Microphones Test Cassette for sale/trade

[pantingfish]

A few weeks ago (Whenever record store day was) Phil put up 20 of the Microphones Test Cassette. I don't know if these are the original cassettes or if these are new ones that he made for record store day, but I do know that there were only 20 of them and were all gone in a few hours. I was lucky enough to get one, but I'm sorta having boardline buyer remorse. I really have no need for the cassette, this is the only cassette I've bought in years and the only one I own currently, so I feel like someone else would appreciate it more than I. I'm also hoping I can use it to get some of Phils other vinyls and such with it. I figured I'd offer it to you guys before I put it on ebay. I can post pictures of the cassette if you guys wish, it says test on the front, came with a circular insert with the track names on one side and a picture of a reel to reel on the other side. I've played this tape twice, once in my car, and another on my home deck to make MP3s of it. Now I'm open to cash offers and trades, but the trades are going to have to be pretty good. Here are a few things I'm looking for

Mount Eerie Dances with Wolves vinyl
Thanksgiving Pt. 2 of 3 colored vinyls
Mount Eerie Pts 6 and 7 book
Microphones It Was Hot We Stayed in the Water vinyl
Microphones Don't wake me Up vinyl
What Wonder?
Little Bird Flies into a Big Black Cloud

Seeing the rarity of the tape I don't think I would trade it for just one vinyl, it would have to be a combination of some. And also I'm down for trading for most Electrelane Vinyls or anything else you have to offer. I don't know if I'm asking for to much, or for to little but I thought I would give you guys a chance at it before ebay.

This thread made me chuckle.

Now you guys are making me want to keep the tape. I saw someone else posted a tape for sale awhile ago.

I'm the one who posted that the tape was available. I posted the information here so other fans could buy one, not so someone could buy it to make a quick buck or to trade for other releases.

If you're truly having buyer's remorse why don't you sell it to one of the people in the original thread who missed out? For exactly what you paid, $18.75.

Would anyone be willing to upload the tracks from the cassette?

You should be able to find them on the internet. Check scrumptunes.blogspot.com

I'm not sure I understand. I have no need for this tape, I don't collect tapes, only records and it has just been sitting on my desk I figured someone else would want it, someone who actually collect tapes. Yes, I was asking for to much in this thread at first as far as the trades go, no one here ever gave me an offer, so I put it up on ebay. Is this guy a dick too?

Why'd you buy it if you have no need for it and don't collect tapes?

There were people in the original thread who said they wanted it but didn't act quick enough. If you wanted it to go to someone who would appreciate it you should have talked to them.

You're a dick because you bought a tape 3 months ago pretty much just to flip it. That other person is not a dick because they bought a tape 13 years ago. If you had not immediately offered the cassette up for trade and instead sat on it until 2024 you wouldn't be a dick either.

I've somehow never seen the tape version of Tests, but DAMN it's a nice package!
