I bought mine quite late so I didn't get an autographed one. It is not available on the main webstore that sold it. So you can only find it on Ebay now really...

Has there been any copies on eBay? Does anyone know how much they went for?

Actually, it is still available from the original vendor. And for dirt, dirt cheap. They made 1000 copies, which I'm guessing was way too many. So now they sell it for almost nothing: www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=15301Not autographed, but all are still new and sealed.

I thought it was on that site still but it is not where I linked to it initially... Thanks!

I thought it was gone forever too, cause searches always came up empty. Then one day I tried 'thesickcity' as one word, and that brought it up. No wonder it doesn't sell when that's about the only way to bring the CD up in searches... (:

Thanks a lot for that! I tried ordering it but I got an error message at check out. I've contacted the store about that and I'll see what happens. I'll let you know if I get a hold of the CD.

It's very sad that people have to go through that trouble to get that CD. It's really fucking good.

Well, here's what's happened with this. I tried ordering it but their payment system was out of order so I couldn't place an order. I contacted them and they said they were fixing it and would get back to me when that was done. Now all of a sudden they've closed down the whole business!
I sent an e-mail off to try to get some information on what they'll be doing with the rest of the Sick City copies. Hopefully I'll be able to get a hold of it anyway.

Wow...
MUSIC NON STOP LIMITED OFFICIAL STATEMENT
It is with great regret that we have to announce that after 9 years Music Non Stop has now officially stopped trading. Despite our never-ending efforts over the last 12 months, and a concentrated attempt to soldier-on in some form or another in the past weeks, it has regrettably come time to call it a day.
There are a number of factors that have resulted in this sad conclusion, some of which include the current exchange rates of the Euro and the dollar against the pound, the lack of consistent ‘big name’ releases in this scene, increase in distributor and day to day running costs, and other methods now available of obtaining new music, to name but a few. We have always tried to deliver the best for our customers and have always put them first from day one and set high standards for ourselves. We have also tried our best to push and promote smaller labels and bands to try and help them get more exposure. We hope that in the time that we have been trading we have provided a service most people have been very happy with and we are just sorry that we are unable to continue. As a result we sadly have to report that all outstanding orders have had to be cancelled as we are unable to fulfil them. We apologise for the inconvenience that this will cause. Unfortunately we are unable to answer any emails on an individual basis. Paypal customers please contact Paypal with regards to a refund.
Finally - and this is the most important bit - we would like to thank ALL of the real music fans and customers that have supported MNS over the past 9 years (WE and YOU know who you are ), The labels ( especially Out Of Line & Trisol ), The Distributors ( especially Audioglobe ) and the friends ( especially the Infest crew and Bernard and everyone at Side-Line ). You are the people that have kept this scene alive and will continue to do so.
Thank you and we wish you all the best. MNS

Indeed!
It would be really sad for me if I can't get ahold of a copy now and I missed it by a few days just because their payment function was out of order.
