Hi Willie,
It hasn't been updated since May last year (2008).
I have not reviewed each of these sellers or looked for new ones to add.
If you (or anyone else) has additional information (name changes, additions or removals) please let me know and I'll look into it.
Many thanks for your help, Sam.

I reviewed all sellers today and all but the box sellers have no active listings.
There may be other sellers - please add a post if you find one.

Do you know anything about eBay Seller "limefaa" looking at his location it says he is in the UK but on his feedback page it says Russia. Selling Cheap and has lots of copies of each Mini he is selling.
I guess they are russian fakes.
Tony.

No Willie, they change their identities quite regularly and often list the item location as perhaps London, but then when you look at their location, it is Latvia. Recent additions seen include:
limefaa (London, but based Latvia) - DEFINITELY FAKE SELLER

alionushka77-sold me fake item on ebay 14 Years ago

alionushka77, also known as Diablo's Den. British seller just sold me a fake Russian "genesis-invisible touch", was supposed to be NEW 1st edition 1999.
Obi strip was very good except no REAR printing. Was missing Virgin's "25 years" insert. Album art slightly fuzzy. The disc itself looked home made, the number in the center of the disc was random.

About Fakes - have you noticed how the fake seller does describe the mini LP itself ? They never describe the item as being from Japan or a japanese import or JPN release. They just list the item as a mini LP - even thought they provide a picture with an OBI written in japanese and such.
That way, if the poor buyer notices that he has just bought a fake russian counterfeit copy, the seller will tell the buyer that he never said anywhere that the item was from Japan. Neither did he represented the item as being from Japan. A clever but not so subtle way to sidestep the eBay system - since they do not allow counterfeited material on their website. Anything from Latvia, Lithuania, the Russian Federation or Finland I stay away from.

Featured Releases (A selection of...)See all Featured Releases
Rush-Sector-1 : 2011-11-21 Box 1 from a 3 boxes set. Each box is numbered. These are official releases by Universal Music. Each box set has 5 cds and 1 DVD. Each cd is in a replica mini LP sleeve. The DVD is in Surround sound. Each sliding box has a picture from 1 member of the band.
On top of the boxes, you find part of the logo that is on the inside of the 2112 cd. Once you put the 3 boxes one beside another, you have the complete logo. |
EMICD-11228 : 2007-11-26 16 CD box set - being 14 studio albums including 2 doubles.
According to Pink Floyd Brain Damage site there were a few glitches with this release, the most notable being a misprinting of the inner bag for the second CD in "The Wall".
There are also cases of an album being missed out and duplicates in their places.
The later Japanese release of this box set is basically identical to this box set.
Poor quality fakes exist for this set - more details below.
The original Japanese individual releases are regarded as being of a much higher quality to either of these box sets.
You can see a YouTube video of this set on the videos page. | | |
SF-303 : 2004-12-20 Highly unusual packaging - a fake leather attache breifcase / portfolio. |
WPCR-14304 : 2011-12-21 Warner Music Japan : Cardboard sleeve (mini LP) reissue from Alice Cooper featuring the high-fidelity SHM-CD format (compatible with standard CD players) and 2011 remastering. The cardboard sleeve features double jacket with an inner bag and WB moss green label. Comes with a billion-dollar bill (reprint), a description, and lyrics. Part of a twelve-album Alice Cooper SHM-CD cardboard sleeve reissue series featuring albums "Pretties For You," "Easy Action," "Love It To Death," "Killer," "Schools's Out," "Billion Dollar Babies," "Muscle Of Love," "Welcome To My Nightmare," "Goes To Hell," "Lace And Whiskey," "The Alice Cooper Show," and "From The Inside." | | |
POCP-9194 to POCP-9208 & 9212/3 : 1999-09-29 The first edition of the first series of mini LPs for the Who (target obis) came with inserts that were pre-punched. A binder and T-Shirt accompanied the release. It is not clear how these were obtained but it seems likely that the small yellow coupon on the obi would have been snipped off and the folder at least was awarded on surrendering the full set of coupons. |
WPCR-13295 : 2009-01-14 Fifth studio album, featuring Talking Heads only US Top Ten hit, Burning Down The House (including an alternative version as a bonus, and an unfinished outtake of Two Note Swivel).
This version is a reproduction of the limited edition clear vinyl version designed by artist Robert Rauschenberg, who won a Grammy Award for his work. | | |
