Hello everyone I thought I would ask for some advice. I bought an unofficial 7 CD Set called "Abba - The ultimate demo and rarities collection" quite a few years ago now. It is a staggering collection of demos and rare mixes and also has stickers on some of the CD's with Anders Eljas name, address and phone number. I paid a lot for them. I am now considering selling it and wondered where's the best place to sell such an item? Many thanks for any ideas.

Hi Maxsteel, why not try selling on eBay or Gumtree.

Aren’t these just going to be bootlegs though? Stuff that has been on YouTube in the past?

Thank you both. No, there is a lot of original material on these that I have never seen or heard elsewhere. Acappella mixes or mixes with vocals much louder, instrumental mixes or all the instrumentation being turned right down during a rough mix to expose just the vocal tracks. eBay will not allow them because they are not official. I will look at Gumtree and thank you for the suggestions!

Maxisteel, I love buying and collecting rare ABBA memorabilia. Would you mind confirming the full tracklist from the discs. I am interested. How much are you willing to sell them for ?

Two rough mixes of Dancing Queen including the unreleased verse as a complete mix. There are demos of just vocal tracks of Voulez-Vous, The Winner Takes It All, Chiquitita and Under Attack. You can hear the multi-track master tapes being lined up before the demo mix begins on some of them. A loads more.
