    Actually, $47 more...

    You're right... I'm out of line. Good luck with your sale.

    Yep. I've heard a few stories of people buying a White BS on ebay only for it to be the black vinyl.
    Some people think this is acceptable (me being one).

    Interesting...

    Two different scenarios. Matt's tried to trade his white Backspacer on here for weeks but with no luck. That other thread, the guy bought that poster and put it up for trade on here straight away. Anyway lets not go there cos it's not helping Matt get his Binaural

    Timmy (Released1980) sent me a pm not too long ago with a really cool idea. After the backlash that I've received today, it has helped to remind me that there really are some amazing people here. So, the White Backspacer is no longer for sale....but rather, you have the chance to win it. More info can be found here:

    Thanks again, Timmy.

    Cheers,
    Matt

    I'd also like to thank those that have bumped my trade/sale/ISO threads over the last couple of months. It really means a lot! Special thanks to Robley (White Discusssion).

    It is great threads like this one, that make me very hesitant to post my stuff for sale and just go straight to ebay. I have something that I know there are a few people here would want, but I'm not really ready to get torched just yet.

    Good luck to OP on getting Binaural.
  • I find this all very confusing. Matt, we have talked in the past and I think we have a goot raport, but unfortunately, I'm alarmed by this thread.

    There are many people who have posted on this thread in support of Matt trying to sell his White Backspacer for way above market value. Fine. Post whatever price you wish for. I have stated that in the past and I stand by that today. However, what I find most alarming is the fact that people informing other members on this thread of the price being too high being told to move on and leave it alone. Matt, I KNOW you have done this several times in the past yourself, in service to other members. I don't see anything wrong with that. I've done it myself. Many people post prices that are too high in error, some post to gouge, either way, a good community looks out for its members. You have never shyed away from telling someone that their price is too high. Or, at the very least, posting a :? .

    But now you are telling people to mind their own business on your sale? Not only that, but using the fact that you have contributed to holy grails and given stuff away (something MANY of us here do on a regular basis) as an excuse to be allowed to do this? Something just doesn't sit right with that.

    Matt, I really hope you get your Binaural. And I think Released1980 came up with a really good idea to turn this around. I just think we all need to be mindful that the rules apply to us all here.

  • It would be kinda ironic if you sell(raffle) the white Backspacer on here for more, then buy Binaural on ebay...
    Hope I'm incorrect and just jumping to conclusions.

    You're missing the point completely.

    I'll offer my opened Binaural for sale for $250, that's only about $50 over ebay prices...
    Same deal, right? What works one way should work the other?

    You don't see the irony?

    i see that i don't need to answer to you. this raffle was an idea that Timmy had & considering the crap that went on in my for sale thread (you remember that one...don't you?), i thought it was a great idea. i also will be offering up 2nd & 3rd place prizes for the raffle. other people have done raffles here before (there was one for Benny not too long ago). if you want to sell your Binaural, go ahead & sell it. and you know what? YOU will get to set the price. YOU will do the research.

    What's even more ironic is that somebody is gonna score a White Backspacer for $10... :D:D

    That's not irony, That's usually how raffles work...
