I dont really collect rare stuff. The only rarish stuff i have is a real copy of The Thoughts From Which I Hide by Vehemence (1000 exist), and a bloodred bloodbath shirt (42 exist). Oh yeah, if someone wants to buy the latter, its in good condition though faded a bit, size medium, make me an offer.

 

[Cephalopod]

You beat me. I've got a bunch of Dream Theater collectible stuff and some autographed stuff from various bands, including a drum head signed by Mike Portnoy. But my favorite piece of magical metal memorabilia is a 2003 Symphony X tour poster that was signed by all of the band (minus Jason Rullo, who was in the shower or something) when I met them after a show in Omaha.

Wasn't all that impressed with your initial list, then I saw this and literally said.. "HOLY FUCKING SHIT!". How did you score those? That's fucking awesome...

 

[MajestikMøøse]

It's because he gives good head.

knowing the right person and money

 

[Metal head87]

All I have is the audio tape I used to interview Ashmedi from Melechesh (not sure where that is now though), some autographed stuff from Icarus Witch and a guitar pick from Archaon from 1349.

 

[Lunar Still]

Nothing really impressive.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

I had a couple distorted mind picks but i lost them.

 

[Will Bozarth]

oh, those will be worth something... if you melted them and formed them into a cure for cancer.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

Probably nobody gives a shit, but I have the following excessively rare or personally unique items in my collection:

Agalloch - Pale Folklore (Wooden Box DLP)
Agalloch - Of Stone, Wind, and Pillor CD (rare, considering how much it's gone for on eBay recently)
Agalloch - Tomorrow Will Never Come (7")
Agalloch - Ashes Against The Grain (Wooden Box CD Edition)

then the rest of their albums on vinyl, as well as the regular CD editions, but those aren't quite as special as the aforelisted items.

Allerseelen - Gotos = Kalanda (CD - now deleted from their catalogue)
Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss (1st Print in Jewel Case)

Probably about half of my Death In June collection, most of which is currently out of print

Drudkh - Forgotten Legends (LP)
My complete collection of Hate Forest 7" vinyls
Katatonia - Brave Murder Day (Purple LP)
Katatonia - Brave Murder Day (Picture LP)
Kirlian Camera - Solaris: The Last Corridor (Limited 2CD edition)
A bunch of Sol Invictus items that are long out of print by now.
Waldteufel - Heimliches Deutschland DLP (signed by Markus Wolff and addressed specifically to me)

yeah. nothing really impressive to see here.

 

[Will Bozarth]

stuff we can pronounce and recognize, though

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

how the hell did you get a first print of Hvis Lyset Tar Oss, and how much did it cost you?

 

[MajestikMøøse]

some guy was selling it on a board I frequent, 19 bucks. he didn't realize that it could go for much more.

[MajestikMøøse]

mind you, all this vinyl I have: I actually listen to it. Even if the collection packaging is pretty and stuff. I'm pretty much against people who buy collector's vinyl just for the sake of having collector's vinyl and not actually intending to listen to it.
