No This Is Patrick Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 What they should've done is release them all individually as 2xLP's and charge $75 for them. zacooper, chhholly123, THE_James_Champ and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Banned User] Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 It's fuNny seeing people on their Facebook express our same feelings about this release to only have someone say "no one cares. Stop complaining." I'll just keep connvincing myself that if I got the white, I'd end up with putting a huge black fingerprint on it by accident. Plus white vinyl is the bad.

Saxonjulin Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Wow! What a huge slap in the face. Making the second one on white vinyl and more limited. Anberlin not only took my last dollar they just lost me as a fan. I am all for supporting bands but not like this.

SpazzyMcGee Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Why don't bands do what poster companies do? Have a specific time when you can reserve a copy then make that exact amount of the people who requested one so everyone can get one? There are always people who are always going to resell just like everything else in the world, can't really fight against it.. It's probably not feasible to make 1000s of boxsets but making an even more limited boxset seems backwards to me.. What am I even talking about, madness prevails always!

throughbeingcruel Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 It took like three months to sell out the first time around. I remember it was still in stock when it got delayed. Total bullshit on their part but not nearly as bullshitty as Mutemath. Glad I have the first run box and don't have to give Anberlin any more money.

Saxonjulin Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Yep. Their music left a bad taste in my mouth. I own all their original albums on vinyl. Considering selling them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never had the intent to flip my 1 copy of my Anberlin Boxset that I bought to enjoy. This bands greed and deceitfulness in the way they lied to their fans has turned my stomach. I can't stand to have this Boxset in my collection. I'll always think about the way they lied to their fans when I look at it. I'll gladly take what I payed for it. I'm bad at math but I'll gladly take $165 + PayPal and discogs fees + shipping. If no one buys my Boxset I'm thinking about making some vinyl bowls Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmhmm Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I don't get this guy. I understood the disappointment about seeing a second, cooler pressing after being told the first pressing would be the only one...but completely giving up on the band?

billya Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I like Anberlin's music. That being said, the whole "woe is me" attitude that they have had since before they split up is getting old. Saxonjulin and zacooper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltadon Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 No one is asking me, but yeah I'm salty about the white edition coming so soon, and the reason being that the original is getting scalped. So the solution is to make a variant box set thats even more limited, especially when the hardcore fans cashed out already. No one buy this. Save your money for next year when the see the white is going for $400 on eBay and they make the clear box set. Then they will do splatter....
