    Yep. People like the idea of Limited Edition a bit too much. Everything what is LIMITED or Numbered sells for insane prices.

    Not entirely true. Limited yes. If you only release 400 sets and 3000 people want one, the values are going to get insane. Simply numbering things doesn't make them valuable. MOV often makes the first run of their pressings numbered and on coloured vinyl. Once those are out they make the black vinyl widely available. The values of the numbered ones aren't much different that the ones that followed. The abundant supply keeps prices in cheque.

    It's the same on RSD. Make a 3000 pressing of a popular vinyl and it's going to go for a mint on ebay. Press 5000 to 7000 copies and there won't be an issue.

    I completely agree with you on demand created from small supply, but simply numbering things doesn't do much. In this case 400 is an insanely low supply. Thus high prices.

    Bull Moose listing has been taken down .. http://www.bullmoose.com/p/19474101/vinyl-films-records-10-box-vinyl-films-records-10-box-clear-vinyl .

    For those still searching, keep trying. Use Twitter & Google and search "vinyl films" . There has also been a few record stores posting them on Facebook & Instagram that they received their copies. Few of those stores though have been flipping them on eBay. Awesome right? :/

    Anyways .. all the best.

    just picked one up here locally. wasn't sure if my store of choice would get one but they knew for a couple months now i was looking for it and put it aside for me.

    Very nice. I stopped by that same store today after work. I was informed I missed the last copy by an hour. Oh well. White Stripes "Under Great Northern Lights" was my consolation prize.
    sorry, dude. i would have let you know there was another but i didn't have your number.
    On that note...thanks for the text Ryan! I was the masked man who scooped up the last one an hour before Jeremy...
    haha, nice. glad it was "one of us".

    I've seen them sell for $49.99 to $69.99 from various record stores which is not bad. :)

    I think I've scored one for $75 + shipping, but given the minimal chance I thought I had to get this, I'm happy enough.

    Are you going to the store in Darien that was supposed to have some in today? If not, you might want to try there as well if it is close enough to try.

    So, I've called about 10 record stores over the last month or so and nobody knew what I was talking about....Frustrating. I know it's a long shot but if anyone finds an extra and can grab it please let me know.
