    If they do restock, I'll just cancel the Amazon order. I am wondering, though, if I got in on the Amazon one before it went out of stock too?? :?

    Here's a crazy theory for you - base supply on demand. If the entire population of the earth would like to by the set, produce more sets. Kinda like how every other product is sold on the planet.

    Not trying to start an argument but there are plenty of items in the world that are limited edition/limited quantities its not a new thing. I agree they probably should have made a few more of these, but they probably should put No Code back up for sale on Vinyl to i'm sure the "demand" is there.

    I'm just saying I'm sure there were people in other parts of the world who were probably asleep from the time the email went out until the set was sold out. They had no chance to get this. That's not right. At least when the Benny sets went on sale, we were given notice it was coming.
    I'm not sure expecting 10c to give a shit about time zones on the other side of the world is a reasonable expectation... Just what exactly do people think 10's priority is when it comes to MERCH?? Their attitude towards merch is not even close to the same as it is towards tickets, like it or not. They like sudden limited edition sales. They create a buzz. They seem to appreciate the concept of rare items. Hell, they also actually limit how many flippers get their hands on the stuff by not sending warning, lol. Their mission is accomplished. 10c never ever did anything to suggest to any member that wide availability of merch - especially limited edition merch - is a part of the perks of being in the club. On the contrary.

    Also, this wasn't a random announcement. 10c is releasing their newsletters every 10th of the month at about the same time of day. Everyone in the world could easily just plan to check it out at that time each month to see what needs immediate action. Try being just a tiny bit proactive and you're less likely to lose out.

    For those who still want this thing, try finding someone going to the Seattle pop-up store and see if they can snag you one at retail.

    The email from 10 club has been arriving like clockwork on the 10th of each month.

    viewtopic.php?f=4&t=223919&start=15

    For 9 months now emails have been on the 10th, even on the weekends and they have been an indicator of new or exclusive merch on sale NOW. Remember the Wrigley posters, announced on the 10th and sold simultaneously. For those who missed and feel shafted, it was all right there in front of you. I'll bet more people check this place and their emails on December 10th!

    no, but i guess their monthly emails have been coming on on the 10th of each month. i guess its a lesson for all of us to check their emails periodically on that date
    it's largely due to eddie that i liked to jump off of things as a child...

    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?

    I dont get it either. Pj's items are getting odd..

    i just email the manufacturer for the replacements ;)

    :lol::lol::lol:

    As I mentioned earlier, 45 rpm records sound more "alive."
    Higher speed means larger capacity for storing information. Lower speed is more convenient from the storage and costs point of view. Performance wise, 45 rpm editions always sound better than 33 rpm ones, provided that the rest of the variables are equal (master tape, vinyl quality and so on).

    Ahh, yeah cool. I didnt think of that. It is just odd to me that they didnt release these at the same time as the original vinyl. I dont see the need to spend another $60 to bump up the quality (which I might not even notice), and be required to change the record after every song. It just seems like another campy collectors thing/moeny maker for the band. Its just not for me, but to each their own..

    no, just trying to help out a bunch of disappointed vinyl lovers...
    there are plenty of other places to buy records online, those were just first two I stumbled into.

    I'm actually pretty pissed about it. If sold out I'm cool but to place order then this blows. Did anyone else get the back ordered email?

    I really dont even think they are that cool, regardless of secondary value... I could bought one and couldn't justify buying 7"s with no b-sides for $85 shipped to canada, but people will buy anything they do and so little creativity goes into this crap

    Just my opinion

    Back ordered usually means they are making more stock, correct? Do you mind posting the exact wording?

    i get people feel gutted that they weren't around their computer at the time of the sale but what is the alternative at this point?

    many times in the past people were complaining that these products were getting released on weekdays when people were at work and their jobs did not allow them to have access to a computer.

    now we have a weekend release (sunday, the day most people are home) and it's still not pleasing everyone.

    you are going to win some and lose some. such is life.
