    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.

    Mail innovations says "shipping information received Dec 19"

    i would say i have a solid 8 week wait ahead of me

    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.

    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:

    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.

    After seeing these, is it crazy of me that I actually want to buy a second copy and possibly frame a set? What a beautiful set.

    yes it is crazy because you'd need to buy two more sets to get all the artwork

    Thanks! Tried it and got this:

    error
    Tracking information is not available at this time. Please check back later or double-check the tracking number entered and try again.

    Oh well... :lol: I seem to be in the Bermuda Triangle of 10 club deliveries - still waiting on my 2013 membership pack and Vault #3 took a journey of 8,000 miles and more than a month to reach me. I wish patience was a trait I had!
