Forget MOONBLOOD.
I've seen few bands fetch more than MISFITS along with SAMHAIN.
Example:

I had an original Halloween 7" EP that I sold for $150 a fews ago, which in retrospect was a mistake. I must of needed the money for something back then, because I still wonder why I parted with it. I think I was on a major MISFITS/SAMHAIN collecting kick, but gave up because I knew I couldn't go threw with it. I still have a couple of great gems, like my orange vinyl "November-Coming-Fire", which I've seen sell for close to $500.
The pink vinyl Initium has an interesting history. I believe it was Danzig and Eerie Von who would press the records themselves at the planet. I believe they did a run of white vinyl before doing one in red, but neglected to clean the machine. Which result in 10-15 copies coming out in different shades of pink. |

He or she must be a huge fan of the Misfits to spend this money on an EP.

Isn't the SAMHAIN "Unholy Passion" MLP rare as fuck as well? Not that I own that one, but I rarely see that one pop up anywhere. Not talking about a genuine "Cough Cool / She" 7"! The thing is, all those MISFITS 7"s have been counterfeited that often and actually very good by now, that it's very hard to tell them apart, unless you REALLY now your shit, that is... _________________ "Slit my eyes, for they'll remember..." |

The first pressing of Unholy Passion (tan cover, black vinyl) is worth around $60. Much more if it has the poster and order form that only a few of the 1000 printed has.
The red and white vinyls can fetch between $200 and $400 each. |
