thebiglebowski Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I don't mean one copy each of so many different variants. I mean has anyone ever targeted a record that was say /25 and tried to collect as many of those 25 as possible (or any other size pressing)?

I also own every pressing of Ted Nugent's "Cat Scratch Fever"...ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keevhren Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 someone on b9 has done this with some hardcore band... like american nightmare or something, and has managed to get 14 or 15 total out of like 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
againstmeathead Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 good that you managed to collect all 6 copies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youarethere Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 This would be slightly excessive/a waste of money imo. But people can spend their money on whatever they want, I guess it doesn't matter to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adambomb Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 at one time I had 3 of the 8 test presses for the Kid Dynamite /88 fingers louie split. I was gunning for all of them, then I realized it was kinda pointless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostatsea Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I would imagine that this would be crazy hard. I would think that the other holders of records say out of /25, 50etc would be hard pressed to get rid of their copies. I know I wouldn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmoney Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 wow, i know a lot of people that go for color variations or all releases, but ALL of a pressing? seems a little greedy if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mynameisdan Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 i've thought about this... not to the point of doing it, but i was imagining what it would be like to own like 10,000 copies of thriller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmoney Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 my baby brother (20 years ago) broke my copy of thriller in the kitchen. threw it up in the air and CRASH! a hundred pieces. come to think of it that was probably one of my first records... need to add that to my want list!!

melikecheese Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 weird I was thinking about this yesterday! My thoughts were that I buy all 50 or 100 of a pressing you really limit supply, then sell them one by one for big money, biiiiig money!

mxv Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I owned the entire pressing of every record I released on my label until I gave the band their copies and then sold the rest I do own 2% of the pressing of Jawbreaker/Jawbox double 7" with handpainted blank sides as there were 100 of them and I have 2.
