Yes!!

finally tracked down a copy of 'The Photographer's Wife'.

99p on ebay - total result!

Where were you all during the auction? - or have all you diehards long gotten a copy?

Nice to hear it in all its uncompressed glory at last.
(Thanks Alex for the preview though)

Well done! 99p?

I hardly ever use ebay these days, can't remember the last time I even checked it for Stina stuff.

Long gotten,in this case

I just don't check anymore

same here but still a bargain at 99p.

Apart from the promo cassette of ASCHE, there isn't anything else that i search for these days.

I still look-one thing that seems to be incredibly rare now is the Little Star CD single with the remixes on and a volume control on the front cover.I've got the 12" but I'd rather have the CD.
Also 'Sisters of Garbo' a compilation,which has a photo of Stina playing the piano,apparently.Has anyone got that (the photo,not bothered about the CD),to save me the hassle of hunting around for it? There is one photo of Stina playing the piano,I know of,just not sure if it's the same one...

ahah... funny, I just don't care about owning these rare tracks/ep/cd/tapes. That's my reason.

The This Is DVD and my copy of Dynamite book I'd quite happily run back into my house to save if it were on fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just remember saying when I watched the DVD to my partner, look look she does move!!!! Hehehe....

Besides the DVD is worth it alone for the fabulous Welcome To Happiness video

ok,so i'm (we're ?) biased but I still think it was a great shame that the 'This Is' promo dvd wasn't made commercially available in the shops. Its a very diverse but always entertaining collection of films,soundtracked by some rather excellent songs.
'This is' is still my favourite Stina album so yeah,I'm biased.

That's true. I'm sure today the DVD would have been bundled as a bonus disc.


And regarding Frank's comment. Sure Stina is not that interesting to collect, she hasn't released that much interesting collectables.

But I'm still looking for the Dynamite books and promos, however had not seen or bought a Stina item is probalby a year+++.

And congrats to morrissey - PW is great.

Well, ok, I'd love to have the DVD too. These vids are really gorgeous. But not at any price.

What I also meant is : if I have the sound, I don't care about the object. At least with her. Strange ? Indeed.

I only own limited edition CD/EP/LP of Sugar, Kat Onoma and Unwound. And I wasn't looking for them...

Not really Franck. Its only Virginia Astley and Stina who I collect,so with the vast majority of my favourite artists, although I try and collect all their recordings in one (usually CD) format,then thats enough for me so I don't bother with any other format.

I know what you mean, not strange at all.
