I think TK's idea is an excellent one. However I agree with koolaid in that you
are never truly sure of its obsolescence. I think a mighty kool idea would be
to try and get licensing and make a proper release. Aside from that, the copies
will still be illegal and will probably need to be technically confined to private FTP's. (still illegal)

Well. That is perhaps the most impressive collection of CDs I've scrutinized. It looks like you have completed Symbiosis, Matsuri, TIP and others - you are also
one of the few people to have the Brainstorm CD5", Suraya Mela CD5". I can't go on...
The collection must be worth a house
nice!\\n

Seems like you have done your homework...
I agree with everything you say here.... I have been a mad man on ebay for many years myself... By the way, who are you on Discogs? This is me:http://www.discogs.com/user/PKS
Here are some of the rarest ones I have:
Juno Rector - Luciana
http://www.discogs.com/release/61352
YAP
http://www.discogs.com/release/21439
Adrenalin Drum - Xperimental Goa
http://www.discogs.com/release/238540
Eternal Basement - Vivaldis summer
http://www.discogs.com/release/229775
Saafi Brothers - Internal Code Error (CDS) (The vinyl version is more common..)
http://www.discogs.com/release/211018
Solar Systems - Remote Viewers
http://www.discogs.com/release/165707

Hi PKS! I have noticed you on Discogs
You just compiled a very nice CD IIRC. I use the same handle: 'niobium' on Discogs. Yes I have done my homework
and am learning very quickly. I'm still naive about some stuff. But in my small
corner of Discogs I am quickly learning to appraise the rarity and demand of
specific items.
Cheers man!

no no no! I don't have thee vinyl version, just the cd
i got it from masam dude on ebay awhile back along with orange and white. i noticed he had dumped another white one onto you but this time with the obistrip, wh0rd. I beat you at one guy, at least )) haha. If I find a copy through one of the thousand web sources, that I know you search and myself daily *laugh*, i'll let you know. I think we should really get together and work on some code to have a music finding bot go scour the millions of used record shop inventories available all over the net. We've been finding some rather rare shit lately niobi! The excitement builds. Actually, I've been keeping an eye out on the lunar civi...shit for you. Cause I need something to trade with you :-PAaron
I know what you mean about the BOT Aaron - it's senseless meandering around
manually. We just need a Perl script to parse entire sites for certain strings.
Same thing goes for ebay: just get a bot to scavenge it for intelligent strings.
When I found Hypnorhythm though, all I did was a search on 'Transwave' >> looked in 'Buy It Now Items In Ebay Shops' and there it was.
But typing in 'goa' didn't work since the seller didn't know what it was.
There are also programs that search for common mis-spellings; a frequent
one is: 'sphongle' - though ebay has built in filters now for certain things. One example is 'Pleidians' which it automatically corrects.
One trick I use is to search for track names in the message body. This gets around many, many possible obstacles.

HAHA, I figured you would have deduced my handle by now
Yea, if you find that CD I'll give you some cyber and 2-3 items of your choice
from my collection

Oh, I know! I found that *person* a week ago. But I did not browse their stuff carefully, I'm kicking myself now really!
I thought all of their cds would have no inserts so I ignored em, yes! :((((( stupid 5.99 trickery! SHH! We must keep our sources secret :-D Okay, well, now everyone knows. ahahha! It's fun!Aaron
hehe, yea he is now offering a better package. I scored about 10 CDs from him.
I got OOOD - A-Live for $4, Shakta - Silicon Trip for $3, Phosphorescent Comp for
$10, some unheard of jaia CD with Orphee and Brainstorm both on it for $6... heheehehe

I have Geomantik. Mu Clear...I see rennis just listed that didn't he? I'm happy with the CD :> I'm actually trading out all vinyl at the moment for CDs, don't ask. I'll keep the ones of tracks not released on CD :-/. I'm just fed up with them I guess, hehe. It's been fun though!
I think you could get the Mu Clear pretty easily?!@ Who knows. Ask Rennis,
Aaron
Aaron, I am just like you!! I first was after mainly vinyl, but now I realize it
is so much easier to collect CD's! Shipping is easier, you don't have to
flip the f*ck1ng disk every 10 minutes, etc.. Mainly the vinyls I want are the
12" with mindblowing tracks where I don't mind slapping down ther wax to
hear one particular gem.
PM me about Mu Clear vinyl if you have a second.

The vinyls I am after right now are:
1) BPC - Overbloody Flood (UFK93004)***
2) Mu Clear (Nippon Crown) - might be easy to chase down; not sure
3) Geomantik (4xLP)
and this beauty:
which is worth ALOT more than anything described here.

Hehe, I snatched up Green Nunions CD for 9.99 the other day.

Bah, those are all easy except Cryptic Crunch and Asia 2001 - Live.
Here are some tough ones:
- Crop Circles - Lunar Civilization - sometimes I doubt this even exists
- Various - Accidental Occidentalism (Symbiosis)
- Asia 2001 - Ra, Psykadelia, Live (Trans'Pact) + a few other Trans'Pact CDs.
- Hunab Ku - Magik Universe (Blue Moon ...)
- Various - A Party Is For Life Not Just For Xmas
- Bamboo Forest - Random Future (Flying Rhino)
- Transwave - Hypnorhythm (Step2House) and the Juggling Alchemists CD
- Dimension 5 - Transdimensional
not to mention various Japanese TIP compilation releases on
Nippon Crown, and Equinox/Pony Canyon such as 'Mu Clear' and Andrea
and Graham
The Trans'Pact ones come up sometimes. I've never seen AO, Crop Circles,
or Random Future on ebay or anywhere else. But this is only in 3-4 months of
looking.
And the Flying Rhino CD5" seem remarkably elusive for some reason. Especially the Space Puppy one.
Ubar Tmar - Eigou Kaiki is rare but I see it on Asian websites available.
I would venture to say that the Crop Circles CD is worth $200-$500.
Dimension 5, Hypnorhythm, Random Future, AO, Asia 2001 CD's all between
$80-$200.
Cryptic Crunch CD I saw diamonde7 sell for around 180$ while someone else
got half that or less.
The Japanese TIP CDs are worth less - maybe around $30-$70
Blue Planet Corporation CD - I found 1 copy for 20$ and another for 11 pounds.
The regular TIP Yellow, Orange, Blue CDs are worth no more than 40$ - maybe 50 for a sealed copy, with the Yellow being slightly more valuable.
The other valuable TIP CDs are the Growly Family (but more so for the vinyl)
and for some reason people seem to have a hard-on for Beyond Colour right now. Harder to find is Blizzard Of Ooze EP
and the Limited Edition vinyl Orange Compilation. There is also apparently a TIP22 (ep) - Labyrinth of Colours EP
on blue vinyl.
An interesting vinyl is Mu Clear which is pressed in Clear Green.
...enough...

I don't know what the 'price' is for that CD but that's about the most I would pay.
