ONe dont see the point in buying more than one. I only have one copy of Appetite and the rest so(except the GH dont have it) why buy more than one copy.
incase you lose that ONLY copy.

Well i wont lose it as i wont let it out of my sight.

damn i feel really silly, for months now iv been saying i will buy 10. And send them to all the girls i have loved and never been with through the years, plus one for me and one for my good friend who introduced all of Guns n roses to me in the first place, he has now sadly lost patience.

But all you guys are being sensible saying like 2 or 5

Only one.

 confused Pssh, i thought you were a real fan Wink

shes not, she said she isnt even gonna see them if they go to brazil in 07.. pssshhh. psshhh.
how could yall only buy 1? ya cheap bastards (jokin) i mean.. its the most expensive album ever made.. and its GNR.. GNR... Embarrassed

I don't give a hot shit if it's the cheapest or the most expensive album ever made.?Roll Eyes

In case I lose that one copy (I don't see why or how that could possibly happen), I'll get another one, as simple as that. And as for my friends, if they want the album, they might as well buy it, my name is not Santa. Unless it's their birthday.

1 copy. A band has already "sold" the copies once they're in the record store. The soundscan numbers you see that make up the album charts are based on shipments to record stores and how many copies are ordered by retailers. Tell people the record kicks ass and recommend it if you like it, but to buy several copies for people only helps your pockets get empty faster.

I'll probably buy more than one copy. I know I'm going to buy one for me and one for my girlfriend. If there is different versions, I will buy them all. I've never done that with any other band and considering this is the biggest release (for me) in my life, I won't mind. BTW, I'm not buying a few copies to help put money in Axl's pocket, he's got enough money as it is. I'm buying them because this is my favorite band and I'm giving at least one or maybe two away. Plus to say that buying a few copies doesn't help sales, is wrong. When the copies that a store has run out, what do they do next?? ORDER MORE.  I would never do it to help out sales anyway, that would be pathetic if we all bought a bunch of copies trying to help sales.? It would seem like we didn't have any faith in the band to sell copies of the album on their own.

Not quite, what you see on the shelf is usually a very small part of said albums quantity at that particular store, especially when it's a band with GN'R's status. When it comes to a band of such magnitude, you don't "run out" of copies.

One.

I hope it will last as long as my AFD or Use Your Illusion 2 copies. I bought them in 1992/1993... the covers are lined, and abimered, but I don't want to change them, they are part of my life.

Does anyone ever get the same exact gift from a particular person every Xmas?  Something like a flashlight or whatnot, and it kind of becomes a recurring joke?  I think I may do that with CD.  My loved ones can expect CD as a stocking stuffer every year, or until the next album comes out anyway.

If the album comes out before christmas (which it sounds like it might) I will probably buy 4-5 copies for gifts, in addition to the one I get for myself.  It also depends on if there are any special editions available at certain stores.

I'm not gonna start giving away CDs. If a friend of mine wants it, he should go buy it himself.  Tongue

I'll probably buy 2 - one for me and a second that my friends can BORROW  Grin  I think it's a good promoting strategy.
