Well, it's not like what goes up for auction on the internet is a secret and no it's not mine. I just thought folks will be interested to watch this one sell, that's all. I don't see this one in the database. Does Tom have a copy?
I guess it doesn't have a UPC code? Does anyone know why that is?

Anyway, here it is, for those who want to watch it for the entertainment of it.
I'll bid but I wont be going crazy. I will say, he did have it as or best offer and before bidding started I offered 50 - 75 and then 100 and all got auto declined so I gave up lol. I don't need it nor want it anymore than 100$ I don't think lol I'll see what happens but if it's crazy past that, like I suspect such a rare disc will go for, it will likely be well past anything I'll bother trying to add to my collection. Even though it would be pretty cool to have. I have a feeling I've seen this one before but I don't know where it would have been. Maybe there was one for sale back a year or two when I started collecting and I just didn't pay it much attention, not knowing it's rarity or maybe I saw a photo or article on it here on this site? If so, I can't find much info on it now.

Well anyway, it will probably go far beyond anything for my collection. If anyone has any info or a link to info, it would be cool to read up on it but it's not going to change my desire to have it much past 100$ just curious now is all.

Check it out:

So I didn't win that auction. I actually bid up to 125$ and still lost it. I figured being a bit more rare than most CED's I bid a bit more and get it but someone must of been seeking that one for their collection.

Well anyway, I did get one. One came back up for sale for the same $125 I was willing to pay, and this one had an even cleaner label to boot. It, along with RCA's service alignment disc were both being sold for $125 so I bought them both and added them to my collection.

You can find them quickly, as I placed them towards the top with the numbered ones. They are #6 and #7 if you want to check 'em out.

Those are the highest priced CED's I've added to my collection. I had to pay $100 for a few others; such as Teen wolf - Back to the future - The dark Crystal (PAL version) - as you'd suspect, it was the shipping that boosted that one up, no so much it's rarity. Though even watching UK ebay for one, it did take a good 6 months, so they're not common or at least not commonly sold, that is. I think that's it for the pricier ones but these two, being much more rare still, set me back even more. I wasn't looking for either CED but what nice copies for the collection so I decided to spring for 'em. No regrets.

Same seller put up a copy of RCA's service test disc. Same price. I'm making that dude rich lol! So cool to have in the collection though. Slotted #7 and moved Zenith down to #8 slot.
