Originally posted by Spotnick The Blue Monday CDV is available for sale on EBay, though I'd love to have it (even though I can't play it), I find that 20 pounds is too much for it...How much are worth the BM88 CDV and the TF CDV?http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2581280543&category=1057

The rule of thumb used to be that the TF CDV was about 30+ USD (~10 years ago). BM88 seems to be a little bit rarer (or used to at least). Given that, 20UKP is not a bad price. Well, at least before the dollar took a dive... :(

The 3 audio tracks play on any CD player, you just won't be able to watch the video unless you have an old 80's laserdisc player. But who cares, it's not like you've never seen the video, is it...

For completists, the "single version" featured on this CDV is ever so slightly different to the vinyl and CDS.

I recently acquired a copy from Mr Sultan at a good price but the video aspect refuses to play on my laserdisc player :( The Cd bit plays fine on my CD player. Still, it is nice to have it :)

My True Faith CDV plays fine. I'll have to se if my brother in law still has his CDV player. I have a feeling the he disposed of it when he moved house last year. :(

you can pick up laserdisc players for dirt cheap prices on ebay (if you trust that)..

of course, you need a PAL one to play these videos...

It has been alledged - but not by me - that the Phillips CD-i (remember that!) player will play these!? :scratch::confused:

Somebody has managed to track it down?!?!?!

I wonder how much the shipping would be if the item was still on offer?

Dammit! Missed the boat again!

23 December the offer expired. :(

They come up with reasonable regularity on ebay.

Incidentally, all the tracks are available elsewhere (although I think the mix of "Evil Dust" on TF CDV is slightly different to the Funky Alternatives one). The 7" version of True Faith isn't the UK edit (it's the Morning Sun Remix Edit that was released in the US on CDS) so if it's exclusive mixes you want, save your money.

Thanks again, I guess I shall have to keep my eyes peeled and continue hunting various sources in that case.
