    any Bennys accounted for?

    Sadly I doubt we would find out here....probably straight to eBay. If I am lucky to get one...straight to the record player.
    hsohi, I hope you're wrong and that the Benny's (and the rest of them) go to fans that would play them and NOT sell them.

    Spin, Spin!!!

    If I get a Benny I will certainly post it here. And spin the hell out of it! I still don't know how much my package weighs and when it will arrive, so there is still a chance haha Oh, sweet torture of anticipation...

    You ALL want a Benny for ONE reason..
    And ONE reason only...

    Because it is worth over $1000.00

    End of story.
    Take me piece by piece.....

    Well, you cannot talk for everybody... Seriously. I don't care how much it is worth. I want to spin it. Hence my reissue thread. I think it is ridiculous to keep such a beautiful recording under wraps and make it only available to people who possibly never even open it. End of story.

    On eBay, a colored PJ20 is asking over $1000.

    Yeah, but at this point, as someone pointed out, less colored PJ20s were pressed than Bennys. It's possible they will go for more than a Benny someday...

    I disagree, I don't care how much it's worth, I'll spin it, I just want to own it. This is coming from a guy who "plak-it'd" his wrigley hot dog poster even if it's worth more than 10 times what I paid.

    Possibly but the difference is another version of PJ20 vinyl exists, not for Benny

    I disagree. While there are (potentially) fewer colored PJ20's than Benny's, the content on each is not comparable. A mis-mash of demos, random live takes and studio stuff versus an incredible live acoustic performance in an intimate venue. I highly doubt a colored PJ20 will surpass a Benny.

    Love watching all these people getting their packages. I'm pretty sure mine is still in the warehouse so the excitement for me will last a little longer than others. Regardless of what I receive, this has been a lot of fun.

    Of course...that's why I said it's possible it could go for more. Even if they did a 're-press' of Benny, for say an anniversary or something, it would be awesome.
    I've seen Ed at Benaroya, I saw Mike's Sonic Evolution, it makes me sad I missed that show...it's an awesome venue, the show was meant for vinyl.
