They went for $202.50 each. It looks like the market has been set.tempo_n_groove said:BTW 3 test pressing are on ebay.
Don't outbid me bro!0 -
Picked one up just now. I seriously never thought i would own a PJ test pressing, let alone one from this boxset.tempo_n_groove said:There were rumored to be only 10 of these test pressings. A person that had sold most of the sets acquired them and that is what they told me.
There is a lot of stigma and aura around these sets. There is a box for the set which only a handful exist and literally a handful. I haven't found all of the owners yet but I do know of two of them and I'm one.
PJ Collectors doesn't even have a pic of the box.
These are official too. 10C has given the red sampler record away in a contest so there's that.
Happy hunting everyone.0 -

I like how yours came with the sticker separate, mine was already on.tempo_n_groove said:
like you and I have discussed before, I think there are so few of these because what we have are probably mock ups. Like a test pressing for the records."Born on third, thinks he got a triple."0 -

I had taken the sticker off and placed it on a sticker backing to preserve it as I knew it would lose it's stickyness.scurtis said:

This has also left my collection. Sold it to a fellow member on here.

Yeah, you’re not alone. They’ve come down in price quite a bit in the last couple years.scurtis said:

The well has run dry on these and all the crazy collectors have them so no one is shelling out the big money for them anymore. This is why I hate underground deals, post that shit so the next guy doesn't get burned.
These are the big holes though, good luck finding the small hole versions or the box. Those should retain a value.
I'm sure he still has a few more of these so pay attention to ebay.
So the first set of small hole ones sold on average of $600. 600x200= $120,000
The big hole version on average sold for $400. 400x200= $80,000
Guy has made over 200K from these so far because some sold for wayyyy more and then there was like 5 boxes that sold for a pretty penny.0 -
At least I don’t feel like I overpaid for the box, I have only ever seen one other one (the one you had).tempo_n_groove said:
