I'm glad I'm currently selling off my vinyl collection, reissues and mass amounts of colorways that the collector in me must have is just too much to keep up with. Not just Pearl Jam, I mainly collect hardcore band vinyl, the main band I collected has utterly saturated the market for their releases with so many reissues and colors. Kills the value of the OG pressings, just makes it unfun.

I get why people are outraged, I get why people aren't. It just comes down to how badly do you want it or how badly do you need it.

Which band @xjoshfromworkx?  Also do you have a Y2K Converge record to sell?

Just a thought, what if it is a 2017 Box, filled with OG pressings...?

3days

I don't own any of the studio albums on vinyl, so purchasing this was an easy way to get all of them. One box, one shipping fee. I suppose it's possible to get all of them cheaper with shipping, but I'd think it would be a lot more work. Glad 10c made these available.

The surprise is that you are the happy owner of a sold out item that will only be seen 20 more times as a vitalogy hc auction on eBay.  Just keep it sealed or else you'll be really mad.

You nailed it.

Referring to Converge actually, haha. I was making the list last night of what I have left for LPs and while looking up pressing info, I realized how far behind I became on some releases. Woof.

I don't have Y2K but I do have the "Downpour"/"Serial Killer" 5" that's pretty ancient.

I mix the best of both worlds! I can go from Bane to Pearl Jam in an instant.

Currently selling off my Converge collection, it's the biggest lot I have. I have miscellaneous of other bands, but nothing insane like Converge. I'll PM you.

I am pretty sure 500 people will get all ten studio albums on vinyl plus a nifty cool box to put them in. I am thinking the box will be similar in quality and design to the boot box.
What are you expecting op?  Glow in the dark vinyl?  Exclusvive ed doodles on each record?  Full band autographs on your favorite album?  Boom hand delivers your box and vinyl to your door step?

Im saying that it makes no sense to charge more for all of them together than it is to buy them separately if you're getting the exact same thing.

Agree. I don't get why anyone paid $350 for this. And the 500 who did I bet have most of the vinyl and only needed a couple plus the box. Who was willing to pay the $350 and didn't bother to get the other reissues this already comes with for more than the a la mode price?
the fact this even sold out explains the ridiculous prices for second hand PJ merch.

You don't get it? Then you are not a collector. Fairly simple really. 

Has nothing to do with that. It's that everything in this box can be purchased separately for less. So what is he collector market in that?
its not a collector market item if there is an endless supply. Which short of the COA it is. And since they all can be bought through the 10c a COA does nothing a receipt can't do.

Well everyone is not sure that they all can be bought outside the box.
What if VS, Vitalogy, Backspacer and LB have been re-cut. If it turns out that they are, that would be something unique to this set.
And those aren't available separately at this time.

Even if not available through 10c, Vs, vitalogy, BS and LB are still easy to find. Pretty sure they had all 4 last time I looked at my record store.
Recut would be one thing, but I haven't seen any indication they are anything different other than people hoping so to justify the price. So I have to assume all versions are the ones readily available.

It's funny how people kinda want to believe what they want. People that bought the box want them to be different. People that didn't buy the box want them to be the same as all other available versions. Great thing is, none of us are certain till we open the box sets when they arrive. Can't wait to find out.

True.
Do I really need a 4th version of 10, and a third version of the rest of the 90s albums?
The answer is yes, if they are somehow different. So I will be kicking myself if they are all OP or somehow different (and I mean actually different, not just a new sleeve).
And thinking I dodged a bullet if they come out exactly the same as everyone else.

Same people, same complaining.....every time.

Lol, might want to look "complaining" up in the dictionary.

Nope I'll just check lost dogs for your posts or anytime something new goes on sale and find your comments on shipping.

Strange, don't see any complaints about shipping prices here, in fact shipping is pretty reasonable for the set. 

It's hard to argue that, in general, your comments tend to favor the glass half empty view. 

No where in this thread did i complain about anything. In general yes i complain about shipping prices because they are a joke,  theres no arguing that. 99% of the people living outside of the US agree. 

Yes, the international shipping prices are absolutely deserving of all the complaints about it.

I'm on the fence about the box.  I've been rebuying the reissues to go along with my original records.   I could put the whole remastered set into the box, but it's almost 90 us for the box plus shipping.  The collector in me says do it..... but that's alot for a box :(

Way too much IMO. Frankly, I would consider this box to be an unnecessary annoyance. It's just one more step to getting the album off the shelf and onto the turntable. I don't really see the point of just getting the box. Not for $90, anyway. (I do see the point in buying the whole boxset if you don't already have all the albums of course, but really think of the box as basic packaging for that, not as an awesome thing I'd specifically want).
