Longboxes weren't phased out for another couple of years, so the millions of people that bought Ten in 1991-92 in the US (because iirc, no other countries used longboxes) bought it in a longbox.
Endtimes indeed. That's the most baffling auction result I've ever seen, including, but not limited to, those auctions where people paid thousands for a potato that faintly resembled Richard Marx.

i see lots of japanese cd artwork that is longbox shape. is annoying when you have to fit it into square spaces.

Gatefold 2xLP of Pearl Jam's No Code was selling close to $300 -- down a bit these days -- i should have sold mine when it was a hotter commodity.

i made money on those. bought a couple when they were dollar bin records in the 90's and never played them. sold them later in ebay days.
― scott seward, Monday, 1 April 2013 19:44 (thirteen years ago)
yeah -- that was one of the very few albums i've ever purchased for the sole reason of resale -- never tempted to listen to it, i doubt i'd even play it with "your" turntable ;)
― suspecterrain, Monday, 1 April 2013 19:48 (thirteen years ago)
cool package though! with the weird art cards and everything.
― scott seward, Monday, 1 April 2013 19:49 (thirteen years ago)
i've noticed some of the opened ones are getting higher selling prices than sealed copies -- guessing buyers want visual proof that they'll get all that swag

no code is the best pearl jam record.

you would have to actually listen to every pearl jam album to make that determination though...

Nice find.
I don’t think it’s that optimistic. In addition to the typical trainspotters, a lot of Euro superclub DJs hype it.

The re-release can be got for £18 or so.

does seem crazy. they definitely missed a trick with not keeping the original artwork for the reissue though.

I had one of those, identical in every respect (including the 'near mint' quality'), except it had the usual orange lettering on the front, instead of turquoise.
It went for £250, which was nice, but blimey, what a difference a slight colour variation makes.
