I would love to get hold of one being down here in Oz now trying to catch the info either here or on ebay is bloody awkward with the time difference.

I will gladly give out my mobile number if someone could text me? PLEASE?

I'm in Oz and check fairly regularly. Feel free to private-msg me your mobile # and if I see them up I'll send an sms. :)

Looks like this m-2 guy has another one up for bid on ebay...How did he get so many?

I wonder if this may be the inherent problem trying to sell them to dirts on ebay...others may be snatching them up and exploiting us for price...not sure who can afford the price these end up going for though...the pool has got to be getting thinner.

If there is someone who is willing to contact me if these go onsale, I would in turn be willing to contact another person. Perhaps we can come up with some sort of "tree" to contact people. I live in the Southeastern US for what its worth.

yup. i know that yan is trying to warn us so that we are the ones that get em, but it seems like a losing battle to me. for each bunch that gets put up on ebay, a certain percentage are gonna go to profiteers. i dont think im gonna play the reload ebay game. if they go for sale on here or paypal, ill be all over them; i really do wanna pay for them being that i listen to the mp3s 5 times a week :P

Argh! Any chance of these going on sale soon? I feel the "ebay reload" battle is the only way I will be able to "stumble" into this set. Been refreshing ebay all day the past 2 days while at work. My luck I'll miss out when I'm away from the computer. I don't see how the requsted # of interested Dirts will all come out with a CD if profiteers will just gobble them up the instant they are made available. Can't there be some special code other than "Underworld live Tokyo" to keep the items "hidden" on eBay so that the Dirts who want them get a fair chance to purchase? <frustrated UW fanatic in the SE US of A> :confused:

well the special code isnt the purpose of using ebay. the purpose of using ebay is to make the cds public at their locked in price. so if yer gonna hide em, you might as well just paypal directly to yannick. :) -- which is how i would prefer to do it.

What if they are sold on ebay but use a random series of letter as the item. For example, use "ANDIDBHSY" as the name. Then let us know to search ebay for "ANDIDBHSY" That way no one except some one who reads the boards will know what to look for and dirty.org can still use the services of ebay.

Or even if you want to get real specific, list them each under a seperate random name then PM each person the "code" i.e. random name to buy it. This would be a little more work though.

Either way this would allow for dirty.org readers only as well as inventory control.

Just a thought.

again, the point isnt to hide them on ebay. the point is to make a declaration to would-be resellers that dirty is gonna list these constantly at 15$ a disc fixed rate. so its worthless to buy them up and resell them at 100$ a disc. problem is that, anyone willing to buy them up for resale already knows that its still worth it to buy 5 copies and sell them at a later date. like ive said before, if you want dirts to get them, then sell them directly to dirts. if you wanna stop resellers, then power to ya, but i dont really want to jump through hoops because of them.

I was assuming the issue was to find a way to sell the discs to dirty.org readers while using ebay to do so since it has to be the easiest way not only but send payment but also have a set number of discs for sale and being able to have inventory control. I stand corrected.
