    I think a first step would be to have a solid number as to how many were produced

    Considering they're not numbered, is there any way we could figure this out? I've seen the estimates of 500-1000, but those are just based on how fast it sold out.

    with all of the past "sold out" merch making its way to these "pop up shop" and art convention's merch orgies, i think it makes it pretty hard to judge how many were actually made... they are still selling Benny's for gods sake so who knows how many of these they have sitting around to sell at a massive future mark up?

    Any chance we could have an adult conversation about the value of this set now? Not trying to start an argument or turn this into a "flippers suck" thread. I just think as a community, we could actually set a value that might make everyone happy.

    Definitely not looking for the remark "$55+shipping, it's what you paid for it". I've seen a few guys in Lost Dogs get ripped for either asking too much, or not having enough to trade for this, so I figured I'd ask.

    I for one, don't think it's reached Benny status, but I'll yield the floor to some of our experts. :corn: :corn: :corn:

    Most are $550 Buy Now on ebay. When the auctions start to reach that number because there are more bidders than listed Sevens, the Buy Now listings will get scooped up. Where the auctions then end up will be the new price. And it will rise from there as time goes by. Now on the contrary, if the auctions end at below the Buy Now prices then supply exceeds demand or the price is too high. So for these to reach Benny value they would need to creep up close to $1,000. I don't see that happening now, because there still are Buy Now listed far below that. If they get scooped up and all is left are auctions, Fthen anything goes. The crazy prices for The Fixer colored vinyl makes this all uncertain. I think if someone actually split up a box and listed them individually they could get enough money to buy a Benny from that. My 2 cents.

    speaking of the colored Fixer singles.... i was just thinking that the entire band could sign a regular Fixer 7" and it probably wouldnt sell for $300 like the blue one does :lol:

    Those signed Turning Mist singles went for $700-$1000..so I think they could.

    The Shadow 10" has 500 made and was sold out in a day?

    The Mad Seasons was 500-1000 and sold out in a day?

    Sevens was sold out in a few hours on a Sunday.

    Nobody clamored for the Shadow 10", so it has a low resell price and is only 1 record.

    Mad Season is dropping down now in price too. Black or white version.

    Sevens is a neat little package of multi-colored vinyl.

    My guess is no more than a few hundred were made and this will fetch $1000 real soon. That is gonna suck for the true fans that want one of these.

    If they made 10% overage like the Bennys then you might see a few in a future pop up shop.

    My $.02

    You also have to figure in how many on eBay are from sellers who bought them on Amazon who according to the 10c will not get their orders. I know I've seen a few sellers with multiple copies who probably ordered several from Amazon and are still expecting them.

    I think when/if people start getting their eBay auction pre-sells that they won cancelled because the seller couldn't get the set, then it could get more crazy. So far as most as I can tell 32 copies sold on eBay for $400+. Say just a faction of those don't come through, then you'll have more people willing to spend a lot of money back in the market for one.

    Hard to tell how many Sevens there are.

    We know there were
    2,000 Bennys (plus a bunch more aparently) sold only by 10C
    1,000 Into the Wild Soundtracks produced (with the 10C only selling a few hundred and select indie stores getting the rest)

    One thing that does make me laugh is how much money the Christmas singles go for sometimes. There has to be tens of thousands of each one made after 92 or so.

    I chose not to buy Sevens because i thought it was a cash grab by the band. Turned out to be a cash grab by everyone else too :lol: I'm okay with not having it. We all have our collectibles. I recently landed an LP much more rare and sought after from another legendary band. Helps me feel better about missing out :D

    The Into the Wild Soundtrack was re-issued on LP in 2010.

    Yeah but not really by Ed or 10C though. And missing the 7". Still well done by MOV though. Love that they sought out the licensing to get it out.

    But yeah reissues do make sense though for fans. I was just pointinf out how theyve limited things. Makes no sense.

    manufactured to be limited is horrible for fans... as a fan that 7" isn't worth the extra bills. You could get half of it off the Body of War soundtrack too, and that record is not very valuable at all.

    8 weeks? D'oh!

    Well, haven't heard any folks in Europe receiving their box sets yet. It's a known fact that once they received their 10club goodies in the mail, add another 2 weeks till folks in Canada will start receiving their 10club goodies. Not sure how & why that system works, but that's how it goes.

    So, its looking the number out there is close to 2000. I think paying more than $250 for this is foolish and I don't expect it to ever reach Benny status. For one, its not numbered, so they could easily do another production run and nobody would know the difference. Second, the songs are already available in a vinyl format.

    So there it is, my 'adult' two cents.
