Crazy Collection of Over 700 Metal Vinyl LPs I Bought From Texas

This video highlights a collection of heavy metal vinyl I bought from a guy in Texas.

90% of the records in this collection are newer reissues in NM/NM, about 70% came sealed, and the remaining 10% consisted of vintage pressings from the 1980s. A full list of everything included is in the spreadsheet embedded below.

The seller did a decent job packing the records for shipping, but not perfect. He used the box-in-box method, but he did not use enough packing materials, which caused some corner beads. Many albums were downgraded to “sealed but NM” due to the damage to the jackets.

The Highlights

While most of my readers and YouTube viewers get much more excited about some of the mega-rare vintage collections I buy, many rare/expensive albums are in the collection, mostly due to limited color variants, out-of-print status, or lack of availability.
