    Seriously. Are we not all autonomous adults here? Buy it if you can afford it, don't buy it if you cannot. The rejection of reason and logic among the masses is astounding.

    Both the sticker and shipping costs for a show that never happened are expensive; easy pass.

    Once you peel the back off, they become worthless. To peel or not to peel? That is the question.

    Would have been real nice to offer the option of a poster + sticker + pin set when the posters went on sale. Roll 'em/pack 'em  all up into one tube and save on shipping for the customer, save on 10C labor, and save on mailing product materials, as a lot of this stuff is going to go to the same purchasers.  Seems like that would be the most "green" philosophy, no?.

    Are the show t-shirts coming next??? Or did they actually not get printed? I am really liking these images.They would make for cool shirts.

    Is there a market for any other band show or event that never happened where people still go gaga over the merch? It's so weird to me.  I feel like all this stuff should be 50% off in the store and just sitting there.   PJ fans are pretty ridiculous, haha.

    If you don't like the price, don't buy it. The shipping complaints - - do people think 10c is charging more than the actual shipping cost as a way to make additional profits? That seems far fetched to me.

    I'm guessing the increase in prices from $2 to $5 on the pins and stickers helps keep 10c employees employed and paid during COVID. I don't think 10c would purposely increase prices without a good reason.

    ^ this. I slowed down on posters and stopped altogether on apparel after realizing how much I spend. And for these items like stickers or pins, I’d guess nothing will be so rare/collectible that rare someone will just mail out for dirt cheap after the next Mystery Box shipments.

    By the time you add up the cost of the mailer, printing the label, labor, and tracked shipping you should be right around $5.

    It’s more that they know they will be releasing the whole tour, but continue to do them in small batches. “Forcing” people (used lightly) to repeatedly pay shipping. They seemed to have realized it was shit too when they went from one sticker at a time to 4 at a time.

    You might be right.  You want to pay your employees during covid?  Charge something like $10-$15 and play a live set (like dropkick murhphy's did at fenway park.)

    I meant to include that the shipping is to Canada. Still a ridiculous amount to charge for a letter size/weight.

    Gotcha =) That is a lot considering the weight of the package.  Probably around two ounces.  Even though you can’t just slap a stamp on these because you need tracking, $12 still seems high.  It seems like there is a one size fits all approach to shipping that might make it reasonable to some fans and entirely unreasonable to others. I’m guessing this is done for expediency considering the number of orders.  There’s nothing nefarious going on here but it does feel like there is a better solution waiting to be found regarding shipping.

    Ive purchased ticket stubs on ebay with no tracking and charged 76cents for shipping from the States to  Ireland, arrives within a week. Why can't 10c offer a similar service.

    I've never had shipping issues before until now when I ordered this Philly Ten Show  setlist tee.  I still haven't received it.  Got message it was shipped from 10C on October 23rd.  As of today it is now at the Philly post office so I suspect I'll get it this week.  You are looking at almost a month to ship a tee shirt.  It's not like I need it right away or anything but in today's world a month for delivery is insane. I could have driven to the 10C warehouse picked it up and driven back across the country multiple times.

    You are an honest person.  The seller took a chance not paying more for tracked shipping. You could have filed a case with PayPal saying you never received the stub and you would have gotten a refund because there was no proof of delivery.  I learned that lesson the hard way on eBay.

    Now that you put it like that, maybe a bit dumb. Ive even requested non tracked from sellers, for vinyl & posters just to reduce costs. Stuff always arrived

    It’s not dumb on your part.  Just the seller (more naive than dumb) because it leaves them no way to prove if something really was delivered if there is a dispute.

    This forum and the Pearl Jam store have always been against anyone making any type of profit.. They are clearly making a profit from exorbitant shipping charges.
