Yeah, that cover is pretty shot. The one listed last month had some cover damage, but not nearly that bad, and sold for about 350 GBP, so I don't think this one is gonna bring 700.
Best thing to do with a copy like this is find someone who has a nice cover but a beat-up record who'll pay a couple of hundred for a vinyl upgrade.

There was a pretty used Graven Image 12" up last month for a high price too- very worn cover and missing an insert for a BiN of $700. Nicer copies w/ both inserts have sold for $500. That copy was eventually taken down; someone may have worked out a trade for it.

Many folks forget to adjust price for condition (both buyers and sellers are guilty of that)

It's not metal but it is rare. $474 still too much!

As far as the last Invader's auction were for something like $80. Now $200+ because it was from a Japanese seller that's the only sure...

won by justbeensniped.

No, I was bidding as usual, hoping that people who can afford more wouldn't bid :D

Emperor.zola bought another Statue CD via buy-it-now few weeks ago for $150 and I thought that it was a very high price, although the CD is very rare indeed ... - last ebay auction last year ended at $50, Vordul sold his for $85 and another copy was available at gemm last year for $80 as well ... I was bidding on one Invader about a year ago and it was sold for $50 :D

I was going to post these auctions yesterday but forgot.

Who is this "n***s" with private feedback bidder?

The bastard won both of these over me.

At least I ran the price up nice and high for him :roll:

Screw paying over $200.00 a piece for these...
