Here's one you don't see too often!

In fact the only other time I've seen the Metal Mercenaries tape for sale, I bought it. (Paid more for mine too...)

This is one of the select few tape format albums that I would still consider buying.

Insane price for the Warlord :shock: :shock:

Just can't see paying that much for Militia- there are rarer and better metal albums out there that don't sell for 1/4 the price of this one. Oh well, to each his own

The same guy who bid a lot on the LIQUID EARTH album and later retracted all his bids is bidding on this one too. I suspect a bit of foul play...

The guy is from Brazil.
And I have no idea who he is.
His ebay profile shows a Pic of him with a copy of Leather Nunn
His deal with LE was he asked me if he could pay in Nov. and I said
I would not wait that long, then he retracted his bid.

His ebay Name = gregory_resistances

He has 14 bid retractions over the last 6 months, so you're not the only one affected.

Bid first, ask questions later, it seems. :?

At first I thought it was a bogus account used to take a sneak peek at the maximum bid (which is easy, bid a LOT on a record, watch the maximum bid of the second highest bidder, retract, and then use some other account to overbid it, or fold if the maximum bid was too high)

14 in 6 months? Ridiculous. Any account w/ half that amount should be closed by ebay. No excuse for that crap

I guess this one will go for probably 600-1000 dollars.
When moments like this comes up, I'm nothing but glad to already have this great piece of NWOBHM history!

The original should be white, yes. But I don't think anobody really cares about that, but who knows?

Hmm.. Here we go again.. The condiiton is great, it has the insert and my guess is 5-7000 dollars.

And from the same seller:
