Tags Matching: W.A.S.P.

Priced Like A Beast.

Seller wyco_vintage is driving me nuts with his BIN on this one, which is the W.A.S.P. tee I most desire. And every time I see it as I scroll through auction thumbnails, I check it out without bothering to look a few inches over to see the price, which should always tip me off that it’s always THIS VERY TEE THAT I CAN NOT AFFORD. Make An Offer option, where are you when I need you?

If You Want Blood…

…then a couple sellers have it for you. Seller kittylove* gives you a bloody lipped Blackie Lawless, on a W.A.S.P. tee that I wish were way bigger…

…and seller xx43xx brings us an AC/DC tee that’s just a bit too silly for me. It’s the back print that does it. You’ll see why once you take a look.

Last Chance For The Last Command.

You didn’t think I was gonna sit this whole Metal Monday out did you? Not on your life. There’s not much time left for you to get you bids in on these Last Command era W.A.S.P. tees being auctioned off by drob50spurs and slayerrules1. You’ve got a day on the black tee, but only a few hours left on the white longsleeve…

Attn Hairoholics!

Don’t blame me for that one, blame seller kittylove*, who starts off each of their metal tee auctions with that horrifyingly awkward word. It’s so terrible, I might start using it every week. Even worse, this sick W.A.S.P. tee featuring Blackie Lawless as Rambo is marred with a crappy autograph from the drummer… who seriously even knows the name of W.A.S.P’s drummer? Only a hairoholic I suppose.

(For some reason, the seller does not have an enlarge option for the pics of this tee, so I pulled that one from the T-Shirt Slayer archives. Click the pic and go to the auction for the actual, tiny pics of the shirt for sale.)

And don’t be fooled by the very hair metal front of this second, actually pictured W.A.S.P tee; despite it’s appearance, it’s for animals only.

W.A.S.P. Longsleeve Let Down.

By morgado | Published 01/26/2011

I got REALLY super excited when I saw this W.A.S.P. longsleeve from geisten, but then I realized two things.

Thing 1: it’s red. I can’t pull off red (yes, that should have been obvious, but like I said, I was excited).
Thing 2: the price tag is obscene.

I ask you: why oh why must good W.A.S.P. shirts be so hard to find?

Why Do I Bother Using The “Watch List” Feature?

By morgado | Published 08/30/2010

I always forget about whatever it is I put into my watch list. Always.

Case in point. Believe it or not, this Straight Edge hardcore kid is super into W.A.S.P.

Yes, that W.A.S.P.

Now, actual W.A.S.P. shirts that aren’t hideous, either in price or design, are a nigh impossibility to find. The over priced expensive ones from vintage stores, sure they’re always there, but even the hideous ones rarely show up with low start bids. But late last week, I stumbled upon one that was actually wearable, and still moderately low ($20 I think it was at). So I figured what the hell, I’ll check in on it towards the end and maybe throw in a bid. So instead of BEING SMART AND POSTING IT HERE WHERE I CAN’T MISS IT (and by posting I mean writing a draft and not publishing it, some things I’m just not gonna share with y’all), I put it on my watch list.

Dumb. Dumb. Dumb.

I forgot all about it, and when I finally did remember, it turns out it sold for an easily affordable $34.

So now I’m stuck with blackrebelvintage‘s over priced version. $200? No, thank you.
