"has a top out, but well repaired,a slight bend at a corner of the lower right". How does that qualify as EX for a cover. First off, what does "top out" mean? I guess a seam split? If you have to repair the cover before you sell it, sorry, it's not excellent, it's like saying "two songs skip but at least you can listen to the other eight, EX+". That's the reason right there why I only buy either brand new or used off a select few people.

It's not only overpriced, it's a poor album, a 80s version of STRATOVARIUS-like Melodic Metal.
Only good thing is the sleeve.

I'd say it's even wimpier than that. 1 half-decent song, but generally your typical lightweight Scandinavian muso-HR. I guess it's sort of semi-rare, in the €50-league - outside of Sweden that is. Got a copy for trade if anyone dares to step forward and confess their pussyarsed taste in Metal

ok you all have a point, im not getting close to that anymore

If that's the seller I think it is, he's been trying to sell that thing for ages.

Hahahaha, The Legend demo..man, that's weak! I'll be very suprised if that sells!

[N.W.O.O.F.G.M.]

Perhaps he meant "cheap-ass demo quality bootleg" or something equal to that.

That legend demo is just sad, by the look of his profile he's making good money selling "demos", I'm going to watch that action just to see where it goes.
Anyone remember when this came out a few years ago, I saw it sell for $400 at one point

Also, according to the seller, this the demo tape of a black/death band.


Do your research man!

Wow, if that's the case it's the best black metal I ever heard!

This seller has been selling bootlegs for years, he's sold that Legend demo before aswell. And to top it off, he's a real asshole. Try telling him he's selling bootlegs and you'll get an agressive reply full of insults.
What's even more striking to me is his feedback score. He can't retaliate anymore yet people still give him positive feedback. Too dumb/stubborn/naive to admit they bought bootlegs?

[N.W.O.O.F.G.M.]

Perhaps I should contact him and tell him what I think about this "demo". You know, just for the fun of it.

[dford]

Maybe I'll write him and tell him it's a bootleg, just to get one of those nasty emails!
