dreamover Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 by the way, how does 'define' sound in this set? i would think squishing that whole record onto a single LP is a bit much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tons of people on the board missed out and this guy got two copies but is already taking "offers" and it just went up for sale 24 min ago.

Then say you're selling at cost = which NEVER means selling it for literally what you paid for it. Regular VC members know this. If someone snags extras and is willing to sell "at cost" we ALWAYS compensate with a little extra for the favor/effort. But when you upfront say "selling to best offer"...immediate negative connotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like the source code lied to that other guy hah. What's the total pressing number for each of these? 2700-ish? Less than 20 of each is crazy, if so.

Why did they not just do a wide release of this and make bank? Obviously there are a ton of people still looking for this on vinyl. I don’t think this reunion is them fishing for money... there’s so many things they could be doing to cash in, but the fact is they pressed this for the fans and they’ve been touring somewhat modestly, even opening for BMTH on the American Nightmare run. Just my thought though, I wish these would get a black repress cause idk if I want to spin the copy I just got Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominic_ Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Yeah, I don't give a fuck what pressing it is, I just want em. I'm in high school, let me bump the appropriate angst soundtrack on a hipster format goddamnit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm saying is a lot of people want this and don't have it. Simple supply and demand. I'd be more than willing to pay the $40 for this especially if it helps the band.

They did press 2700 but they sold all of those in the presale for the tour and on the first dates of both the world and american tour. They found a box set aside for returns or warped records at Merchline that are now leftovers and they had less than 20 of each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah I didn’t think you were, I just feel like maybe they have something special in store for the future with these two. They’re doing something with TCOT according to the site, didn’t know that till today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be interesting to see if/how they're numbered, considering they were leftovers. I can see the flippers now- "rare unnumbered copy! $500 plz."

The Saint Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 I mean, yeah, I'm no computer whiz. I just know how to check inventory numbers in Chrome. Couldn't tell you what the rest of the shit means. Has it lied to me before? No. Maybe there was less than 20 of each? That only makes it shittier that that guy got 2.

You know some people give records as gifts right? They could be looking out for a friend at work too. You can't always assume the worst. If your friend bought 2 and gifted you the other one you'd be stoked. It's an exception but it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm specifically talking about the guy that got two and immediately said he would sell it to someone for a profit.
