I hope this is appropriate for this section.

There is a copy of My Secret Studio, Vol. 1 available on eBay (US). There was another copy that sold for 31 USD (19 GBP) just yesterday. This seems to me to be a fairly reasonable price for an out-of-print 4 CD set.

If I'm not mistaken, it's going to be re-issued sometime in the near future. I'd rather get the new set and hope that Bill will see some profit from it, instead of giving it to the ebay vultures that will pick your wallet and bones clean. They just got $100.00 for Romance of Sustain.!

Music is my therapy

I see your point...but I don't see 31 USD as picking your bones clean.

Not like the person who is selling a copy of 'Fancy Planets' on Amazon for 97 USD. No, not kidding, wish I were. I seem to recall buying that from SOS for just about 20 USD a few months ago.

That's just plain old cynical exploitation......especially considering that you can still buy the album new from Bill's official distributor Sound On Sound for a fraction of the cost :roll:

OMG! Only $200?!! I'm on it!!! Just kidding; I have regrettably sold some items on Ebay in the past to pay various bills, though.

The positive fallout from this discussion is that I've been reminded how much I like "Fancy Planets" -- I've listened to it twice this week, and it's becoming one of my favorites.
