Have A Thrash Metal Collection Like This You’d Like To Sell?
The collector has a large collection, but only wants to part with it a little at a time, which is fine by me other than having to pay all of the additional shipping. I buy a heavy metal CD and vinyl collections all over the world. If you have a collection like this to sell get hold of me here…
The standout in the collection was three copies of Death’s “Scream Bloody Gore” (all original 1987 pressings). In addition, the was one original U.S. Combat Records pressing, one Under One Flag European pressing, and one French pressing on N.E.W. Musicdisc. The complete list of records is in the list below.
The bulk was an impressive selection of death metal CDs, including many very rare and expensive ones, also in the list below.

If you have a collection of death metal, thrash metal, hard rock or heavy metal CDs, LPs, records, tapes of memorabilia, I am always looking to buy collections, contact me.
In the video and listed below in this post is athrash metal vinyl collection I just bought from a guy in the United Kingdom. All of these are first pressings of LPs from the 1980s and 1990s. Since the start of COVID-19, I have been buying collections more frequently without ever meeting the actual owner, at times never even talking to them. Instead, the deals are all worked out over email. So far, so good. All of the transactions have gone off without a hitch.
Here is a video of all of the awesome LPs I picked up on this awesome deal.
Photos
Here are some photos of some of my favorite LPs from this haul. One of my favorites is the cult classic “History Of A Time To Come” by Sabbat. The 2 Bolt Thrower“Warmaster” and “Realms Of Chaos” are both excellent and very hard to find as well. The rarest and most expensive album is the first press of Sadus “Illusions” album, which is self-released. I’m sure how many copies of that were pressed, but it wasn’t very many. It was later reissued as “Chemical Exposure” by Roadracer Records (also included in this collection). Also great was the Metallica “Ride The Lightning” 1987 reissue limited edition DMM master – super rare…I’ve never even had one of these before.
The video above is a collection I bought locally in Los Angeles from a girl whose boyfriend had gone back to Canada and didn’t return for many months. I paid a fair price for this collection, but got a way better deal that I would normally get buying from a collector that was trying to cash in (and there’s nothing wrong with that).
The average condition was a long way from near mint and was an average of “very good”. It was a mix of classic rock, hard rock, thrash metal, and punk.
Some of the standouts in the collection included:
Samhain – November-Coming-Fire LP – 1986 Plan 9 – PL9-07 VG/VG – this was an actual first press, it was difficult to tell with reading the runout matrix which is.
Matrix / Runout (A-side etchings): PL-9-07-A -Pa.1-86 Matrix / Runout (B-side etchings): PL-9-07-B -Pa.1-86 Matrix / Runout (Stamped on both sides, EDP is circled): MASTERED BY TRUTONE EDP Matrix / Runout (A-side label): PL9-07-A Matrix / Runout (B-side label): PL9-07-B
Autopsy – Severed Survival LP 1989 Peaceville – VILE 12 United Kingdom VG/VG – very rare – one of the first albums to come out on Peacevillle Records (1989) – which didn’t get on the map as a big underground label until the 1990s/
Black Flag – Damaged LP 1981 SST Records – 9502 w/ Anti-Parent Sticker
Kiss – Kiss LP 1974 Casablanca – NB 9001 VG/VG 1st Press Blue Label – with the alternate track list without “Kissin’ Time” – which was added on the 2nd pressing because the record company didn’t feel like there was “a hit”.
Obituary – Cause Of Death LP 2010 Cargo Records – RRCAR 8767-1 EUROPE VG/VG
Cannibal Corpse – Eaten Back To Life LP 2015 Back On Black BOBV140LP Blue VG+
Death – Spiritual Healing LP 1990 Under One Flag – FLAG 38 VG/VG UK
Do You Have A Collection Like This You Would Like To Sell?
There were also a large mix of more common classic rock albums that were great none-the-less!
People often ask me if I can buy record collections in Europe and the answer is “Yes, I Can.” This is a small collection of just 20 albums I brought from a collector in Europe and consists of the following:
Septic Death – Gore Story Yellow Vinyl VG+/VG+ Lost and Found Records Septic Death – Now That I Have The Attention What Do I Do With It VG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve Pusmort 0012-01D E-X-E Stricken by Might VG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sheet Axis LP 2 Sodom – Agent Orange VG+/VG+ Gatefold Sleeve Inner Lyric Sleeve SPV 08-7596 Dark Angel – Leave Scars VG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve Flag 30 Misfits Earth – A.D./Wolfsblood VG+/VG+ Silver Label AG 0024 Mercyful Fate – Curse of the Pharaohs VG/VG+ Satans Nightmare SN 1001 Paradox – Heresy VG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve SPV 08 – 7870 RO 9506 1 Realm – Endless War VG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve RO 9509 1 Defiance – Product of Society VG+/VG+ RO 9504 1 Amulance – Feel the Pain VG+/VG+ SPV 08-9805 Bathory– Under the Sign of the Black Mark VG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve Flag 11 Artillery – Terror Squad VG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve Neat 1038 Onslaught – Power From HellVG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve Flag 7 Morbid Angel – Alters of Madness VG/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve Mosh11 Onslaught – The Force VG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve Flag 1 Deathrow – Raging Steel VG+/VG+ N 0081 Whiplash – Power and PainVG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve RR 9718 Whiplash – Ticket to MayhemVG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sleeve RR 9596 Whiplash – Insult to Injury VG+/VG+ Inner Lyric Sheet RR 9482
While doing deals in Europe is slightly more complex than domestic deals, they can be done all the same. The last few have been done by email only. This buy was stated simply by the guy sending me the list above and this message, “Hi Jason, I’m in the UK and have a number of albums I am looking to sell. Please get in touch so we can discuss what I have to sell.”
The original owner sent me the photos below and I paid him via Paypal.
I bought This killer super-rare vinyl collection from a guy in Europe. The original owner contacted me through my blog, and we exchanged emails over a few weeks. It took a bit to get comfortable wiring thousands of dollars overseas to someone I didn’t know, but I always buy heavy metal records and CD collections, and I’ve never had an issue.
The embedded video is a walkthrough of everything included in this epic thrash metal collection, which consists of 177 albums. Included, were about 15 of them were non-thrash guitar nerd albums, so I removed them to stick to the thrash for this video.

