I know yesterday (13th March) was the first time a new PSB track had been played in ages, but (as per the long standing forum rules) in future all public requests for copies of any new track, PSB or otherwise, will be deleted and/or threads containing requests closed. We will officially...
Did anyone else on here order the limited signed print for the RAH show by Pete McKee? Had an email today to say it'll ship before the end of April. I'm hoping it is numbered too. 50 made.
Hi all, completely new to collecting. My dad had the above in pristine condition (passed to me). Just wondering if something like that is a collectible/worth something/will be worth something?
Many thanks...

i'd also reccomend popsike.com because there you'll see *how much peope actually got* when they sold the item on ebay unlike in discogs where you'll just see what some people *would like to get* (discogs has a sales history too but it's a bit hidden)
I guess this would be a good title for a thread on how file-sharing is destroying the old business of being a collector... but actually, it's not about that. I have a tricky question for all the PSB collecting experts out there: namely, how can you obtain the B-side track 'We're All Criminals Now'...

My favorite online stores for buying lossless music are:
Hi.
I have this cassette with PSB.
I was wondering if it was something for collectors and what it might be worth.
I've got a highend Denon cassette player, only played the tape once and the tape is in very good condition.
Can someone help me please

Please listen to it, if there´s any hearable difference or different tracklength.

So, there must be something pretty special about these records for the prices they fetched. Can anyone shed light on these as to why the commanded the prices they did?

The matrix mix is also on a commercial UK 7 -

See my original response, I already said it :wink:
I think they remain in the unreleased category until today...
Yup, they were only available on the PSB official site for a short time when it was possible to download the stream only material. I think everything was deleted or the site structure was changed when management found out. :wink:...
I watched this auction and nearly put in a last second bid before coming to my senses. Half of me thinks I've been sensible and the other half thinks, Heck you only live once and it got away..

Madness or determined collector..? :?

Hello fellow Pet Heads, I'm working on an article for Classic Pop magazine's regular 'Pop Art' regular feature. In the next issue I'll be profiling Scott King's design work for PSB (and others). Does anyone happen to have any decent pictures of the shirts he designed for the Release tour? They...
Hi,
Would you consider yourself a hoarder or just a very serious collector?!...do you collect anything and everything regarding PSB?,ie paper cuttings,magazines ads infact absolutely anything regarding PSB?...if so is your collection so big that you simply dont have the space to store it at home...

I recently docummented my whole collection in a photo album, in case anybody's curious:
I try to collect as much as I can without paying more than the price for a regular record, so real collector items are out of the question for me. Also, I only go for variant editions of about the same thing...
Anyone know anything about this? I assume it's a bootleg:

My big question here is if the demos there are sourced from original lossless files, not mp3. If they're lossless, it´s a very good item for any collection!!
Does anyone have pictures and list of all the longboxes released both cassette singles and cd?
I am interested to know if there is more than one actually longbox with/without the double pack.

I just put my hands on a very nice condition copy of the Brazil 12 release of Disco 2 . I never had any other copy on 12 of this album. Looking at the three vinyl releases (UK, US and Brazil) listed on Discogs, I see that this is the only one commented as having a gatefold sleeve..is that true??...

The UK vinyl is the same - the credits and the blank TV screen design are printed on the reverse of the card so you have to peer inside the cover to read all the details. They've got a history of printing on the inside of record covers - Bilingual has yellow squares inside, Behaviour has bright red...
This cassette had:
Heart (Disco Mix)
Heart (Dance Mix)
Always On My Mind (Extended Dance Mix)
on both sides. I picked it up at a flea market in Cape Town, but sold it a few years later. Does anybody know which country released it?

What is your most precious Pet Shop Boys item personally signed in front of you by Neil & Chris?
Mine has to be my edition of Catalogue when Neil & Chris signed the page with Always on my mind 12 inch cover on. Chris wrote my name followed by his signature then Neil signed the bottom!

I have many, but I think this is my favourite...because it´s their first ever Argentinean release (from where I am); I believe this is maybe the only signed copy of this release in existence, plus it´s in mint condition...also something very very rare on this days! :)
I managed to buy this Japanese velvet boxset this week for under 20 quid, and when it arrived, to my delight, it was still sealed! I am so tempted to open it, and undo the shrink wrapping... What do you reckon?

I just ripped my 3 the other day using an external cd drive. They're very cheap and handy!
I have the West End girls 10 in near mint condition, but without any trace of the front sticker.
So...can anybody please provide a hi quality scan of the original yellow round sticker, so I can print it and keep it with the 10 ? Even if it´s cut in the middle it will be fine...
Thanks in advance for any help...

Finally done!! :D Four different versions with a slightly different yellow to choose the better after printing! ;)

We can be lucky for those releases, better then nothing. TMIT is still most fragile release at all.

Just gave it a listen, very pleasant in October.

I have a Holland CD pressing of Discography that plays a McAuley Schenker Group 5 track ep entitled 'Nightmare' which came out in 1991 the same year as Discography. Obviously there was a mix-up at the factory! I've no idea of it's value but it is a nice talking point nonetheless. I also have a UK...

I'd love to have Alternative on LP!!
Would be a good product to re-release on the next Record Store Day... :)
At £49.99 in the stores, and £299.99 on ebay an hour later no doubt!
Hi, everybody.
I've found in my collection this CD with correct tracklist. Obvoiusly it is 2nd release with fixed errors which was caused by EMI.
Please check your copies. I've bought my copy from Brazil seller last year.

It sounds much better in terms of remastering. Story was just a fast compiled Album without any real mastering. The 10 mix and the other tracks are just fade-Outs, unfortunately.
On the 7 :
R-6097 A-1- etc.. is the standard 3:45 mix
R-6097 A-3- etc is the edited dance mix with backwards ending (as found on NOW!, Spools' Paradise, etc), right?
has anybody come across A-2 ??? presumably there would be a test pressing somewhere of a cut that was subsequently scrapped?
Missed out on getting the fluorescent RSD 12 as my local shop only carried one copy. Cue weeks of looking on eBay at ridiculously inflated prices.
Until just now.... Won for £16.01 !!!
Top tip:- people spell fluorescent wrong sometimes ;-)

A record purchase can pinpoint a place in time, even more so when you feel you have got a great deal in this day and age. A local Recordstore to me (which sadly doesn't exist anymore) had a few PSBs 12 s in new condition. The owner brought out to me some unplayed new 12 s that he got in from...

We've spoken to someone very high up at EMI who worked with the PSB at the time who tell us it is NOT official. It may be pressed at EMI but it was never officially ordered/made by them. It was never for the directors or anyone else at EMI.
Yes that's true rorie,it makes you wonder why though...
