just ripped the kid a new asshole in a email , told him how hes a failure as a bootlegger and he should throw in the towel before he sells a bootleg to wrong people who will find him and beat his ass lol

my first email to the guy

Dear malcolm983,

as a hardcore collector and a big prodigy fan i must say this was an intriguing find , however , after seeing the pictures of the cassette i have a reason to believe that this is not a genuine item but a very good looking fake , no offense against you as im not sure who bootlegged this tape but given the fact that i am well skilled in the art of bootlegging myself there are just too many red flags and inconsistencies going off after i analyzed the pictures . on those basis i would not be able to make you any sort of offer but good luck with the sale.

Dear desebticon,

Really!? I bought it like this and thought that it was original tape. Could you help me to figure out that this is a bootleg please?

My response

Dear malcolm983,

first mistake , you didn't wait long enough after you bought the 37 blank tapes that still remains visible in your feedback , 2nd i am friends with one of the biggest collectors of prodigy material in the world , he sent me pictures of the original cassette and inlay , its completely different ... its a damn shame that's all i can say man , shame on you for trying to profit on one of the greatest bands in the world , you had a great story that goes along with it by the way , had me going for a minute , i knew something was up when you said you bought 5 of these tapes in the same place though , and Russia to top it all of ? Russia is the #1 place that produces bootlegs man . with that said i can offer you $0.50 for this cassette if you throw in free shipping , by the way those "wear marks" on the cassette from "putting it in and out of the tape deck" are completely wrong as well . you got to step your bootlegging game up or get out of the business before you sell to the wrong people man .

Dear desebticon,

What the hell are you talking about? And why are you changing the accounts in Ebay? Don't gelous, it is not my problem that you don't have money to buy it. Even if it is a bootleg, it could be sold as many bootlegs on Discogs.com. I didn't say that it is Original, I'm selling it like this Used. And by the way, prove me that the original tape is different show me your pictures.

Dear malcolm983,

Dude I'm not changing accounts in eBay you were exposed on the prodigy forums as a fraud and you're never going to sell your bootleg tapes for $500 not on eBay not on discogs , and why the he'll would I send you pictures of the original cassette ? So you can make better looking bootlegs ? Hell No keep dreaming , check prodigy forums and see for yourself how much of a joke your bootlegging skills are man , and if you got a problem I can meet half way between NYC and CT and talk this over like gentelmen instead of huffing and puffing online , everyone can be a hard ass behind their agronomic keyboard. We are many , we are the ant army , invaders must die !

nicely done!

Nice job De5EBticon!

I wonder if we should make a topic about uncovering people selling fakes on eBay etc

Do it i say

Thank you guys there was more correspondence after that post i just havent had a chance to post it up yet , i told the dude its easy to be a hardass behind his argonomic keyboard and then i told him if he wants to see a real prodigy collection or if he has a problem and wants to bang it out he can come find me and gave him my address lol , this is a damn shame that such a great find ended up being a fake , i really was interested in adding this tape to my collection.

***for US only

Still interesting, but where is the orange ssticker ? No picture of the CD itself ....

went for 124,53 US Dollars [86eur] ... not a good price imo if I think last weeks promo went for 94 euro ....

congrats to the winner [if this item is real ]

i have the cd (Spitfire), still sealed, but don't have the orange sticker. on Girls and Hotride (still sealed both), have the stickers

Mine has that sticker

New price for the "Minefields" tape



Love to see that nobody's gonna buy that tape
