    The fact that this showed up on this thread does offer some sort of encouragement to those of us unlucky enough to have not ordered the Deluxe DVD before they were "SOLD OUT". I don't know the logistics of producing more, but if ~450 of us have signed this petition, there is a lot of money sitting on the table. Hopefully more than enough to warrant making more copies. Why not take our money now and see if it's a profitable or breakeven situation for the band. Then if it isn't, offer refunds. I stated before, I am willing to pay $100 for the the standard Deluxe and even more for the Deluxe Blu Ray. I think that is certainly reasonable and that most everyone else here would agree.

    Speaking for myself, there's no way the sets should be anymore than the price they were originally listed at. They were already pricey to begin with so to make them any more expensive would be a slap in the face. Plus, to price them anymore would be pure extortion, plain and simple.

    I wouldn't have a problem paying a little more for the deluxe blu ray than the original listed price. Just for the fact that if they did do another run (hope, hope) it probably wouldn't be at the volume the original copies were produced at, so since it would be a smaller order the manufacturer would probably charge more to make them.

    It's the packaging that is the issue here. Pressing more copies of the actual DVD's is not that big of a deal. The question is how much money will it take to make another run worth it for the band..and the fans!

    And to respond to another comment above. Paying a little more is NOT extortion. We are asking, they are not offering. The band is not asking us how much we're willing to pay, but I'm stating it. BIG difference. We have to let them know that we can make this worth their while!

    Crappy, but that and the flipping are the natural result of manufactured scarcity.

    I'll have to respectfully disagree. It's already priced over odds for what it is. Using your theory, what's to stop the club from putting it up at something like $150? If that was the case I'd rather take my chances and wait until they come down on the bay before paying something like that.

    Well what would stop them is the likelihood that most of us (I think), including myself, are not willing to pay THAT much. Again, the big question is how much will it take to make it worthwhile for another production run and can we guarantee that to them? That's why I think the set a price, take orders and wait and see approach would be a good way for them to handle it. If they aren't guaranteed to at least break even, then cancel the orders and refund the money.

    And as far as the eBay pricing goes, I don't see that coming down anytime soon, if ever, as long as this set is as limited as it currently is. It's not going to get less rare. But who knows, maybe someone will sell a copy that's been dragged through the mud for pretty cheap? :lol:
