karmadude Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Yeah I know.. Epic Fail on my behalf but I had no Idea it was still in stores..Just got into vinyl about 2 weeks ago and didn't know of any vinyl stores online. btw: what's a flipper? Sorry about that man, fortunately for you VC is a great place to be when you start collecting vinyl. It should help you avoid situations like this. And a "flipper" is someone who buys an album that they expect will sell out with the sole intention of reselling it immediately after for a substantial profit. In some situations it really sucks for collectors, but lots of collectors will buy doubles of albums they like in hopes of reselling one to cover the cost of the one they keep.

Hey thanks for being mature and explaining in a cool manner.. I totally see what you're saying about "flippers" Yeah VC seems like both a great store and online community.. As I stated earlier.. I just recently discovered the vinyl world, and now that I've found VC I'm sure I won't have to resort to inflated prices on ebay anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escapeplan Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Just so you guys know, I'm expecting a copy of Beggars in the mail that I'm going to put up in the for sale/trade forum at VC. It's a numbered and signed copy (dunno which color yet though). It's for Haiti relief and the person who donates $20 to a related charity (with a screenshot of the payment) gets it. Please, please, please don't photoshop the donation payment screenshot and try to pass it off as legit. It's not stealing from me, it's stealing from the desperate and needy! I can't accept PMs about it now since I wanna give some more people a shot at it. I'll post more info when I get the record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonskater Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 can anyone show me the clear green, mint green difference? also does anyone have anything in red or purple for sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llamason56 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 clear green is a emerald like green and you can see right through it mint green is a lighter green and is opaque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 I'm really happy with my mustard copy but it fucking kills me that I didn't buy the purple when I had the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 man i wanted that mustard so bad Yeah it was my first choice of the non-purples. Thinking back I just can't even fathom why I passed up an opportunity to own the rarest version of my favorite album by my favorite band for $10 more. I'm such an idiot.

evvandflow Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I got a red copy, i forget the number right now (somewhere in the 1400's)...is anyone looking to trade any other color for my red? PM me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockstar71888 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 fucking dubmaverick. he has said before that the purples were sold out, and as far as i know were the first 50 out of 1000. this one is numbered 293/1000. i can almost guarantee you, he pulled one out of the closet and switched it out with another copy http://cgi.ebay.com/THRICE-BEGGARS-LP-PURPLE-COLOR-SIGNED-BOOK-W-DOWNLOAD_W0QQitemZ130362130269QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMusic_on_Vinyl?hash=item1e5a303f5d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are limited to "50". you'll never know how many are actually out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
