pjtaper

I heard 6 months you have to wait 6 months in order for it not to be flipping.. imagine if someone miscalculated, and waited 5 months 30 days, accidentally became a flipper... :fp:

The day they are recieved....Lost Dogs will start getting sale and trade listings.

just don't make it an auction. disclose the $600 price tag from the beginning and you are good to go in the mod's eyes!

Out of the thousands of members only a few here and there complain. I think it's hysterical... You win some and lose some. Either way, keep on keepin' on :corn:

I don't consider trading the same as "flipping" on ebay for $500

I do if the item is bought for the specific purpose of trading it. I'm not saying that it should be prohibited, but I do consider it a flip.

What don't people understand about Limited Edition? Petitions to have more released? If you do that it becomes false advertisment to the initial release.

Look, I was lucky to get one. I wasn't able to grab the vaults for whatever reason. I didn't stomp my feet and complain that life isn't fair. Happy for those who received and kept my fingers crossed I'd be able to grab the next limited edition peace that I was interested in. I think its a cool piece and part of the draw is that not EVERYONE has one. I can appreciate it a bit more like you all who have the Benny etc.

Everyone is going to be ok. I promise!

Hope all is well...

This is exactly right. I am in the exact same boat, chose not to order a vault3 for some reason, then it was gone. Lesson learned for me.

The unfortunate problem is the society we live in today, where everyone thinks they are entitled to what they want when they want it. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose and sometimes it rains.

As soon as I get mine, I'll be looking for a sealed Binaural and a Kong poster in exchange for my mint copy.

Thanks guys.

So you were able to complete the order while it wasn`t in stock?? what the hell are they doing? :?

its either:

1. Drop it randomly and people lucky/pathetic enough to be on point (like me) score.

2. Set an on-sale time and everyone plays the F5 game

3. All-out lottery

This reminds me of Brian Lux's "The Limited Edition Club", thread.

They could also do it like they did for vault 3 and have a decent buying window and have it made to order.
Not sure why it wasn't done that way this time, but it should have to appease as many people as possible.

What's most comical is that this happens every time they release something for sale. It's par for the course and people still don't get it.

The 10C isn't deliberately trying to piss people off. As many 'hot items' as they have released... there are 'not so hot items' that sit in a warehouse somewhere at the 10C's expense.

Once people purchase something... I think it is their right to do whatever the hell they please with it. The petty judgements and scathing critiques reflect nothing more than jealousy. It's okay to feel disappointed, but try to maintain a touch of dignity before losing your mind and spitting venom all over anything you dislike about the situation.

Do people realize it is Remembrance Day and that some have experienced much worse than missing out on a fucking box set of records- of re-released music?

The thing is, you had to know something was going to drop yesterday, it was the 10th of the month!

Yah but making the amount released so small they do end up pissing people off. So they should probably learn from that. If they are worried about getting stuck with extra stock, why not do them like vault #3, take the order for 3-4 weeks, and make enough to fill all of those orders.

10c has been at this long enough now, you'd think they'd figure out. They might not deliberately be trying to piss people off, but by releasing extremely limited items and a short window to purchase they are.

There will never be a way to make EVERYONE happy! True story.

the best was i was at the supermarket grocery shopping with the lady when i received the e-mail. "cool, new merch, but my shitty service won't download the pictures in the e-mail, i'll check out what is in the store when i get home." then we went to chipolte right after to get burrito bowls (it was lovely), because you know... we didn't want to cook the food we just bought. made our way home, checked out the merch store, thought this was a cool item and purchased it at exactly 3pm CST.

out of stock shortly after. must have been one of the last orders. i'll chalk myself up to lucky but also pathetic for going out to eat with a trunk full of just purchased food.

True but producing such small quantities only available for purchase in short window makes very few people happy and lots of people not happy.

So you can't make everyone happy, but you can sure make alot more people happier than they did. They're method of handling it probably achieved minimal happy results.
