The Opeth Collector's Thread

[Requiem960]

I owned every Opeth album on vinyl at one point, but sold them all on eBay when they got so freakin' valuable. However, I did keep Damnation on vinyl as I got it signed by the entire band at an Orlando show a few years back. Man, Martin Lopez was in a pissy mood that night, too. I also have a really cool Orchid long sleeve shirt and I imported My Arms, Your Hearse from Europe when it released. When I met the band at their first Tampa show (BWP tour) Mike made a comment about it being the European version. I told him, you don't even want to know what I had to pay to get this album before Century Media got a hold of it and put logos over everything.

A few years ago I bought a Blackwater Park long sleeve shirt which was described as "European import". It has US tour dates on the back.

Aside from that I just have the CDs; Morningrise, Orchid, Still Life, and Ghost Reveries are reissued editions but the rest are normal US releases.

I have recently acquired that elusive BWP LP. Most happy.

Some of the duplicates of other rarities that I was holding back for possible trades are no longer needed (unless anyone has a Still Day test pressing that they are prepared to let go of?).

Anyone desperately after anything in particular, Opeth or related?

 

[annt]

I would love a still day/patterns vinyl to complete the discography on vinyl, I also have signed Aus 2003 tour poster. I've got a Ghost reveries and Deliverence poster as well and a GR flag, I'd love a proper full size print of all the album covers. I have a fare few bootlegs as well, both the 03-night 1 and 06- night 2 Melbourne bootlegs and i've found a fare bit on the net.

 

[stardrowned]

I have 3 Opeth bootlegs, 2 of them are in DVD quality, anyone interested in trading? I am mostly interested in trading In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, and At The Gates stuff.

 

[hellforge]

lamentations, ghost reveries (special edition), ghost reveries shirt, ghost reveries hoodie, opeth beanie, ghost reveries textile poster/flag.

 

[Stilgar]

I only have:

Orchid (European Original)
Morningrise (European Original)
My Arms Your Hearse (European Original)
Still Life (Digipack)
Blackwater Park (European Original)
Deliverance (European Original)
Damnation (European Original)
Lamentations (Digipack DVD)

And a T-shirt: Blackwater Park - original print.

So only the normal albums on CD and one DVD. I seldom buy special editions of an album if I already have the original, and I never buy an album simply for the reason of collecting it.

 

[Korlich]

^what about BWP SE? two cool songs IMO.

I've considered buying it a couple of times when I've seen it on Mellotronen, but decided against it both times. Possibly sometime in the future. I've heatd both extra tracks and I like them.

[Blackhorse_Experience]

Does anybody on here have original copies on cassette? They were only released in Poland I think.

My updated list is in the link in my sig.

 

[Gogsi]

Yep. I have the first three, BWP and Damnation on cassette (all 5 released in Poland).

Plus I have Deliverance and Ghost Reveries, too...
These are from Thailand so I'm pretty sure these last two are pirated... Although they are very nice...

[Blackhorse_Experience]

Where exactly did you get them? I haven't seen them on eBay. Would you be willing to sell any?

 

[Gogsi]

I bought the first three from a guy in Hungary. I saw his classified advartisement in the Hungarian Metal Hammer magazine 5 or 6 years ago... The Damnation and the BWP I bougth in an Opeth show in Budapest at the merchandising table (I think 2004 march)...
The Ghost Reveries and the Deliverance is actually Indonesian. I bought them on Ebay about a year ago...

Sorry, man! I'm a collector, so I don't want to sell any of these...
But... If I remember correctly I saw an Orchid cassette in Budapest in a record store about a month ago. I will see it again for you next time I will there. It costs ~2000 HUF (10 USD approx.)
Nice collection, dude!
Cheers!
