This made me laugh:

Mithotyn

What the hell's going on here? 22 bids, all from the same guy? The first 21 bids were made in a span of about five minutes, then two days later, he bids again once more. Ha ha!

I love this paragraph from the seller's instructions:

3 . I can hold items for you which you won,but you must first pay. :lol:

Haha "I've paid for my item but it would really make me happy if you'd be able to hold it for a week or two before sending"

What the hell is wrong with the guy bidding on that?

I'm fine thanks I'll pass :wink:
Too bad the music is not as good as the cover. I had never seen the back cover before, it looks very creepy in black and white, i like it a lot

My guess: He has met the reserved price with one of his last bid. The other bids were below. However, I don't really understand the bidding history...

$250 for a t-shirt.. :shock:

Vintage-80s-DEATH-Leprosy-T-SHIRT-concert-tour-tee-XL

although that guy has some real gems in stock, insanity begins when someone actually buys at that rate.. my favorite among those he probably won't sell is this one:

Original-1999-RICKY-MARTIN-T-SHIRT-RARE

:lol: but who knows. maybe there's also a mad bunch of die-hard gay-latino-pop collectors out there..

Slayer and Death shirts look lovely. But the prices are stinky nuts

Isn't this very cheap? I went 'till 500 myself. That's like €350 or so. They used to go nearly $1000 and that was when the dollar euro was 1:1.

That's a fine price for this masterpiece. It usually goes for >1000$ not nearly this condition and without insert

There have been a few Graven Image Lp's turning up on Ebay recently so maybe the price is bottoming out?

My guess is that "crush" is the sound that piece of "metal" made when it hit that bidder in the head.

So the final price is $330. I must say that this is the only copy I saw offered (except for mine), and I don't know anyone beside Roco to own it either; so did anyone saw another one anywhere, and what was the price then? How many copies exist??

Also, was Balance of Power ever released on a CD?? I bought Darkened Reality from Michael Davies (Samurai) , and later on he said that he found their 1st album on a CD, but he couldn't provide any pictures (he said it would take to much time ?!?!), and a friend of mine bought it from him and the last thing I've heard from him that he needs Mike's email address because the guy never sent the stuff ?!? ...

I traded my copy about 2 years ago. I got it at a small local CD shop that's now long gone for next to nothing. I've never been a fan of this band so it's not really that big of a loss for me. I bought it knowing that it was trade material, although, I didn't know that it would fetch THIS PRICE. Now that I think back on what I traded for it, I still profited either way...
