rajiv56 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 definitely in all time favorites for album covert art. So excited to be able to frame and hang up the record sleeve while listening to the album itself on sweet, sweet vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brodieman2k Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Im sure these pictures will be on ebay shortly Hey Travis. If there are only 500 of these, how did you end up with one #'d in the 2000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henster311 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Also I got my personal copy of this today. Ill get some pics posted sometime today. Its a nice package and the jackets are numbered. Not sure how they are numbering these cause the one I have is 2826 the photo of the record from HT is #2826, is that how it usually works, you get the photographed one? haha, just ordered this, I'm so excited.

damianzamora Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 remember to use the half off promo code htcash15 for $30 htcash30 for $60 htcash45 for $90 htcash60 for $120 htcash75 for $150 the album is 29.99 so you will have to add something else to reach the $30 mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travis Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 Im sure these pictures will be on ebay shortly Hey Travis. If there are only 500 of these, how did you end up with one #'d in the 2000? I think they might be available from other retailers in a few months so they probably made more than 500. I didnt even know they would be numbered until I got this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpumaorn Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 thanks for the heads up on the discount, you made me spend more than i intended/wanted to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 I knew there would be more than 500 in total. They told me HT could have it exclusively for a certain amount of time since I was the one who got them to repress this. I wasnt sure exactly when everyone else would be able to sell it but now it looks like in a few months other places will have it. Im guessing there are 3000 of these based on how the one is numbered that I have. I will try to find out for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travis Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 Heads up guys, if this sells out online (which it likely will soon) I will get more to put up for sale. Dont trip if you dont get one before it sells out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rajiv56 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 You were right. Your pic was used for eBay. already that didn't take long! Hopefully instead of pressing 3000 they pressed 3011 and one of us can manage to get that 3011th copy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travis Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 So this is sold out on HT.com but I have many more on the way in case anyone's still looking for it. Will probably be back up for sale on HT.com next week. Ive been following the thread on the 311 message board about this and I know at least someone on there is on this board as well, so to answer a few questions I saw on there... Pressing info...the label is telling me there's 5000 The reason this was on 180 gram black and not on some crazy colored vinyl like Sublime or other HT exclusives is because this is what the band wanted.

kpumaorn Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 i know music is due up for a press, but are there chances of transistor being repressed? what about ST? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 i know music is due up for a press, but are there chances of transistor being repressed? what about ST? Possible. I dont know of anything going on right now for either of those though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know of anything going on right now for either of those though. Wow I'm surprised this sold so quickly online-- but I think they way over shot the demand with 5000 of these. I guess they don't really care.. Their last three albums have been readily available on vinyl since their release dates mostly for under $20. I would think the blue album would do really well since it sold 3 million copies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for answering this! I'm the one who wondered about it over on the 311 board. Thanks, too, for all the great updates and for getting some of my favorite albums pressed, too! Much appreciated! I ordered my copy of "Soundsystem" first thing Tuesday morning. Can't wait for it to arrive. The album artwork alone has me excited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
