How much would you pay?

[Scabbie]

OK, this is a bit of a silly thread but I'm bored so I'm interested to know how much you would you pay (or what worldly possession would you trade) for Chinese Democracy, complete with 18 tracks (recorded in surround sound), a re-recording of AFD, bonus DVD 'The Making of', a personal foreword and apology from Axl for the delays to the album, delivered to your dwelling for xmas all contained in a crystal glass casing?

For all of this I'd have no problems paying ?50 (almost $100).



 

[echrisl]

At this point, $20 ... and the hell with Axl.

[SON OF A PREACHER]

450 euros

[budnc6921]

I'd pay about probably 17.99 plus tax.

[chris83]

I would pay 100 Euros only for that it would be released within the next 3 month! For your "Chinese Democracy Set" ......hmmm.....perhaps 30 - 40 ?!

[Tj]

Aaaah that would be fantastic! I can't even begin to imagine how happy I would feel if that happened. I'm expecting just a simple CD, maybe released next year. But all that? By Christmas? Easily ?50, like you said, but I think I'd go up to ?100, possibly higher  If it was a case of trading any worldly possession, I think I'd probably hand over my 20GB music...thing. I dunno what it's called, I only just bought it. Actually I could just take it back, get a refund, and have my ?199 back  I think the reason I'd be willing to pay so much, is...hmm, it's just that none of the music I've bought over the last couple of years has genuinely satisfied me. Some of it has been fantastic, but I don't need to explain to some of you guys how much I want this album. I know some of you aren't too fussed, and at the end of the day I'm not going to cry if it never comes out, but it'll be such a significant event to me, when I finally get to walk into MVC, pick up Chinese Democracy, stroll to the counter, wearing a Gn'R shirt and a big grin (and maybe some trousers), and maintain that grin whilst the shop assistant swipes my cards etc.  I really can't wait until that day

It's funny to think about actually buying and listening to cd,

-it's like the future is uncertain, the end is always near
-but in the distant future i will the cd hear

[SADIS]

Like someone said before 100 Euro's.....

but if you are working for the record company that is going to release the record I'd say I would pay 20 euro's... 

[Nytunz]

ca 200 kroner
 

[norway]

that would be just a little more for what a cd actually cost,

no need for an apologie, just give us some music man

wonder if it will be a little more than the previous standard, hope for something enchansed

[mikegiuliana]

is this the plan to get out of the 13 million dollar hole??

I would pay what an album costs..  I'm sorry but these topics are so over used..

[Scabbie]

I'm sorry but these topics are so over used..

So don't post against them! I haven't seen any along the lines of what people think Chinese Democracy is worth to them.

As for the 13 million buck hole, well, I don't know what the record company are planning, but I do hope they put as much effort into the delivery of the final product as has gone into the recording of the album - what was dissapointing about Welcome to the Videos (DVD) is the lack of the special features. I'd rather pay ?50 for 'the works' as opposed to ?15 for a straight copy of the album in a bog standard case.

I said it because I've answered these a few times on other forums, it seems to be a favorite.. I replied because I was in the thread.. I just want to buy it off the shelves.

[Scabbie]

Fair enough I don't really use the other forums. 

But I think there are enough hardcore fans out there to make up a substantial amount of revenue for the record company without having to shift a large volume of records.

[Boromir]

I would pay 50euros to buy it twice

In a crystal glass casing?  That's pushing it just a wee bit isn't it?  I'd be happy with Axl delivering the cd in person.    

Seriously though, I'd pay the going rate of a cd for chinese democracy, which is about 15 bucks, give or take a little depending upon where you buy.  If it's a double album, or with bonus features like a dvd or something, I'd pay a little more because you're getting a little more.  It's just an album, it's nothing important.  I love Guns N' Roses, their music has meant a lot to me, but, the album is not the end all be all of human existence.   If it's never released, I'd be cool with that.
