2 dealings with this guy and both were misrepresented and i got cdr's, which i wouldn't of bitched about had they been quality cdr's, but the sound quality was horrbile, crackling and popping all thru it.....One was a Big Bang Babies and the other was Theatre(which i was able to get an original off a few weeks later).........Since he hasn't answered your emails, i guess that gives you the answers...... Take care Lonnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocularok Posted April 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 Actually, I'm not going to be getting anything...I haven't paid for the auction & don't plan to. Well, I take that back...jerk off my give me a negative, but I can live with it. I'll blast his feedback in return if it comes to that.

PeterS Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 I'll ask the dumb question. What exactly is Japenese Plastic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delbert Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 Japanese Plastic.........a mylar sleeve that seals on on end which was made in Japan.!!!! Most normal collectors use them to preserve the finish on their jewel cases or digi pak releases..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormspell Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 I'll ask the dumb question. What exactly is Japenese Plastic? It is a very ordinary cellophane plastic bag with resealable flap. Costs about 2-3 cents per piece. you can get them on eBay, there are plenty US sellers carrying them (all made in china of course). I'm a bit puzzled, though, coz I always thought Retrospect had their duplicated CDRs factory sealed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glam_junkie Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 this person has been selling this garbage for ages. one or two times I was going to bid on some original cds they had listed at a reasonable price, but then they wanted to charge astronomical shipping prices (about $12 from memory) so I steer clear.

Jacob M. Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 poproxx has had many things I've wanted to buy. I mainly wanted stuff they listed on cassette. Not much chance you would get a bootleg on that format. I never did go ahead with it because I've never set up a Paypal account for use. Too many other sellers out there with stuff I want that accept money orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my Alleycat Scratch from him and it was an original (but that was a while back and it wasn't $23, it was more like $60). I'll definitely stay clear from now on.
