    This happens with Amazon all the time. Things that are not really available get listed because all they need is a product code and release date, factual or not. Just a few weeks ago they listed Courtney Love's memoir on their site with a description and release date and a day later it was taken down after they found out all that information was premature and incorrect.

    Not saying this is a 10C exclusive, but I'd be weary of anything like this being fulfilled on Amazon.[/quote]
    Thats why I hedged my bets and ordered here as well :-D I learned not to place too much faith in amazon a long time ago.
    It would have been better if the 10cs details were at little less sketchy.

    THIS ITEM HAS SOLD OUT.

    THIS ITEM HAS SOLD OUT.

    THIS ITEM HAS SOLD OUT.

    THIS ITEM HAS SOLD OUT.

    Good thing I have TWO vinyl copies of this already (1st pressing! oh hold on, bonus pressing...) , and downloaded the all of the FOUR of the digital versions that came with the preorder. There was also ONE Mp3 coupon in the original LB vinyl.

    2+4+1 = 7 That's my "Sevens" box set.

    As far as audiophiles go...I cant tell the difference between the WAV and the FLAC or lossless Apple version. The backgrounds sound dead quiet. The MP3, well, it's a effing MP3.
    Turns out both the vinyl records, for some reason still sound exactly like vinyl records. I personally think there may be a very subtle different mix on the LP, but what do I know? Dont get me wrong...the artwork on the original LB LP is killer...

    As far as stoke factor, I preferred the Leg 1 Bootleg availability announcement, much more than the opportunity to spend 65 dollars on repackaged stuff I already have.

    I'd take Worcester, Worcester, Charlottesville over a bunch of 45s ANY DAY.

    For those that got one, good for you, you have PJ on your mind even on Sunday, or are just lucky or bored enough to check your email on Sundays. (fyi, that is me)

    For those that didn't buy and don't care...good for you, your satisfied with the current situation you have the LB vinyl already and you don't need another version of the album.

    For those that think this is a money grab, you don't have to buy, end of story, or are you bitter you missed out?

    For the folks that missed out and are mad at 10C for not giving you a heads up, why? This isn't an everyone gets a participation ribbon type of world, get over it.

    For folks complaining about and stalking flippers, please stop the stalking of the sellers, yes that takes one more copy from the true fans but thats only a handful of copies that will hit ebay. The flippers are opportunistic folks who see that the supply and demand for PJ stuff is a hot commodity, I bet they only have the membership to grab limited stuff, has worked in the past I'm sure.

    People still get mad at flippers? Lol

    It is the 10c that has perfected the art of milking the cow and stoking artificial hype for merchandise and there is nothing wrong with that since they realize they could put "limited edition" on a pair of old boxer shorts and it will sell out in an hour

    Nobody here should bitch. Yesterday morning, at around 7:33 AM EST, Demetrios posted, viewtopic.php?f=4&t=223998
    This should have given people a heads up just out of curiosity. The 10Club email blast went out 5 1/2 hours later. So for so many of you that check the forum often from around the world, and I'm sure there are a shitload of you, people had plenty of time before they went beddy bye. Oh, and with today's technology you could set an email alert on your smartphone when you get an email. Instead of starting a petition, why don't people start a list to personally text each other when something gets released unexpectedly? Plenty of peeps do it over at EB when prints/posters get dropped at odd hours for different time zones.

    I think anyone who got shut out has every right to bitch. Not everybody checks this board every day and not every constantly checks their email. I really can't understand why so many items are released as limited editions. In this case, the Ten Club clearly knew they would sell out of their allotment.

    And this is not a case of sour grapes. By some fluke I checked my email and ordered a set before the sell out knowing this was going to happen.

    Constructive feedback to PJ & Ten Club:

    Goal 1:
    Make your music available to your loving fans

    Goal 2:
    Cut out middlemen, sharks & ebay flippers

    Solution:
    Adopt crowd funding model (a la Kickstarter) to fund production of merch, special releases, etc.

    How it would work:
    PJ announces a 'project' ie Lightning Bolt Sevens Box Set. Fans get a week to fund the project. So ... fans pre-order and pay for the production of the product up front, making it easier for PJ to plan volume & other details with all the necessary vendors. If the campaign reaches "x" products sold the project is ON. This gives fans a chance to get their goods, cuts out a lot (though not all) of the icky middlemen, and allows PJ & Ten Club to plan production based on an exact number of units. Then PJ just takes a cut (whatever they deem fair) and everyone's happy. Jack White does something similar to this with the Third Man Records Vault and uses the same vinyl pressing plant (URP) as Pearl Jam, so they should be familiar with the model.

    There are probably other creative ways to do this ... the goal is that Pearl Jam (the best-est band in the universe!!!) releases music (and merch) that fans enjoy/play/use/wear vs. just creating a market for collector's items.

    Sincerely,

    Sexy mop handle

    same thing I was thinking

    By this theory should they make enough for the entire population of earth?

    You win some, you lose some, i didn't get the last Vault release, not the end of the world.
    Enjoy difference. Without it we're all boring!

    I'm from Argentina. Still sleeping when it gone SOLD OUT. This is totally unfair. Still waiting for Vault 3 and LB vinyls ordered the day pre-orders came up. This is totally dissappointing. Shouldn't we all 10C analog members at least have the opportunity of buying this limited stuff in OUR fan club site? Come on guys... we are not asking for any gifts... just to have the opportunity we deserve.
    Oh I forgot. Still waiting for Love Boat Captain 7' ordered on May, 6.

    Cheers.

    PS. Sorry for my english.

    Here's a crazy theory for you - base supply on demand. If the entire population of the earth would like to by the set, produce more sets. Kinda like how every other product is sold on the planet.

    I am still crying about the Wrigley posters 10C sold. I didn't get any of those at cost. Proceeds to beat dead horse. :(
