The poster is AWESOME!!!

You'd think for $1200 the seller could eat the shipping cost.

elwayvedder

that's a damn good price considering how infrequently they show up for sale and it has EV's old school sig on it

The contents of that CD are available digitally. Maybe you can make your own Reeenk Roink.

It's a good price, but the seller canceled/refunded because another collector offered more after it was sold and paid for... so don't be too upset- you would've just been screwed over in the end by a fellow collector around here anyway...

No doubt - how do you know this?

drsluggo

Because I bought it.. and was refunded the next day after receiving personal confirmation from the seller.

When you get screwed over by the same few people over and over again you expect it... just not on things like this... from people who pretend to be friends on here...

Yikes - I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe somebody with the Reenk will see this and keep you in mind for a future transaction. Hang in there.

That's not cool at all. Wondering if eBay can do anything about that, taking offline bids is against their policies I think...

cjzoly

I say call him out...Should of sold it here in the first place...Especially something as rare as the Reeenk...It was not as if he put it up for bid...Then again he might of been flamed for the $1200 BIN price tag...Even though I would of given that just to own such a prize with the EV sig....

The seller's info is out there, and there's nothing more I can do than leave negative feedback.

Really this is the fault of the person/people who contacted the seller and told them to cancel and sell to them. Sure it's the seller's fault, but if we're to pretend on here we're looking out for each other, blowing up other people's finalized deals is beyond dirty.

This same thing happened to me a few months ago after a pair of people on here knew I had paid for it, and they *still* gave the seller a hard time about me buying it for what the seller asked for it. Then when I asked them why they did it (after I had to pay 2x the amount to get it), they said "You should feel lucky you got it that cheap."

But hey, what are friends for?

Dude, that blows. Not cool for people to act like that. Hope you get one someday

Paige

That is just not right. Really sorry that happened to you. You roll your dice and move your mice with auctions, and that's supposed to be the outcome. What a crock.

Leash_In_Hiding

Wow, that's a dick move...hopefully you can land one elsewhere. Good luck

Dr. Delight

Classic pearl jam "Fan" move right there......

RoleModelsinBlood31

Dick move for sure. But you have $1200. Better than any cd anywhere to me.

PP193448

this is the kind of stuff that ten club vitalogy foundation should put on eBay.

Is $1200 a little high?

It's fucking insane, lol. That makes the $500 zippo look like a good deal.
I usually kind of "get it" when it comes to the collectibles and the prices.... but Reenk Roink is an exception. It's the one that really befuddles me.
But hey, if the buyer's happy it's still fair game.

drsluggo

It's a good deal... it's such a rare piece. It's why big time collector "friends" on here often will cut you down to get it...

I'm not bitter or anything.

Not true. You can report the seller to eBay. I've done it. Might not immediately resolve anything, but the seller will likely be on eBay's radar for a while.

Can someone tell me what this is

Reeenk Roink

Let's have some names here. If they are doing dodgy shit like that on eBay, then who's to say it wouldn't happen to someone on here?

Pjdreamer

This is a cd, I don't care how rare or old it is. Isn't it a cd.

To the big collector's on here it sure as hell isn't. People get obsessed with shit. It's kind of sick really.

It's absolutely sick. It's why I don't know why I even like collecting stuff -- at the end of the day it's all just stuff that sits around. But like my old Cubs and Bulls cards... it's fun. It's a combo of being able to cross off those really unique items and of course the thrill of the hunt.

Not for everyone though, and I often wish I didn't have the collectors bug in me.

drsluggo

And I'm not going to name names. They are here often enough and pay as much attention to collecting here as anyone that they should just come out and say "Yeah I got it and I don't care about how I did it."

But they won't, because it would shatter the image of being integral pillars of the PJ collecting community... or just being honest in their dealings.

Pjdreamer

I'm right there with you my pj collection is pretty decent, and I spend a lot of money on vinyl like pj20 gitd but that is an amazingly cool item. This is a cd, a cd. It can be copied and reproduced. That's just my point of view. I spend crazy money on posters but again very cool posters from pj. I don't know I guess it's all about the chase and the hunt I get it but at the end of the day it's a cd. Pearl jam collecting is probably at its highest mainstream right now. I started collecting on vinyl when virology came out. We would go at midnight to tower records and that's what started it all for me. The good old days when the fan club sent you a mailer and you could check off what poster you wanted and add a second choice if they didn't have what u wanted. Then u got to go get a money order. I think I always got my first choice though. The internet drives me a little crazy now:)

I have people all the time that would like to sell me things, cool things. At full blown retail...
