That was the original link that was giving out and today mondo Tweeted an update with this linkNo problem at all man :) I wasn't that hooked on in anyway. The blood-filled F13 (which I'm happy to own and cherish) made more sense to me than this... yellow alien goo vinyl, or whatever it is :)

Not quite the same as buying something because you actually want it and then selling it sometime down the road to free up space or whatever. Most times for less than stuff cost new but sometimes for more.
But I also think if someone is gonna pay $700 for a novelty record (albeit a badass novelty record) then of course people are going to try to make a quick buck on it.

Here is the scene that started it all -- notice the color of the blood:
I will say that each successive sequel seems to "step-up" the green tinting in the blood.
