yes, it's the same. This time he asks almost 2000 USD less

[rudiger]

I don't want to sound persecutory, but how can you sell 2 times the same object? Unless there are many copies numbered 007/100 
Seriously, I guess that he has opened two auctions for the same item (which says a lot about the reliability of the seller)

ebay scolds for cases less serious... Anyway, doesn't worth it going down that road. Even if I had the money and it was 100% genuine, it would be the last thing to buy.  But the statue is a thing of beauty, unfortunately with the asking money I pay a year of rent for my house ...

I just came across this: http://www.marktplaats.nl/a/cd-s-en-dvd-s/vinyl-singles/m793445279-dire-straits-mark-knopfler-money-for-nothing.html?c=8c285449651fa109c354bbabe740c1b&previousPage=lr

Relatively easy to find, one of my first steps of collecting DS on vinyl!
One of the two picture discs in the DS catalog, I guess the easier of the two.   
It used to go for 1/3 of the price 10-15 years ago. I don't know if it has become so scarce or the inflation has grown so big.

Stand corrected! Thanks rudiger! Have all three, but forgotten about the round one! Maybe because I got it last, when some of my enthusiasm has evaporated.    And there are also a couple of interview discs from baktabak (or something like that) that are picture discs as well, but not official.

[vgonis]

Some of them can be found even now, but the prices are out of here...

Did you know about these playing cards?

[rudiger]

yes. when shangri-la was released they appeared quite often on ebay.

[vgonis]

They went under my radar. I guess 2004 was one of these years!

There's one of these things up for sale and it looks quite interesting, especially if the indicated track lengths are correct.  Does anyone know anything about this e.g. are they the same versions but not faded out (this can't apply to WII which is longer but not faded out on the album anyway and is even longer than the Mexican promo)?  Or are they alternate versions?  Or, most likely of all, are the indicated track lengths incorrect?

Actually I can't trust to CD with
