No problem, you just have to dig 432 pound sterling for the sleeve and then maybe a couple of hundred € for the actual single

Thought it would go for even more than this. I have the vinyl in great condition but need the PS, but would never pay those amounts. Would give alot in trade though.. (Someone??

) This PS was probably only done in 20-50 copies at most.

Wow, in that case good luck to you finding one.

Strange habit to make only so few sleeves, couldn't be that ultra expensive to add a ps for every record you would think.

I think that Jim can sell almost every record for a bigger amount of money due to his status

Would love to have a sleeved sapphire, but obviously not cracked. He might pull ~$75 for the cracked record w/o the sleeve- someone paid that for a beat-to-hell copy of the Deuce single a few weeks ago, though I'll never know why. Someone needing a sleeve would pay a good amount for that, but for that price you'd be looking at a mint sleeve and cover

Re: Mayhem- Actually, Jim's auctions aren't going bonkers as regularly as they did 2 years ago. He still gets a few to spiral upwards, but many are ending at more reasonable prices. While the Mayhem may have went high, his MX went for $168; someone else sold a copy less than a month ago for $200

That is the first copy I've seen on ebay and as far as I know the last few copies to turn up was around 1997-1998.

It's quite good as well, solid power metal. I'm waiting for a nice litte parcel from Duluth, Georgia myself. Amazing to watch his offered items week after week, he just keeps them comin'.

I got my copy from eBay around this time (10-12 years ago) and it was $75 or something like that - back then, it was a lot of money too ... but when I see this, I can't complain anymore

I was also watching the Assailant and thinking the same thing

I've heard it and both songs are cool, but I had no idea it was that rare or pricey. There was a huge drop-off after the top two bidders; it went something like $587, $577, $105. And all 3 of those bids came in last-minute, so it's not like other bidders were scared away early. Thus, I'm not convinced it would sell that high on a regular basis. But heck, what do I know?

John has some more nice singles listed this week, but my money's pretty much spoken for this month. Just gotta get some paperwork processed at work.

Sgt- what are you getting from Georgia, if you don't mind me asking? Did you win some of the singles listed last week? There were some great ones listed in last week's batch

Only minor ones. Except one maybe, but i'll wait until i got them, maybe it brings bad luck posting stuff, that you don't physically hold in your hands yet. And after raiding the custom office of course!
