In the video below is highlights from a collection of rare death metal CDs I bought from Arizona recently.
The last few months have been pretty crazy with collection buying. As a business owner, I can tell you my inventory is better than ever. That’s because more people are selling than buying because they are broke.
This is my current inventory of collections I bought but haven’t even had a chance to go through yet.
If I had what I have now two years ago, I would be making 5K a day in gross sales. Instead, I’m making a fraction of that. That said, I’m doing OK… better than many—but that is not the point of this rant.
As we go into this election season, know this: If you think inflation is waning, you are dead wrong. Please don’t believe the hype about the Fed’s interest rate cut because inflation is “over.” It’s all performative theater.
Thrash Metal IQ is all about metal. That is as far as I care to get into politics on the site.
I’m cutting this month’s blog post short so I can to get back to cataloging all this stuff I bought recently.
Have A Collections Like This To Sell?
Despite the massive stack of boxes at the top of this post, I am still buying!
Check out the information below if you want to sell your heavy metal collection.
Below is a tour of an awesome CD collection I bought locally in LA. Unlike many metal CD collections I purchase, I didn’t do this through the mail. The local seller came to my business, I saw the CDs before buying and paid him in cash. This was much simpler than my typical out-of-state or even out-of-country transactions.
The collection consisted of almost 700 death and black Metal CDs ranging from the 1980s to current bands. The guy had great taste in music, and there was no cheesy metal in this batch. The only problem was that he initially asked for $5000 for the whole lot, which was expensive. While I could have bought them for this much, it wouldn’t have been worth my time / paying for help to list them. I told him that if he wanted that kind of cash (as opposed to PayPal), he would be best off selling them individually on eBay, and he would earn that after a year or two of work. It is also important to remember that no matter how great your CD collection is, about 40% of it will never sell.
Below are some of my favorite and most valuable CDs from this collection, along with some approximate values.
Imprecation – Theurgia Goetia Summa CD
Screenshot
Imprecation – Theurgia Goetia Summa CD 1996 Repulse Records – RPS 012 – released in 1996, this album is a compilation of the band’s earlier material, demos, and 7-inch singles. Imprecation is an absolutely killer Texas death metal band that is still active to this day.
Value = $120
Hellhammer – Demon Entrails CD

Hellhammer—Demon Entrails CD 2008 Century Media [2 Disc Deluxe Mediabook] — Century Media released this deluxe edition compilation of Hellhammer’s early 80s material and demos in 2008. This deluxe edition mediabook is entirely out of print and hard to find.
Value = $80
Deicide – Deicide CD
Screenshot
Deicide—Deicide CD 1990 R/C Records—RCD 9381 [1st Press] – The first pressings of the debut Deicide CD are hard to find because it was popular and repressed many times early in its release. I included a picture of the back of the CD to show you what an actual first pressing looks like.
Value = $80
Sodom – In The Sign Of Evil CD
Screenshot
Sodom—In The Sign Of Evil CD 1988 Steamhammer—SHCD 4004 [First Press] *DE — While this Sodom EP was originally released in 1984, it never saw an official CD pressing until 1988 and is very rare and valuable.
Value = $100
Satanic Warmaster / Archgoat – Lux Satanae CD

Satanic Warmaster / Archgoat – Lux Satanae CD 2016 Hells Headbangers – HELLS130 – this rare split between Satanic Warmaster and Archgoat is only a few years old but completely out-of-print. Hopefully, Hells Headbangers will re-issue this soon, but until then, be prepared to pay a lot for a used one.
Value = $80
Vital Remains – Into Cold Darkness CD

