That's pretty steep for bootlegs man. Isn't selling bootlegs a big no-no?

That's what I was thinking. Shame on nightsky
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

The prices he has listed on some of those silver (factory, not CD-R burns) pressed bootlegs is a better deal (by more than half) what they normally sell for.
As a general rule, never play with boxes that open portals to Hell.

Wow...I didn't mean to ruffle any feathers here.  Unfortunately I do not get to post on the forums as much as I would like.  So yes...the last few posts have been me selling stuff.  However, when I have something to let go, I would prefer someone on the forums get first shot before taking it to eBay.

As for the selling of these boots, there is a fine line.  I've been collecting for a long time and don't believe I have ever crossed that line.  The prices I had listed were fair, I'm not out for a huge gain.  In fact the silvers are now gone.  I reached a deal with someone on the mp.com forum a little earlier for the entire lot of silvers for $300...a full $95 below the total of the individually listed discs...and I'm going to pay for the shipping.  She knows what is there and is appreciative of the opportunity to add them to her collection.  I could have gotten a lot more if I had taken the time to really promote them.

The only thing remaining is the large collection of traded boots.  Again, for these I am looking for a fair price to cover media, supplies and shipping.  I will not be selling these individually.  I do not sell traded boots.  If I can't come to a deal with someone, then I will work out a way to have them distributed to those who will appreciate them.
