The remaining Secret 7" singles are up for auction on the Teenage Cancer Trust ebay page. The auctions will run for 1 week.

From @Secret7s - "Brush up on your interpretation skills tonight, the remaining sleeves will go live on the eBay page tomorrow from 5pm. There will be over a hundred 7'' - including records from all our 7 hosts - starting at just a penny!"

Update (5-4-12): Congratulations to everyone who won a sleeve and  helped the Teenage Cancer Trust. From @Secret7s  - "Told by we just raised £9,605.97 on eBay!! That is incredible. Thank you all."

Also, the Robert Smith sleeve should be re-listed soon, and they still have the Robert signed test pressings auction coming soon.

  7. There won't be any extra Robert designed sleeves, just the 5 or so test pressings that he's signing. I'm guessing they will go up after the current auction ends.

    Not sure when the Robert designed sleeve will be re-listed for auction. Will try to get an answer.

    1. Craig do you know or do you have any clue which one of those ones that are up for auction in the moment represent the FIIL song ?
      As i do really want to own a piece (exceptNo. 561 which obvious is)

  8. I wish I knew! :) I am the worst at figuring it out. I know if it has a heart on it, there's at least a 50% chance it's a Friday. : )

    Also was told to look for anything that has 7 segments or images to it, as that's a good clue, too.

    But I'm betting there are some on there that none of us would guess were for The Cure.
