Hi folks,

I have a question to the above: there is the regular edition numbered with printed cover and there two diferent versions with the cover printed on coloured paper (green and red) - I have seen here only the number 600/600.

So how many exist?

I know that from the Halloween in Arkham boot - here the cover was not ready, when the first records went out to the wholesalers.

Is this the same?

Here's what I know, or think I know...

Halloween In Arkham (live at Brixton Ace, 17/03/83 + Peel Session 19/06/84) edition of 500 issued in Germany in 1985 on Arche Noire Records ANR024 with 10 tracks (500 were pressed, but almost all seized by police and destroyed with the exception of about 30!).

Not heard of any having photocopy covers.

28/08/83) double lp with 17 tracks issued in 1985 in EEC, #SM0002/M003; limited edition of 600; variants inc.:
1/ multicoloured vinyl + white/black sleeve + blue insert

Is this the place I used to know as Fatherland?

This story belongs to Halloween's Day, not Halloween In Arkham ...

Thanks for the further clarification, Taylor.

I wonder, what his maximum bid was...

Does anyone know if this guy (colonionob) is a collector or a trader?

Hawell someone said that he is a collector. But I got overbid from him and a week or two later he sold the same item...

Just ask him... :lol: :lol:

I don't think he's a collector. If that was the case, we would have seen him before in one of the "Ebay battles". Me thinks he's a trader who noticed there's a Sisters bootleg hype going on and wants to sell this stuff for an even higher price. (like Mr Auflage said)

If he's buying to sell he must be really stupid considering he's active during most of the auction pushing the prices. You can't possibly hope to sell an item for an even higher price after outbidding everyone?

I can understand Cybervamps strategy, they just throw in a rather low bid and hope to get lucky, but this? Oh well, there is a lot of stuff I don't understand...
