Plarocks Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Just now, Roandy55 said: People are already paying £75 for this on ebay. Someone has also put a Gold up at £75. NOT for THAT price. There are lots of Pumpkins fans out there, though. If the “black” sounds good, that will be fine. I do wonder IF I win the GITD “lucky dip,” whether I could swap for a clear in the future.

timsimmons Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Why does everyone want the GITD over the gold? Both are just as limited. One will be guaranteed upon pre-order, and one will sound better than the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satan Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Fun fact, I have some GITD that sound far superior than other pressings. Have fun shitting all over each other. Plarocks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bungie Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 So let's see...you guys bought it because you wanted gold right? Noooo..it was because you thought you were sitting on a gold mine by getting one of 500? Not saying what they did was right, but do you guys actually listen to the music or just put the records away because you think you're gonna make money off them one of these days? youspinmeround, Dusted_By_Space, skidroje and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I bought this edition because it was limited to 500. I also have the Teargarden 7" singles limited to 250. Does that mean I bought them to flip? No; I bought them to collect. Some people are fans of the band and actually collect records. My avatar is Billys Big Muff pedal with the Siamese Dream settings. Regardless, bait and switch is still not right and for that I'm upset jrodan, faaip de oiad and pepperonigin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faaip de oiad Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 This is fucking lame! Wow! How fucking deceitful! I'm fucking cancelling order. I fuckin bought the whole lot! I wonder what Billy would think if he heard about this! I feel swindled. 1 hour ago, bungie said: So let's see...you guys bought it because you wanted gold right? Noooo..it was because you thought you were sitting on a gold mine by getting one of 500? Yes bungee I bought it because it was limited. I also happen to like the few songs I've heard from that album. That's already 3/8 of the album that I've heard and I like. Do I collect Smashing Pumpkins memorabilia? Yes that's what collectors do with limited editions. Some people are actually fans of them...

I bought a copy of every edition that's been offered so far b/c I am a fan as well. And yet, I'm not all butthurt about it and cancelling my order out of principal or whatever. That's bullshit. Folks either wanted the gold because they collect SP or they didn't because they thought it was limited and might be worth something later or was planning to flip it right off the bat. To come into the thread and boohoo about what they did/didn't do (could have been bait/switch? could have been an honest error in the listing?) and state that you cancelled your order just screams that it was purchased under other pretenses. I don't give a shit though. I think it's hilarious! It's a $23 gold record I can add to my SP collection. Woo. kannibal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