Vital Remains—Into Cold Darkness CD 1995 Peaceville CDVILE 48 [1st Press] — This CD has been re-issued many times, but you want the first pressing.
Have A Metal Collection Like This You Want To Sell?
The video below is a complete walk-thru of a great collection of thrash metal CDs I bought from a widow selling them because her husband recently passed.
Unfortunately, I get too many collections this way these days. While it is always sad when a fallen metal brother passes on, it is good that their music can carry on. More importantly, I pay generously for quality metal CD collections so the family can get decent money for what they left behind.
No To The Awesome Thrash Metal
I buy collections of every metal subgenre; most I get are death metal and black metal, but I rarely run into a collection of my favorite subgenre: THRASH METAL (as you can probably guess by the name of this website). I grew up in the 1980s during the heyday of bands like Slayer, Kreator, Sodom, and Exodus. Thrash metal was king from 1985-1989 before dying a slow death in the early 90s under the weight of grunge.
The CDs in this collection consist of around 50% reissues and 50% original pressings. Many of the CDs in this collection came from some of the more obscure (to very obscure) bands that populated the later years of the thrash scene. Even many reissues are limited pressings of 1000 or less on small labels like Divebomb Records.
Highlights From This Collection
Below are some of the standout pieces from this collection.
Equinox – The Way To Go CD
Screenshot
Equinox—The Way To Go CD 1990 RCA—PD 74669 [Norway] — This release is likely a tax write-off for RCA. Many bootlegs of the CD exist; there are no reissues, and originals are exceptionally rare and very expensive.
VALUE: $150
Cyclone – Inferior To None CD
Cyclone—Inferior To None CD 1991 Justice Records—JR-CD02-90 [Belgium]—This obscure Belgian thrash metal band is beloved by hardcore thrash fans. The original vinyl pressing came out in 1990, and this 1991 press is the first pressing on CD.
VALUE: $100
Exhorder – Slaughter in the Vatican CD
Screenshot
Exhorder—Slaughter in the Vatican CD 1990 Roadrunner RO 9363-2 [Original]—This debut CD from New Orleans-based thrashers Exhoder is thrash metal done as well as it can be. The band followed this release with 1992’s “The Law” before breaking up for nearly 30 years and returning in 2020.
VALUE: $100
Forced Entry – As Above So Below CD
Screenshot
Forced Entry – As Above So Below CD 1991 Relativity – 88561-2024-2 – The second release from one of those great thrash metal bands that came too late. It is completely out of print, with no reissues, and costs an arm and a leg.
VALUE: $90
Equinox – Xerox Success CD
Screenshot
Equinox – Xerox Success CD 1992 RCA – PD 75210 [Original] – Another thrash metal band that came too late to be the next Metallica only to become another tax write-off for RCA
VALUE: $90
ZnoWhite – Act Of God CD
Screenshot
ZnoWhite – Act Of God CD 1988 Roadracer – RR9587 – This female-fronted band split up shortly after this album when vocalist Debbie Gunn returned to her former band Sentinal Beast.
VALUE: $80
Have A Collection Like This To Sell?
I am constantly on the hunt for metal CDs and vinyl collections of any size. Contact me at the information below.
There were a couple of stand-out things about this collection.
Rare Unofficial Iron Maiden CDs
The first was a crazy selection of sealed Iron Maiden bootlegs. Ten CDs recorded from the Legacy of The Beast Tour 2019 in various cities were sealed, and some very impressive artwork included that I could have sworn was painted by Derek Riggs himself.
Unfortunately, these Iron Maiden CDs are unofficial and can’t be sold in my eBay store, but you can pick them up from me directly if you contact me. I will give you a great deal on the whole lot.
Rare Blackmoon Records Black Metal CD
Next up is the extremely rare Blackmoon Records from Poland. Like the Iron Maiden, all of these CDs are technically “unofficial,” but you can get away with selling these on eBay because of bands like Horna, Moonblood, and Sargeist. One interesting thing about Moonblood is that even though they are a legendary black metal band, everything they released until 2014 was a bootleg of demo recordings.
When I was a kid, my parents only listened to very lame music like Barbra Streisand. Props to this guy for listening to some very based black metal and killer Iron Maiden. While it is very sad that this true metal warrior has moved on to Valhalla, his music will live on.
Do You Have A Collection Like This To Sell?
I am always looking to buy collections like this, no matter where you are in the Uniited States or the world.
In the video below are some highlights from a collection of death metal, goregrind, pornogrind, and cyberbrind CDs I bought from a collector in Seattle. I had to cut the video short and edit it for YouTube to keep my channel from getting a strike because of the graphic nature of some of these covers.
For those unaware, goregrind is an offshoot of death metal initially pioneered by UK’s Carcass. It existed as an extreme sub-genre of death metal before breaking off into even more extreme sub-genres such as goregrind and pornogrind by bands like Meatshits, Lividity, Anal Blast, and Waco Jesus.
Collection Highlights
Here are some of the rare and valuable CDs in this collection. I decided to use the censored photos to avoid getting this blog in hot water with the powers at Google.
Serial Butcher – Exhumed Rotting CD
Serial Butcher – Exhumed Rotting CD 1997 Self-Released – This very rare self-released CDr by this goremetal band from Belgium is almost impossible to find.

