Sweet Baby James! $182?! Someone wanted this bad! :o
imho, that's a borderline unjustifiable amount. i feel ripped off when a single costs $12 and only has three tracks! But like every other collectible on ebay or elsewhere, this is worth only whatever someone will pay for it. Today it was worth $182.

15 mins before it ended, it was £25. then at the last minute there were loads of bids and it rocketed to £104! to be honest, the final price doesnt surprise me but the way it shot up does.

Yeah real sniper battle in the end.
Last few all went for 100GBP+. It is that collectable...

its a £100 record no doubt...don't foget that 'The Hump' is only avialable on this 12" and there are only 499 in existence...

and its also the only release on Underworld's Tomato label....

so £100 is a bit light...

i mean who has it and who doesn't?

No..
The person selling the one before this one got one that was broken in the mail.

Re: eBay:mother earth/the hump (ended)
 
yeah...i know someone who got two copies sent to them originally and one arrived smashed....so the 500 became 499....

For a fair price, I'm interested yes.

Haagen Darth 08-31-2005 10:22 AM

Re: eBay:mother earth/the hump (ended)
 
ok ! ok ! here for the people who think i am faking

I received this record in Dec1991 in a white sleeve (maybe Promo?)
on one side before the middle hole is an carving "dog man go woof"
the subline to over the hump is :the hump 1- wild beasts and the hump 2 - groove without a doubt - remixed by stepping razor/ emerson &smith.

If somebody needs a picture I am willing to send it in the next few days

Re: eBay:mother earth/the hump (ended)
 
i didn't think you were faking, i was just poking fun at my persistant state of financial ruin by humorlessly asking you to give me this vinyl of yours, the joke of course being that if you actually did give it to me for free, several heads in the room would EXPLODE.

edit: i would really dig a "dinosaur adventure 3d" shirt as i think it's pretty rad even if you didnt know it was an underworld song.

big screen satellite 08-31-2005 11:21 AM

Re: eBay:mother earth/the hump (ended)
 
that DA3D t-shirt - is a custom made one using 'the click n create' transfers offered a while back on the merchandising site...

and Darth, no one was complaining about you offering the Hump (or even thought that you were faking), i have it as a collector, but there are certainly many people here who will buy it from you, especially lloyd...he's yer man ;)

Haagen Darth 08-31-2005 11:41 AM

Re: eBay:mother earth/the hump (ended)
 
@big screen satellitesorry didn´t get you joke... maybe because i am no native speaker :)

anyway if you have this record too, can you tell me does yours have carvings?
on A side: doog man goo woof on B side 2001 +a+ Plum and porkey prime cut?

kind regards from Hamburg

no probs - glad to have you on board (especially if you are a star wars fan?)

Still interested in selling it Haagen Darth?

Re: eBay:mother earth/the hump (ended)
 
been scouring the web for a copy of this and the only one available is for sale on Discogs.com for $402.38 (http://www.discogs.com/Underworld-Mo...release/126592) ... it's been up there for a while. not sure anyone in their right mind would pay that much for vinyl rated VG instead of MINT.

at any rate, if anyone has a copy they'd be willing to part with for something less than excessive, let me know.

wow, talk about bringing back threads from the dead!

i know the vinyl kick can be addicting once you get it!

well, considering there were only 500 copies, ok maybe 497 (i think
i read 3 were messed up)... i know that when i tried to get one off
ebay, the seller said it was broken, but had another copy, which is
the one i ended up with..

mine is VG condition, with one minor scratch on the b-side i think.

i have no idea how much it is worth, or if/when i would sell it.
there are 37 other people that have this listed at discogs,
and if you're serious you should try contacting them.

but this is one of the hardest and rarest to find releases from them period.

i know they have a few more limited promos out there,
like the 'confusion the waitress (remix)' acetate,
but since this is one of the first for 'underworld' mk2, it has more of a historical
significance and should be more valuable.

i do agree on this - which is why i'm finally starting to hunt for it. i do kick myself now because i could have gotten a copy for about $105US about 2 years ago...

i think i just have to wait for one of the 497 individuals who have a copy to pass it on...:cool:

Dirty0900 09-09-2011 01:09 PM

Re: eBay:mother earth/the hump (ended)
 
I'm one of the 497 owners and gave Mike some money for it. Well worth it for the condition and history of the rekkid.

dubnobasswithme 09-09-2011 11:22 PM

Re: eBay:mother earth/the hump (ended)
 
One of the 497 is up on my wall. Scored it for 50 UKP from htfr.com back in 2003 if I recall correctly.

I think its still too much...
I got my copy last year for £ 84.99...
Seriously £ 150 is too much in my honest oppinion.

I totally agree. Honestly, I think the value on this should be around $150-175USD. I can't see myself paying over $200USD for it, although I really would like to get a copy.

Yeah, most copies recently have gone for about £100, so I think that's a good going rate for it.
