I died a little when I saw this. link
A $30+ USD vinyl record turned into a $5 USD beverage coaster...
What other atrocities like this one have you seen?
PS: On the other hand, I managed to get a hold of a Liar/Doing All Right and a KYA/Lily of the Valley/God Save the Queen 7" record for $1 and $2 USD respectively. And not in a flea market, sold by an old lady, but OFF AN INTERNET STORE. Lucky me! :D
There are far worse ebay atrocities than a record turned into a coaster. The record might have been scratched all to hell, but there is just no excuse for this: link
;-D
That Freddie resin figure is horrible.
What's more alarming is that I HAD SEEN IT BEFORE!
Could it be possible that it was actually mass produced?
I thought it was some weirdo's work.
Have you seen the pseudo official Freddie statues sold at the Montreux Bazaar and (at one time) at the QOL Store?
I had them in my hands back in 2002 and I couldn't believe how bad they looked. And the more expensive one was about 500 USD!!
You should not be surprised about the ugly statue - it's a mini replica of the big ugly statue :) But then, it's art and who am I to criticise a piece of art ?
