    Default Overpriced Promos?

    Just wondering about the price? Is this normal or a ebay phenomenon?

    I belive over pricing of promos is very common since it's a quite unofficial market and many are looking for a great quick deal - before anyone else finds out. Plus, as you know, it's very hard to make decent prices. Don't think this is reserved for eBay, most sites suffer from it.
    What would Birgit Friggebo do?

    I think that I paid $10-15 for it, because I really wanted the unique edit that's on it.


    Love Morrissey, but hate most Morrissey fans? Then this is the FB group for you.

    The problem I find with cd-r's is that obviously the pre-release copies cost a fortune but then after the song is released commercially they come down in price a lot but after a few months they tend to start rising again, so it's judging when is the right time to buy?
    I usually end up paying top whack at 1st, "just in case" & then I maybe get another copy or find the different versions later.
    So in answer I don't think they are over-priced, I expect that's the sort of price you'd pay for them these days.

    love

    Actually, the LMKY "promo's" weren't that "rare". I saw a number of them @ Tower Records, and was able to score one from a hot chick that worked there.

    Believe it or not, alot of these end up at the convention from time to time, and for MUCH cheaper.

    The FOTGTD singles, are kinda rare, but not worth anything they're charging for them. Looks to me like someone's trying to jack up prices, what a surprise? I could be wrong, on Ebay too, whodathunk it?
