Quoteskorpio65 Thanks wiredallnight. This is my numbered copy This one is legit original copy. Price of 150€ (S&H included) is, probably, the best you can get for this one. Actually, in my local record store a sealed copy was collecting dust on a shelve for (almost) 2 years before it was sold. It was priced at 120€. This box was initially overpriced did not sold well.

Yeah, let them use AI, remix and remaster all mono tracks to stereo! This will start another 100+ pages discussion how they failed again and missed an opportunity to do things right . Meanwhile, I shall stick to old-good London CDs with thacks in wide stereo, that allegedly originated from flat transfer of the original master tapes made by MFSL. PS.

There are a few questions about your listing. 1. What country are you from? Because, for example, a shipment from the US to EU will cost a fortune. A lot of people will skip at this point. 2. Are you planing to sell those as sets or separately disc by disc? One might be interested in a couple of discs that you listed but for sure will not start negotiations if you are selling sets. 3.

In a past few years the prices for CDs dropped significantly. So, do not expect miracles. For sure, sealed CDs and DVDs could be priced higher, but not much. Also, everything strongly depends on edition/pressing. Early editions are more collectible than other. Lets say, Still Life on WEA with target label can cost more than average, up to $100 if the first version in original smooth si

According to Japanese booklet that was included for Japanese only SHM-CDs (UICY-40031 or UICY-76017) Luxury (as well as Time Waits For No One) was trimmed and Fingerprint File was speed up to fit to LP. The initial master tape was kind of too long (49:12) to fit the LP with reasonable sound quality. Thus, original LP and old CBS CD have Luxury 4:31 and FF 6:37 Virgin CD - Luxury 5:01 and FF 6
