I see your point. But suspicious reason/timing can also have a positive effect. For all we know it could actually be orchestrated by BOC/Warp/Hex/friends to drum up hype/support/sales, could be to gauge the demand/popularity, could be to remind/inform of its existence in prep for back-cat. release etc...
either way, wouldn't the BEST situation for everybody be that it instantly sold for millions? I mean wouldn't that speak volumes and send the message we all feel?

Much like Jay Leno & friends enjoying first dibs on new autos, I'm sure there is a growing list of (Solange-Knowles-rich) folks bidding, to whom money is "no object".

If you think they used one particular tape brand or copied them all at once, would be somewhat absurd. I think they just made copies willy nilly when ever an opportunity presented itself, like sending a demo off or a present for a hexagon sun member, friend or what ever speculative reason. So they no doubt used what ever tapes were on hand at the time.. Unless you can show multiple occasions of the same tape being used, then go ahead.
yea i think but you also only think as well but then... you're also in no doubt. you're not so sure either.
yea rolls eyes, was just a thought, i'm not sure either.

I think my theory has more credibility than yours
Judging by tape brand used for other releases, though I realise they weren't all made at the same time

So much weirdness in this thread. Everyone needs to chill out a bit. She has every right to sell the tapes if she wants to. Nobody is getting ripped off, they'll sell for whatever someone is willing to pay. The seller doesn't need to explain themselves for selling their own belongings. I hope they sell for a decent price and go to a good home.

ah but you still only think with that theory, you now also think these particular tapes weren't made at the same time, i think they could have. claiming credibility already are we? wow, how arrogant.

about as much sense as your own theories, albeit the self righteous kind

Both get over yourselves
Chances are those tapes were run off on demand with whatever they managed to pick up at the time.

but as for me i have no issue with the fact that she is selling them, i just think that whoever bids on this is an idiot and that there is something else at work than simply trade when you deal with collectors
also, that something is the way it is doesn't mean that you have to like it or that by saying that it should be otherwise you don't understand how it is
you might wanna go for a 6th edit, and maybe even a 7th because yeah well
yeah

ooh they're selling from Hove, which means they can't be more than a square-mile from where I'm living now.
this is the closest I'll ever be to AFOT. I think I can smell it.
