    I don't understand the appeal. I know the history, but come on.

    Thats high.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    That is a ridiculous price. I don't understand why anyone would want it that badly (I will be really surprised if it sells).

    I would rather have a paper sleeve version. The frame job is nice, but not something I would do with my Reeenk.

    Would love to own one of these but no way I'm blowing that much money on that.
    Not during Pearl Jam Tour season.

    If $2,500 is crazy then what's a legitimate price for this rarity?

    I think it does actually match. It's just hard to tell because it's in all caps. But if you compare some of the letters to the caps that are on the others, they match.

    Whatever someone is willing to pay! I'd just be shocked if anyone would want to pay that much. Crazier things have happened of course! I guess it's not that big a deal if you're a RICH Pearl Jam fan!

    Seems odd to me that it's all in caps unlike the others and the capital J on the ebay one matches none of the capuital J's on the collector page. I wonder if someone had a legit blank version and just added the writing for some reason.

    The capital R's don't match either.

    I think the "TEN" and the Rs and the Ks and Ns match perfectly, and the J looks close enough but slightly warped, which just leads me to think that writing on a curve made him fuck up the J a tiny bit. Pretty sure that handwriting is legit (not that I'm an expert!). I don't know what the writing on the actual discs looks like on others anyway. It's all paper sleeves in that other photo.

    Not really seeing the Rs matching perfectly. They look completely different to me, but I'm no expert either.

    Wait, whose writing is whose? Isn't the one Eddie's and the other Jeff's? :think:

    What about the mirrored J? PearႱ Jam?

    Is that Ed's writing or Jeff's writing?

    Plus all the one's posted over @ pj.collectors.com are all listed in big / small cased letters. This is all in caps.

    I don't think that's meant to be a mirrored J. Just a lazy L. Yeah, I think the writing isn't as questionable as the all caps are.... but all the RRs were different, so that doesn't mean much of anything either! Has this thing been authenticated? lol.
