   Fingers crossed the remaining 10YOTO box sets find worthy homes!

   I'm thinking about going through a few of the old threads on here when I have a bit more time, to try and assemble a list of forum homies who weren't able to get it at the time and give them a heads up, so hopefully they won't miss out again. Any other suggestions that might help get these babies into the hands of longtime fans (rather than social media hypebeasts/resellers)..?

   I just saw this!!!!!

   I missed out the first time, and I wouldn't have guessed that Thes had any left over.

   I'm really quite excited about this! Although I'm already kinda nervous considering how fast all the stock went last time Thes put new items up (vinyl/beanies/hats etc). That sh!t was sold out within a minute or 2. I can only imagine how quick I'll need to be for this one...

   Yes!!!! what a gift from Thes! Definitely thought that when I (along with many others...) missed out on this, it would never bless my ears, but looks like there's a chance!

   I'm nervous as hell but my bank account and fingers pressed to my keyboard are staying strong...

   I missed out on an original the first time around, too.

   I paid a bit of a premium and found a secondhand vinyl set this past year with the bonus of a checking account signup. Thanks, Chase Bank.

   That said, I'm down to get a mug set for sure and support the man.

   We could also potentially reach out to Thes and see if he'd be up for a forum presale.

   I know he doesn't frequent these parts much anymore but I bought a Fun DMC hoodie off him that way in the past.

   Maybe YoYoPo has the connect?

   Oof. A forum presale would be good. I remember thinking about buying it first time round but didn't. Birthday coming up soon!!

   Are you guys sure that's what that is? I missed out the first time around, and would definitely have to get it now.

    Yeah, Thes posted one of those short video things on Instagram showing a few of the 10 Years of Thes One boxes.

    A forum presale would be doooope. You know that no-one on here is gonna be reselling that treasure.

    Oh good, a few people have already seen this...

    I've sent out a couple of messages to other longtime forum members, so hopefully everyone gets a(nother) chance this time around.

    I'm assuming that this time round there will be really limited amounts. I also reckon what the laconnection says will be near the truth.

    Yeah there's a lot of interest on Thes's insta post. Will have to be checking it daily now, at a minimum!!

    Does anyone remember how much Thes was selling them for the first time?

    I expect there will be another announcement giving time and date for the sale. You'll still need to look alive and stay sharp though.

    As Thes himself has stated in the past social media hype doesn't necessarily = sales. Just imagine if all those followers had purchased all the albums, etc. ... Not to judge anyone's level of fandom, but my impression is there's a ton of people on instagram, who're extremely vocal, but have the attention span of humming birds (i.e. need to be reminded daily and spoon fed store links).

    Regarding amounts and pricing: there was a total of 250 box sets manufactured, 150 of which were made available at the incredible, low low price of $99 (at cost! Thes didn't make money off it!!!) back in 2013 and sold out within ~45min (seems like an eternity compared to the 2minutes the last batch of hats and beanies lasted, doesn't it? )
    Subtracting personal copies, those given to friends and family and so forth, I'd be surprised if there were more than a few dozen remaining at this point..?
