selling some VERY rare stuff

[Cool As Ice Cream]

hi guys,

i’m a long-time pumpkins collector currently based in australia. over the years i’ve accumulated a collection of over 300 original cds and promos and almost 200 factory pressed bootleg cds. the vast majority of my bootleg collection was purchased from collector-cd stores in tokyo.

anyway, for various reasons, i’ve decided to sell my collection. i’ll be putting it up on ebay gradually but if there’s anything that you want to purchase separately, please let me know.

here’s a photo of some of the items:
in concert 581 bbc transcription disc
aeroplane flies high french promo
siamese sampler french promo
end is the beginning is the end ‘faster/slower’ master-disc
1979 mixes french promo
adore japanese in canvas bag
music of the smashing pumpkins 1991 – 1998 chrysalis promo
perfect internal promo (only place you can get electro-breakbeat dub mix on cd)
untitled and other choice cuts canadian promo

[Arthur]

Hi kittykat, welcome. Sorry to see such a cool collection go away from you. Cool however that you found this place to offer it. Anyway, if you are ready to let them go, there are a few cds on that pic I would be interested in.

-BBC
-Perfect
-The end is the beginning is the end

Let’s PM about it, yes.

[Cool As Ice Cream]

for the perfect promo cd, is it possible to post a picture of the cd itself?

[kittykat]

here’s a pic of the perfect promo:

[kittykat]

thanks everyone for your interest.
here is a few other things from my collection,

siva australian
i am one australian
zero mexican in slimcase (rare!)
adore canadian promo
machina australian promo
greatest hits early promo with different tracklisting to retail version
cr03 usa promo
untitled french promo
untitled pop mix promo

[Cool As Ice Cream]

wow. lots of extremely cool stuff.

how come you don’t have the complete machina 2 US promo set (all 4 cds)?

and congratulations, arthur, on scoring that perfect promo. i wanted that so bad, but i’m happy for you.

I guess it’s my lucky day today…

Mellon Collie jukebox went my way also, and all 4 of them cost me 11,21 bucks ex shipment. [/quote:7d926si7]
Like I said a few minutes ago…

Thank you Cool As Ice Cream. I was REALLY lucky here, because I woke up this morning at 7:15 somewhere, made myself a coffee and a breakfast and refreshed the forum posts a bit later before I went to go shower. Normally I try to welcome the new members asap, and kittykat posted this just a few minutes before that… I have never seen that Perfect promo before. Must be pretty rare I guess. Also very happy with that BBC disc of course.

And I’m pretty sure I left you guys enough goodies, you should see his whole collection list. Dazey, this list of kittykat contains as much booties as genuine rarities, I think you should check it out also. Also I’m glad kittykat didn’t go somewhere else first to offer this extremely cool collection. He could have gone to eBay also you know… (Why didn’t you, kittykat?)

On a sidenote, today I had a nice chit-chat with kittykat, as he happened to know 1 of the other founders of SPfreaks also…

kittykat, you rock!

[manillascissor]

Insane rarities! So awesome.

[kittykat]

Thanks everyone, for your messages.

The reason I have decided to sell is because I am relocating overseas in a few months. This is the 4th time since I’ve started collecting SP cds (over 7 years ago) and it’s just too stressful to take them all with me each time

I was intending to put them on ebay but if I can sell some of them directly to a collector for a price that I’m happy with then I’ll do so.

And with the CR03 promo, the person I bought them from only had those 2… not sure why you would split the set up, but anyway…

Just curious kittykat… Is this website being helpful to you in selling your collection?

Could you maybe update us what is sold and what is not?

Cool. Quite a list already in just a few days.

[Arthur]

And today I received my Xmas box from Australia stuffed with several rarities previously owned by kittykat. Boy oh boy! That BBC disc with 10 live tracks from the 1993/09/15 – Manchester UK concert… oh man, that CD alone is just awesome to hold in my hands! And that’s only 1 of them… Several TEITBITE acetate/promos that are not even on the site yet, that Perfect Virgin inhouse disc, etc. etc. it’s simply astonishing!

Speaking to you is a happy collector.

(but still feeling sorry a bit for kittykat, as I know once he was as happy as I am now, and sometimes selling these things can feel like a little piece is torn from your heart… Take care kittykat!)

[Cool As Ice Cream]

my package from kittykat has also arrived (last friday, actually).

[kittykat]

Since you’re paying 10% of the auctions’ final price, I’m not complaining, kittykat!

Kidding!

You should make scans (or take closer pics) of those booties before you send them out, because I notice a few we don’t have yet! Front jewelcase, back jewelcase and cd, would be nice!

Good luck selling kittykat, those 2 you advertise here should attract a few good bidders, as they are RARE!

[kittykat]

hehehehe
sure, not a problem! for some reason i thought that bootlegs were no longer being updated…
i only have a digital camera though, but i’ll get right onto it

That looks kinda nice Kitty.Great stuff indeed.

[kittykat]

Hi guys,

Some of you may remember me from when I sold my SP collection last year. At the time I was moving overseas. Anyway, I’m back in Australia for a short period and still have a few cds left. Let me know if there is anything you’re after and I’ll have a look!
I still have the Zero Mexican CD in slimcase instead of standard jewel case and this is super rare.
Also, Zwan Mary star of the Sea Benelux Promo Acetate
Let It Come Down Sampler CD
Walking Shade UK promo with completely different artwork from the standard one
Walking Shade Swedish promo

Thanks guys Just message me with offers for any of these

[amnesia]

Welcome back dude. You might remember me.

Walking Shade UK promo with completely different artwork from the standard one

Can you provide pictures of the one above.

Also, the Walking Shade Swedish promo , is it a sticker promo?

[kittykat]

Hi there,
yup! of course I remember
pls see the following pic – UK promo is bottom left, swedish promo is bottom right. neither of them are on this website (i think). the swedish one doesn’t have any artwork, just the cd in the sleeve. Also, the UK promo has a sticker on the back with promotional info.

[Cool As Ice Cream]

i’m interested in the mexican zero single, and the benelux promo for zwan-msots.

that james iha-licd album sampler is a gold cd-r, right? i believe i have that one already.

[amnesia]

Ill take those 2 BC promos

[Cool As Ice Cream]
