Title: Clown test pressings for sale
Post by: Buckwheat on November 06, 2013, 02:39:10 PM
Haze XXL was selling the clown test presses at an art show for 2000Euros.  I think that must be a record.

this is what my computer says when i read the page? i don't know.




thankfully i already own everything on that wall apart from the tests and hammerhead 12", so didnt buy any of it, otherwise i would have had a fucking breakdown trying to buy it all.
especially that bride variant.

ha tests were 2000 euros total, not each.

clown is tri colour, was i guess 200 copies.


i don't know how i would have misread that? although i have been called stupid before , and i trust what people say, so...


we need ernie to set us right

Look at page 8, Ernie says that he meant total not each.

they were 2000 each, but you had too buy the complete set of 4.

i didnt have enough cash on me. only had 6000 euros and they said no deal.

So was it the speculated upcoming batch of four or just the first two and the two known to be confirmed?

i didnt take to much notice,
3 clown test pressings, so think thats the 3 so far, show kinks version was tri colour, so regular must be on its way soon.
and the other test was for the helmet split.

8 grand for the set of 4. no splitting the set either. i only wanted the helmet split.

Whoa. I am reading this right ?
8 000 Euros ( eight thousand ) .
that is about 11, 500 canadian dollars give or take a bit .
that is bleeding mental .
And whoa whoa whoa .
O.E . you were carrying like ten grands on you for merch ?  Damn I wish I had your roll.
I am trying to mug grandmas to get enough scratch for the bloody helmet split .
Going back to school in your mid thirties ain't cheap, neither are Melvins vinyl habits .
