collectivemike Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 EDIT: This thread doesn't really make sense anymore seeing as he deleted the original post... Hand numbered 3/10 message me if interested. Never played Hey man - I was going to bite my tongue, but after seeing you re-list this a few times and eBay and now putting it on here, I have to say something. I put this record out... and when I gave out test presses they were meant as a bonus for fans who had supported John, the label, and myself. They were meant to go to people who would actually appreciate and enjoy them, not go to someone who would within 24 hours throw it up on eBay for $100 buy it now. The overwhelming majority (read: everyone else) appreciated this giveaway for what it was, not for it's cash potential. To be fair, I don't know your financial situation or the reason(s) why you've been trying to flip this record so incessantly, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Rather than trying desperately to sell it at an extremely inflated prices (which thankfully hasn't happened yet), I'm going to offer to take it back from you, so I can send it to someone who actually wants it. I'll send you $50 right now if you mail it back to me tomorrow. Trust me, you won't get anywhere NEAR that on eBay or on this website. Let me help you out, and also help someone else who wanted this record but wasn't able to get it. Send me your email, I'll have the money in your Paypal within 24 hours. -Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secondratehero Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Well there goes my offer of $25 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collectivemike Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 interesting. how can one say no to that? Been watching the auction for a while... I think it's been re-listed three times, starting at $80 with a BIN for $100. I've gotten a bunch of emails asking if there were any left, so its frustrating to continue to see this same record being pushed over and over.

kforkevin777 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Man, I'd love to have a test I don't have to pay out the ass for. With the exception of my Ghastly City Sleep test, but three people in the world know them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes they are taking a shot and just checking it out. Not everyone is going to like it and will probably end up selling it at some time or other. Just my 2 cents. It sucks to do something good hearted though and that kindness be pretty much taken advantage of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got two projects in the works now... not sure exactly when I'll put up the PO because I want to have everything as close to finished as possible before taking orders. I'll definitely have something up within a month or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
