P.S. The same day i saw Maiden's First Ten Years Box, its price was 100 Euros (good price for it generally). However, i had the feeling that there was a nigger in the woodpile so i asked the guy: "Is it complete?" and he replied "No 3 vinyls are missing, if it was complete it would cost at least 300-400 Euros"...
hahaha where is this store? Next time I'm in Athens I have to see this place - even if I don't buy anything at least for a laugh.

Some nwobhm titles (sticking to items $500 and up). These are based on sales I've seen (ebay and otherwise) over the years. Glocknose or others may have more data to go on than I do. I haven't checked popsike (don't have time to right now). All prices in US$ for NM items w/ orig pic sleeves if they came with one. Some of these may be going for more/less nowadays.

Bollweevil 7" is consistently around $500
Skitzofrenik 'usa' 7" $500-600 (only seen 1-2 of these sell)
Lonewolf- cash for candy 7" $800 (only seen one sell and some people thought this was pretty high)
Shock treatment 7" $1000 (seen 2 sell for 4-figures)
Duchess 7" $500-600 (seen 1-2 sell for this)
High Treason $700-800 (seen two sell for this)
I've heard (unconfirmed) of the first 2 Venom LPs selling for $400-500 on certain colors of vinyl (purple and brown I think).
Hollow Ground 7" w/ pic sleeve can bring $450-500, but sometimes it's closer to $350
There are plenty that I suspect would sell for $500++ but I've never seen copies for sale, so I don't know.

The first things to come to mind were Tyrant (recently 700+) and Wild Pussy.

The guy relisted Wild Pussy without a reserve a few weeks ago. Some guy won it for $500 (Im pissed that it wasnt me!)

The Cracked Mirror has been listed 1-2 times lately and closed iaround $500.

Under the heading of 'reasonable ebay auctions', a copy of Wikkyd Vikkr sold for $118 earlier today, which seems pretty reasonable to me

Well, I just remembered my own top want that I've never seen for sale: the first Sabbat 7". A Japanese friend told me that about once a year a copy turns up in Japan and sells for $600-$700 (he told me that when dollar was still strong). Anybody ever saw one for sale?

Maybe Redeemer - The Light is Struck could also fit in the $500+ category?