Whore – Unfinished Business CD 2003 Moribund Records – DEAD 49 CD [Rare] – I don’t know much about this band, but they had two albums out on Moribund Records in the mid-2000s.

Value = $30
Lividity – Perverseverance CD
Lividity – Perverseverance CD 2018 Metal Age Productions – MAP132 [Slovakia] – Of all the bands mentioned in the post, Lividity is the only one still active today. Lividity was formed 1995 as a one-man project by Dave Kibler and later recruited members to become a “traditional” band.
Below are some highlights from a relatively small collection of CDs I bought from a private collector.
Even though this black and death metal CD collection is much smaller than the ones I usually get, I paid the guy $700 for it because a few rare/valuable CDs were included. Some of the conditions of the playing surfaces of some discs could have been better.
I am only interested in VG and up when buying metal CD collections. Many people think that “if the CD will play all the way through without skipping” means it is in very good condition, but this is not true. CDs with significant marks become worth substantially less and lose much resale value. If you want to grade your CDs, more information can be found here.
Highlights From This Collection
The entries below contain info about some of the more valuable CDs in the collection and their corresponding values.
The Black Dahlia Murder – A Cold-Blooded Epitaph CD
The Black Dahlia Murder – A Cold-Blooded Epitaph CD 2002 Lovelost Records – LL01 is one of the most expensive CDs I bought in ANY collection.

