If anyone got a 2003 bootleg in their grab bag, I might be willing to trade. I'm coming back for the raffle.

The pop up shop was nuts. Got there early and waited over 2 hours in line. Freeeezzing outside here.
General concensus has been disappointment. They are moving SLOW and stuff is really pricey.
I'm grabbing lunch now and going back for the raffle at 4.

Lol at the 10c jacking the prices. I mean, good for them, if it's gonna bring in that price anyway, might as well go to the right people. Just funny to imagine the merch scalpers who waited in line just to have their profit margin yanked from under them

That ain't bad. Was that a raffle or did you buy it?
What did it cost you?

$50. You got to choose your t shirt size. L just sold out so I grabbed XL.

Today's free gift for a toy was a t shirt, sweatshirt or hat. It was well worth it. I hope it's similar tomorrow.
Well shit. Hooray for Ames Bros.
And they gave 3 stickers and a $10 gift card in their shopping bag which I just noticed.
The 11:00 early entry at 10c was a cluster fuck. I don't think I was in the building until 12:30ish. Many fans that brought a gift for early entry got jack shit - no early entry, not a coffee, not a sticker. I know it was for a charity but show some appreciation.

Raffle was cool.
Signed bass, signed LB deck, Both Seattle variants, about 10 Constitution Hall vinyl, blue Mad Season vinyls, uncut Wrigley cards, uncut Wrigley box, Falla boxes, Clear glow in dark vinyl (forgot which album but only 2 exist). Raised about $9000 in raffle tickets alone.

There was no distinction made between 10c and non 10c members.
It was what it was. The $50 mystery boxes were cool, and the expensive shit is worth it if you're...well, kind of dumb, like me. The benaroya I'd wanted for a while, and given that the pj 20 coloured vinyl goes for a grand on eBay, I understood the price tag on that one.
The most ridiculous price was $350 for the pj20 Patagonia backpack. That one really had me laughing.

Fuck that. Ten Club will bitch at people for reselling their merch at marked up, but fair market price, and then they go and do the same thing. Thanks Ten Club for all you do!

The email they sent out about the sale states: "Proceeds to benefit Pearl Jam’s Vitalogy Foundation and local charities."
I'm willing to extend them the benefit of the doubt on this one.

When has this ever happened? Plenty of stuff goes for market price on the Lost Dogs forums.

I suppose they go after people they see as violating these rules.
Ten Club wrote:You can trade and set a reasonable price here for Pearl Jam memorabilia as long as the item is not available elsewhere on the site.
No flipping* posters, or selling illegal items such as illegal bootlegs from bootleggers, homemade CDs and DVDs, items purchased marked "not for resale", etc.
No auctions are allowed. Links to yours or others' auctions or eBay or stores are not ok.
* Flipping is buying items (from Ten Club or merch booth, etc.) with the intent to resell for a profit.
But if they really had a problem with poster flipping they'dve kept the poster limit at 1 per person. What purpose does a two-poster limit serve other than to allow fans to walk away with one to keep and one to sell? And the fact that they sell them outside (I'm not complaining), just allows people who aren't even fans to buy two to resell later.
