Yeh its the Vinyl, I bought two copies of the game and got two vinyls, kept one for myself and put the other on ebay a couple of weeks later, it sold for £150 which paid for the whole lot with a bit of profit, ive only seen one available since though, so I suspect they will over time become very sought after

I actually found a better price anyway. There are a bunch of them on Amazon for really cheap. Purchased one for under $6. There are still plenty more available and a lot of them have international shipping.

I'll probably always regret that decision not to buy it when I had the chance I'm sure you're right, they are very sought after now.

Then I think I'll take a chance on it afterall. It's quite a strange cd in that it bears no relation to the in-game music. It's just some random tracks gathered together to promote the game but, by all accounts it's meant to be pretty good.

I still want the official SC5 soundtrack cd though, I'm a massive fan of both games and I'd love to have that.

I just found this interesting item on eBay. It's a binder for the E3 2000 Dreamcast press kit. It looks a bit scratched up on one side but I've never seen one of these before.

Why is it that some sellers on Ebay don't post overseas ? In this day and age it really shouldn't make any difference whether you're posting to Louisiana,London or Lisbon

Woops, sorry about that. I keep forgetting to check whether they ship international. I just thought it was interesting since I've never seen one before.

Well, yeah it is an interesting find - I've never seen it before either and I'm really glad you posted it, but I still needed to rant about the lack of international shipping

Blame Pay Pal, they really discourage international transactions with their "Buyer Protection" crap. Makes it where a seller absolutely must pay for a tracking number or else the buyer can simply file a claim with Pay Pal that they never received the item and Pay Pal will force issue a full refund to them, unless you can provide a valid tracking number. Adding a tracking number to an international shipment means sending by UPS or FedEx only as USPS International tracking numbers can only be used to verify when the package left USPS custody.

It can be sort of daunting if you've never shipped anything out of the country either. It's not complicated, but I used to worry about doing it before I had an international buyer.

I never realised that ! That's just asking for people to abuse their priviliges..........I sometimes wonder if there isn't a better way to buy and sell than through Ebay.
