I was looking for a double of this 12" on eBay and happened to come across a copy http://cgi.ebay.com/HIP-HOP-record-JAMAL-FADES-EM-ALL-pete-rock-remix_W0QQitemZ4750341857QQcategoryZ306QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem but it already sold...for 86 dollars. WTF. Is this foreal or just eBay madness.

I've seen this many times for $3-8. The non-remix version of the 12" has the same picture except it's brown instead of blue. It's not even that good, even more boring than the album version IMHO. Only essential stuff IMO is the other 12" (w/ the dope Erick Sermon piano beat) and maybe the 2LP with that nice Redman collabo.
seriously?? I thought interest in all but the promo-only shit had pretty much died out...
It only takes two nutjobs to push a Jamal 12" up to $86 on eBay; it takes interest on the part of a much larger group of people for a producer to demand serious money for his work. Nothing too complicated about that.
but still.
look at all the "fading" producers from the 90's. They got a good rep but still rappers don't buy their beats anyway. It's just funny to me. No theory behind it tho'...i was talking loud and saying nothing.
They have a "good rep" amongst the sorts of people that post on SoulStrut, but that's a tiny subset of the music-buying population.
Amongst the general population they have no rep at all.
That is a dope remix... I like both versions... but $86? woah.
ok you won...
