    EMAILS go out to ALL of the fan club members..many of which do not post here regularily, and thus sell out super quick. (i.e PJ20 Blu ray, PJ20 backpack, PJ Vault Vinyl, Lightning Bolt "Sevens").

    PJ Vault vinyl was available for quite a long time to preorder.

    PJ20 Blu ray was available for even longer

    I'll say it again but no way is this exclusive to 10c. Amazon had it available for hours before 10c. How would they know if it was just a small run 10c pressing. Now both have sold out their allocation. It going to be limited but really do you think 10c could cope with the backlash of just pressing a couple of hundred to fund their Christmas party.

    What confuses me is why this was repressed fora 7 inch boxset. Its like a month since its original release. It sure looks like they planned this when each song had its own artwork. If it is properly sold out then its not really a cash grab because they cant have pressed enough to make much $. It looks like it should be sold on Black Friday although way too soon for a reissue. Maybe its the label recouping some losses from the first press or just a bid to sell more copies -i doubt they are shifting as many LB vinyl as they would like because of the problem pressing.
    10c never said it was exclusive to 10c, did they? They just said that it's available to members only from the 10c store.

    Anyway, doesn't seem like much of a mystery here. 10c has had sudden sales of limited shit tons of times. This is nothing new, so I doubt it has anything to do with recouping losses or anything else. They just felt like doing it, so did it. Maybe the artist even suggested it, since he did separate artwork for each song. Or maybe someone in the band or at 10c saw the artwork for each song and had the idea for making singles for every song. Either way, I bet the separate artwork came before the idea for this item. Just a guess, obviously.

    These will probably also be available at that Seattle pop-up store btw.

    You guys posting eBay links and posting the actual name of a seller who isn't even breaking any rules (i don't personally think that is particularly appropriate) might just get this thread locked.

    FUCKING WHISKEY made me double or triple posts....

    but here is what i meant to say:

    ok. maybe it is, or maybe its not, but you may not want to proceed in harassing anyone... on ebay or fb. Harassment means sending people private messages. not saying YOU in particiular are going to, but someone here might as a result of your "digging". i dont think that is cool to go as far as looking someone up on fb like that, then post it here. its a fucking record set, for gods sake :thumbup:

    and pj soul, i totally agree!

    Seriously. Flippers are scum, fine. But they're still people that you are not allowed to fucking stalk or harass. Draw the damn line people.

  • I've never had a record player so I don't really get how this works...
    There are 6x 7" records with two songs on them?

    So in order to listen to the entire album you need to change the record 6 times?

    Its more for collectors than to listen to. IMO But ima spin those shits.

    I would not be surprised to see them add more when they roll in to work this morning.

    I seriously doubt people are going to use this item to listen to the album in full, lol. But if they have just five or ten minutes and want to throw on a couple LB songs, or they are stuck on just one song and want to play it five times in a row, or want someone to hear this one song, or want to compare this song to that song back to back, or whatever, this set is perfect for doing just that. Is the purpose of singles really that much of a puzzler to people?? I really don't understand why this concept suddenly seems so foreign to so many people.

    This is not a 10c exclusive item. It was available on Amazon as well. Who knows what other stores might sell this.

    Amazon lists (and sells) tons of releases that they, when the product is released, can't deliver...

    I am aware of that and remember the 20 3lp happened like that but as they are no longer for sale on Amazon.com it would be nice to think that they just sold out their guaranteed amount. I ordered this when all Amazon had was a title and a price before anyone knew what this was. Id be surprised if any other daft person did so hopefully amazon deliver on a first come first served basis.

    Unfortunately if they never really had them you could be before first in line and it won't help. Good luck. Hope you get it.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    I wonder how many bought today, and could care less about it other than the money they will make on it? A quarter?

    Assuming 1000 were sold...if you honestly think 750 are gonna show up on eBay you're insane. People really tend to blame "flippers" for limited things selling out when if you look at the hard numbers, it's true fans who buy the majority of limited things. Always. Just because 10% of a run is resold doesnt mean the flippers got all the copies. Relax, people.

    It blows my mind that people are actually posting names and locations of resellers and claiming the resellers are the ones who have the problem?! Look in the mirror.

    This happens with Amazon all the time. Things that are not really available get listed because all they need is a product code and release date, factual or not. Just a few weeks ago they listed Courtney Love's memoir on their site with a description and release date and a day later it was taken down after they found out all that information was premature and incorrect.

    Not saying this is a 10C exclusive, but I'd be weary of anything like this being fulfilled on Amazon.
