Stripes sold less than Metallica & Metallica sold nearly 3000 units according to this http://m.billboard.com/v/News/RecordStoreDaySets

No, and they won't.
 
But this says it was the most sold item on RSD, beating the metallica cassette that was limited to 10,000. 

Unless they printed the packaging in different runs and from different artwork files (both highly unlikely), this is probably fake.

I'm just wondering how are they pissed? They pressed an insanely low quantity for the theme song for one of the most popular shows on television and announced they were only going to sell roughly half of that already low quantity at a certain time, and are suprised when their server (which they've already had issues with to boot) gets overloaded with traffic so much so that they can't put it up for sale and then it turns out, after all that, they aren't going to put it up at all. Not really sure how they would or could be pissed at the situation.

Why would they be mad that people want to buy their product? I guess maybe they could be mad that they still haven't figured out this whole internet thing, but there are labels that have been doing this for way longer than them that still have webstore issues now and then.
Really bummed that I typed out a serious reply in this thread when all I really wanted to do was post "IT'S UP!".

"Sorry Ma, I Forgot to Take Out the Garbage" 
 
Good work Billboard.

I feel like TMR exists to screw with completist record collectors. I mean, from the very beginning, they've made it extremely difficult on collectors, essentially turning the world into one great big vinyl scavenger hunt.
 
So having said that, I don't expect them to ever think about what would make it easier for collectors to buy rare TMR stuff... but that's kind of the fun of it for me.

Hey guys. chilllllllllll.
STL-Ben: Jett sold some records that didn't get distributed. They were gone pretty much instantly. I do think the colored variants were a little excessively priced, but that's just, like, my opinion man. I bought a standard black one for $15 which is just about what I expected it to go for in store (though it often sold at $9).
 
Jett: You did markup the records. Whatever, they were yours to sell as you pleased. No judgment. This release would still have been impossible to track down if they all had MSRP set at $30. People say STL_Ben flips records. Whatever, they're his to sell. Same premise. I don't condone flipping records in any format (as with Ben or with your PU recs), but I do sometimes support flippers as a last ditch effort to get what I want.
 
So, let's don't go textually attacking each other, let's just chiiiiillllllll.
 
the hobby

If you still have copies of something then it isn't sold out.....
There is a Newbury thread where we talk about that quiet a bit.
Don't think there is a Grimtale thread on here....but I wouldn't know as I don't buy most of his stuff anymore.

Hey, STD_Ben- a ) I only deleted that first post because it contained inaccurate and old information on the distribution of the record. Sorry this confused you, but maybe you should've read it before downvoting. You're probably not that smart, though, so I'll give you a pass on that one. b ) I sometimes throw up 2-3 copies of an old release during a sale so new fans of the label can grab up some copies of records they didn't have the chance to get when they went up. Don't think I gouge customers with pricing, but everyone surely is entitled to an opinion! Pretty sure tons of labels keep stock on releases, but it's not like I'm keeping boxes of stock in my basement like they're doing with Deja Entendu or the Newbury releases (how long into you break into their label HQ and snag a box of those to flip?) Why don't you speak out against other labels like Grimtale Records (and others) that put up stock for sale after it's 'sold out', albeit at a premium price? Oh, it's probably because you want to kiss his ass. Anyways, nice work on your quick and witty reply. Bye, Snookums!

A couple words of advice on this record.
- Be sure to quote posts from him...because he often deletes things (see above blank posts for example.)
- If something sells out...don't be surprised if there is still more.  Previous releases have sold out on multiple occasions and then more just happen to show up (sometimes with higher prices.)

I am.  They were $110 at mondocon.  I wasn't there so I had to pay to get it shipped to me. I paid $125 for it and that's what I'm asking....actually I'll be loosing money since I paid $125 and will be paying to ship it to the buyer.  So if people want to down vote me for selling it at a loss....I guess have fun.

So I got down voted for simply stating how much they are selling for on ebay?.....I don't understand this crowd sometimes.

$65 sounds way better than the $600 they are selling for on eBay....

Here's the deal. This thread is for discussing Mondo and its releases. Stay on topic and track.
 
If you want to troll and talk shit about other members and just be annoying, take that shit to 4chan or somewhere else.

Here's a (bad) picture of the iron giant variant if anyone was wondering what it looked like. I love the cover so much. Mondo had a shirt with it on it, i have to get it when it goes on sale online. 
 

Perfect! Can you just provide a spreadsheet with cost breakdown?
Also I will need a set of everything unsealed and mint to put in frames (covering every square inch of house) and I will need another set all sealed to sit uselessly on my shelves forever.
Udabaist man!

Please don't PM me, let's work out all the arrangements publicly here in the non buy/sell/trade area of the board. Kthx.

This is the Mondo thread, get all your damn Mondo talk out of here! Fuckin Mondo traders.. 

Realtruth can get realannoying

Thanks for that, realtruth. It's not like I was trying to trade a Mondo title for another Mondo title in the Mondo thread.
Keep on dickin' on.

Seriously! This board is purely for bitching about prices/art/burlap/anything.

Not just you guys, but fuck off with this already.
Wrong board.
