Is your Benaroya Hall vinyl sealed or opened?

            Openopened once, had to see the vinyl color, never playedWouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?0

            SealedI bought vinyl records over the years expecting to play them once I got a record player. I didn't have space during college and in the apartment. So I kept the vinyls sealed. Now that the value of the vinyls are what they are, the perceived better sound is not worth losing the $1,000 or so value. If it was only worth $50 I would open it up and play it.0

 Smack it up...flip it..rub it down....evsgjamm said:Feb 3rd stats: Opened: 37% @ 27 votes 
 Sealed: 62% @ 45 votes
 Total 72 votes. There are many many more to come in. Fear not the poll people ) And so you see, I have come to doubt ) And so you see, I have come to doubt

            Sealedhello folks
 so I was luck enough to purchase a sealed copy and it is numbered P0004/2000
 I emailed ten club support years ago and asked if there was promo issues and how many were made. they did confirm that they did release promo copies but would not say how many.
 It is with great sadness that I am thinking of selling it. It is still sealed as I did get a listening copy also the box is a bit damaged and it must have been partied with as there is a small skip.
 Also have about 50 45's I am thinking of selling
 if anyone is interested contact me at vipersmasher@me.com

            Sealedif I could vote twice I would as I own 2 copies one open to listen to and one sealed in case I need a mortgage payment one day0
- 
            OpenOpened, so I could have the band sign it. Otherwise never played.

            Sealed
 Yeah my dad got me mine for Xmas 2004. I don't think I intended to keep it sealed this long, but my record player bit in around that time - or just before - and I've never gotten a new one since.evsgjamm said:Cmon all you wheeled and dealed sealed viny-ealdies... just because your Benny is sealed, doesn't mean your mouths should be. It's a free... whatever. Country, planet, get-out-of-jail-free card?? Sealed since the day it arrived in 2004. 
 Another habit says it's in love with you
 Another habit says its long overdue
 Another habit like an unwanted friend
 I'm so happy with my righteous self0

            SealedStill sealed and mint, but I will open it soon, I was just thinking the other day how some of my vinyl I have never bothered to open, inc LOTwoL and Vitalogy lol, us other bands like REM and the Strokes. Everything else is opened, yes everything, white Backspacer, Binaural etc. I'll never sell my Benny, I'm a collector as much as a devoted listener. The value makes no difference to me because I'd have to be starving hungry before I sold any of my PJ collection, which I've gathered since the Ten days. One if my most sentimental possessions.p
 Ps, don't think my Benny has ever been on "the list". So feel free to update that.Post edited by love-boat-captain onLondon 29-10-96, London 29/30-5-00, London 20-4-06, Reading 27-8-06, London 18-6-07, London 11-8-09, London 18-8-09, London 25-6-10, Berlin 30-6-10 / PJ20 3/4-9-11, Manchester 20-6-12, Amsterdam 26/27-6-12, EV-London 30/31-7-12, EV-Orlando 27-11-120
