"Collector Porn" - CD (2013)

[Heathen]

I can bet Statue is the last copy thas was sold on eBay for < 400$.

[Helstar]

Nope. He didn't win it, I checked :V

[sovdat]

Winner = alwayssalo.

[Grimlord]

Statue = $110
Evil Sinner = $150
Aggressor = $80
Sixty Nine = 99 Euros
NSA = $50
Invocator = $7
Fatal Array = $150
Telepathy = $222 (before it went through the roof last time)
Impact = 220 Euro
Arakain = 20 Euro
LWS Inc. = $60

rest more or less standard ebay/internet prices

[Avenger]

I don't see what's so impressive about that picture. I think I own all of them except a couple which I don't find musically interesting but you don't see me posting picture after picture of all the highest priced rarities especially ones that he's already posted previously.

[Grimlord]

who cares, I don't have anything better to do and you should post pictures of them . nobody else has posted in this thread for months and this thread is called "collector's porn" for a reason.

Dude, it's not easy at all to have those instead ... also I like to see these photos full of rare/great/not great/whatever-tastes-you-have cds

Why don't you post something yourself ? More please ! (I'll post one later too)

[Avenger]

I just don't see the point in posting 3 different pictures including Silence - Vision for example. I get it, he owns a copy and paid $1000 USD to purchase it.

[Helstar]

Well, we can discuss for weeks or point fingers/laugh at him if you want, whatever ... 1000$ or 1$, makes no difference, at least for me (in the end, he is free to do what he wants with his money).

This is not the 'bargain' thread, but a 'post the photos of your cds' one.
And those are indeed very nice cds

[Heathen]

but in the end, 1000$ or 1$, makes no difference, at least for me (in the end, he is free to do what he wants with his money).

It does make a difference for me. Considerable difference. The fun factor is much greater when you get a rarity for 5, 10, or even 50% of it's price, then when you just throw a lot of money at it to make it your own. It's the same difference as between having sex with a pretty woman after only buying her a few drinks while your charm and "know-how" took care of the rest, and paying an expensive prostitute. In the end, you end up with the same, but the difference is clear.

It does make a difference for me

I was referring to the contest of THIS THREAD, which is about photos. We can argue as much as you want in "Insane ebay auctions" and/or "Bargain" for the rest.

[Avenger]

I agree with what Heathen said but I also agree that this is not the bargain thread. What I don't understand is the need to post pictures of the same items over and over again especially under the circumstances of over paying. This is also a general collector thread. It's not necessarily where you post entirely high priced rarities.

This is why I enjoy the vinyl version of this thread better and it's more active then this one. People post a blend of everything rather then the same guy posting a Warzwolf record 5 times.

[Helstar]

Well, ok I can see your point, he could have not included the "trio" in the photo, maybe, but since the rest was not posted at all and the other cds are so many, I guess we can forgive him (I don't really see it as something to forgive anyway)

[Helstar]

Time to post a new photo I want to try something on a different "level" (less hyped/known cds - maybe)



I guess it isn't really necessary for many of these bands, but I'll write a little description same way... if you are interested to hear the most obscure cds you can find some samples on YT (for example both Sabotage songs and a couple of Benevolence ones are there)

1st row
Accessory (selfreleased press not the WVR, different cover)
Asmodis (GER, great underrated thrash/death)
Blind Insanity (GER, weird MCD with 3 songs in totally different styles)
Desolation (BRA, very raw thrash like early Sep/Sarcofago etc.)

mid row
Disaster (CAN power/thrash, bad singer and drums machine kinda ruins it)
Hardknocks 4 Way Split (feat. awesome Realm clones Benevolence, the other 3 bands don't even play metal)
Neophobia (AUS thrash, second cd released on Warhead Rec. - same Blathudah Eezee etc. label)
Overlord (GER, imho this is best thrash/death album on D&S, fail pressing with same Anguish cd barcode/cat.num.)

3rd row
Sabotage (SWE, terrific Black Sabbath cover band who made a couple of own songs and didn't fail at all !)
Tarrasque (UK thrash, could have been better without all those alternative/groovy/modern parts)
Tempestas (BRA, effective Death "Human" era clones)
Winter Bestowed (CAN, like early Dark Tranquillity played at 3x speed, crazy)

[Warepire]

I envy that Sabotage CD, also would not mind having the Blind Insanity CD or Hardknocks split-CD.
