kevl Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 In my internet travels today I came upon Gilead selling test presses in their webstore. I figured someone here might be interested. http://www.gileadmedia.net/store/ I've lurked here for about a year or so and was surprised when I went to post and didn't have an account. I'll probably be posting a lot now that I'm actually registered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did look though. if i had 20 bucks i would definitely pick up that ...of sinking ships test press. Yeah, I said the same thing. Being broke sucks, especially when it comes to vinyl.

translatingthename Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 i don't get what the point of having a test press is. Is it just from a rarity standpoint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtw88 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 so want both those mwY, even had them in in the cart and everything, but Paypal won't let me spend more than $30 and I just know they're both gonna be gone before I can raise my spending limit. How about I swipe these now and sell them to you for $100 each when you have more money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hairgrowth2001 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 It is because of the rarity. only 5-10 are pressed usually and it is nice to add it on to my collection. This cancer conspiracy will be the first test press I own, but if it would have cost more, I probably would have passed on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk0nuggets Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I picked up the Cancer Conspiracy test too. I would like the approved MWY tests, but I can't afford it right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatlinemole Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 there's only 4 available for order on each release... but they're all still showing! are these not selling? 50bones is quite a bit for the mwY, but i'm still thinking of picking it up...

gileadbot Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 They went for like 60-65 when they were on ebay. Exactly, I'm betting most of the kids buying these want to flip them anyway. Unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gileadbot Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Thanks to folks who aren't buying these to flip. I wanted to make the prices lower than ebay, but high enough that people wouldn't buy them just to flip. I don't know. I hope collectors that want them, get them.

monk0nuggets Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Thanks for offering them up dude. I really wish you had a couple MOTA tests, but I'm happy with a Cancer Conspiracy test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
