Papi Blanco Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 missed on yellow, but snagged a blue. Im content with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starjigga Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Didn't they confirm that they made 1000 in total? (As opposed to the 500 it says in the description still) looks like they have the first 500 of the 1500. so assuming either circa will bring them out for their next tour, maybe HT might get some & the other will come from merch connection?

ejc625 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 All those variants are such a great price were so tempting. Just never have purchased more than one of the same record. Too many other albums out there I'd rather have. Duff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_Sofa Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 this confusion again regarding the Yellow/Black pressing numbers: https://killermerch.com/artist/CircaSurvive/CircaSurvive-DescensusYellowSplatterVinyl This Yellow/Black splatter vinyl was an exclusive through Killer Merch for the pre-order bundles. There were only 500 Copies made. After all cancelled and undeliverable orders were processed, we have 27 copies left in the warehouse. None of these were shipped and returned, these are all brand new, and have never been shipped. Once these are gone they are gone forever.

MayCauseDeath Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 The Hot Topic splatter vinyl is getting repressed Now when you say repressed, do you mean with a different color? Or the same color pushing the edition size past its 1,000 unit original size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Now when you say repressed, do you mean with a different color? Or the same color pushing the edition size past its 1,000 unit original size? Same color as the first press that was exclusive to Hot Topic so now there will more than 1000 of that color.

That is super lame and against what a edition size is supposed to represent. If an artist did a giclee print edition of 1000, and then they all sold out, he legally couldn't just print more for the hell of it. I know cause i work in the art industry.

That first blue splatter was /1000. This second blue splatter is out of /1000. Never was there mention that it was a one time pressing. Who cares?

Never was there mention that it was a one time pressing. Who cares? THE HOBBY The integrity of the whole fucking industry. If you purchase something and are told its of a specific amount, they should stick to that amount. Not just keep printing more. Imagine if all of a sudden Converge decided to reprint their original pressings of the red/orange and rootbeer pressings and make it no different from the original in any way, essentially extending the edition size, I would be fucking livid.

But I am mainly pissed because I know people have probably spend a lot more than they should have on ebay acquiring this after is was deemed "sold out." Now their investment is ruined because hottopic decided to just print more instead of create a new variant. I am not one of those people but I feel bad seeing people screwed over.

I don't even own a record player, I collect the records, I have never played a single one of the 300+ I own. So my motivations are different than others.

You are a joke. I don't think Travis ever said the splatter was strictly limited to 1,000 pieces. He's avoided saying stuff like this for a while now. It's like if a band presses 500 black copies of an album for their first press, sells out, then decides to press 500 more on black. Are you really going to give them shit over something like that? Nope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MayCauseDeath Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 investment investment investment investment investment What i mean is most things people put money into is an investment. Not all appreciate in value, some depreciate over time, such as clothing. Records usually appreciate in value as time goes on. I in no way meant it in a means of greed, just that a record collection is an investment of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I click your link and it's still a dead link, probably from them hiding all the vinyl on their site still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
