I'd be interested to find out from anyone that knows why the Stiff Upper Lip LP is so hard to come by. I've never seen one for sale in a record store here in Australia (either new or second hand) - perhaps they were sold in 2000 new but I was living overseas at the time. Does anyone know how many were produced? A guy who runs a fairly extensive second hand record/CD store here said that both the Ballbreaker and Stiff Upper Lip LP's were only available in Australia as an import. That would certainly explain their rarity. One sold on ebay yesterday for US$154. By the way, a new/sealed Ballbreaker LP sold for an unbelievable US$232 yesterday as well. If anyone has a Stiff Upper Lip LP that they want to sell or trade, please contact me.

Depends on what part of Australia you are located you could try Utopia records in Sydney or they could put you onto to some who sells secondhand records , myself i got it on cassette but i had to get my dad to get it from the united kingdom it would be interesting to get a copy of Black Ice on cassette ...

I'm located in Adelaide. Thanks for the suggestion regarding Utopia. I checked out their website, which was quite good - they have some AC/DC stuff, but only one LP (Fly on the Wall) available. There are a few good second hand CD/vinyl stores here in Adelaide, and I've put my requests down at one of them, so see how he goes sourcing it for me - but I wouldn't hold my breath.
