Yeah, I would certainly consider any original demo a collectible!!
I remember many years ago Dennis from Sentinel Steel was selling the Rhapsody demo for $100. He also had Iced Earth's Enter The Realm demo for $100. I kind of wish I bought the IE.

Nice...
I must have sold it on a forum.
I remember making something like $30 on it.
At the time they were still pretty unknown.
I still have the MP3s. Great album.

I got the Salem's Law LP for only like $20. The next week another copy on eBay went for $40. I was glad the people bidding on that one missed my copy!
I'd still like to have it on CD, but that goes for around $100 when it shows up.

Hahaha, pate is right, it gets its own shelf in my collection. It took about 3 or 4 years for me to stumble across a copy (in Springfield, IL of all places). Same place I got the S/T Hour of 13 at, actually (thanks to pate's keen eye for CDs). I paid $4 for the used Hour of 13, and I think I paid $10 for the Cross Purposes Live set.

Definitely my favorite piece. I remember being so damn happy when I won the thing on Ebay for $80. Now? You can't even find it.

I've got that one too. I didn't know it was that rare.
I used to have the Gamma Ray box set, but I sold it a year or two ago. I got the original CDs instead because I like them better without the bonus tracks.

I think the only rare stuff I have is old cassettes that I still have from back in the 80's when I got them....hard to get stuff now like
- Doomsday News comp - Scanner, Voivod, Helloween, Kreator....
- original Vio-Lence - Eternal Nightmare cassette
CD wise....
Leprecauhn - demo ( singer for Elvenking side band)
Overlorde SR - just released but OOP since the lawsuit thing
I have lots of stuff with 1,000 pressed but that is almost trying to make it rare so I dont count that.

Don't you have some band issued limited CDR's from DEMON?
Those are probably rare, unless they simply keep releasing them

Amazon is the one releasing the Demon CDRs, and they can pretty much do that forever. I have all the Demon reissues on CD except for Breakout, and I'm not paying for a CDR of that.
It is odd...the Amazon pressings are amazing. Full booklets and quility disc. You couldnt not tell it was a burn on demand if you didnt know before you ordered. You are really missing out.

I've got that one too. I just listened to it again the other day. It rules! It's really weird that as soon as he returned to Elvenking he turned it into an emo band.
