One day i'll buy a record player and record good quality versions The versions i downloaded aren't that bad though (some of the recordings i have of unreleased songs are terrible quality!) I used to really want them to be released digitally/on CD but now i'd actually rather they weren't - it's a shame for everyone who spent ridiculous amounts of money on the EP And i kind of like that fact that they're so rare (well of course i do now i have them ). But good quality/new versions would be wonderful

The weird thing is... this EP is limited to 1000 copies. Same as the Lupercalia box set. Now I do not think that the box will fetch such high sums in the next few years! It probably has to do with the fact that it has two unique songs on it (though you can get them everywhere on the internet) and is from his early period which is in general better than his later output...?

^and it is the only version of it. the lupercalia box set is lovely, but the material is also out digitally, on cd and on vinyl. the first EP however just exists as 12". i wouldn't say the earlier material is 'better'. but it hasn't been played (radio/live) or talked about (interviews/internet) as often as the lupercalia material. so the EP material is sort of 'rare' from a lot of points of view. add the fact of it being the first release and you've got a real piece of treasure for fans.

I know this is an old thread but I want this!! This is so funny, I never collect vinyl and only a few other things - Hello Kitty and maybe 1 or 2 other bands, but I've suddenly found the need to have everything Patrick. LOL. This has to stop! I think it's just because I know I won't see him for awhile and need something to occupy myself with. This is the only one I've found so far, but I've signed up on Discogs just incase. There's no way I'll pay this much since Patrick doesn't get any money for it. Unless of course I get everything else I've looked for. Then it would seem like I have to have it. I also really want "The City" w/the red album. I've found it on a couple of sites but I'm waiting because I've bid on some other things first. www.ebay.com/itm/PATRICK-WOLF-The-Patrick-Wolf-EP-12-2002-Faith-And-Industry-RARE-/120990942126?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item1c2b9f43aeI really want that "Lycanthropy" mug you have schizoeclectic! Is there a thread somewhere to sell PW items? Or is that allowed? I see a few individual posts but it would be nice to have a running thread. IDK.

I know I've actually bid on several other things on ebay but at the last minute the seller ran up the auction then turned around and re-listed them 5 minutes later. I'm going to keep my eye on that one it's been up for a while.

jessie I have a spare copy of 'The City' on Vinyl, RED Vinyl that you can have for free in return for helping me get S&R on iTunes that time. Only thing is that the actual packaging is quite scuffed from carrying it in the rain after Patrick's Dublin gig :/ There is no thread for selling PW things, people usually just mention it in the ''Your collection thread'' or would create another thread just with their eBay link. Yeah the Lycanthropy mug is great. I think I spent €10 for it on. eBay which is pricey for a mug but fine because it's Patrick. I've never seen the mug around since then :/ I agree with niwo that is a great price for the EP well mainly cause I have transferred the price into euro and it's about €30 cheaper than what I paid.

schizoeclectic That would be awesome! That's the one I want! I found a couple online but the seller hasn't responded to me yet. Do you want me to at least send you postage?? That will make it special and I love that it would have a Patrick story behind it! You are the best

Jessie, you do get it cheaper occasionally, mine was £25 I'd wanted it for about 2 years but i'd never seen it for under £100. But then last year a few came up a bit cheaper (but still over £50). Then the week before my birthday one came up on ebay for 99p (i nearly died!!!) - for days i was the only bidder but it ended up going for £45 and i was outbid at the last minute. But then on the morning of my birthday i woke up to an email from Discogs saying "New item for sale on your wantlist" - it was the PW EP for £25!!! (It was so strange because i'd been thinking about how i was turning 19, the age Patrick was when he released it, and i was also seeing Patrick the next day!) ;D So emm anyway... (sorry for that big long story!) if you want it now and don't mind spending the money you should just get it, but if you wait long enough it's bound to come up cheaper eventually. If you add it to your wantlist on discogs they'll email you when new ones come on sale. Edit: Hold on i was being an idiot and thinking $70 was roughly equal to £70 but just checked and apparently it's £44, so yeah you're probably not going to find it cheaper than that. (Actually in about 3 years, the only time i've seen it cheaper than that was when i bought mine!) So yes, just ignore everything i've said above, sorry! I REALLY want the Lycanthropy mug - it came back on sale on the website not too long ago but when i tried to buy it, it said it wasn't available so it must have sold out instantly. I've nearly got it on ebay a few times but other people always end up bidding huge amounts for it

Haha I'm going to keep an eye out for it and yes converting $$$! Most everything Patrick on eBay & discogs is in pounds or Euros and the $ isn't worth much right now. I'm going to try to get the others first then if that one comes back around I'll try to grab it.

For those who like the EP artwork, I was able to make good scans of it a while ago which can be found on my website under the PW EP section! www.runoutgrooves.com/artists/patrickwolf/[/end of shameless propaganda]
