    I completely understand. Maybe you can negotiate a little bit with him though. $1500 isn't bad and maybe he'll come down. Good luck. I'll keep looking for you as well!

    Credit card? Seems like you've been after one for years now - might be worth making monthly payments on something you've been wanting that long?

    I'm only looking for an open one to spin. I would never buy a sealed one for that much and then open it and spin it!

    So what you're saying is you'd have issues removing a $500-900 plastic wrapper? :lol:

    Benaroya Hall vinyl is the most overrated and ridiculous thing in the entire Pearl Jam world... $1,000 for a record? Fucking laughable dude

    Keep the money in your pocket, I will send you my CD for free if you really want it. It's the exact same show, same mastering, same everything... Benny wasnt mastered for vinyl.... they took the exact same digital file from the cd and pressed it to wax... you are literally paying $1,000 for a large black cd 

    Seriously. Keep your money. 

    I own this set and it sounds absolutely amazing on vinyl.
    The sound of the room is captured very well in my opinion.
    If you ever get a chance it's a must have.
    Id buy another if the reissued it but would it sound the same?
    If someone made me an offer I couldn't refuse it it be hard to say no...
    Great sounding album all round good luck fella!

    It was actually mastered for Vinyl.  Whether it was done in the best possible way is debatable, but things have changed drastically in the course of the last 14 years in the industry in respect to vinyl.  It is not black.  It is also not worth $1,000, except for the fact that people have paid 3x that.

    It is not simply a digital file from the cd pressed to wax.  
    His eminence has yet to show.

    Do you know what the best part of my day is? It's the 3 seconds before I click on this thread that I think, "today's the day whoyouare72 got his Benny.  No goodbyes, no 'I got one...." I click just hoping he left the thread to go listen to his new Benny on vinyl, without saying a word." I don't know much, but I know that.

    As a former owner, I can attest to this set's magical qualities! One of the best sounding records I have ever owned!

    There was just an auction that ended on eBay for an opened but never played Benny. It ended at $1,025. I hope that extra $25 wasn't a breaking point for you and that you are the person that won the item.

    I realize I'm being too fussy at this point but that one with the wear and the corner ding was not worth over $1,000 in my opinion but what does my opinion matter? I'll probably never get one at this rate

    No, not if you let that one go on eBay without even bidding to $1,000.  I was shocked it stayed that low.  :o


    That was a CLEAN, opened copy......not even played.

    Nah, get it like you like it man. If you're shelling out $1k, you have the right to be patient and wait for a better copy to show up.

    Sold for $1250.  Heck of a deal for a sealed original historical masterpiece.
