jonnywreck Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I'd like another one just to own it, not flip it. On one hand I'd like to think that if I don't buy another someone who really wants one will end up with it, but the reality is that most people who buy something like this will probably sell it for tons more. How is this a reality? The amount of time spent trying to figure out when the next sale will go up to buy simply one of each at a time is not worth flipping, in my opinion. I mean, I could be wrong, but it just seems like too much effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I could be wrong, but it just seems like too much effort. But if you think about it, $35 and a little planning for a potential $200 on eBay IS worth it. Every time. I just want one for myself. Actually I want two. A black and a green but whatever. I'll take what I can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nothingnatural Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 First Electra up on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/190815430052 That's the same prick that listed his right after the first ones went up (he then quickly took it down). I was hoping that cocksmokers order would have gotten cancelled. Oh well, maybe someone will keep screwing over his auction. I got both my copies today. They're pretty much near perfect and I'm beyond happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnywreck Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Well fuckin' a, I guess I was proven wrong. Who the fuck has the time to do this sort of shit? I collect on a purely personal level and it's a bitch and a half to get the majority of records I want. More power to him, I guess, but why not just get a real job? Edit: Post is referring to flipping these things. Seriously seems like such a waste of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 He's not sending those out. Really? I thought I read that he was going to unwarp and reseal all of them and wouldn't know what color it was going to be. I don't remember reading anything about straight up not sending them out.

I don't remember reading anything about straight up not sending them out. From the You'd Prefer An Astronaut listing on website's store: Sorry, but black vinyl only. I know the green ones are cool but only have a few and am keeping those at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mameeshkamowskwoz Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 I can almost taste that copy of Electra 2000... Do you say that because you have it in your mouth and it doesn't have a flavor or because you anticipate having one that you intend to lick in hopes of it having a flavor?

orangesix Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Electra 2000 prints looks amazing. I was going to post a picture but we already know what it looks like. Mine came a bit bent but the record and sleeve look brand new. I still prefer You'd Prefer an Astronaut, but its nice to finally have both of them on vinyl.

mameeshkamowskwoz Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 Uh, the latter I suppose. Cool... good luck to you. I got an Electra the first go round and it looks and sounds amazing... especially the print for that one. I'm gonna try my luck for an Astronaut tonight.
