Did anyone let Olivier know about this for his website?

Olivier has it listed at http://olivier.landemaine.free.fr/vu/di ... es.html#fr

What I find most amazing is that it's the only French 45, and they managed to mess it up. It's definitely a nice single to have up on your wall, but you can buy a lot of great music for $200.

You guys need to start posting the PICTURES here. The links are going to go dead.

That bid's gotta be a hoax/joke. How on earth could a cassette of 1993 be anywhere near the value of a VU-1 or 'Music Factory', even if (hypothetically speaking) it was a one off with audio from a different concert all together?

I took the link and put it in between the img brackets that you used; I hope it works.

The unpeeled banana is going to sell for more than an original mono LP? That's pretty nuts!

And the French pic sleeve single - I don't remember when I got it (I guess about 10 yrs ago), but I'm sure my one was only about ?15-20 then....
