The San Diego-based top-rated seller 619andyp, who's also affiliated with Ebay store Extremely Rare Records, is auctioning a pack of four early Radiohead cassettes (going back to when the band was called On A Friday, then Shindig, and finally settling on the name Radiohead) with a "Buy It Now" price set at $49,999.99. Interested fans are welcome to make other offers, but so far 11 have been turned down.

The seller does not include tracklists, or any description other than the comment, "Greatest band in the world," but from the photo (see above), the collection looks to include an untitled 1991 demo, and the Manic Hedgehog demo, which include tracks "Stop Whispering," "I Can't," "Thinking About You" and "You," which later made it onto Radiohead's 1993 debut album, Pablo Honey.

He is also offering the 1991 demo and Manic Hedgehog separately for $14,999.99 each.
