Last legend I saw went for $500. Why has the price come down from the $1,000 mark? I have to be honest- that album bores me to tears. i sold my reissue vinyl copy a few years ago.
The savatage on blue vinyl has sold for as much as $750, but I think it 'normally' sells for more like $400-ish. I can't say for sure but that $750 auction seemed like a one-yime fluke/bid war.
Anyone care to fill us in on Emerald City or Wheelz of Steel?

What about Lord Ryur 7" (I know that they're from Canada)? As I do understand only 100 copies were pressed ...
Not a vinyl, but one guy told that he recently sold his original FEMS CD copy of Chastain - Ruler of the Wasteland (I guess with OBI) on Gemm for $575 ... And CDs like Sanctum (100 copies) or Crillson (200 copies) could also reach $250 and more ..

Indeed worth every penny, bought it for $200 last year and WILL NEVER REGRET this purchase. I even like it more then my Heathens Rage 12" and that one is already priceless in my bookMassOfKthulu wrote:Lord Ryur slays!!!! best private seveninch ever as far as im concerned,blows the strychnine/myth/minotaur/destroyer competition to hell and back,any suggestions of a better US/CA seveninch?
worth every fucking penny even if you buy it for 300 dollars plus
Long Live The Loud !!!

Let's avoid the hard rock releases, or at least start a separate thread for them
OK, so assuming everyone's quoted prices are accurate, the list so far, going from most to least expensive (stopping around the $500 mark) looks something like this: (prices in US$)
militia 3000
paradoxx 1500-1800
avatar on yellow vinyl 1500
graven image 1200
leather nunn 1200
iron cross 1000-2000
liquid earth 1000+
solar eagle 1000 (based on 1 auction, technically canadian)
messiah 700-800
Wyzard 500-1000 (most copies seem to sell in the 750-1000 range)
image 675
Hammeron 500-600
Street Child 500+
Legend 500 (hard rock, but was specifically asked about)
Savatage blue vinyl 400-500
Crowhaven 350-500
Others that were mentioned so far:
Sabre 200-225 (1 copy did bring 550, but the other two I found info for sold in the given range)
Slaughter Xtroyes no info avaiable
Mesmerist 270 (based on 1 auction)
Ion Britton 150-300
Amethyst no info available
Dark Knight 50-100
Salems Wych 200-300
Very interesting thread! Perhaps spin-off threads for hard rock, non-US metal, and nwobhm would also be useful/interesting?

Lord Ryür deserves all the glory they can get.Surely one of the very best metal singles ever!But i have seen there is only the vynil,no cover no sheet.How can we are sure that this band was Canadian?MassOfKthulu wrote:Lord Ryur slays!!!! best private seveninch ever as far as im concerned,blows the strychnine/myth/minotaur/destroyer competition to hell and back,any suggestions of a better US/CA seveninch?

How did you come up with these prices? Popsike?nightsblood wrote:Let's avoid the hard rock releases, or at least start a separate thread for them

These seem to just be guesses and ebay sales that were listed on Popsike(which are NOT all the sales made on ebay)
To me it is better to leave things as (+) which would just give it a higher range.
For the reason of:
militia 3000 (I have sould 2 copies for a LOT more then this)
paradoxx 1500-1800 (I have sold and have seen copies sell for a LOT more then this)
avatar on yellow vinyl 1500 (I have sold 3 for a lot more then this)
graven image 1200 (Very close)
leather nunn 1200 (Way too high more like 500-700)
iron cross 1000-2000 (ok)
liquid earth 1000+ (+)
solar eagle 1000 (based on 1 auction, technically canadian) (This is close)
messiah - 700-800 (going insane only)
Wyzard 500-1000 (most copies seem to sell in the 750-1000 range)
image 675 (This was a high most are in the 300 range)
Hammeron 500-600
Street Child 500+ again (+)
Legend 500 (hard rock, but was specifically asked about)
Savatage blue vinyl 400-500 (I would say higher for realy clean copies)
Crowhaven 350-500 (ok)
