It is understood that OLDER and/or rare or out of print or production memorabilia goes up in value. That being said, we are not an auction site...there are auction sites out there. Naturally it would be preferred that you love every item you have and never want to part with it because it's so special to you.

But, if someone has an item and has to part with it and asks their fellow Ten Club members 'if you're interested, send me a PM.' That's a private matter and not an auction...unless there are constant threads from the same person saying that and it looks like flipping and/or they have a side business going on. Then it's not ok. Don't do it. There will be a penalty.

It's ok to post that you're looking for an item. Given To Fly (live) is quiet right now because the band isn't on tour. Just remember what the SPIRIT OF SHARING memorabilia with your fellow Ten Club members is about. People have always been generous, sharing traded tapes, offering extras of something, even giving away extra tix when they have them. It's about our COMMUNITY here...and taking care of each other.

If you have a specific question about an item you're looking to share on the board and aren't sure about something, just write to us (Kat and Sea) and we'll let you know if you're on the right track.

Thanks! (sorry it's so long...this should cover it all)

P.S. Flipping is buying items (from Ten Club or merch booth, etc.) with the intent to resell for a profit. Don't do it. Someone outside of the U.S. asked for the definition.

Well put.

Hopefully your side framing business here will be able to continue

About frickin' time. Love the part about the community.... it ain't dead. :P

Please leave this sticky up so fans can find it and oh, may I suggest adding a link in either the FAQ or posting guidelines page?

Thanks, Kat & Sea. :wave:

I love that "flipping" now also consists of purchasing stuff from THE MERCH BOOTH at shows with the intent to sell it for a profit. Give me a break. I can see how they don't want people to advertise that on THIS site... but Ten Club cannot control what members or non-members buy and/or sell from the concerts which they attend in person. Kind of silly. Plus, knowing what some of us have to spend just to travel to a section of the country where Pearl Jam is actually playing... well I think we should be able to buy whatever we want with the intent to sell it from the merch booth to make up for some of the hundreds of dollars it takes us just to GET to the show!

No offense Ten Club, but isn't $35 for a t-shirt at the shows kind of its own kind of flipping? :roll:

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?"



Of course 10club can't control what member's or non-member's can do but this forum, http://community.pearljam.com/ , is for paying Pearl Jam 10club members only! If you are paying a yearly 10club membership, buying up goods @ the merchandise table & here @ the 10club goods section (and any where's else) and you're only motive for buying up all those goods is to sell, advertise & make a profit more then what you paid for it each day, week, month, year .. on an Official Pearl Jam Message Board, then yes, that is what you call flipping. If you want to sell your stuff go right ahead. Nobody got a gun to your head(s). Ever heard of advertising outside the Official Pearl Jam Message Board? Or heard of a yard sale? Buying a booth @ a flea market? On another Message Board where it's not an Official Pearl Jam CO run? Sell it on eBay or Craig List or any other means .. away from advertising on an Official Pearl Jam Paying Message Board? Cause that leads to the dark side and your 10club membership revoked.

so is this allowed on the " Given To Fly " section now ? ,
and just for shits and giggles , why cant there be a dedicated section on the forums for such activity ?

joe2468

what about trading your next set of tickets to a concert for a BENNY VINYL BOX ???? would that be ok ?

I don't think it would work, if trading is for equal value. A 2 pair of 10club ticket's sell for what $169 US reg price in the 10club goods section. Benaroyal Hall Vinyl sold for in the 10club goods section for ..



It won't work.

So exactly how long may we use the Given to Fly forum to trade?

I'm confused....so we can sell anything we want, just need to list prices and no ebay links? and put them in the given to fly section?

pdalowsky

Like Kev says, just bring your rare promos over to www.pjcollectors.com - we'll gladly take them off you

and bring your posters over to blackredyellow.com....

and your vinyl - go to ebay.

I just wish they would sell the last tour's t-shirts. I don't get why they don't do that since all it does is create a market for it on e-bay. Every other band does this.

Can someone help me out with the rules here?

I'm not flipping anything. But I need to get to Bridge School. I've got several posters from shows I attended, that I was going to frame and hang and I'm kinda over the idea of that now. I don't by any means consider this flipping posters....but what is the official word? I'd like to sell them, maybe as a package, there are about ten of them, purchased over the last five years or so. Once I figure out if it's an okay thing to do then I can give more specifics. Anyone wanna clear up the rules for me? Or officially define "flipping" please?

Thanks

the official word is this: if you put anything on Ebay without a reserve or minimum bid and let anyone know about it here on the board by creating a thread on the PORCH and you are fool-hearted enough to post a link to your Ebay auction (thus letting the market determine its true value) you will be called a flipper by various board members as well as the admin of the very site you pay money to be a part of...even if the term's definition DOES NOTmatch what you are doing......

Just put yer shit on Ebay and don't tell anyone about it here....you will still sell them for fair market value...otherwise, you may post your posters for sale in GTF on the forum and simply name your price...for now, that is not a capital crime


Now, if you would read the very first post on this very topic posted by KAT, you would see this at the bottom of it...
