Apparently the BBTAD reissue has made the price of the original EP drop significantly..

I'd rather think the "low" price was because of that huge tear-off on front cover.

indeed looks crappy,my reissue looks way better

Yeah, the Street Child had some significant cover damage. Several copies have been offered for sale in recent years, so it's not like this was the first copy sighted in 4-5 years either.

Well, if I could afford for bidding on albums like this I wouldn`t care much about the cover being damaged.

Really? Well if you get some money let me know; I've got a wrecked car that I'd love to sell you for the same price as a new one

I was watching that auction and probably would have put in a $500 bid, but I forgot about it. : (

EPIC METAL FAIL

If the cover damage didn't bother one, it was a good chance to get a copy for about half the usual price. I've been picking up some other expensive records lately so I decided not to bid on this one- my BBTAD copy will do nicely.... for now

Maybe if one day I become rich enough to waste my money on Street Child, Warzwolf etc. I will think of your car as well
However, the the record itself looked fine and that the most important thing to me. And I don`t think the lucky winner is regreting the purchase.

I agree, that was a reasonable price for that copy. But I wouldn't pay 'full price' for a copy in that condition. For 'Full Price' you can get a copy in NM/NM, so why pay full price for a VG-/NM copy?

Granted, on Top Rarities, poor condition does not pull down the price as much as it does on a 'common' record. But I think I've seen 4 Street Child's (Street Children? ) in the past 2 years alone. So it's rare, but it's not Graf Spree rare or yellow Avatar rare or purple Black Hole rare. For those records, even if a copy isn't in top condition, people will still pay a lot for it b/c they know they probably won't see another copy for a few years. But with several Street Child copies recently offered and the nice reissue available, I don't see any reason to pay full price for a copy with that much cover damage.

And 'discount price' is relative- someone still paid over $400 for that copy even with a chunk of the cover torn off

No, that one's dirt cheap.

Apocalipsis is pretty much the only mega-expensive Discos Gas title as far as I know.

Crystal Y Acero - Kuman is worth about 25 dollars in EX condition.

This makes me feel a lot better about the retarded purchase I just made.

Some copies of the GHOST have been selling for closer to $500. They're the new trend, everyone hop on board! I've listened to several songs and personally I can't stand them; total 'gimmick' band IMO
