Boards of Canada vinyl back on Ebay for $5700, original buyer fails to pay
Remember that Boards of Canada fan who found a rare “teaser” vinyl released to market their upcoming new album? Remember him putting it on sale via Ebay and the record fetching over $5000? Thought it was too good to be true at the time? Well, you were right – as now it’s been reposted on the online marketplace after a series of “non-paying bidders”.
The —— / —— / —— / XXXXXX / —— / —— 12-inch, which only runs for a matter of seconds and features static, noise and utterances of numbers, is now listed as a straight-up Buy It Now for the original sale price, $5700.
The seller is also accepting Best Offer purchases, with ten bids already made but rejected. The listing has 29 days left on sale.
Anybody who doesn’t have that sort of money to spend can just wait until the band’s new LP, Tomorrow’s Harvest, drops on 10 June via Warp.
