Re: Re: [KLF] KLF bargain of the month?

      That's quite a haul ... ! I recall once being in a second-hand shop in Dundee just after a KLF kompletist had been in and sold his collection ... I cherry-picked some of the stuff, but being a humble student some items were just too expensive for me.  But I still remember the giddying sight of "Pure Trance" sleeves and labels, JAMSCD4s, pink label "Space" promos, the "White Room Demos" bootleg cassette and Pete Robinson's book all lying in a plastic bag ...!

Now ... talking of rarities (as we have been for a while) what about turning things on their head?  What is the *LEAST* rare KLF rarity; the thing people stick on ebay thinking they'll make a fortune, and they don't ...  I'm sure we've all seen bog-standard "3 AM Eternal at the SSL" 12-inches on ebay for £15 or upwards, and not getting any bids.  But my vote for a non-rare KLF rarity has got to be KLF PUB1, the "jukebox" promo of WTIL/J&A.  No one ever seems to want to buy either on ebay, even for 99p!
