This may be one helluva rare LP, but still.... that's a LOT of money.

Yeah, I missed that one upon release. It actually was the last Sabbat release I missed, I've got everything they have released since then. And I've been looking for Live batan-Q for 6 years now...

Don't you have the normal version? I got that from Gezol about two years ago for 50 dollars. Pretty cheap if you consider how rare it is, and that when it's on ebay it sells for at least three times as much.

No, I don't have the regular version. I should really check what Gezol still has left. Half a year ago I got a killer Envenometal with special sleeve from him, but I didn't bother to ask what else he still had.

Wow, ensiferum2k7, one year ago pricekillers' prices for the few he sold were cca $40 :D Not to mention that I got mine in a trade, which would, speaking in money, cost me about $5 :D

I guess you should look out for waverlyrecords that is selling two copies of Traitor's Gate EP with the exact same picture on both of them

He's trustworthy I've bought from him before...

If you notice in the auction he notes the covers are photocopied.

Man, that's sick. What's his deal (bidderwars)? He sells almost all his stuff and then re-buys it for WAY more? Doesn't make much sense to me...

Just wait a few weeks and it will be re-listed for sale under thallos81, for a lot more!! :evil:
One thing I don't understand about this situation... If thallos81 is randomcoils, you'd think he'd have an idea of what things typically sell for. If this is the case, why would randomcoils spend $57 on a Combat Venom Welcome To Hell CD? That's a $20 tops CD usually, there's no way he could profit off it. I've seen randomcoils spend crazy money on lots of stuff, where there was no way he could possibly turn a profit. Plus thallos81has bought CDs from me before (under the thallos81 user ID, which I did see him resell for a lot more). Something just doesn't add up.

About thallos81: I believe that he simply tries to make an impact that he has all kinds of stuff for sale, and apparently he doesn't have the opportunity to get his stuff in local used stores like many Jap. re-sellers, so he collects it on ebay :) I don't mind (although he outbided me on few CDs, like org. Bonded by Blood in very last seconds), but he also put a bunch of bids on my items so they sold for a lot more.

And about bidderwars, I believe that he was selling off his private collection due to the bills, but he's now apparently feeling sorry for it or something so he's just desperate to get the stuff back ASAP. :D He paid $115 or so for Agony too ...

And, finally, about that Assorted Heap 2nd CD - that one's quite common on German metal markets, 12 eur at max :D (But I never cared enough to get it by now ...). Same with Osiris CD, which went for over $90 once and is usually quite pricey - found 3 on Bang Your Head festival 2008 alone, 3€, 8€ and 8.5€ :D (But I purchased only the cheapest heh ... )

HOLY SHIT, this is defiantly the winner for most outrageous over-pricing that I've ever seen. I got my copy for $22.00........

This is outrageous, you can still get this album from Steamhammer. It's not deleted:
