Apologies if this has already been discussed; didn't see it/couldn't search.
Anyway, "Catalogue 3" and "Hooper Bay" are listed on GEMM.com right now at $100 each on cassette from a seller named Dotmusik.
Does anybody think it's legit?

you just know that IF you actually would receive them, your cassetteplayer would eat the tapes first time you tried playing them.

I'd sacrifice for them if I was sure that it wasn't some sort of scam. The seller Dotmusik doesn't have any feedback one way or the other...

if i were the buyer, i'd ask to see scans of the inlays, for one thing. it would be easy to detect the hand, or absence of mike n marcus, i reckon.

why dont all of us chip in 5 bucks each, have it sent to someone who can rip things with quality, and share them? even if it turns out a scam, it was only 5 bucks

im in for $5 and i can rip and remaster,,, but i think the tape should go to some muesum of sound or something... and i think we should just listening parties for the tape(s) not file sharing. If it is anything like the BoC want, we should respect there wishes about not having this out (yet, i hope) either way i am in.

there's no way i'm paying any money (even 5 bucks) for a listening party (i'm assuming that means streaming internet radio type deal?). rip the shit to fucking WAV and put it on an ftp just for us

Well update time!
Haven't heard anything back via email yet. However I was browsing over at discogs thru the BoC listings and was looking to see who claimed to have some of the rarer material. I noticed a user named 'charliesbeats' claimed to have a lot of them. See here.
This piqued my curiousity because on the seller's contact page on GEMM, there was a reference to charliesbeats. See here.
So maybe, just maybe, that increases the chances that this is for real.
