tkprtyrhd Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I'm still looking for a copy of this if anyone's still floating extras around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrangerwithcandy Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Ebay fees would cancel out the "couple of bucks over." A couple more than that and it's basically flipping it. Even though I do believe the people here that are buying extra copies for others are really doing it to help fellow collectors, you can't deny there's bit of self gain involved. They are the ones truly getting "a couple bucks for the trouble" and points towards a 15% discount on their next purchase. There's some sort of profit involved, it should be considered flipping also. I'm not saying people shouldn't be doing it, because it is cool to help those less fortunate in grabbing a copy at price or even at all, just saying some people are: a) fucking hypocrites crying over shit that can't and won't be stopped. I'm going to have to disagree with you, I bought 6 copies, 1 for myself and 5 for members. Ask anyone, I've charged 26 bucks total ppd, the album was around 22 with tax and 4 for shipping within the US and inbetween 33-35 to ship to Canada only because I'm not sure how much shipping to Canada is. As I've said with every customer I'll refund you what ever is left over even if it's a 1.25, after paypal fees I'm literally breaking even. Of the 4 I've purchased at HT (the store) I have 82 dollars in my paypal account after spending $89. However, yes, I have 29,367 HT points but I have no clue what they do or why I have them. If you ship to Canada USPS it's going to run $11-13 for first class. If you go for Priority it's somewhere in the range of $28-30. If you're looking to get a tracking number I'd go for UPS, it's around $20, but there's a fucking ton of paper work that you have to fill out. I just had to ship two LP's out so yeah... Juss' sayin.

mdb Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Looks like this guy accidentally listed BIN instead of starting bid: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&hash=item4ab4ae0dca&item=320858885578&nma=true&pt=Music_on_Vinyl&rt=nc&si=i4Qg0Z8wulNwAe5qtOXp51d9Ec8%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc Hahaha! What are the odds he actually ships it? Honestly, I think people really overestimated the ebay value of these and way too many people tried to enter the flipping game. Of course there were a few suckers at the beginning, but by the time everyone gets their 5 copies delivered, I think these will be going for under $30.

I don't think so, unless he had a different account and bought it right away. Scroll down here and you'll see it sold for BIN .99: http://www.ebay.com/csc/i.html?_nkw=thrice+artist+record&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=See-All-Categories&_okw=thrice+artist+record&_oexkw=&_adv=1&LH_Complete=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=200&_fpos=Zip+code&_fsct=&LH_SALE_CURRENCY=0&_sop=12&_dmd=1&_ipg=50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecodyconrad Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I've got one more AITA, price + shipping, if not it's going back to my mall in Albany and someone can grab it there. Pm'd!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I didn't think I would be bothered by the pixelated cover, but holy shit it's even worse once you see it in person. I can't believe anyone would put their name behind that shotty cover job. I'll listen to this copy for now but pray that the next repress fixes this abomination.

blanchardoswald Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Travis should try to get a bunch of extra covers printed. I would pay a few extra bucks to fix this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baran26 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Travis should try to get a bunch of extra covers printed. I would pay a few extra bucks to fix this. Seconded. Love the vinyl itself in this pressing, don't know that I'd need to be the next repress when really all I want is the jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecodyconrad Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 If anyone has an extra copy let me know. All my local Hot Topics are sold out and I was on tour when they went up so I missed out. So bummed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbrh2001 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Now that the dust has settled on this, would another re-press of 1,000 even come close to selling out? Seems like tons can be found now near cost... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dejadevilgod Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Personally I think the current prices on ebay are just because its being overflooded, once more get sold/bought from sellers by people who plan to keep them and not sell, prices will stabilize , I assume at around 40$ before the next press comes out and then drop from there, as the first press goes for about 80-90.

mikeypaine Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Anyone still looking for this? I've got an extra, 30ppd. EDIT: Sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it'll probably take longer than an hour. But I mean, they'll definitely all move. It's not like it'll be 2015 and HT will have boxes of them laying around for lack of interest.
