Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: cotis on November 06, 2008, 08:21:16 PM saw that a few days ago, a different auction I believe though.
thought it seemed fake... anyways, congrats : ok: Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: The Rhiad on November 06, 2008, 09:48:18 PM I thought that was supposed to be a fake?
Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: troccoli on November 06, 2008, 10:51:35 PM Just because someone says it's a fake don't make it a fake. Also, usually poeple with 100% positive feedback don't tarnish their rep with fake items. ;)

Also, usually poeple with 100% positive feedback don't tarnish their rep with fake items. ;) agreed, but is there proof that it's real? I'd personally rather not spend that much on something that I wasn't quite sure was 'authentic'...since I am interested in getting one if it is not just some fan-made garbage..

Just because the feedback is 100 doesn't mean you can't get burned. I took the plunge I suppose - I just hope there's a soft landing! Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: AliveOrJustBreathing on November 07, 2008, 05:09:33 AM Congragulations for taking the plunge to purchase this item. I can confirm that its not fake myself, mainly because this is the exact one I recieved in the UK, from the editor of the magazine I work for : ok:
However mine is not for sale. Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: wadey on November 07, 2008, 05:37:29 AM NICE 1 !!
I was watching that 1 myself but it got a bit high for my liking though..... i cant believe everyone thought it was fake :lmao:.........its good they did though cos it did keep the price down slightly somoene says its fake and they all jump on board. there are quite a few of these of ebay right now. THIS IS THE ONE THAT WAS FAKE.........IF YOU LOOK ITS DIFFERENT FROM TROCCOLIS http://cgi.ebay.com/GUNS-N-ROSES-Chinese-Democracy-RARE-PR0MO-CD-Single_W0QQitemZ220304474531QQihZ012QQcategoryZ307QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem (http://cgi.ebay.com/GUNS-N-ROSES-Chinese-Democracy-RARE-PR0MO-CD-Single_W0QQitemZ220304474531QQihZ012QQcategoryZ307QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: cotis on November 07, 2008, 09:11:45 AM yes but, how do you know it is fake?
troccoli's looked fake to me at first glance, and I'm still skeptical. that one you posted wadey looks a lot more fake, but how could we really know? Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: Mr. Redman on November 07, 2008, 09:54:12 AM They're Aussie;

Post by: Alan on November 07, 2008, 11:24:00 AM one thing i've noticed with these "promo" discs is that none of the discs have black frog on them.
it just makes me wonder how authentic they are since the the uzi suicide logo was on the old discs i'd have thought black frog would be on these.

There is a Black Frog mention if you look carefully Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: wadey on November 07, 2008, 02:34:08 PM yes but, how do you know it is fake? troccoli's looked fake to me at first glance, and I'm still skeptical. that one you posted wadey looks a lot more fake, but how could we really know? i would say it was fake because the pic is a scan of the item and not a camera pic. If it was a silver or acetate the scan would be shite because the light from the scanner would reflect back and all you would see was a bright flash and no actual pic. looking at the scan i would say it was a white CDR type disc that has been lightscribed or some other type of printed media. The seller however has excellent feedback and sells quite a few promos so i could be wrong. but my gut feeling is to stay away.... edit one more thing i noticed is that the pic on the CD is in colour. i figured that a promo CD would be black text/print as standard and not colour. most pic CD's are regular issues and very rarely promos. the idea of a promo is to keep it simple and keep the costs down. But hey what the fuck do i know !!! ;) Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: Ulises on November 07, 2008, 03:34:56 PM This is going to be released to the public?
Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: troccoli on November 07, 2008, 08:14:11 PM This is going to be released to the public? Cd single is getting released in Germany at least. As far as I know. This is for everyone (and a little embarassing that I don't know this but hey you learn something new every day): What is black frog??? Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: The Rhiad on November 07, 2008, 11:46:25 PM Axls band label. Like Uzi Suicide but now its Black Frog.

Post by: don_vercetti on November 09, 2008, 02:14:38 PM When did Black Frog come about? Never even heard mention of it until today.
Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay! Post by: wadey on November 09, 2008, 02:28:39 PM When did Black Frog come about? Never even heard mention of it until today. i first heard of it a couple of years ago.......I got a couple of boots which had 'blach frog' on them instead of 'black frog'... there is a thread somewhere but i cant find it now Title: Re: Alternate Chinese Democracy Promo CD, That I just won on eBay!
