NWOBHM mid-rarity stuff (7"s & LP's for that matter) are in a slump. It's really obvious too seeing it on ebay & even at recordfairs. So now is the time to catch up on certain items you haven't got for a decent price. Early death & black metal (on vinyl & cd) is going nuts though..even at recordfairs, the prices have gone up more 50% from last year.

Not an unreasonable price for it...but the postage seems a tad steep. I think the default must be set on 'Mir Space Station'.

Whoever got it boned the seller hard and got it for $100.

How do you know the price was $100? And is it worth a lot more?

I asked the seller and it is worth what you can get it for I guess. This is the first copy on ebay in the last 10 years.

Crazy!

Someone have mp3s of this single? Never heard this one before and would love to hear it. I recognize the band name, can't be other than great with those titles either!

So pretty much a good time for anyone who wants black/death stuff to stop buying that, invest in kbd-esque nwobhm rarities, then when the market switches back sell them at top dollar and buy all these big time black/death records for peanuts in comparison. :wink:

Re: Real Steel- lesson for sellers, QUIT ENDING YOUR GODDAMN AUCTIONS EARLY DUMBASSES! If someone is desperately offering you $X to close the item right away, it means the buyer is afraid that it'll sell for > $X if the auction continues to run! Gee, maybe you should let it run! How smart do you have to be to work that out?

And yet sellers are ending auctions early more and more often. Pisses me off :evil: Someone closed an auction I was interested in this morning, after I had contacted him and he assured me he would NOT close the auction early. Thus, I was waiting to bid until closer to the close of the auction. What, my larger amount of money isn't as good as someone's offer who emails you pleading for a chance to circumvent the auction competition? I know politicians with more financial sense than that!

Congrats Sellers, you pulled one over on ebay and avoided paying a few bucks for the closing fee, and all it cost you was several hundred dollars of profit. Brilliant.

:evil: :evil: :evil:

Honesty uber alles... One seller told me that he has nothing from my want list & also wished me good luck. Then, 2 days later he putted the cd he had of my want list on ebay... :lol:
