16RPM Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'd dig a test set too - just for the sheer uniqueness of it. It's rad that Todd is selling/giving them away. I used to pester him for Screeching Weasel tests back in the Selfless days. I also used to buy the Ramones covers right from him to ensure colored vinyl. Ah, memories! Haven't sold a single set of these test pressings. Just had to ask for the postage for one of the sets that went to Canada... Holy shit, $37.00 was as cheap as it was getting, and this was without the actual printed box all the LP's will come in,, Cheers, Todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
16RPM Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 there are 15 sets. if im not mistaken theyre all gone. i could be wrong though.

maneatingcow Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 D'oh! You snooze; you lose. I'm sure the Ebay will have these soon enough, someone is going to get wooed by fat stacks of cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RustyShackelford Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I can't imagine one of these selling. The people thy got them are true fans. I know I would never let mine go. It's too great. Todd is the man! When I got my tests on the 1st he sent me a blank box that was just a holder for them. A "demo" box if you will. I went ahead and painted it so it looks nice on my shelf. Can't wait to see the real one(s) next to it. tittus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decker27 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'm sure somebody will get greedy and sell it for a ton of cash! All I know is when I get my set its not leaving my sight! Loosing these records once was shitty enough! You won't be able to pay me enough to part with my boxset!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nothingnatural Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I know this really isn't the place for this but I'm gonna say it anyway.... I have a test pressing of the original version of Shit Out of Luck. It comes with the two silk screened cloth pieces exactly the same as the ones used for the tour edition. Anyways, if anyone's interested, it's definitely available for trade (no sales, sorry). I'm currently looking for any Melvins stuff I don't have or anything listed in my sig. I would also be willing to look over tradelists as well. I was just going to list this in my 'for trade' thread that I'm eventually going to make but I figured I'd throw it out there in this thread too.
