Sooo...

When does the 10C start a bitching thread titled: 'Please 10C community... buy these extra backpacks we have seeing as you demanded them'?

Everybody pisses and moans when they release limited edition stuff that they can't get their hands on- crying that they should have produced more. But here's one example how they simply cannot win: don't produce enough... listen to people moan... produce too much... put the extras up on your shelves and prepare for the next mystery item sale.

Cue the 'this is why everything needs to be a presale' comments.

I'd like more A/V goods myself.

They have only been in the shop for 9 days. Seems a little soon to be declaring it a failure, no? Just because something doesn't sell out in a day, it doesn't mean it shouldn't be there. That these things are still in the shop after more than a week is perfectly okay. If they are still there a year from now, then your point will have some merit.

The backpack frenzy was nearly insufferable.

They've offered something comparable- the quality is awesome... the aesthetics debatable- and they will likely be stuck with leftover merchandise.

I've tried to make this point before with other stale items- I just thought I'd try again with a fresher and more relevant item. Why? I dunno. Just never one to back off easily I guess.

I'm all for never backing off easily.
Well, we'll see. I think they'll eventually sell out of these things. People who bought them are now posting positive reviews, Christmas is coming, etc.... But they could have been designed or selected to better fit the general culture of the fan base, that's for sure. These things aren't very Pearl Jammy!

Exactly. It's all about the aesthetic quality of the bag. Most people are finding it lacking.

This. If the bag looked good I'd buy it. Both are plain ugly

If I was there I would. Nobody says Hello though...

Well the backpack just passed the fashionable in style test. My pre-teen who could care less about Pearl Jam just saw the backpack and said "that's cool looking, can I take it to school"? I'll take a kid's opinion over and adult's any day on what looks good or not.

what does the back pack look like and i tell you what i honestly think

It is in goods section. It is growing on me. It is pretty functional.

thanks..
i checked it out
the back pack is NICE nothing wrong with it at all and i dont mind it
but the man bag is absolutely yukky sorry pj but it also looks as
though it would scratch easily, but thats just my opinion..

First off, 12 year olds don't wear hello kitty and second of all, I've seen many people at PJ shows who I assume are the ones posting and most of them still dress like it's still 1990. Half the people on here probably wish they were made of flannel and plaid. Again, I'll take a kid's opinion on what's fashionable in 2015.
