Is this really a $418 7"???

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CAMARGUE-Howl-of- ... 240%3A1318

Winterkill ended up at $471.33 - maybe less than most people imagined??

Reasonable price for the S Xstroyes. Congrats on winning it

That Camargue single varies a lot in price. It has brought a few hundred dollars in the past, but not always; it sold last month in comparable condition for about $100. It is quite rare but musically it's very weak IMO. Notice that only 2 of the 9 bidders crossed the $200 line; the top 2 bidders wanted it pretty bad to pay that much, or they have money to burn.

nightsblood, imho, this is an insane price for Camargue...5 years ago its price was veery low though...I don't know, I would never give such an amount for this...by the way my second try to get Winter Kill was more lucky and fruitful, but now I have to have a second copy, so I'll search for it again...hoh! :shock:

Agreed; they paid an awful lot for it, but I have seen it sell for $200-300 on at least 1 other occasion (I don't remember the exact amount, sorry). I wouldn't even want it in my collection :)

CAMARGUE IMO is crap. But i'd happily buy for 3$ for my NWOBHM collection.

I just collect albums I like, and since I agree w/ you that it's crap, I don't want it at all :lol: If it were dirt cheap I'd buy a copy to use as a trade item since some people do value it quite highly.

Sorry, but I would never buy a record, even for 1$, if I don't like it, just because of my collection...that never worked for me...I wouldn't even accept it for free btw...!

$3 is not a lot of money. There are not many things that cost less than that these days. I really wouldn't mind adding it to my collection if that was its price...
