This person is asking for 5 times the amount the band charged only a couple of weeks ago? That is outrageous profiteering- I hope it goes unsold.

Not sure that I understand her logic if the last one only pulled in £36. Maybe just chancing her arm - but she could be reading forums like this, sees that there is a demand amongst some of the diehards and is hoping to cash in on it.
Let's hope everybody resists the urge to reward such blatant greed.
A few interesting points about this ebay seller who I doubt is a Roxy Music Fan.
The auction is a private listing - bidders' identities protected.
The original auction had a "buy it now" price of £100 on it so it appears the seller had hoped for the opportunity to sell all five at £100 each. I would imagine the first one going for £36 is a major let down for them hence the starting price of £75 for the second auction.
An interested buyer asked the seller to confirm if the poster had four or only three signatures, the reply was:-
"Paul Thompson has not signed it, apologies."
When another interested buyer messaged them to say Paul Thompson's signature was missing the reply was:-
"The picture is not that great. Thompson's signature is on it. Apologies."
A bit suspicous I would say!
