Complete collection for sale!

 

This is a relisting due to a disagreement between ebay and myself about Paypal, so I removed Paypal payment this time round, apologies if you wished to pay with Paypal. Apart from that, this relisting is identical to the previous one. Again, apologies for the inconvenience. This time the auction is for 7 days. We're starting where we left off pricewise.

 

First of all, let's start with the daddy of the collection (although you'll find there is tons of very rare stuff here) Maiden Mania Greek Box Set.

 

Complete, all 5 records are unplayed, I can guarantee this since I personally bought it when it came out and it’s not left me since.

This is the genuine and official article, and again, no records were played or replaced, this is the complete original set in mint condition. You won’t find this anywhere.

 

Included in the boxset you have:

1- Women in uniform - Invasion - Phantom of the opera

2 - Running free - Remember tomorrow - Killers - Innocent exile

3 - Aces high - King of twilight - Live version - The number of the beast

4 - Run to the hills - Phantom of the opera - Losfer words (big 'Orra)

5 - Wasted years - Reach out - Sheriff of Huddersfield

 

This item is very rare, I bought this one in France the day it came out. I believe from the conversation I had with the shop keeper at the time that only 2000 were made and only 20 were made available to France, all were sold within minutes.

Even that sort of information is hard to come by, EMI Greece specialises in ultra-rare pressings and doesn’t publicise or publish information about those releases. Even specialist websites don’t have this much information about this boxset.

 

I have top feedback and do please bid with confidence.

 

You can come and collect the item and pay cash if you wish, this is what I would prefer. Also you can pay by chque or postal order if you are outside of the UK. Items sent when payment cleared.

 

This collection is all from my younger days, I don’t buy and sell records for a living and trust me, those records have been very very well looked after.

 

I have many other Maiden rarities, my whole collection has to go, you will find a good few gems like this. I think you will be amazed. Some items have never been played and are still wrapped, how obsessive is that?

 

If you were interested in viewing the items, we could arrange you to visit me and look through it all.

All records are in great condition, only thing to report is that

The evil that men do/Prowler '88/Charlotte the Harlot '88 12" is missing the poster that came with it. And the cover for Piece of mind needs a bit of glue, but no tears! That's all !!!

 

The LPs have been played, everything else, not much or not at all.

 

I know you'll be after pictures, so check this link out, I’ve made you a little compilation:

http://www.nepalesetrails.com/IronMaiden/index.htm

 

and if you need more detailed pictures, email me, all pictures are pictures of the actual items, not pictures taken from elsewhere.

 

I have set a reserve on this, as it's a comprehensive collection that took me all my youth to gather I'm not prepared to let it go for peanuts, that said, the price is fair, so you might not get a stupid bargain, but you get very collectable stuff and you're not overcharged. Fairness is the key here, I'll be sad to see this huge slice of my life go but I think I have to let go at some point, and this point is now.

 

Personally I’d much rather you came to collect this lovely bundle, would save you a lot in postage and insurance (haven’t even worked the postage out yet), the whole thing is very heavy (no pun intended).
