We’ve seen some weird Revelation items up for sale recently. First we saw some crafty swindler sell some No For An Answer 7″ with a dodgy “found in the closet” style numbering on the sleeve. After that someone else took the piss and listed a broken Chain of Strength 7″, which someone actually bought. This then brought some dude out of the woodwork who had twenty Chain of Strength 7″s with no cover for sale. And now it appears that baosgarden is trying to take this game to the next level by selling a front cover of the ‘Together’ 7″. Yup, that’s right, there’s no record or insert in sight here. This is the front cover only. Oh, and just in case when I said ‘front cover’ you thought I meant ‘sleeve’, then be warned… I meant ‘front cover’ only. This here is just the front half of the cover. If you happen to want the back cover too then you’re shit out of luck… although it wouldn’t surprise me if we see some opportunist selling that separately next week.
I’m sure that this item will more than sell itself, but just to give it an extra push, dude adds in some crucial detail that is sure to send most people into a bidding frenzy:
“There is a small tackhole on the top edge and a small scratch in the middle. Perfect for a test pressing or a frame!“.
I would question the statement ‘perfect for a test pressing’ given that the tests of this I have seen come with a cover anyway. But yes, I concur, this would be perfect for a frame. And right above the frame the buyer could get an engraved plaque that reads “Check out this crap that I was stupid enough to buy on ebay”.

Can’t wait to see how much this sells for.
