I might have one that I'd sell for $160. It's in an eBay auction now, but if it doesn't meet the reserve price, i'll come back here and sell it. The auction ends at around Noon on Thursday.

Guessing he didnt read the thread...

Sorry if I misunderstood. I just thought PP193448 was offering $150 for one. Thought by selling it for $160 here I'd be giving someone a "deal" because the cheapest I've seen them go for on eBay is around $205.

Charging someone 4 times what you paid for something immediately after you received it is not giving someone a "deal". I'm not trying to criticize you or be harsh, I promise. There are a lot of people upset about others buying these just to turn around and sell them on ebay for a huge profit. This community used to be about a lot more than that from what I remember. Now it almost seems predatory at times with people trying to get the top dollar.

For what it's worth, I completely agree with you.

Let's not forget that two people on this thread have already offered $139.99 and $150 for this vinyl...... :>

I don't think ThumbingMyWay310 is that far out of line. I'm sure we'd all love endless supplies of limited edition merchandise at face value.......NOT REALITY!

Maybe you should read the whole thread and see where the conversation has turned and you would see the original poster is now offering to donate the 150 to a cause for this record and I believe someone else offered to match it. You're right, he can sell his record for however much he wants. It is however a stretch to call it a deal when I have seen two other kind hearted fans on here sell it for cost to people who weren't around when they went on sale. This isn't ebay. Oh and by the way, I think your caps lock button is stuck.

I thought the same thing about Sevens, too. That hasn't happened quite as much as I thought, they have stayed pretty high. Do you think there are more of these Coke Tens or Sevens?

i'd keep an eye on ebay, most of them are in hand it seems and they are starting to flood the market. saw a couple today sell for 150 to 170. wait it out and a little over a hundred is possible I think.

It's not like we didn't know it was happening, but hardly anyone actually comes onto Lost Dogs and admits it, lol. It made the thread that much more interesting!

I don't know man, a sevens went for under 250 a few days ago, but there's one over 300 right now. ebay is wack so you never really know. when sevens first came out weren't they in the 500 to 700 dollar range? if I had to guess I would say there are more cokes than sevens, but that's just a guess.

JB196203

i think there are 2000 of the coke bottle 10s and the lightning 7s

I believe that's right, or there about. Someone polled people's order numbers for Sevens and looked at the range and factored in average other sales to try and see how many were sold, and I think that seemed to suggest that there were about 2000, give or take.

JB196203

for that matter there are also 2000 bennies and avocados. how about that for price spread...http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/comment/5491446?#

like I said, not trying to criticize. I landed one from Newbury and if somebody offered me some crazy amount of money I would probably take it. I didn't buy to sell it but in the end it is just another possession I don't need. I could always use the money to help someone else out or put food on my table. I just think PJ_Soul is right. People on here know this happens, it's just not often someone comes on here and admits it openly. Maybe use the pm function in the future to avoid the wrath of these rabid fans. Hahaha

Yes but Ten is their most readily available release. There are no other Benny or Sevens repressed.

true but you can buy the lightning bolt album which is why it surprises me those 7s go for what they do. fun to look at, twice but a pain to listen too.

Wow this thread got popular..

Still wondering if anyone wants to donate to an awesome charity while helping me out.

I was able to grab an extra and I'll do it for 130 plus shipping. Send me a PM.

What to do? Accept this or wait and try to fund EV's cause.

Resist the efforts of the ones capitalizing....!!!!
I'm gonna wait this one out. I have a feeling the price will come down.

Plus, Newbury Comics is my local shop and I promise that if I can find any extras there, they'll go to board member for cost.

I have a gut feeling that ten club held a few back just like Newbury did. Keep your eyes on the prize this weekend. I don't think it was an accident the initial email said RSD. I could be wrong but what's a couple more days? Not to mention the amount of them on ebay shows the secondary market is saturated with them for resale. The price will go down. And Medozk, If that does happen and I can land another one for cost from ten club, it has your name on it. I have seen you posting all over about this just like me. It is outrageous what "fans" do to each other on here.

I appreciate that. I just really want one of these... And was thinking, well if I'm going to pay this much.. I would really rather it go to Dave and his great charity.

Some kind soul donate one of these to Elwayvedder. I would rather $150 go towards his charity instead of $150 going into a flippers pocket on ebay.

Also, these things are going down right now. Lots selling for between $150 and $180.....remember guys...ebay is going to take about $20 from that for their cut. So if your just selling these things in Lost Dogs for about $160...that's NOT a deal...that's ebay prices. Lost Dog prices should be about $100, you still make money and its not as crazy as ebay.

So saying that...I would rather pay the extra $50 towards EV's charity.... or if you just want to make money I will pay you $100 and give EV $50

Still looking to give money to Elwayvedder

Anyone who makes this happen for my man here, you get some cool shit from me & I'll throw in $20 to OYR because they are doing all kinds of good for our military & their families. So, what next?

Karojo820673

It's good offer. One sold for about $125. They have come down a lot.

The people willing to pay high prices already got theirs. It will take a long time for the price to go up again. So many people will open and play theirs that it would take quite a few years, a sealed one, and someone that has to have it to fetch high prices again.
