Considering the clear won't be for sale outside of the box that is odd. Someone probably looted some at the warehouse. But the fact that people will bid more than double what the cost of the entire 6 ep boxset will cost is hilarious.
edit: The label is looking into how the ebay seller got those. I would think they wouldn't appreciate items being sold months before they are even released.
I'm not sure. The seller could be selling them without actually having them in hand, which is against ebay policy. I don't know. It could be a disgruntled Music Film employee who is going to make some extra dough.
The boxset is not available at retail at this time.
All these pre-orders will be probably be refunded. These guys order everything that appears on their distributor's list, not knowing these will probably only be sold through brick-and-morter record stores, just like the black vinyl version.
I pre-ordered a black version on ebay from a seller, and was later refunded when their distributor didn't come through...its a lot like Amazon pre-orders that don't end up happening.
No, I think this guy actually has them in hand. They appear to be some sort of warehouse selling thousands of random items, but only a 3 different records (one of the other being the Baker Theater Vinyl). Unless these are the black version as the packaging between the black and clear are identical. Those pics in the auction appear to be his (not stock) and the item looks like it ships immediately. Plus this record would never show up in a distributor's list as it is not going to be for sale anywhere outside the boxset. Dude grabbed an extra box and is going to make some cash. But putting 27 up for sale at once is dumb unless he drops the price to something closer to retail.
I had two different sellers refund me on the black Music for Film 10" - still looking for it if anyone has one to trade/sell.
But moral of the story is that many sellers will try to take advantage of customers through preorders and then cancel most when they only get 5 of the 25 they ordered. It happens every time with these releases.
**Stock Image** The picture below is a stock photo. The packaging for the item you will receive may vary slightly but the item is the same model and in the same condition as described.
And so you see, I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you.

Well maybe "stock" as far as they are selling 29 of them total and only have 1 picture up. The the image is marked with their company logo so i assumed its an image they took.
There's no way this guy has 29 copies of this. I highly doubt they've even been boxed up at this point.

The label posted pictures of boxes of all 6 shrink wrapped 10"s for this set last week. They also posted on FB that they were also going to check into where this company got these from.
the ones on amazon were delivered ok, so I expect the ones on ebay are very likely in that guys hands.....
Yep, seller sold one clear vinyl on Amazon. Received an email back from them that they would be selling more on Amazon soon.
The box sets are not numbered 1/500, 2/500 etc.. They are just numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 etc.. Maybe 200-300 boxes sold and the remaining individual clear 10" singles sold separately?
http://www.npsstore.com/home .. Think Indie probably sent their box of 10" clear singles to the NPS Store early not informing them to wait to put them on sale publicly early May or something.
I asked a lot of record stores here in Germany if they know something about this release but they don't. Now I know why^^ If anyone could try to grab an extra box for me, that would be fantastic! Let me know, please

Limited items are never truly limited... sort of like when the 10c busted out non numbered Bennys for their pop up shop
Still don't see that many pop ups. They sold 65 there.
