Hmm. I seem to recall the book was quite expensive to buy at time of publishing (the reason I wasn't able to get my copy), so I guess the seller must have bought copies to sell on, thinking they would go up in value? :?:

Unfortunately a lot of Stina related items have failed to increase in vlaue and many have in fact lost value,the single track 'Sharon & Hope cd promo being a good example.

( a copy went unsold on eBay this morning at £0.01p ) :(

Record collecting is pretty much a thing of the past.

Even eil.com (the (once) notorious over-priced store) is now having monthly sales to get rid off their junk.

A copy of the mega-rare "This is Nina Nordenstam" went for £4 the other day. :shock:

Yep,eBay has been very quiet over the last year or so. It's not just records etc,it's everything.

I never bought the book as I have not contributed to it. I would love a copy containing Stina's autograph but this seller doesn't have one with an autograph. So these books are definately overpriced.

I didn't contribute either, when was the book put together? I'm trying to think why I wouldn't have contributed to it, but my memory is not what is once was :lol:

Speaking of Stina books, I have my Dynamite book to cherish (and I would save it in a fire too :lol: ), I wonder if that will ever show up on ebay....

The book is themed around 'The World Is Saved' songtitles so I guess it must have been the summer/autumn of 2004.
CQD went belly-up around February of the following year so 2004 seems right.

The pdf of the first draft (which I have) is dated Sept 29th,2003(!),although the file arrived in my computer in July '04.I think the music got done later (I'm sure mine did,anyway) and the last touches were added then too.

Ah that explains a lot, it's around the time I was leaving the UK for Australia, 2003-2004 very hectic time of life for me and I think for a large bulk of 2004 I was without a computer! Explains why I missed that project! Shame tho, would have liked a chance to have taken part! Damn having a life and all that crap hehe :lol:

Last copy of 3 attracted no bids so he's put it up again (same,slightly higher price for last copy of £24.99 plus postage).
Maybe someone here who never got a copy should try and beat him down?

Just goes to show how long the album was ultimately delayed for (over a year it seems) if Stina was releasing the track listing details so far in advance. ( 'This Is' had to wait over a year for its release after it was completed as well).

No wonder Stina never comes across as being terribly enthusiastic with her album relaeses?,....they must seem pretty old to her by the time we get to hear them. :(
