I know about this seller for quite some time now. The prices he demands are outrageous. You would think the CD is accompanied by the a small body part of one of the band's members - here's your chance to clone your own James Schumacher!

However, I seriously do not want to believe that there are actually people willing to pay that amount of money on e-bey, using onle the buy it now option. According to this seller's completed listings, it seem that there are not - thankfully.

Also, on warzwolf: Witchhammer - 1487 CD (the offcial reissue, apparently)


The original vinyl cost me less.

I have serious doubts as to whether warzwolf really sells those items, or if they're shill auctions so he can fool someone into bidding a lot when he re-lists the item later on.

we americans are terrible at american geography, so yeah, forget it when it comes to Europe or other places. In high school one of the social studies teachers thought the phillipines were in the caribbean :lol:

Insane prices on ebay is one thing, quite another is outrageous prices asked by some dealers. I found a Mistreater - Hell's Fire LP yesterday and the seller wanted €400 for it!!!

Man, what a price for that Sabbat box. Most people have lost their minds judging those auctions.

That doesn't seem so nuts. Usually, a mint copy of that will cost you atleast 300€ now.

Do you know who did it? If I'm not mistaken the last privately sold went for a little more than that ...

That's the same guy that paid $202.00 for that L.W.S. CD that we were talking about a few weeks back.


Oh, and I've seen Silence on a few lists in the past for around $200.00.

What did you pay for yours Sovdat?

Oh yeah, Rene ... :D I'm not surpised at the price then ;)

I paid $60 for mine. I was bidding on one a year or two ago that was sold for about $150 to gioyle ... I was also bidding on one Entropy at the time that was sold for $90 :D I don't think that I'll dare to bid up these days, probably it will also go for a truly insane price like the rest of rare old thrash CDs nowadays ;)

^^ That actually seems pretty damn low doesn't it? I thought this was crazy rare even in Japan?
