In the video below, I showcase an extensive collection of grindcore, punk, and death metal that I picked up from a seller who was about to go to prison in 2 days.
I paid $10,000 for over 600 12″ LPs and 700 7″ singles and EPs. Most of the collection consisted of death metal, punk, and grindcore, although there were some outliers. About 60% of it was first-press stuff, and the rest consisted of various reissues and limited editions.
The Backstory To This Collection
The acquisition of this collection has an interesting backstory. In February 2024, the same seller hit me up about selling a collection of death metal and grindcore CDs. We did the deal by mail. He told me he had an insane collection of records he was thinking about selling. The seller didn’t want to part with them, but was facing legal trouble that could involve prison time. He would only sell them if he needed to.
Fast forward to September 2025. I got a call from him saying that he wanted to sell those records. He described to me what he had to sell. It was such a massive collection that it would beworth a tripfrom Los Angeles to just outside Phoenix, Arizona. I told him that I would try to make some time in the next few weeks. He said if I wanted to get these, I had better come right now because there’s a distinct possibility he could be in prison for 25 years come Friday. He didn’t say what he was in trouble for, but I’m assuming it was some significant drug offense.
The Deal
I left LA at 10 p.m., drove to Arizona, checked into a hotel at 3 a.m., and met the guy the following afternoon. Most of the collections I buy are by mail, and I never meet the actual seller in person. For transactions over 10K, I will frequently go to the seller’s location and pick it up myself. We agreed on a price of $10,000 via Zelle for the entire collection. Normally, I usually only do deals via PayPal, but since we were meeting in person, I could see everything was on the up and up. I didn’t bother haggling with him because the price was fair. It came out to about six dollars a unit when you divided it by everything.
I loaded up my truck and drove back to LA, and that was that.
Highlights
Here are some of the highlights from this awesome metal/punk collection.
Misfits – Halloween 7″ Single
Misfits – Halloween 7″ Single 1981 Plan 9 – PL1017 – This album is a true holy grail for punk collectors. Because of Glenn Danzig’s insistence on never reissuing anything (until now), this heavily bootlegged single is almost impossible to find.
VALUE = $1400
Misfits – Walk Among Us LP
Misfits – Walk Among Us LP 1982 Ruby Records – 1-25756 – Although reissued several times, the first pressings are the ones you want. This copy is complete and includes the original inner sleeve and the Fiend Club flyer.
VALUE = $500
Impaled Nazarene – Tol Cormpt Norz Norz Norz LP
Impaled Nazarene – Tol Cormpt Norz Norz Norz LP 1993 Osmose – OPLP010 – This album was the only black metal title in the entire collection. Fortunately, like all first pressings ofImpaled Nazarene from the 90s, it’s worth a fortune.
VALUE = $370
Crossed Out / Man Is The Bastard – Split 7” EP
Crossed Out / Man Is The Bastard – Split 7” EP 1992 Slap A Ham – #14 – I’m not even sure why this one is as expensive as it is.
VALUE = $300
Incantation – Onward To Golgotha LP [RED]
Incantation – Onward To Golgotha LP 1992 Relapse – RR 6037 – 1 [RED] – “Onward” is the only Incantation album I give a crap about. The first pressing on red vinyl is very sought after by death metal heads and is worth a pretty penny.
VALUE = $300
Assuck – Anticapital LP
Assuck – Anticapital LP 1991 Sound Pollution Records – POLLUTE: 07 – the price on this classic communist punk album will turn anyone into a capitalist real fast!
VALUE = $250
Do You Have A Collection Like This To Sell?
Do you have a rare, extreme punk or metal collection like this that you’d like to sell? I buy collections from all around the world, and will even travel to you if the score is big enough. Use the contact information below to reach me.
A collector contacted me a few months ago and sent me a list of everything they had for sale. To determine the price, they sent me a list of the titles and a few example photos that were somewhat deceptive to represent the grading of the CDs. I’m sharing more on this below.
How The CDs Were Described
Actuality of Most
Some had mold
Pricing / Shipping Method
We agreed on a price ($3200 + shipping costs) and had to figure out a shipping method from the UK. Typically, shipping from Europe via FedEx or UPS is the least expensive. DHL is the best choice for shipping from England, though prices have risen quite a bit for their already costly service. The value of the Euro to the dollar is less lopsided than it used to be, with the exchange rate hovering near 1 for 1 now, making it a buyer’s market if you are in the US.
I sent the money via PayPal, and the seller shipped the collection out the next day.
Issues
Sadly, when the collection arrived, it became clear that the example photos of the CDs did not represent the vast majority of the collection. 70% came covered in mold and quite scratched. I contacted the seller, but they seemed uninterested in fixing the problem. I considered disputing through PayPal because this sale is covered by buyer protection. Ultimately, I did not dispute it once it was put for sale because I saw I could make a decent return. Luckily, the record grading was better than described.

The video above is a walk-thru of some rare golden-age of death metalLPs, EPs, and singles I picked up in a by-mail transactionfrom a collector in Texas. This purchase is a small collection of 18 records in total. However, some of these are rare and expensive. I will highlight the top gems below.
Impaled Nazarene – Ugra – Karma 1993 Osmose Productions – OPLP 018 – This copy is the rare first cover artwork lifted from Madame Koslovsky’s “Mother Durga riding on her tiger carrier offers prayers to Lord Vishnu”. The artist sued Impaled Nazareneand Osmose Productions for using this art without permission and had to settle out of court, making these first pressings extremely rare and expensive.
Demigod / Necropsy – Unholy Domain / Necropsy 1992 Seraphic Decay Records – SCAM 028 – This split LP is a compilation of exclusive tracks from Necropsy and a previously unreleased demo from Demigod. It is rarer than a coherent thought from Joe Biden.
Value: 200-400$ average
Master’s Hammer – Klavierstück 7″ EP 1991 Poserslaughter – PSR 004 [Green] *DE – Master’s Hammer is a weird band with a sound that is not easy to define. Unfortunately, limited pressings of this colored vinyl are not cheap either.
Value: 100$ average
Immortal Fate – Faceless Burial 7″ EP 1992 Drowned Productions DS-002 VG+ Spain – This rare gem from the short-lived Immoral Fate is quite sought after by collectors and henceforth not cheap.
Value: 100$ average
Vomitory – Moribund 7″ Single 1993 Witchhunt Records – 9309 VG+/VG+ [Sweden] – This 7″ was the first music the world would hear from the still-active Vomitory and is not cheap.
Value: 80$ average
Wombbath – Several Shapes 7″ EP 1992 Infest Records – THIN 001 [France] VG+/VG+ – This EP is only one of three of Wombbath’s 90s recordings before taking over 20 years off and returning to active status in 2015.
Value: 80$ average
Monstrosity – Burden Of Evil 7″ Single 1991 Relapse Records – RR-011 VG+/VG+ – Not the most expensive compared to other early Monstrosity vinyl, but featured because you can see George Corpsegrinder’s neck was already like a treetrunk even at the tender age of 19!
Value: 80$ average
Sinister – Putrefying Remains 7″ EP 1990 Witchhunt Records WIHU 9103 VG+/VG+ *SW – I included this EP because I was surprised at how not expensive it is. Released in 1990, even before the infamous Cross The Styx album, I’m shocked it’s not worth more.
Value: 50$ average
