topshelfsquad Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 In our six and a half years of being a label, we've basically hoarded all of our stuff in a temperature controlled storage unit.

heresyourletter Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Didn't realize the first pressing of Into It/Over It - Twelve Towns on Translucent Gold was so rare. I picked it up at Hot Topic for like 8 bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anchorclose Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Didn't realize the first pressing of Into It/Over It - Twelve Towns on Translucent Gold was so rare. I picked it up at Hot Topic for like 8 bucks. Same here; really surprised to see it going for that much already. So many of these are gonna go for an enormous amount...there's a bunch of solid records that I would love to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xspinzx Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Hopefully I can grab most of those IIOI tests for my collection. I will probably get snipped snd get extremely pissed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trifornais Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 This is going to get expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serum7 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Hopefully I can grab most of those IIOI tests for my collection. I will probably get snipped snd get extremely pissed though. I'll take lots of pics so you can enjoy them. I kid, the only one I really want is the Twelve Towns to go with my IIOI/KOJI and Proper ones. Probably going to be too rich for my blood though.

spoonbill Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I thought Into it Over It "Twelve Towns" was limited to 100 on Cream and 200 on Black. Didn't the pressing plant mess up? I seem to remember getting a note with my cream lp. e.g. it was supposed to be /100 Black and /200 Cream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember getting a note with my cream lp. e.g. it was supposed to be /100 Black and /200 Cream. Yeah, this is a typo and the item description has been edited. There are a few typos but I'm pretty sure this is the only one that related to the quantity/variant of the release. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faceghost Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I bought that same IIOI record at Hot Topic today for 7 bucks. What a score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xspinzx Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I'm pretty content with the few things I won. Bummed I didn't have the extra funds to bid harder on those IIOI test. Oh well, I will grab them one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
