easystreetrecords .. Many have been thinking that this beauty might come tomorrow on the final episode of the #25daysofpearljam, but nope, it's today! Feast your eyes on #pearljam #liveatbenaroyahall 4 LP #redvinyl set with poster.

Okay, these Easy Street prices are officially insulting now, lol. $2000 for a Benny (unnumbered promo)? $150 for Let Me Sleep, and $500 for RVM?? Wtf?? $400 I could see, but damn.... Where is Easy Street getting these albums? Unless they are actually acquiring them through eBay themselves and then reselling for only a small profit, this is nuts and not cool. If that actually is what they're doing, then that would be even worse, because they are just taking them right out of the hands of fans and reselling them to fans for even higher prices, which would be the definition of flipping.... Anyway, whatever, it's not like I'm buying any of these, but Christ, I thought Easy Street had vinyl people's best interests in mind kind of (while still maintaining a good business of course). But making this stuff so expensive contributes to raising the prices for those items right across the market, not just at their store.

besides your entire post being spot on can someone please explain to me why this stuff is so expensive? rare? limited quantity?
Might PJ goods be donated from band to Easy Street as act of benevolence for the store to make money (albeit at inflated rates)? Might tomorrow be an in-store performance by Ed or the full band?
So is Easy St getting these from someone in the Pearl Jam inner circle/mgmt? Kinda disappointing if they are and are fine with the markups. Whoever is setting these prices is on crack.
Today is day 20 of the #25daysofpearljam and it's a special one! Offered up is an original vinyl copy of #motherlovebone #shine complete with the 13 pieces of memorabilia that arrived with it. There's the original fan club letter from Andy that talks about #apple album and the forthcoming tour (sigh), merch catalog, original hand written note from fan club (from Danny?), copied #rocket articles after Andy's passing, a copy of an autographed a 8x10 and more
So now copies of signatures sell for $500? That's insane
I will never own Benny. Ridiculous prices at Easy Street, eBay, etc, etc.
I wish they'd just reissue it. I just want to play the fucking album.
I probably won't own Benny either...they should re-release it on silver vinyl for the 25th anniversary or something. Did a long hard search and was able to get Let Me Sleep for $20 about 5 years ago.
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.
That's does seem expensive? Don't they usually top out around $1200 to $1600 on Ebay in sealed mint condition? I don't think I've seen one go for $2k before.

My guess is one of the variants of PJ20 vinyl.
This was my guess too. Some sort of PJ20 Vinyl.
Now I'm thinking a signed copy of Live at Easy Street CD for $4000.00
Well, it looks like we've come full circle in our #25daysofpearljam, back to Ten, where it all started 25 years ago. Actually, today predates the release of Ten by a bit, it's called "Reeenk Roink," and it the advance CD of Ten that the band gave out to press, radio & retail. Best guess is there were 50-200 of these made and they were handed out spring-summer of 1991. Check out the piece on twofeetthick.com for more info. Thanks to everyone for coming along on this promotion with us! Thanks mostly to #pearljam for the 25 years of great music- here's to 25 more! #reeenkroink #disp001152

DAMN! I'm glad/lucky the record store I found mine in wasn't so greedy.
These prices seem just a bit off to me.

I can't picture them owning a Reeek?
Adam over @ Easy Street probably owns a Reeek. Would be shocking if he sold it, if he had it for today's Easy Street PJ day.
