They've been selling for around 70/80 euro for years now. Relapse is reissueing it though so price might drop.

.
I remember this day.

I am trying to think of the crazies one but it's hard to choose

Maybe the 25 count box of Wizard Knight of Metal for $15 each
or the 25 Solar Eagle for $250 in trade, Neither of these came from the band

But I don't know over the years there has been thousands
of finds

Are those the only times those two records have shown up in quantity?

No,
In 1995 (I think) someone came up with about 3 boxes of Wizard. I only got 1 of them

In 1998 a friend in Canada had contact with Solar Eagle and was just getting copies as he needed for trade. I ended up with all that was left

I dont think many peopel relise how many copies of these things were floating around in the mid 90's. I mean Wizard was a $40-50 record then 10 years later it was 10x that price.

He might or at least knows where 5 copies are in town.

When we got the demos I few of your German friends came to town and the all left with 2-3 copies each.FREE

We had also purchased back then close to 5000 demos from KNAC
I think Jim kept maybe 100 and the rest we sold to Germany for 0.50 each
I wish we held on to them for another 2-3 years for ebay to start.

I think you would be surprised what people get for FREE or Very cheap when they see me in person.
