maybe your kids' kids might have a chance.
 
 

that's awesome.
a few years ago when I was in Japan, I found a copy of the red White Pony vinyl, signed by the whole band including Chi.
It's currently one of my favorite things I own.

Jeff’s a great guy and wonderful musician...please support him!

Wow, those are some shitty pictures for someone selling one of thee rarest punk records ever. 
 
Maybe they're hoping to cash in so they can finally buy a decent camera or smart phone.

Of course I have, I think most people have resold something at a value that’s been established over time.  That’s never been an argument.  You buy a record because you enjoy the artist or the release.  A year later, maybe 2 or 3, you’re making space on the shelf and you realize that $80 is the median price that record now goes for.  You’re not a monster for trying to sell it around that value even if you paid $25 PPD for it back in 2017.
 
But that’s not the reality for stl_ben, RareLimiteds, and a dozen other scuzzy flippers who deliberately lurk VC and Reddit to hop on “hyped” releases for an immediate resale.  Ben and the gang probably haven’t heard of 70% of the shit they peddle.  They’re going purely off comments (interest), label value, artist history sales, etc.  It’s pathetic.
 
I’ve missed out on releases I would’ve genuinely loved to own and hold onto — because I was in a conference at work or had some real world responsibilities to attend to — and found them for sale on Discogs just 3-4 days later, for quadruple the sale price.  That sucks.  Those people suck.  I think it’s fair to voice that.  Saying “oh well you all have the same opportunity, no sense in complaining” is garbage.  Having some greasy haired couch goblin call me out as not being an adult for “minding my own business”, because I’m venting about instances where I miss out on cool shit because of adult obligations... well, that’s garbage too.  It’s a shitty practice and if you’re cool with it or keen on turning a blind eye, that’s fine.  But don’t come at me just because I’m not.

just so you know..
someone posted a wooden box on discogs for WAY too much.  
however I rarely ever see them pop up!!
 
 
 

a collector friend of mine, just got one for 1k last month.  
needless to say, I am terribly jealous..

ha thank you!! 
yeah it's been a bit crazy the last ten years, collecting all my white whales...
 
I found the white on discogs believe it or not.  it was at a shop in the city.  haha  
anyway, I have been looking for YEARS!

HOLY SHIT u won!!
that's amazing.  
congrats. 
 
good luck on the white.  I just got mine and I have been looking for it for like 10+ years.

Just won a test press of Texas Is The Reason - S/T 7”. Really fucking stoked on that as only 5 are going out into the wild. I think I had something like a 3% chance of winning (guessing from the sales). Now I need to find their LP on white. 

I'll check it out for those sessions then..   (see above for my Germs collection)

see below:
 
wooden box -  
library edition :
 
 
 

took me a lifetime to find both of these.   
want to know something really heartbreaking?  Jeff M once posted these rodan / june of 44 test presses w. letterpress covers and names on them.
I want one SO bad. 

Gotta keep the collection complete so will pick this up hopefully retail on release, also someone trade/sell me the tropics & meridian wooden box and the library edition of engine

Well, I DO smoke (outside) so it wouldn't bother me *wink wink* 

HAHA!!  I have been letting that thing breathe for a few years now, still reeks of smoke.
