Damn, that is impressive.  And there's a bid of over a half million space bucks already.  I'd hope anyone paying that much has a deal to inspect the collection prior to payment.  Wow.

suspect that's a shill or reserve rather than an actual bid.

After the $550,000 purchase Paypal will gladly be taking $15,950.30 leaving the seller with $534,049.70.  Doesn't count the listing and seller fees for eBay either!  :lol

That's it!  Good job.  Most people don't pick up on that.

Their best album in my opinion.  Have seen them at least 10 times and they are a great live band as well if you ever get a chance to catch them.  Sorry to get off-topic!

Music is always great topic.... My brother had the chance to see them and they were awesome... If I recall STP core was actually the first cd I bought back in 1992. I still have that disc in my possession  :afro:

May've heard you. Been re-listed at 575k.  I'm suspicious - the lack of proper english in the description gives a scent of asian.
