Getting the Buckingham Nicks LP!

[77Rumours77]

I have been trying to get this off ebay for almost 3 years. It never fails I always get outbid! I always put a max bid and always get outbid by .25 cents. I think I am gonna give up :distress:
Did anyone else this much trouble trying to get it?

Did anyone else this much trouble trying to get it?Sorry to hear you're having such a difficult time getting a copy, Jacob.
I totally lucked out in regards to my copy... when I started getting into Stevie & Fleetwood Mac in a big way, my mother's boss told me, "I have an album Stevie and Lindsey Buckingham did before they ever even joined Fleetwood Mac."
The fact that they had recorded an album before they were in FM was news to me, so I asked if I could borrow it. She told me, "Actually, if you make me a cassette copy of it, I'll let you keep the album"

She no longer had a turntable and said that the record was useless to her without one... so I lucked out big time!

I know it's discouraging when you try repeatedly to win something on eBay, and always end up losing out... but keep trying for it. I'm sure you'll win it yet. :nod:

Yeah, I saw one in a record store, but someone had colored in Stevie's lips and eyes with blue ballpoint pen. :( It was 12 dollars.

[estranged4life]

Try finding the audio cassette of Buckingham/Nicks instead...Hard as hell to find nowadays.

[Bumperke]

I remastered it to cd.
So, i got mp3 (192Kbps) aswell, pm me if you want it.
Quality is good,

Never put in a high bid on ebay. You should snipe it right at the end. I se hammertap. You put in your max bid on there and it will bid in the last 10 seconds or so..

I agree, that _usually_ works for me .... [Damn guy who got that Shangri-La poster with 4 seconds to go....! :laugh: ]

What's the hammertap thing about, by the way?

Can I ask what the average selling price is?

Sorry you're having so much trouble. Don't give up, though!!

You just put in your max bid.. much like you do on ebay except it doesn't bid until the end of the auction so hopefully if your bid is high enough you'r more likely to win. Also handy if you're not there when the auction ends

[gldstwmn]

I bought my copy at a record store some 20 odd years ago. :o
Pip is right though. I've lost very few auctions with hammersnipe.

I knew that service was available but I didn't know where ... thanks for the tip-off. :cool:

[Johnny Stew]

Never put in a high bid on ebay. You should snipe it right at the end.I used to feel awful about sniping people, and I still do... to a point... but I'll snipe now if it's something I really want.
"When I want something, I get it." ;)

Usually though I don't want to be bothered, so whenever possible, I go for the "Buy It Now" items.
Hammersnipe sounds like a cool service though... I'll have to look into it.

[77Rumours77]

Thanks for all the support and info...The hammersnipe looks very interesting! I might give that one a go. And I don't know what it is.. I have never had this much problem getting an album off ebay, and I have gotten some rare stuff!

P.S. Tommer, thanks for that website. I will deffinelty use it!:nod:

[Sahara]

I used to feel awful about sniping people

Yeah, me too. But bearing in mind that everyone does it ... and it's probably been done to you! *suspicious glance at everyone!*
It's available there, to everyone, so there's nothing wrong in taking advantage of it.

It's available there, to everyone, so there's nothing wrong in taking advantage of it.That's pretty much the thing... because it sucks when people do it to me, I hate to do it to others. But, realizing that pretty much everyone does it now, I know you have to "play the game" if you really want to win an item. I still don't do it everytime though.

Funny anecdote... I had been trying to get the "Reconsider Me" promo CD for a few years now, and would always lose out because I'd get sniped or the bidding would go too high. So this summer I finally decided that I was going to get that CD come hell or high water, and placed a high bid WAY higher than I should have. Immediately feeling guilty for bidding so much.

With about an hour left to the auction, someone outbid me, and I decided I should just let the guy have it... couldn't justify spending all that money on a 1-track CD single.
At the very last minute, someone sniped him.

Come September, I'm unwrapping a birthday gift from my boyfriend... and it was "Reconsider Me"!
He knew how much I had been wanting it, and HE was the guy who won the auction I had bid on. :laugh:

I do feel guilty alright ... I don't do it unless I have to either.

Interesting anecdote by the way. That'll warm my heart next time I'm sniped -- It's OK! Someone got it for me! That's what happened! It'll be OK! :o

I found a BN CD out of OZ on ebay by Anthem Records (used to partner with Polydor apparently?) and I thot it wasnt available in CD? But I compared my CD to my albums and its exactly the same... great quality too, so Im happy...:thumbsup:

The album hasn't been officially released on CD anywhere in the world.

A friend of mine recently sent a copy of that "release" to me though, and the sound is terrific. I'm thinking whoever put this together, must've used a cassette copy for their source.

[irishgrl]

the info I got when I bought it was that Anthem split from Polydor and an old master reel was used? I get that it hasnt been "officially" released anywhere, but the idea that two record companies parted ways and one had this property that it decided to develop made sense to me...

I dont know much about bootlegs, but the copy I got sounds pristine. I could very easily believe it was made from a master reel.........at any rate, since I dont have a turntable and I dont have the time to wade thru all the downloads, Im very happy to have what I've got, bootleg or no....

Yay! Finally! :blob1:

[ReFleetwoodMac]

Do you people love the album so much because it reminds you a of happier time, when the two lovebirds were living out their destiny by being together? Or do you actually love the music so much that it warrants sitting and staring at it for extended periods of time? Because I have never found the music particularly stare-worthy.

[skcin]

It's just that Lindsey looks so f*cking hot. THAT'S WHY! I actually don't like any of the songs, they suck, I just like to stare at hot Lindsey & drool over his hot sexy bare chest. What instrument does he play again? :shrug: Who cares, he's soooo sexy. Sometimes I lick the album cover.





















Christ, Bobo, nobody can make a simple comment without your smug comments inferring that they are idiots. You've NEVER perused an album cover while listening to the album itself? Never? No? OK fine. Good day.

[ReFleetwoodMac]

Considering the album we're talking about, it's wouldn't be too hard to believe that people want it more for its rarity and its general mystique than its musical content. Does everyone around here wants one just because it is such a musical masterpiece? I suppose I already am pretty sure of myself that this is not completely the case, so you would merely be reaffirming my belief. But if it is actually a masterpiece, I might consider giving it another shot.

ditto.

I, myself, find the album to be very good. A masterpiece? Not so much, but an awesome record.

[DavidMn]

I got a bootleg (OF COURSE) copy on cd when I lucked out and happened to be in this little record shop in Des Moines. It was very good quality too. Almost no record scratches.:nod:

I would want it cause it's rare, but I also think it's very good/masterpiecish. But I have the CD, I only want the album cause it's rare.

[shackin'up]

well, think what you want. I consider it a masterpiece. and a big one too.
