From 3$ open auction (4$ buy it now) to 30$, it's almost 10x times ... and in the very same days :P

Did you win it maybe ? AHAH

Nah, I've never even heard of it. Just $30 seems like a pretty meager price for anything these days (unfortunately :( ).

I remember when back in time (8-11 years ago) the most expensive cds were 30-40$ tops ...

With some exceptions of course (Angel Dust's, ADX, Apocrypha jap, Detente and Razor PK...) which would reach 200$ minimum

Hahahahahaha holy shit people really don't realize CDs didn't have those label strips on them in 1987 (and most didn't have them well into the 90s)?? Pure fucking retarded, a couple months ago you could have bought the same thing from CD Universe or Amazon for less than $10! What the hell?

Just curious, how to tell if it is a 1st pressing? I have the CD that without ifpi code... :roll: Bought it years ago but definitely not on the 1st day of its release :lol: .

The first pressing says Atlantic/Megaforce on the spine, the reissue just says Atlantic. And on the back the first pressing says megaforce worldwide.

Actually there are re-pressings with the same inserts.

The only real way to tell is from the Matrix itself.

My copy has only "Atlantic" on the spine and the back. No luck, I'd have known that. :(

Now we could discuss forever if it was crazy or a bargain ... he even did two bids to be sure to win it ^^

It was definitely pressed before 1995, but there is a general problem with the Atlantic or Elektra releases, they are difficult to put a timeline on. Same problem with Testament or Metal Church. But since the later presses are identical, who really cares?
