    I have a mini promotional basketball (about the size of a tennis ball), but that's it. Never saw the rest of the package.
    With man gone, will there be hope for Gorilla?

    what is the Ten promo basketball set? I though you were talking about the basketball vinyl..

    no, not the vinyl, that I have.

    Its a mini actual basketball set with the pearl jam logo all over it.....

    to a non collector it probably looks rubbish, but as a collector, I'm mad keen on securing it.....its basically plastic with a few small balls for your desktop

    hehe i love when collectors search for that one thing that'll make em happy. Funny thing is....people told me that I would die before I"d ever find a Reeenk Roink, boy were they shocked just as much as I was when I found one. haha

    Good luck.

    I have an iron-on patch that matches the picture disc. I tried to get the local independent record store to get me the disc and the B-Ball set for more than a year and they could never get ahold of a copy. This was shortly after Ten came out. Good luck to you but I have a feeling no one is going to be willing to part with these collectibles.

    im dying to know what a "Reeenk Roink" is?
    Empty pockets will allow a greater sense of wealth.
    Why contain yourself like any other book on the shelf?

    Subtle voices in the wind hear the truth they're telling.
    A world begins where the road ends.
    Watch me leave it all behind.

    Im doing alright, no more collecting for me I don't think, not much left, and not much I have desires to want....maybe just those spanish 7" and the 12" promo's of alive/even flow...but no rush to get those.

    More into boutique guitars/amps/pedals these days...how bout you?

    a reeenk roink is the name given to the extremely rare demo version of Ten released by the band to radio stations with their custom hand made artworks...the disc had no printing on and can only be identified either by handwriting on them and certainly by it having one of only two known matrix numbers. Legend has it they are limited to less than 50 - there are many fakes around but if you have a genuine one you have a serious collectors item.
