betterbutterfly Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 Hey all, I'd rather give you guys first dibs on this stuff, knowing that you'll likely appreciate it a lot more than the eBay crowd. I have a copy of lo-fi b-sides I'm willing (begrudgingly) to part with. It's been opened but never played. If you're interested (SERIOUS interest only please) e-mail me at [email protected] Seeing as only 1000 were made, it's not going to go cheap, so let me know what you're willing to buy it for. I'll be taking offers for the week, and if I don't get any serious ones I'm putting it on eBay. Thanks for your interest guys.
spring90 Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loser_Anthems 35,000 orange ones, 500 blue ones.
betterbutterfly Posted February 4, 2008 Author Posted February 4, 2008 You guys are thinking of Loser Anthems. This is lo-fi b-sides, the limited 1000 print release that went out with Underdogs.
Ravenous megin-sane Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 how much are we talking about here?
betterbutterfly Posted February 4, 2008 Author Posted February 4, 2008 Every time I've seen it go up on eBay it's been between $200-$300, which is ultimately the only reason I'm parting with it at all, because I desperately need the money. Since no one really replied, I did put up a week long auction on eBay to see what the response would be there. I know it's a high price, but I don't think I've ever seen it go for less than $200. The eBay auction is here: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt....cSELL.m315.lVI If it doesn't sell there, I'll definitely consider selling it cheaper, but I guess I'd like to see if I can get top dollar for it. I know that makes me a terrible person, lol, but I need the money pretty badly.
hum-an-ole Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) Wanting as much as you can get doesn't make you a bad person, since you are selling it because you need money. I hope you get what you're looking for. Edited February 4, 2008 by Christing
betterbutterfly Posted February 5, 2008 Author Posted February 5, 2008 i mostly just hope that it will go to a good home, with an owner who will appreciate it, and like, display it under glass or something, lol.
stephen Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 There were 5000 copies of Lo-fi-B-sides made. 1000 copies of Avalanche on vinyl.
betterbutterfly Posted February 7, 2008 Author Posted February 7, 2008 thanks for the clarification on that. i have the vinyl as well, and i'm always sort of getting them confused.
stephen Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 No problem. Got both myself and both are signed. Good luck with your auction.
Prometheon Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 Hi Ashley! That's pretty much all I've got, as I am also broke. Good luck finding someone to buy it.
Audio of Being Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 I am also out of the running. And I really really want it ;)
betterbutterfly Posted February 7, 2008 Author Posted February 7, 2008 well it's at $200, and the number of watcher's keeps on going up, so I suspect that it will get higher at the very end. Also. . . Hi Owen!

matrix Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Do you go around looking for posts Meg's made, just to take a verbal (or in this case, a written) jab at her? Grow up.
the old guy Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 I played on Lo-Fi and I don't even have a copy....shit, I don't even know what's on it!!!
betterbutterfly Posted February 9, 2008 Author Posted February 9, 2008 lol. Geoff, it's only 3 songs: fated (my personal favorite MGB tune), enjoy the silence and an early take on born to kill. I'm beginning to think that no one from the original band has this, as I believe even Matt once said he doesn't have a copy.
Audio of Being Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 Do you go around looking for posts Meg's made, just to take a verbal (or in this case, a written) jab at her? Grow up. is that in reference to me?
matrix Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 is that in reference to me? No, sorry for the confusion. I should have quoted the post after yours.
matrix Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 thanks for clearing that up. No harm intended.
