fatherotti Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Says it's a demo of Maria. Going for the lovely price of $99.99. Maybe someone should contact this guy and see if they could get a sample? Sorry if this needs to be moved to Q&A please do and if it's been discussed before, I apologize. Just thought it's kinda interesting haha. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Green-Day-Maria-demo-cd-r-/151338053597?pt=Music_CDs&hash=item233c736fdd
Todd Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 It's probably the original version, which is 2:28 digital, but probably a vinyl rip from the Waiting single, which explains it being a little longer. I feel bad for anyone who bids on this since it is widely available, and even on iTunes. But if it is in fact another version, that would be very cool

If not this guy'd be scamming people left and right. He has some other "rare" stuff going for the same prices.

He has some other "rare" stuff going for the same prices. I didn't see any other rare Green Day stuff, just common things. I didn't look at other bands though. He probably owns a music store or something, and got sold this and doesn't even realize what he's re-selling

James! Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 You can kinda tell is fake because it's on a cdr for a start were as a demo Shurley would have been factory pressed first with the writing
Wouter1994 Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 i think it's this. I can also bun this on a shitty CD. and sell it.
Spike Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Sorry, but you'd have to be an idiot to fall for this.
Chris_Kr93s Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 i talked to that guy a while ago.. he says all of his items are authentic cause he knew a guy from Warner in the US. All he could tell me about it was that he thinks it was just burned for an employee: "Obviously it was not made at Warner. Somebody at the studio burned it for an employee there. I think that's everything..". still looks like shit xD
Todd Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 You can kinda tell is fake because it's on a cdr for a start were as a demo Shurley would have been factory pressed first with the writingNo it wouldn't have? If it was just a demo, it would've been put on a cd-r, why would they send it out to get pressed? You think American Idiot demos are on pressed CDs? They're just on tapes and cd-rs at the stuido and at Billie's house i talked to that guy a while ago.. he says all of his items are authentic cause he knew a guy from Warner in the US. All he could tell me about it was that he thinks it was just burned for an employee: "Obviously it was not made at Warner. Somebody at the studio burned it for an employee there. I think that's everything..". still looks like shit xDCan you ask him to compare it to the waiting version? Send him a Youtube link?
Chris_Kr93s Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Can you ask him to compare it to the waiting version? Send him a Youtube link? did... lets see
WhiteTim Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Most professional studios I've been to never use cd-rs like that I wonder what studio Maria was recorded at I know Ocean Way Can Am Westlake and few others they have custom made cd r's (that has the studios logo and address and phone numbers along with space for the band and track info) Others use thermal cd-rs and have disc printed with song info etc

Liam Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 did... lets see I've done the same thing and so far, no reply.
Chris_Kr93s Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 I've done the same thing and so far, no reply. hm ok lets see.. i had a few questions about his other CDs. he always awnsered good.. even with my question whats on the CDs xD especially the GD in studio in dc one.. he said mostly interviews and a few acoustic songs..

WhiteTim Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 The original version of Maria was recorded at the Catbox in Oakland Ahh never heard of it I'm willing to bet this is just a vinyl rip of the original version tho
Liam Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Yeah he said it was the vinyl version (which you can also buy on iTunes). Nothing special about it at all.
Todd Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Yeah he said it was the vinyl version (which you can also buy on iTunes). Nothing special about it at all. Lol, is he gonna take the bid down then?
James! Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 No it wouldn't have? If it was just a demo, it would've been put on a cd-r, why would they send it out to get pressed? You think American Idiot demos are on pressed CDs? They're just on tapes and cd-rs at the stuido and at Billie's house :pCan you ask him to compare it to the waiting version? Send him a Youtube link? I realise what I said after said ;)haha
fatherotti Posted July 17, 2014 Author Posted July 17, 2014 Lol, is he gonna take the bid down then? Exactly lol. He very well should at this point. Lord have mercy on whoever buys it haha.
Chris_Kr93s Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 sorry for the late reply.. because of work! he awnsered me pretty soon. I guess by now you know it.. "Yeah sounds like the one from the 7" with the effects on his vocals."
Liam Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 sorry for the late reply.. because of work! he awnsered me pretty soon. I guess by now you know it.. "Yeah sounds like the one from the 7" with the effects on his vocals." Yeah I posted about that yesterday. I've informed him that the track can be bought on iTunes so he's pretty much just overcharging people, he's replied, but still hasn't taken it down.
Spike Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 eBay is exactly the kind of place you can charge $99.99 for a CD R. I don't even know if he should take it down. More fool the person who falls for it.