Photo Gallery
Below is a photo gallery of some of the standouts, although most of them were pretty epic. The vinyl was at worst VG+, and quite a bit is EX / NM. The original owner stored all these albums in protective sleeves, so the album jacket quality is impressive, with 95% being VG+ to NM.
Unboxing Video
We filmed this video as I unboxed the album collection for the first time when it first arrived from Belgium.
So much suspense!
List Of Titles
I had a good idea of what titles were included in this collection, although to be honest, I was not 100% sure either! The original owner never compiled a list. He hand-wrote lists of the titles in this collection of paper and then emailed me photos. (see below)
Slayer – Reign In Blood LP 1986 Def Jam Recordings – 924 131-1 – Europe EX/EX
Metallica – …And Justice For All LP 1988 Vertigo – 836 062-1 EX/EX Holland
Metallica – Ride The Lightning LP 1984 Roadrunner – RR 9848 EX/VG+ Europe
Metallica – Kill ‘Em All LP 1983 Roadrunner Records – RR 9902 VG+/EX Netherlands
Black Message is an unofficial bootleg release that came out in 1986 on a German label. The first version of the album had a white label with no writing or information on it. Because of the unofficial nature of this release, it is blocked for sale on Discogs. You can find it on eBay and it usually costs around $400 for the black version. There is also a multicolor swirl version that was released in 1986. It usually sells for a higher price — but collectors like the black version better because it comes with a real sleeve.

It’s really hard to find good heavy metal vinyl collections, this is a rare exception. I managed to pick this one up with someone in Pittsburgh who answered my ad seeking vinyl collections. I paid a pretty penny for this collection, but it’s well worth it as is all the vinyl is in near-mint condition and contains many HUGE TILES (most first press). Check out this video of the unboxing.
You could check out this page where I listed the contents of all these albums, they are from the golden age of metal circa 1984 to 1989. A lot of good thrash metal and some hard to find hair metal records.
