There’s also two other rare singles on tradera:
För Dina Bruna ... (Fan Club singel)
http://www.tradera.com/auction/aid_19995641
Ingenting Av ... (röd vinylsingel)
http://www.tradera.com/auction/aid_19995642
Though I know these singles are rare and indeed worth a lot I would never ever pay that much for an item. I am really curious to know if it’s going to be sold and for what price.

All these prices are considered to be fairly low, so they will surely be sold. One can’t regard some countries’ low currency value in cases like this.

@tevensso:
I wouldn’t call the Swedish crown a “strong currency” either, so that’s not the point here. I wonder how many people is Roxette feeding... You know, all those who were (and still are) selling stuff at high prices. They should be grateful to Per and Marie for make it possible...

I’m not an economist, but I think it’s stronger than the Argentinian currency. It’s mostly Argentininans whining about the prices anyway.

For your information:
1 euro = 9.49 Swedish Crowns
1 euro = 3.62 Argentine Pesos

@Room Service: If a Swede think that 500 SEK is a descent price for this 7” (even cheap me do!), then there must be something wrong with comparing currencies like you do, or am I wrong?! I think you should rather see how much an average Argentinian earn and compare that to what a Swede earn. Just a thought.. ;-)

@Room Service
I did not think it´s fair to make people responsible for earning money with Roxette...
it´s all a market thing, a thing of offer and demand...
I have doubt that there would be a seller who says: “You pay to much...half the price is enough.”
So imho it is up to everyone self how much he/she is willing to pay for anything...if the other person earns money with that fine for him...as long as it are original products and no poor copies...

Excellent! That means all Argentinian fans stop their whining right now as you are the richest of us all.

It is now on 1325 SEK!!!!! That it is NOT worth IMHO... I paid a bit more than a third for mine and that one is in more or less mint condition!

I bought mine for 1500 SEK from Håkan Söderkvist in Getinge this year (2005) and today is it the normal price for the Billy E.P. It have been on Tradera another time this year too and it was sold for 2145 SEK or if it was 2045 SEK I don´t remember but it was around 2000 SEK and it´s a crazy price for the Billy E.P. If I will buy the Billy E.P. again I don´t pay more than 1500 SEK.

@Earth: I can just inform you that Håkan (who I know a bit) have had that Billy single for sale for many years and not been able to sell it. 1500 SEK is NOT a normal price for this single. The price has not changed. I bought mine 4-5 years ago, but I have seen it quite some times since then for prices between 500-800 SEK. People who pay more than 700-800 for a mint one are paying too much.

@p_mson Gyllene tider stuff have change price very much more than 4-5 years ago!
per_mson said on November 4, 2005 20:06:
@gt_pelle: If they have changed they have gotten cheaper. I remember when I paid 100 Euros for a Beating Heart 7”. One year ago I bought two of them for 30 Euros each.

WOW, I am going to order no less than one dozen of it!!! It’s SO cheap!!!
