    10C was selling Vault 3 for $150???

    If that is true it seems somewhat disgusting doesn't it? Imagine the price next year.

    Everything was being sold for charity - Vitalogy Foundation and local charities.

    150 seems a bit much so soon after it's release, especially since they could have any # of copies,

    I have seen ebay sellers who have a designated amount of their sale go to charities.

    PJ ebay. It rhymes. And so it goes...

    Mine certainly did!

    The seller has quite the little PJ "resale" business on ebay. Also selling a colored PJ20 vinyl for $1300 and some $20 stickers and $100 posters from the tour.

    No bad $ for just standing in line in the freezing cold all morning.

    Stood in the freezing cold close to 3 hours...+/-110 people ahead of my husband and I....ended up with orange fixer, EV tour shirts, stickers, backspacer little ball, 2 euro posters, some wrigley cards all from the mystery box we each got. Hubby scored an ames poster he realllly wanted which got signed there. The raffle was....interesting...many of the same people kept winning multiple times...one young fella won the big prize. Overall was a good time though temps were low...met some great people; some nice teachers :) TC let everyone in at 1130 possibly due to the cold weather and treated us to some donuts lol
    I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun.....
    I wanna race..with the sundown..I want a last breath..I don't let out...

    Imo total joke.....we were in the last group to be let into the showbox before they shut it down. We waited 3.45 hours to see nothing....absolutely nothing worth buying by the time we got in. Mystery boxew sold out about 20 people ahead of us. While i appreciate it was for charity....we were told if you bring a gift you would get in first....we brought gifts but people without gifts and possibly also wothout ten club membership got in before us. Those people got to buy whatever they wanted and there was nothing left.....i dont mind gving to charity but total false advertising and unfair in my opinion.....i joked about having only $4 in my wallet and got to end of the available and still had it!
    The positive was the fun and banter in the queue but really overall it sucked.
    I didnt expect limited edition but i wanted the ladies future days shirt thats on the website. Postage and duty international is huge but they didnt have any regular stuff on sale.
    Overall i wouldnt go again.
    Also ive never been to a raffel before where 4 people literally win 90% of the prizes. Very strange!

    I was in the first 20 people line. There was a guy in the first 5 handing out copied membership cards to people up around him. Another guy comes after me and suddenly as we are waking in is front of me and my wife. He brought 4 people with him were I am quite sure we're not PJ fans. He tells them all what to buy and I'm sure he is flipping the stuff. I can't prove it. In hindsight I should have at least told the guy to get the fuck behind me. No biggie. I got the last lightning Bolt red. The only thing I missed and it we there, was tr. ITW. Just happy to get what I got. Ten Club seriously needs to issue REAL membership cards. All in all I am happy but the first 20 were there to flip then collect. I am a collector. If the limited the amount you could buy. More people would have gotten something and flippers would not have should up at 1am

    I hope that finally they cleared out the entire warehouse of these SOLD OUT records.

    who the fuck do these flipper guys think they are? we all knew that the earlier you got there, the better stuff you could get. but I don't care about that shit. I should be able to sleep until ten minutes before it opens then waltz right in and buy whatever the hell I want. it's just so frustrating that the people that waited in that terrible weather the longest got the best stuff. it's fucking bull shit is what it is. right guys? woo
    if you think what I believe is stupid, bizarre, ridiculous or outrageous.....it's ok, I think I had a brain tumor when I wrote that.

    It seems 10c make it too easy for people to flip stuff which shows they aren't that bothered by people doing so. Unfortunately its just part of the game now with collecting records.

    I got in line about 10:30 AM and got up to the stand at about 2 PM. So, 3 1/2 hours of waiting. Luckily, I met some cool people in line that made the time pass fairly quickly. I got the PJ20 LP which I passed up at last year's Pop Up Shop for $100 (though I believe it was $50 last year). Also, the Spokane poster (which is one of my favorites) and a bunch of 2013 tour stickers from various cities. Finally, snagged an Ames Bros shirt for $20 which is normally $34 on their website.

    But yeah, they didn't check the membership cards or presents like they said they would. But the early entry thing was completely wiped out thanks to the huge lines. But, it's all good I guess as they collected a huge pile of gifts for the Tree Top charity so I tried not to grumble too much about it. There will be some happy kids come Christmas.

    I was the guy in line right behind you. Had a good time talking and was glad to see you got the PJ20 LP. It was definitely a stressful day.

    Hey, were you the guy I gave directions to Easy Street to?

    Yeah, that was me. I never made it over there though. It's been so cold this weekend, I just went back to the hotel and had a few beers.
