Justin Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I paid over £100 for the Sweet Children EP many years ago, but thats because it was Sweet Children and stuck out like a sore thumb being omitted from my collection. This however, which pretty cool, i wouldnt buy for that amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringMoreKnives Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 That's pretty damn expensive. I really freaking want it though, but I'm broke because I spent my money on a 1000 Hours EP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CorneliusIII Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 the last one sold online for $285 so no its not a rediculus price...there were hardly any made and other than a couple copies Billie* dropped off at a store in oakland, only his close friends and family own it....I'm not taking advantage of anyone, I'm not a big green day fan thats why I think I shouldn't be the one to possess it..but it's value is its value and thats what I'm going to ask for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaymee!! Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 If you're not a big fan, why did you get the copy in the first place? Was it not to make a profit on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malleus Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 "What a fuckin ridiculous price." "yeah nice of you to list it for such a ridiculous price too." He was originally asking $285 but letting people bid. He changed it due to the reactions I'm assuming. I would not pay $285 for any record unless it was personally recorded for me, but if I owned a collection I might consider buying it. I don't know. It's still ridicuously overpriced.

Alan86 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 so no its not a rediculus price... Yes it is! Just because others have sold it for that price just means they were ripping people off too, it does not justify that price at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solongfromthestars Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I'm not bothered about owning this but even if I was, I'd never pay that for it. I've been a collector for years, there'll be a cheaper one some day. You just have to wait. He'll get his money though, some rich (and naive) collector will buy it.

Justin Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I got the Ultimate Vinyl Box Set.... It has Sweet Children in it. Basically, the ultimate box set are all reissues from Reprise. The original pressings of Sweet Children were on Skene, extremely limited. If i remember, the first pressing was about 1000, 2nd and 3rd about 600 each, and 4th about 1000, (they all have different covers). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
