Hello guys,

I'm forced to sell many of my CDs, including the somewhat sizable Chemical Brothers collection, to raise some money, so I thought this forum could be the best place to start. Is there anyone interested in all these nuggets? I wanted to sell it as one lot... if not, I'll list each item on eBay separately.

There are many-many rare CD-Rs, which in my opinion are always much harder to collect compared to regular promo CDs as they're mostly for internal record company use. Many of those CD-Rs contain exclusive Edits not found anywhere else (e.g. Believe [New Edit], Saturate [Edit], All Rights Reversed [Edit], etc). There are also promos of the unreleased singles, such as All Rights Reversed and Galaxy Bounce. Two promo DVD-Rs are also here, featuring videos not available in DVD format officially (e.g. Midnight Madness, The Salmon Dance).

Also included are all the Interview Discs - Interview May 1999 (Surrender interview), Come With Us, Singles 93-03, Push The Button interview discs and a highly elusive Interview-2007 (unreleased We Are The Night interview disc).

There are also many French and German samplers, US promo singles, European versions of the singles, Minidisc and cassette versions of the albums... anyway, here's the picture of everything:

In Glint #0410 is also for sale btw, I put it on eBay: http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1555.l2649
I put all the CD-Rs in plastic boxes, but I still keep the original PVC wallets, so I will repackage them afterwards.

I have no idea what a collection like that is worth, what sort of price are you asking/hoping for?

It's a sad day

Holy smokes, anType!

I'm sorry to hear you are put in a position in which you feel you must sell your amazing collection....

It is practically a museum at this point. A collection like this is truly priceless. I'm not sure what a huge lot like this is worth, especially all those rare items. If you must sell, it might be best to sell individually as you may fetch a better price. But I dunno. Best of luck to you, my friend.

Whoa. That's heavy to see a collector like you having to part with all that.

I doubt I have the funds to take the whole thing off your hands (being a teenager w/ a limited budget), but I'd love to buy just the set of interview discs and I'll do it as soon as possible. If you decide to sell individually, how much would you ask for all 5 interview discs?

I'm also interested in some of the CD-Rs and album promos too, but mainly the interview discs!

This should absolutely be a last resort brother.

Damn thats a mighty fine collection there Antype! Thats sucks that you have to give it up. I know that shit happens and that you need the cash right now, but i will take a look at your stuff!

I guess i gotta put up a fight for In glint!

I think i'll buy some stuff =)

Erm, sorry folks, this collection was SOLD before I even managed to reply here. One fine gentleman already paid for it, so it will be sent to its new home on Monday...

D:

I hope you got a lot for it. I think you were asking too little.

Is this fine gentleman on the forum? I can only imagine a die-hard fan like you to be interested in this collection. Who can we congratulate with obtaining the unofficial CB museum?

To save Antype from declining to reveal my name, twas me And I did pay more than the asking price. I kinda felt guilty that he didn't decide to auction it between us.Now I just need to work out a nice way to store/display them.

Congratulations to you, Krisper! You are the proud owner of The Forum's premier curator's very finest.

And anType can rest easy knowing this cherished collection is in caring hands! :)

Exactly what I was thinking. Congratulations, Krisper!

I hate Krisps

Praise the savior, and lots of hopes to anytype to recover soon from that crisis.
