The Melvins Classifieds: SALES, AUCTIONS, and TRADES.

[Yanayaya]

Thanks a million BK.  Still undecided, but will give it a great deal of thought.  Like I said, I like the evidence that it was banned.  It has never bothered me.  It happened very quickly, because I bought it when it was released.  This leads me to believe that there are a good many that have been subject to the hair-dryer or some other method.  I would implore you to post the pics with these instructions to a topic of it's own!  This way we can see who is successful!!

Congrats Camaroballa!!! Lysol is one of the best Melvins things you can own on vinyl and in my humble opinion, It is one of their most interesting and important albums. I wish I read this years ago when I tried to just use my fingernail to remove the tape. I really wanna try your method but since I already sorta fucked up the corners on my tape and used scotch tape to hold them down I don't think mine would come out well. Nice Beatles comparison, however I don't think any copies of Lysol were released without the tape no? Most folks who have one were smart enough to take the tape off when they first purchased it. I love the cover art too, recently I found a seller on ebay selling 1920's lithographs of the same pic So I bought one and had it framed for my living room. It came out rather well...

Thanks DanHalen. Yeah thats a sweet lithograph. Ive actually seen the iron/metal sculpture of the indian/horse on ebay. Think it was like $50000.

Just to clarify the Lysol, it was released uncensored without tape. It was pulled after a couple weeks/month and sent back to boner. Thats when the tape and marker were put on all remaining first pressings, then reshipped out and sold through mail order. The second pressings have no tape, just a blank black border on the right side.
Sealed uncensored lysol's have sold in the past, i saw a few on popsike.com
If it were to pop up on ebay again right now, i'd estimate it would go for $300-400.

Definitely my most favorite Melvins release. Im glad i was able to successfully do the job. Hopefully others will attempt it and succeed just like i did.

This is really nice looking, great frame job (I like the double mat and frame combo). 

Do you recall the sellers name?  I kind of want one...

i've pretty much come to the realization that i will never own Shit Sandwich. I was working today, set an alarm to remind my myself 5 mins before the auction ended. Went outside to place a mobile bid with 90 seconds left, couldn't connect to ebay, auction ends and shit sandwich sells for $162 
most pissed i've been in a while, for a fucking 7" with nothing on it.
Thanks ATT, and thanks Melvins for making me a complete fuck-tard, chasing every Tchotchke you ever released
Maybe its for the best, keep saving that money.

Oh well

It wasn't titled "Shit Sandwich" for nothing my friend...

i beg to differ.
This release separates the girly types from the men.
Pure art for arts sake.

I reckon The Melvins just had a bloody good laugh at everyone who bought it then ,
and now an even bigger laugh at how much people pay for this . Art ? maybe . Joke ? certainly .
if you want to pay hundreds to be part of the blague , enjoy .
definitely something I would never own for more than 10 dollars , but I do have a good chuckle for FREE
when I see the price others pay for this shit sandwich

I agree!  Do you really need to be the butt of this joke??!!

[Yanayaya]

Does anyone here have:  It's Shoved/Forgotten Principles and/or Way of the World/Theme  they want to sell?  I am missing these two from the 1-12 Singles released.

Now I just need It's Shoved/Forgotten Principles  Anyone willing to help me out?!  I have ca$h, or Melvins Solo EPs, or a couple of Ambient Takeover singles for trade at the moment.
