Number11 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I remember it lasting the better part of a day, but many good folks have told me it was sold out in under an hour. However, JP will have double Drive's pressing easily. Especially when. You factor in the extra 1k ambers. On top of that, pretty much all copies pressed will be sold directly through Mondo. This will definitely not sell out as quick as Drive did. According to Discogs, there were 4500 copies of Drive pressed including randomly inserted pink vinyl versions. If Drive had more than five times more records pressed than version b of JP does and sold out in under an hour, the amber JP should sell out crazy fast... Is there a flaw in this reasoning? A good amount would have been sent to record stores and other online retailers. edit: re-reading the blog.. is version B the web exclusive? Or are both versions web exclusives?

They aren't comparable. The Amber JP will be mainly an event exclusive, so by the time they hit the internet most will be long gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgoodtobefree Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Oh so there won't be 1000 copies put up online. I see. That sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where in the blog post does it say that? It doesn't even say which version you'll be able to buy at the listening party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whip Wilson Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 ms Where in the blog post does it say that? It doesn't even say which version you'll be able to buy at the listening party.A quick visit from Mo would put this to bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanyrecords Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Forgive me if this was answered but how many copies does mondo let you buy at once? I'm considering gambling for that sweet variant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seamoney Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Forgive me if this was answered but how many copies does mondo let you buy at once?

Family Friendly Rap God Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I think you're underestimating Mondo flippers. We just saw Bad Timing Records sell out a pressing in less than 5 minutes. Mondo will smash that. I want the Amber variant but I honestly just want one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbrh2001 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Does anyone now if theyve announced how many of the random variant they are pressing? It's 1/3 of the total run of "version A" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbrh2001 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 How long do we got until the drop? About a month and a 1/2? Anyone else have the feeling this thread is gonna be littered in redundancy from now until drop day? Gonna be extremely similar to the Mondo Drive OST release. :puts gun in mouth, pulls trigger: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say "most" of the 1000 will be gone. Maybe 1/3. They're only having a listening party. There's no way they draw the kinds of crowds their gallery events do.

There shouldn't be any gamble. Anyone who is too slow to grab the variant should have plenty of time to get the regular. I'd bet they pressed AT LEAST 3k of those.

Unless they're holding it somewhere else, I couldn't see people waiting in line for hours just to grab a single variant copy that might net someone $50 on a flip, just isn't worth people's time I'm sure. Plus with a run /1000, I'd doubt Mondo pro-flippers are really sweating the online drop. Should be a breeze for those who know what they're doing.
