jutta Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 To open or not to open. So I got my Limited Edition Boxset of The Resistance (after 6 months of searching) and it's still sealed. Wasn't expecting it to be. No I don't know whether to keep it sealed or rip it open and enjoy. I wasn't really in it for collecting purposes as I wanted the vinyl and the 5.1 mix to play. But now it's sealed.... I really don't know if it'll be worth something one day (or even now). It's #1577 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew mine was sealed when I bought it off eBay and I got it about 2 months ago, and it's still sealed sitting atop my dvd collection I have a feeling collecting purposes will keep me from opening it, unless I can figure out how to reseal it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's taken me so long to find a Limited Edition. Everyone kept saying just get the Deluxe set but I want the 5.1 mix specifically. I have a pretty good sound/HT setup in a dedicated room and was so looking forward to cranking it up. So what is it really worth these days? I was pretty happy with the price I paid.

Killer Rabbit Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 It's not really interesting or anything, but my Muse vinyl records (Showbiz => Black Holes & Revelations) are all from 2009 and were printed in the same place (CZ). The only record printed in the U.S. is The Resistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason I wanted it is for the 5.1 DVD as well I'm sure I'll open it soon, I think, because I do want to crank that baby up someday. I'm not sure how much it's worth now, but it's still a well sought after item I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My opinion is don't open it unless you have a great sound system to play the 5.1. If you want to listen to the vinyl you can always buy it separately.

saski86 Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Thought I'd add my collection to this thread. Acquired a few vinyls off ebay of late, in anticipation for my Pro-ject turntable that my hubby in getting me for my birthday in a week, at least he better be, or I'll have nothing to play them on;) Cd's A 5 studio albums Harpp DVD's Harpp, Hullabaloo, Absolution Tour Vinyl 12" Exogenesis 7" Butterflies and Hurricanes 7" Uprising 7" Invincible 7" Resistance 7" Muscle Museum 7" Unintended 7" Bliss 7" Newborn Really want The Resistance special edition box with the 5.1, no luck in finding it as yet though:(. Also going to order the 5 vinyl albums from Muse shop:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternallymused Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I know this is the collection thread so I probably shouldn't post Muse stuff for sale here, but does anyone know of a thread where you can list things for sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to listen to the vinyl you can always buy it separately. Well that's the problem, I do have a (IMHO) a great system. I've spent about $20k buying stuff from both locally and overseas and to me it sounds amazing. Adding a BASS EQ and turntable next and then a second SVS sub (or maybe even a Seaton Submersive). I was so close to opening it last night. Maybe I'll just have to search for another one - opened already that is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO I think I've got an excellent sound system... ... but maybe I'll wait until I come across a bargain, unsealed boxset I know this is the collection thread so I probably shouldn't post Muse stuff for sale here, but does anyone know of a thread where you can list things for sale? http://board.muse.mu/showthread.php?t=54143&highlight=selling+thread EDIT: I received my OoS Promo today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'll just have to search for another one - opened already that is If you can afford a $20k HiFi (what would that be in Great British Pounds? ) then do you really need to worry that the muse boxset may be de-valued by 20%? For me it would be worth at least £20 to open it, feel it & smell it - hell I'll pay another £10 to play it. What if - heaven forbid, that something is missing from inside the box crack it open...its seriously not going to do any good just sitting there! i opened the absolution box set as soon as i got it... jealous! I think they should be opened & admired, maybe displayed in frame. They would probably be worth more if sealed - but will you ever sell them? I opened mine & play them - and they sound better than the CD's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jutta Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 crack it open...its seriously not going to do any good just sitting there! i opened the absolution box set as soon as i got it... I'm leaning towards that now. It's not something I'm likely to sell anyway so I may as well enjoy it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
