Two 12" this month. Now that's a record. Or was he the man pressing records after hours at adrenalin/damont? Maybe the first record wasn't sold after all, and the high bidder was a close friend who should prevent the first copy to get sold at a price too low....?
in the description for the item, he's got:
This item is up for auction again; on inspection the original buyer believed it to be a counterfeit. Although he did supply me with the following information: The small "na" in the run out groove, confirms that this is one of those pressings (i.e. a counterfeit / bootleg). The original pressing had "DAMONT" in the run out. He went on to suggest that only 10 copies of the counterfeit /bootleg were produced and date from around 2003".
To supplement this information I contacted another KLF collector who kindly supplied me with this information, which relates to the standard ultra rare stock copy (of which there are between 3 20 copies in existence). Although yours is a white label and my copy depict a 'labelled-up' copy, the pressing should be exactly the same, but the catalogue numbers appear to have different handwriting, and on your copy quotes 'KLF006T-A-' instead of 'KLF-006-T-A1'. The B side on the original quotes 'KLF-006-T-B1'. While yours say 'KLF006T- B-' instead . On my stock copy, a scratched out 'ADRENALIN' can be seen (the name of the KLF pressing plant) to the left of the 'KLF' etching. There are also some scratched out initals to the right of the 'A1' and 'B1'. The catalogue number is also closer to the centre of the record than in your two photos. You got a good price for your copy and I hope the winning bidder is happy. I know some KLF collectors will pay this sort of price even if not original because the both tracks are extremely rare on vinyl, regardless of authenticity. There are also very few bootleg pressings known to exist so even these are considered a collectable rarity.
