A limited signed collection of screen captions from the auction listing at various intervals commemorating the post-$100,000 mark. Including a list of bidders and their respective bids. All printed on a high-end glossy paper stock of the finest lasting quality. Stamped, signed and certified by myself.
$10 for this? This is just beyond belief or a very naff joke.

After due consideration I have decided not to bid.
However, I am still looking for a re-offering of the Matrix Sampler's 'Some Kinda Love' in flac (non-lossy) format from this very site...

Anybody who buys this, by the way, should get themself a laser turntable so they can play it as much as they want without damaging it.

As an aside, wasn't Norman Dolph recently quoted as saying he'd done some digging and it looked possible that the original master tape, from which this acetate was cut, was still in the Columbia vault?

Funny thing that the owner of the acetate is called Warren Hill. I assume that you (wornhill) are the lucky one?
What are your feelings now? While becoming rich?
I keep my fingers crossed that you really get the money. And that we get a copy
