If you put them on eBay with WARNING: THIS IS A BOOTLEG plastered all over I don't see where you could go wrong. eBay may cancel the auction if they see it, failing that the worst that could happen is the buyer would simply return it to you for a full refund. Alternatively do what Tim did recently and sell the original along with the bootleg. That way a buyer can be safe in the knowledge they're getting a genuine article. Of course, plastering WARNING: THIS IS A BOOTLEG over your auction may be seen by some (especially in the KLF circle) as ironic/a publicity stunt and you may find the price rocket accordingly... ;) -----Original Message----- From: klf-bounces+chris=k23productions.com@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:klf-bounces+chris=k23productions.com@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of John Milne Sent: 02 November 2005 09:47 To: All bound for Mu-Mu Land. Subject: RE: [KLF] KLF Online... eh, not. Thanks for the feedback, Thomas. The only bootlegs I would sell on ebay would be ones I bought commercially (certainly not my own "Lost Sounds of Mu Volume 3"!) These would include Marshall Dickson's "Lost Sounds" 1 & 2 and "White Room OST", "Ultra Rare Trax", "Arkive 2" (Mike Dutton's - I seem to have lost Volume 1), PVC Communications' "Bad Wisdom" soundtrack, K-Foundation CD, etc., a couple of the CDRs I picked up at Barrowlands Market in Glasgow last year, and Duttons' "White Room demos" cassette ... some of these are CDRs and some are silver. Then there's the vinyl Dutch bootlegs that came out in 2000 (JAMSLP1, KLF8R, JAMSLP5, etc. etc.) and Dutton's "Italian Mix" of "Madrugada Eterna" (ETERNA23) ... oh, dear ...! It does bother me slightly that these would be sold as part of my KLF collection, but since they are technically bootlegs, it could damage my ebay account. I suppose I should put something on the listings stating that they are not official KLF records, but I am selling them as part of my collection, and most have been around for so long they are regarded as "official" parts of the discography (like Beatles or Sex Pistols bootlegs) ... I could also state that Bill & Jimmy are very unlikely to care, and these CDs are intended for collectors only. What do people think? The bootlegs are a small part of what I'm selling in total, but within my KLF collection, they would be around 10-15%. John

Greetings!
KLF.de is offline at the moment due to us moving servers from Alturo to Strato, a german web space provider who offers less space but a far better service. I just signed on with one of my alternate email accounts and are slowly catching up with all the stuff I have been missing (and it seems nobody even missed us).
@ John
I don't mind you selling the R&R on eBay - I am even curious about what price it will score. :-) Just be careful with the description, since eBay doesn't like bootlegs that much (although with The KLF, they don't seem to care too much). And sorry for not posting anything about your auctions on our website, but I guess my excuse is quite good.
@ Custom Clothing & Logo Updates
For refreshed logos and KLF writings for t-shirts, boxer shorts and bathing suits, Daniel is the right person to ask, as he usually comes up with far better designs than I do.
Would it be interesting for some of you to get some clothes printed with new and updated designs? On a non-profit base of course, just to cover the printing costs. And maybe the occasional quid for hosting the website as soon as it gets back online. :-)
@ Current state of KLF 3.0
3.0 is currently in (forced) stasis, since we can't get too many things done. We still hope to go online on 23rd November, and I think this is a realistic aim. Ah well, guess all those server problems get me some time to do some more glossary entries. You are still invited to participate. ;-)
