ruben Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 DA's facebook: This Saturday, Dine Alone's online store will exclusively make City and Colour's Covers Pt. 2 7" on black or clear vinyl, as well as Brenden Benson's Diamonds 7" available for purchase at 6pm sharp. - 6pm canadian time?

Variant Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 6pm EST would be my guess. Interesting to see that the Covers pt2 BLACK was pressed less than the CLEAR version. Not by much, but I would of figured the clear would be the more rare of the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makeshiftrigger Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I wonder if you add 45 to that if it'll be the same actual pressing, just different covers...who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not by much, but I would of figured the clear would be the more rare of the two. both were 500, clear had more of an overrun. I wonder if you add 45 to that if it'll be the same actual pressing, just different covers...who knows. those 45 black were in fact test pressings. these are proper 2nd pressings.

justindinealone Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 also, any all future pressings of this are going to be black. clear is exclusive to "record store day" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydrums Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 6pm EST would be my guess. Interesting to see that the Covers pt2 BLACK was pressed less than the CLEAR version. Not by much, but I would of figured the clear would be the more rare of the two. I'd hazard a guess that they ordered 500 of each. As is common practice, you can end up with upto 10% overrun. Hence 550 clear and 536 black. Edit: Justin got in just before me haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makeshiftrigger Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'm trying to make myself feel better about that /45 and you keep crushing my hopes and dreams!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justindinealone Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'm trying to make myself feel better about that /45 and you keep crushing my hopes and dreams!!! doesnt it help you that its considered a test pressing and not a standard variant?

makeshiftrigger Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 It does but worse that I've never had the chance to get outbid or beat to one. They're all hidden! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variant Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'm happy some board members are getting the VIP packages! I'm going to try and make the packaging as awesome as I can for these! Curious if there is any update on this yet? Referring to the Niagara show coming up in June. I may wager a guess/wish and say it's a test press for thirst or something similar. Excited to see the details/artwork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serravalle Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 doesnt it help you that its considered a test pressing and not a standard variant? It does for me..... but still kills that I don't have it (especially seeing as HCYAANAM is my favourite C&C cover). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcarn Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 It does but worse that I've never had the chance to get outbid or beat to one. They're all hidden! I've been thinking about saying 'screw the variants, just keep one' .. $$ would be of use at the moment. I would probably start with selling this on ebay, but I'm so attached to it I think the starting bid would be offensive. But alas I've sold 2 boxsets and an extra AOF S/T and now I'm back on the gotta get em all side of the fence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makeshiftrigger Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 you may be in luck here http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-art-collectibles-City-and-Colour-VIP-Poster-Vinyl-Laminate-SIGNED-Sept-12-2012-W0QQAdIdZ467992078 I tried messaging the seller but got no response perhaps you will get somewhere. Thank you, just did. I'm sure some other people on here and especially some girl trying to get this before me will all be trying as well but here's hoping! First time I've ever seen it besides never being able to coax Variant out of his copy for a stupid amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variant Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Someday soon I might be in the same mindset Gcarn is...sell it all and maybe keep a copy or two of the ones I enjoyed the most. I've been thinking of it recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makeshiftrigger Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 You remember me! It's the only test I may be able to afford. At least the Sometimes, BMYL and LH tests were well passed what I could've afforded at the time, didn't feel bad about those. Wish I could find a sleeping sickness test though, I love that record and the cover, and since him playing that with Gord was the first song I saw them play live in a way too expensive trip to Chicago, holds a special spot for me. Plus there were only like 300 people at the small venue, it was perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love sleeping sickness as well...and i almost pulled the trigger on this one when I saw it: http://www.ebay.com/itm/281073104469?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 It originally went up and I was talking to the seller and they were looking at $1800. Then it went down to $1200...then it popped up for bidding with no reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know Ken was a visual artist too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud87 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I remember Ken had those up for like $500 or something first and it didn't sell/he took it down. Then he made an auction and I was going to bid on it but the reserve was way too high. Wonder who has it now? Also wonder who on earth spent $1200 on those super bundles. Seems like no-one here did.

blanchardoswald Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I spent more on the original O'Brother artwork that those people spent on the CAC artwork. Goddamn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
