It'll be midnight in Australia and I'll be on holiday so my chances are pretty slim but I'll still try to have a crack at this.
Whenever the "I received ___ in my mystery box" thread is started it'd be awesome to see Leezestarr and MFC2006 tell us that they found Bennys on their doorsteps!

Has anyone done the math and add them all up to see how many will be available?
847-1065 will be made.

Thanks! It's a long shot, but fingers crossed!
Yep it's a long shot... but at least it's a shot!

according to my quick off the top of my head math there is an approximately 50% chance of getting one of the rarer or out of print 12"
approximately 500 rare 12" approximately 500 non-rare 12"
then factor in the 7"
I just hope they don't use the low end projections for rare stuff and the high end projections for the other stuff... that would be dirty pool
The best part is I wouldn't mind getting the Tres Mts, RNDM, or Brad LP because I don't own them so my odds of getting something I will spin and enjoy is very high

Yes, and you are too awesome We can do it! Something awesome will show up, and there is a slight chance that it might be a Benny. This is more of a chance than I ever had at getting one, so I'm keeping my fingers, toes and the kitty's paws crossed.
Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!
Lol, Yea and for Canadians $50 for the vinyl and $75 for shipping

love this idea but it kinda defeats the RSD purpose, this 10am sale on RSD will keep many people from visiting their local record shops (east coast) my shop opens at 11 and I would have to be inline by 10ish. I'm torn. Wish they did this before or after RSD.
Whatever happens - this is awesome and I think everyone needs to enter this expecting any combinations ... Much less Chance to be disappointed
Treat it as a little fun, I can't wait to try and snag one and wait for the mail to arrive
thank you it's $50 lottery ticket and everyone wins. unbelievable amount of concern over a RSD gimmick which happens to be pretty cool. the i didn't get one thread will be priceless! good luck
Here's an idea... instead of buying more stuff, how about donating the $50 to your local animal welfare charity, which they desperately need & then listen to the stuff you already have
terrible idea

Smartphones are an amazing invention.

I think this is an awesome idea and I am super pumped!
However it's a bit of a drag to read all the negative comments about it. If you feel that sour about your chances or the 10C for doing this; do us a favor and don't enter for a chance to get one. That way there will be more opportunist for those who dig the idea.
Here is my promise: I will try to get a Mystery Box next Saturday. If I get one great...I will anxiously await it's arrival. If I don't; I will crack a beer (or pour a bloody buddy since it will be in the am) and go about my day. Probably jump on the forum to congratulate those who did. Life for me will go on and I won't let RSD sale ruin my afternoon...I'll let my wife and kids do that.
Not sure if this was already mentioned, but just wondering if they plan on stopping orders as soon as the requisite number of pairs are bought up, or if they plan on letting us all complete the orders and then just cancel most of them randomly (which would amount to a lottery). I am wondering about the second option just because of the statement about having the right to cancel orders for any reason. I would personally prefer option number two. I like lotteries, and not a huge fan of being an F5 victim. But it looks like the assumption is that we'll just see "sold out" at about 10:03am.
