This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available.
99% of the time this means that it was sold outside of ebay. But I'm sure you already knew that :wink:

Yes, this was my guess ... but I'm just wondering what's the "going rate" for this album nowadays.

But since all auctions seem to end early, no price tag is known... :?

There is so many things wrong with this auction I will be surprised if it sells.

First the starting price is ridiculous, the seller will only ship within the US and it has massive disgusting writing and signature on the cover.

I really shake my head when people think that a signature increases the value of Metal records. We aren't talking The Beatles or Led Zeppelin here. We are talking about an obscure Metal band with a very different fan/collector base. Not to mention the artwork is now ruined.

I would also really like to know how the fuck this "james spence" guy verified the signature. Again this is not a band where there are tons of autographs to run a comparison basis from. Plus this guy has a whole back log of bullshit behind his shady business and is/was at one point under FBI investigation. I'm not sure if he is even still in business any more.

He also had Elixir "The Son of Odin" which quite amazingly ended way over 200 USD, surely a new record for that album.

I wanted to bid on his Coven and Inner Sanctum LP's but they became too expensive.

I didn't think somebody would get so much for so many LP's auctioned at once and so close to christmas. Shill bidding, luck, lot of attention because of the amount of different items, rich big shot collectors spending their fat Christmas bonuses on records, I don't know which, but it was crazy.
