Known bootlegs and Ebay advice.

Had to share this as it's so laughable. Looks like they've taken a pic of the boys on a wooden table then photo-shopped it onto a clear disc. Apparently this is 'very hard to find', maybe as it's a blatant fake.

Click on any of the records also listed by that seller, the record picture changes, but the background doesn't.

The George Michael one is hilarious!

That is brilliant. Looks like someone has sneezed an image of GM onto that. There's another PSB one for Suburbia which uses an image from the Being Boring era?!? Looks totally legit of course (like all the other items for sale).
I mean I know there's other sellers doing the same thing but it's damn low trying to con people out of hundreds of pounds for photo-shopped fakery.

Looks like this guy had 85 (!) Axis promo CDs for sale:

How can it be possible? Got his hands on a stash of undistributed ones?

Nah, it's probably fake, yet I purchased one anyway back in the day. It was lossless, and the artwork was well reproduced, so in essence, it's the same as any other copy? Good enough. I'm grateful that I was able not to overpay a cheap disc for a single exclusive track.
