It seems a fact of life on ebay now that anything listed as PRIVATE METAL will result in a massive scrum of people who are desperate to own everything and will pay whatever it takes. I realise it is a collecting passion for some people but it is just insane some times!
I have won a few of Jim's auctions but the most I ever paid was $50 for Trilogy - Next In Line LP which was roughly £25 at the time

He is not alone.....
He must have serious disposable income to pay nearly $700 for a 7" or is about $100,000 in debt!!

Quoted for truth.
By the way, i really liked that part of the uploaded Ablaze track, but 687$ for a 7" are not for everyone's budget. I don't know what kind of money does that guy who won earn, but judging from his bids he must earn A LOT.

I'm going to offer this to the loser of that auction in the bidding war and see how much profit I can make off of him.

Yeah, if it doesn't read "SONOPRESS" I'd think that it's a boot...
Odd, none the lass.

It is most likely a Columbia House Record Club pressing. No one is going to make a bootleg of such an easily available album. I had this problem with a Sabbat CD not long ago, and later found out that the DIDX matrix indicates it was pressed by Sony in Indiana, and they pressed most of the Columbia House discs. I have seen some Sepultura discs that are the same way.

Nice grab by the way.
