That seems high for a Mint copy, and this one was water damaged. Maybe I'm wrong in thinking this shouldn't be topping $100, or maybe other people don't mind water damage very much; personally I hate water damage and consider it major damage

All copies circulation around now were sourced from me (unless dealers from the homestate of CT offer a copy here and there, I've seen that on ebay) since I tracked this band about 10 years ago. I was surprised at Jim's description it said water damage since none of the copies i traded had water damage (I never sold a single copy of this record,only traded!) so what he is describing as H2O damage is most likely some foxing combined with the fact that every copy was shrinkwrapped and I opened them all to sift out the warped copies. I guess it is possible the seller got it wet but this is highly unlikely.

So, that makes it about $40 per song.

Check out the bids - the buyer didn't want anyone else to have it.

This seems high considering the label damage. Not sure what a reasonable price would be for a Nice copy, so maybe a damaged copy really is worth this much...? Killer A-side!

Indeed. I was considering bidding on this, but the damage and high price put me off.

Interesting, I didn't know that. I got mine from someone in CT who had found a few copies at a local store. All of them were sealed and as far as I know none were damaged. Incidentally, I paid less than $30 for mine so yes I'd say that price was high regardless of condition!

This seller also has an auction for the Invasion re-issue.
