    eh, people are posting their tracking updates over on FB and there are a few 4+ pounds. those are your bennys right there.

    Or Charlie Brown works in the warehouse and is randomly putting rocks in peeps' boxes, just to keep you guessing.
    I'm guessing this will be me in a few days, saying, "I got a Brad."

    So looks like I'm out on PJ20 and Benny if my whole package is only 3.22. I'll settle for Lost Dogs.

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Benny 1540 grams = 3.395 pounds
    Sevens 567 grams = 1.25 pounds
    PJ20 1380 grams = 3.042 pounds
    Lost Dogs 840 grams = 1.85 pounds

    My scale is not the most accurate and weighting these was kind of a balancing act, but you get the idea.

    Thanks for this. Looks like I might be SOL for a Benny or a PJ20 when factoring in the 7 inch and packaging. Who has an Avocado they can weigh? I need to keep hope alive.

    I would guess Avocado to be close to Lost Dogs in weight, being a double vinyl & having the big ass book it came with.

    My scale is only used for drugs, sorry.

  • Hopefully the statement of the weight of the package doesn't matter rings true. Don't see anyone with anything lower than mine so far.

    I've loved reading this, the lengths people are going to, to find out something they're going to know in a couple of weeks time is astounding :) I'm all for it though, its definitely been entertaining

    It doesn't mean a thing......hopefully

    I think 10C said in an email that the weights are meaningless....

    As a UK resident, I have no idea of weight but for $50 plus a bit of shipping & tax this has been awesome fun. Buzzing for it to arrive! Considering my vinyl collection is in its infancy i'll be happy with whatever I get. My Dutch 'Vs.' with just 'Pearl Jam' on the spine is my favourite score to date.

    My favourite is an original ten I got in a charity shop for £5. The cover is pretty worn but the vinyl is pristine.

    If UPS is taking the time to weigh each package and documenting the correct weight, then I don't see how it is meaningless. If your package was re-weighed and under two lbs. you probably did not get a Benny. Anyway, just having fun with it all. Like thinking about all the things you would do with your Powerball winnings, you gotta have fun before the truth comes down. I will find out the truth on Tuesday, in theory.

    Keep in mind if they say you'll get it on April 28th, they really mean May 7th.
