Black Sabbath - Master of Reality, ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES rare originals!!!
Uhh, have a look at the box dude, a Trident studios 1/4" copy made in 1980 ain't the ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES.

"original master" is even unchecked on the box :|

Shel Talmy put the multitrack masters of My Generation on Ebay back in 2001 in order to get the Who camp moving on a proper remix/remaster/reissue. Wonder if this is some sort of similar gambit by the producer/engineer (but yeah, obviously using nth generation tapes...)

Looking at the box it's just a 1/4 inch tape.. which means it's not multitrack masters...
From the box info it looks like a simple copy of the master tape made either for listening to, or maybe for making a re-issue pressing.
Either way, if it's on Ampex tape as the box says, then it's highly likely the tape is screwed anyway as most Ampex tape stock from that period suffers badly from sticky shed making the tape almost unplayable....

Sticky shed?

Love that "Damien Hirst inspired design" in the description. No, it's "inspired" by any regular pack of prescription tablets.

of course i hate the person who collects CD longboxes too tbh

that Spiritualized one up there is completely batshit. I remember seeing those in the Virgin Megastore sale years after the album came out
assume the PJ one is too but I can't actually visualise what a CD longbox looks like exactly so for all I know they might have made next to none of them

Longboxes weren't phased out for another couple of years, so the millions of people that bought Ten in 1991-92 in the US (because iirc, no other countries used longboxes) bought it in a longbox.
Endtimes indeed. That's the most baffling auction result I've ever seen, including, but not limited to, those auctions where people paid thousands for a potato that faintly resembled Richard Marx.

i see lots of japanese cd artwork that is longbox shape. is annoying when you have to fit it into square spaces.

Gatefold 2xLP of Pearl Jam's No Code was selling close to $300 -- down a bit these days -- i should have sold mine when it was a hotter commodity.

i made money on those. bought a couple when they were dollar bin records in the 90's and never played them. sold them later in ebay days.
― scott seward, Monday, 1 April 2013 19:44 (eleven years ago) link
yeah -- that was one of the very few albums i've ever purchased for the sole reason of resale -- never tempted to listen to it, i doubt i'd even play it with "your" turntable ;)
― suspecterrain, Monday, 1 April 2013 19:48 (eleven years ago) link
cool package though! with the weird art cards and everything.
― scott seward, Monday, 1 April 2013 19:49 (eleven years ago) link
i've noticed some of the opened ones are getting higher selling prices than sealed copies -- guessing buyers want visual proof that they'll get all that swag

no code is the best pearl jam record.

you would have to actually listen to every pearl jam album to make that determination though...

Nice find.
I don’t think it’s that optimistic. In addition to the typical trainspotters, a lot of Euro superclub DJs hype it.

The re-release can be got for £18 or so.

does seem crazy. they definitely missed a trick with not keeping the original artwork for the reissue though.

I'm still surprised at how much this one goes for:http://www.popsike.com/php/quicksearch.php?pagenum=1&searchtext=archie+whitewater&incldescr=&sortord=ddate&thumbs=&currsel=
I mean, even without the reissue a few years back, it seems like there were a lot of them out there.

I had one of those, identical in every respect (including the 'near mint' quality'), except it had the usual orange lettering on the front, instead of turquoise.
It went for £250, which was nice, but blimey, what a difference a slight colour variation makes.
