I wanna come visit next year, damnit!

What better way to resurrect this thread than by posting this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/236558940112

Did you already get your package? Mine's been stuck in Germany since January 5th and hasn't moved one inch.

Hey! Stop using... facts, and stuff. Don't you know we live in a post truth world?

Over 1000 owners = quite common in my book.

Hmm, I checked sold Sodom - Persecution Mania items on German eBay and the most expensive one from a German seller sold in December for 161€. Perhaps I just can't find it. Do you have a link to the auction? Another one I can't figure out is Rust In Peace by Megadeth. A quite common record, but origi...

Phew, I'm glad I have that Persecution Mania already. Didn't have to pay much for it either. :twisted: You're probably on to something with that "suggested price" algorithm. Of course Discogs want to inflate prices little by little all the time. The higher an item sells for, the more reven...

Perhaps I should rephrase: metal collecting is still fun. Vinyl record collecting sure isn't. I have no problem with a Sodom record listed at €137 if that's the current median price, i.e. what folks are willing to pay for it. What I do have a problem with is all these sellers asking prices that no s...

The point of the book isn't to list in demand items, the point is to be as extensive as humanly possible. Many of the 45s in the book will be quite bad, frankly.

Hence the need to also consult a certain little review project on this very site.

But eeeevery now and then it seems there’s still some cool scores to be found, even in this day n age Perhaps, but there's a limit on how much time collectors are willing to invest in order to score a few d...

This is a very interesting subject that I think deserves its own topic, so split from the Recent Metal Finds thread... /aDmiNistructor I guess discogs took almost all the fun away...People are nuts... I totally agree. Presently, I have close to 10.000 items for sale on my want list on Discogs. 99.9...

Find a Break Out Sample Lp on a Street Market for 10€. With Great Germany Bands Like Necronomicon,Xandril. That's very odd, considering both Discogs and Metal Archives claim the only vinyl compilation Xandril appeared on is the Teutonic Invasion Part One LP. I suppose you're referring to the Break ...

Nonsense, Loose ’N Lethal is one of the top 10 best metal albums ever made.

Bah, I've been looking for a copy for a long time. Now it's suddenly a lot harder.

The only reason I use FB/IG is to keep in touch with other record collectors. So two big thumbs up from me.
