Just picked up a copy cheap on ebay,double vinyl,white labels on the records,completely plain.Is it worth keeping,or should I try and resell it for a profit?

When I say cheap,I paid ten pounds for it,in a package that also included The Reptile House and a non gatefold First and Last and Always.

Return To Arkham is not rare. Halloween In Arkham is more rare/expensive:

@Return To Arkham is not rare.

You're right Paul, but I think it recently went for around €60 on Ebay nonetheless :wink:

I noticed, prices varied from €50,- to €150, over the past few years.

I live in Bolton and there is only one record shop that sells Sisters vinyl, 'X Records', and they have a copy in at the moment for £25. I got mine in Manchester 'Vinyl Exchange' for £25 a few months ago too
I don't doubt and I don't take direction....

Talking about spares, please take in mind that the 2lp exists in 3 different versions with blue, pink and white labels :wink:

However, as there's no difference otherwise, maybe I'm too specific here :innocent:

That's approx. the same as I paid for my former copy, which I sold when I decided not to collect bootlegs from this era.
