Could someone up on their PJ stats help me out here..
How many copies of the 12" were pressed?
There is a copy for sale on ebay and the listing says only 2000 were pressed! Is that true?

I have a copy but did not think it was that limited, help me out please as theres no info on pjcollectors.com

    I don NOT know the answer, but I think 2000 is bullshit. Ain't believing that at all.

    There were alot of them made but no where near the amount of backspacer. The avacado was made just before vinyl production starting getting high again as far as what was pressed and how many they thought would sell. But I'm guessing a few to 5000. If someone finds out for sure please post it. I think you have to contact the label for the info through email and hope someone responds.

    Pretty sure the Avocado vinyl was available through the 10c for numerous months back in 06. I remember seeing it in the Goods section for quite awhile.

    I think 5000 seems about right. It's on ebay all the time but not in record numbers. It sold out kind of quick but not as quick as Into the Wild... think it was there for a few weeks. They made a TON of Backspacer vinyls though. Selling at Target and everything. No one knows numbers on any of these unless they are numbered like Benaroya but Avocados are definitely semi limited in hindsight.
