THE HOPE CONSPIRACY / SUICIDE FILE split 7" - Dead Man's Hand Volume 1 - "MAYO" vinyl out of 15!!!
Ok, here is the deal with this record...
When we did the Singles Set (look for them in our other auctions) there were about 60 of the sets that had a black Hope Con / Suicide File split in them. There were also a lot of just very dark grey splits. Most of the black ones went to friends, and the bands, and so on. But, when they started showing up on ebay, people were claiming that the dark grey splits that they had (purchased from our table at Posi #s that year) were actually black. It just wasn't the case. Sure they were CLOSE to black, but since we knew where most of the black copies went, we knew they weren't really.
SO...when we got the records in, and got to the yellow vinyl, we saw that there was a lot of difference between each end of the pressing. They went from a really lemon-y yellow on one end, to the mayonaisse like color you see below. Since they were so close to white(ish) I decided to "stamp" the insides of 15 of the covers, and call this color "Mayo". Basically, we just didn't want people trying to claim that they had a version of a record that they didn't actually have. Unfortunately, the stamp is real hard to see, as it is a red stamper, and the covers are red. But it is there.
All of the "mayo" records were right around this color, and after the first 15, they started getting MUCH darker. So there is your little bit of history for the day.
Check out all the other versions of this split we have up for auction as well.
We are relisting this item due to the auction being pulled down the first time it ran.

Payment required within 7 days. Do not bid unless you can afford it. Seriously, check the balance on your Paypal account right now, and make sure you can cover your max bid. Do not bid if you will suddenly run out of money, or have some sort of "emergency." My car is currently broken down, so the excuse of "Dude, my car just broke down" is not going to fly.
