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

15 hundo for a CDR... talk about bootlegs... I will never understand the obsession with reenk roink
Agreed, I'll also never understand why people pay almost a thousand dollars for the Bennaroya Hall LP's when the legit, good sounding CD's can be had for $20.... the Pearl Jam memorabilia train may never have been more out of control than it is now

Because its on vinyl across 4 colored lp's....and it's got that "Limited" word attached to it.
And so you see, I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you.

That and it actually is limited. To around 2000 (probably a little more to most limited things having extras made). It's not that many, so it creates a situation where way more poeple want one than are available. Had the pressing been 5000 or more, they wouldn't go for that kind of money.
I have spent some money in some crazy ways but I don't think I could ever pony up that amount for a CD. people aren't even sure about the lifespan of CDs... if they will even be playable years later.... but it is a nice collectable to have.

Me neither. To me, it is the craziest piece of PJ merch by far. Boggles my mind that anyone would care about it much at all, let alone enough to spend $1500 on it. And that's not an unprecedented price I don't think. Didn't the last one that sold go for the same? Anyway... Obviously some people think the price is worth it, but I just don't get it. I don't even find the story or circumstances behind the existence of Reenk Roink particularly interesting.

Its a test pressing for the album that started it all.... I can see the importance and collect-ability.

I can't. If there were only one of them or maybe 5 of them or something I could. Or if it were a vinyl test pressing.

Not a CDr its pressed.
Yah. I think people forget CD burners weren't really available in 1990/91. I remember them starting to come out in the mid 90's, and started to get widely used by people by the end of the 90s. I think by the book the technology was invented by 1990/91, but is was so new and expensive that no one was using it yet. Everything back then was pressed.

Since there wasn't a vinyl release in the states for the initial Ten release.... these are as good as you can get.

I used to work with a guy that had a Reeenk Roink. He accidentally GAVE IT AWAY in the mid-90s when he was clearing out some duplicate cds. I think he bundled together 10 cds for £20 or something like that.
Some lucky bugger got a cheap Reeenk, I wonder if they even knew what they'd got. I'd still be crying about it if I'd done that!
