The Maiden die hards go nuts for these things. The 7"s go for a right bit so I can only assume you may get 3 figures for them

I remember buying Live After Death from Caroline Music in Belfast and getting it home to find plain white sleeves inside, took it back to the shop to be told yeah thats EMI Ireland version no you can't have one with photo sleeves they aren't sold here (was probably a lie)

Just to join in on the original posters question.

I'm thinking of chucking a few things on ebay myself. What could I expect to get for a general Maiden Bootleg on vinyl? Same goes for Slayer Metallica etc etc? I guess I'm asking would it be worth my while putting that stuff up?

going from popsike records of ebay you'd get between £60-£100 depending on the whim of bidders Smile


as for Ariaga 2 question, depending on the rarity of the bootleg (ie if it's one from late 80'-late 90's) it could be worth a fair bit and reach a good price, as for the recently released 2000+ era boots of those bands £10-£20, once again depending on what bidders you get.

Not sure what they go for now, but I sold a POM on ebay about 2005ish and got either £150 or £180. I get the impression that POM is probably the easiest to find.

As far as I know there's Killers - Somewhere in Time available on lp.

The 7 inches generally go for more then the lps and there's every single from Sanctuary to Stranger in a Strange Land I think.

The value of them is becuase there would be fuck all of them with the being pressed for the Irish market.

The green EMI's seem to command the highest prices.

Couple to watch

A couple of Irish Maiden 7"s went for three figures recently on ebay, as did a copy of AC/DC's Back In Black. I keep dreaming that I'm gonna find a load of these in a Charity Shop somewhere, someday. Laughing

Seen the green label emi's in charity shops - pity they all turn out to be Cliff Richard ones lol. The Irish edditions of mid 70s vertigo records are on the blue philips label - have sabbath and lizzy lps on that label. Another big cash item are irish Cure 7"s

Aye, some of my Lizzy albums are on the blue label as well. Must keep an eye out for Cure stuff in future then. Smile Early U2 stuff is worth a packet too.

I have The Number of the Beast, Piece of Mind, Powerslave, 2 Minutes to Midnight and Wasted Years all Irish pressings. Bought them in school off a guy who robbed them off his brother, as part of 10 record lot with a few other Maiden singles and Seasons in the Abyss LP. Price IR£2.

Had them for about 15 years before I found out there was anything special about them. I'd thought all along that the Running Free Live Pic Disc was the real bargain out of the bunch.

Nice one nh. It's great when you get bargains like that. Your story reminds me of the time I landed an early pressing of Sabbaths Vol. 4 from a guy in School for £1. I nearly took his hand off. Funny, he said it was his Brothers too. Smile
