    I have #1676, still factory sealed.

    My friend Eric bought it from the 10C back when it went on sale. Eric was killed in Afghanistan last September and left me his record collection, which included the Benny box.

    Sorry to hear this. So fucking tired of wars.
    If I had known then, what I know now.

    1373 here.
  • 146 for me, happy to have helped with the Tsunami Relief Auction. I own a Vinyl shop and we keep it in a case behind the counter that says NOT FOR SALE. We generally start the day by spinning the red circle, spin spin. About once a week someone comes in the shop and has a "Holy Shit" moment and begs and pleads, but I shall never break! One dude brought in $1,500.00 CASH, put it on the counter and said "I want That" and pointed at my Benaroya. I politely slid the money back to him and told him he could use that money to buy some Neil Young or The Band. He huffed and pulled out ANOTHER thousand, making it $2,500.00. I kindly told him that I would crack open the safe and sell him a Beatles Mono First State Butcher Cover of Yesterday and Today. He took his $2500.00, had a few choice words about "never coming back" and F this and F that and then departed empty handed. As he was kicking open the door to my shop, I kindly mentioned to him that $2500.00 would go a long way towards drowning his sorrows at the bar across the street. Well, he didn't find that too funny....The Police arrived about 3 minutes later to retrieve the gentleman from underneath my boot. He got charged with Felony Battery (he tried to hit me with the "Take a penny, leave a penny jar" :lol: and destruction of property. He did 90 days, all over a record. How silly. More consumption at any cost. I bet he works for the Government and buys $500.00 toilet seats and $200.00 pencils. I'm pretty sure he had Green Disease. So now the sign above the display says "NOT FOR SALE" and just below that it says "This is what happened to the last guy that asked", with an arrow pointed at the mug shot (public record) of the aforementioned gentleman. It gets a laugh from people, especially the PJ people. I have the best job ever! Viva La Vinyl
    I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room.

    I would probably take the $2500 and then see if he was interested in some custom toilet seats. :shock:

    Why not take the $2500, buy another sealed copy, and have a little scratch left over? This is quite a bizarre story from several angles.
