If anybody is feeling flush enough to buy this and send it over, I'd transfer it to high-res like the others, and give the owner a couple DVDs (and send the LP back, of course!) containing all the existing transfers by way of thanks.

Dude I'm not done listening to even the first disc of your release yet, but I am on board. If I could have the seller send it directly to wherever you are I'll do it, too. I'd wanna have it back at the end of the process though

Thanks for the offer mate - very much appreciated. However thinking about it even a sealed new LP is no guarantee of a good pressing, and for that price it would be a gamble. You couldn't really send it back again if there was a fault, especially after sending it out to me first. Even more of a gamble would be sending it over to the UK, and from the UK back again to yourself, without it getting bent/damaged en route. If you'd be willing to risk all that, then cool. If not, I'm still keeping an eye out for a mint pressing here in the UK. They turn up fairly often so it shouldn't take too long.
Hmm, well how are you supposed to know whether it is a good pressing before you buy it regardless? At least if it's new you know that nobody has futzed with it before, right? So lemme know if you change your mind. The obstacle here might be getting them to send it to you, if the guy requires PayPal confirmed. As you say, two transatlantic trips before you even receive it is worse than none, and more expensive to boot. It wouldn't take so long as I'm on the Atlantic seaboard but would still of course add to the time and cost. But sellers all have diff policies, so I'll see if I could talk them into it - they tend to listen to you more when you have perfect feedback - in the event you decide to go through with it.
Re feedback (the other kind) and common courtesy - I feel your pain, and do hope you change your mind on that front, too. Unfortunately this kinda thing is often thankless :(
That's just it - you wouldn't know until it had been played. So it could be awsome, or it might have a few clicks/pops/warps. I doubt after it had been sent to me, then back that you'd be able to get a refund from the seller if it did turn out to be bad. I'd hate for you to be $40 down if that was the case, but really appreciate your offer.
As I said over at MySpleen, pretty much Star Wars'd out for now. If I see a mint copy of Jedi here in the UK, I'll definitely buy it, and transfer it. It's in my Ebay alert list. But no promises. If it happens I'll be sure to PM those that have been good enough to comment here, and will privately send out copies to you. I won't have this one put up on any torrent sites this time. I'm not happy with the whole legal angle, even though these are truly meant to be historical preservations of the long out of print LPs for those that already own them, not to mention my own homage to Mr Williams and his incredible music.
Really appreciate those who have taken the time to comment here, and I'm very happy they are being enjoyed. And thanks again to Antcufaalb for taking the time and trouble to share these captures.
As I said, if I get around to Jedi, will PM those who have posted...
Out of here for a while - there's a whole world out there ;)