Have A Collection Like This To Sell?
I am always in the market to acquire new collections. If you have one to sell, contact me using the information below.
In the video below is a small portion of over 2500 metal CDs I just bought. Almost all are near-mint, over half are rare Japanese pressings, and many are sealed.
It was my understanding that the father died way too young, at the age of 60. What is remarkable about this collection is it spans the entire length of the genre, from Black Sabbath to bands that came out in the last few years.
Using PayPal and Trust
This transaction was a five-figure deal. Often, I am asked how I feel comfortable buying collections like this sight unseen and how buyers can feel comfortable working with me. I do all of these out-of-state deals through PayPal as goods and services. I pay the seller in full before their mailing. Paying upfront locks me into the agreement and assures the seller I’m a man of my word.
When you use PayPal as “goods and services,” you are allowing PayPal to act as an impartial referee. It creates a type of escrow between you and the seller. If something goes wrong, you can open a dispute inside PayPal, and they will sort it out. I have only had to do this once in hundreds of transactions. It’s good to know that 99% of people are honest.
Using PayPal insures both parties should it get lost in the mail or damaged because of improper packing or postal abuse.
PayPal sometimes holds for a few days before releasing them, but it usually does not. Fees go to the seller at 2.9%, which is quite reasonable.
Great Features In This Collection
All Japanese CDs in this collection are still factory-sealed with the OBI strip, genuinely “near mint.”Many are in SHM-CD format. SHM is a specialized audiophile format for which you need a Japanese SHM CD player, but it will normally play on a standard player.
Most of the non-import versions of the CDs are the deluxe collector versions that frequently include extra tracks, patches, and bonus tracks.
Regardless of value, every CD in this collection is housed in plastic collector sleeves.
That is all for this blog post; I will have to spread this out among a few posts because of the size of this collection.
Do You Have a Record or CD Collection You Want To Sell?
I am always looking to buy collections like this. Contact me at the information below if you have one to sell.
I am guilty of spending more time in these blog posts covering the crazy vinyl collectionsI buy, never highlighting any awesome CD collections I acquire. I am picking up nearly ten CD collections for every vinyl collection I buy, yet I rarely feature them. That all changes with this month’s blog update.
The video below features a quick tour of a collection of nearly 1,000 heavy, death, and thrash metal CDs I bought from a collector in South Carolina. While many of these CDs are pretty common stuff you see frequently, there were definitely some gems in there.
Some CDs had more scratches than I would have liked, and quite a few club/BMG discs were in there. All in all, I’m happy with this purchase. At least the seller packed the CDs really well.
The Gems
Here is a list of some of the better discs in this collection.
Cannibal Corpse – Tomb of the Mutilated CD
Cannibal Corpse – Tomb of the Mutilated CD 1992 Metal Blade – 3984-14003-2 – This CD has ben reissued many times, but if you have the original 1992 press, it’s worth something.
Value: $60
Psychosomatic – Clicking Sound Of A Hammer Pulled Back CD
Psychosomatic – Clicking Sound Of A Hammer Pulled Back CD 2015 Buriedinhell – While this album is only a few years old, this new-school thrash classic sold out so quickly that the value has already skyrocketed.
Value: $50
Hallows Eve – History of Terror CD/DVD
Hallows Eve – History of Terror CD/DVD 2006 Metal Blade 3984-14565-2 [4 CD Set] – This 4 CD/DVD compilation from one of my favorite Where Are They Now? heavy metal band Hallows Eve. This Atlanta thrash metal group was one of the greatest bands that never made it.
Value: $50
Vio-Lence – Oppressing The Masses CD
Vio-Lence – Oppressing The Masses CD 1990 Atlantic – 7 82105-2 [ORIGINAL PRESS] – Vio-Lence was one of the “lucky” bands in the late 80s to get signed to a major label. Due to management problems, Vio-lence got dropped from the Atlantic. Oppressing The Masses was never reissued, and it is unavailable on streaming.
Value: $50
This collection has many other great titles, but I will leave it here for now.
Do You Have A CD Collection Live This To Sell?
I am constantly in the market to buy new collections. Hit me up at the info below if you have one.
In the video below is a collection I bought from a collector in Arizona through the mail. Most of the records are newer pressings and reissues, but many out-of-print/limited edition gems are in there, and some are already worth decent money.
In the section below, I have included info about some of the standout pieces in this collection.
Beastie Boys – Polly Wog Stew 7″
Beastie Boys – Polly Wog Stew 7″ EP 1982 Rat Cage Records – MOTR 21 VG+/VG+ – This EP was by far the most expensive piece in this collection. When you see copies of this album, they are primarily represses that came out in the early 90s after the Beastie Boys were already famous. This 7″ is the original 1982 pressing and is worth a ton. The condition is excellent and on the high end of VG+.
Value = $395
Cryptic Slaughter – Money Talks LP
Cryptic Slaughter – Money Talks LP 1987 Restless – 72204-1 [Original Sealed!] – The second album from the Califonia thrashers that played so fast they heavily influenced grindcore.

Sepultura – Morbid Visions CD 1990 New Renaissance Records – NRCD43 [Original] – This album originally came out on Brazil’s Cogumelo Produções but would never appear on CD until this reissue on the now-defunct New Renaissance Records.

6) Slayer – Hell Awaits CD
Slayer – Hell Awaits CD 1986 Combat – 88561-8020-2 [Rare First Pressing] – This Japanese press for the US market of Slayer’s second full-length album is distinctive by its orange tray card.

Dawn – Nær Solen Gar Niþer For Evogher CD 1994 Necropolis – NR 006 ORIGINAL – All of the 90s albums, Swedish melodic-death metal band Dawn, are extremely expensive. Even the reissues cost quite a bit and sell out immediately. If you have never listened to Dawn, I highly recommend you do.
