Default Sell the Pumpkins Shirts?

Hello fans of the board, I recently came across and bought the Arising shirt that was only sold on the website years ago. This being one of 2 shirts I'm aware of that I'm missing. The other of which being the gish shirt that was only sold on the pumpkins site years ago. Well, I've pondered selling them all off quite a few times the past few weeks, thinking about the going back to school and all. And I just wanted to see what some members thought would be a good price for the whole lot. Or if it would be smarter to part the whole thing out. I may add, I've got probably 65-70 different smashing pumpkins shirts. All different in some way, some are similar like a long sleeve and short sleeve version or something similar. Been collecting these for over 10 years. Shirts range from the gish years all the way up until the end. Won't find any zwan or solo Billy stuff in here either. Any feedback would be helpful, thanks, JT

Don't sell them. You'll regret it.

You ever loan someone some book or dvd, and feel reminded, compulsed, to revisit the thing? At least you get the stuff back.

I've been watching, and searching for what seems forever, i've seen the boots, and I avoid them. I admit I probably do have a few boots in there that I'm just not aware of, but i've gone so far as to get 3 different versions of the 666 shirt, short sleeve, then a long sleeve that was all black before i finally got the "official" one.

sounds like you've put a decent amount of effort into building the collection. in that case, i say don't sell.

p.s. i have the all black long sleeve also.

I sympathize with your dilemna. I would sell some and keep your favorites. And if you're selling, I would love to buy the Siamese Dream white shirt with the SP heart on the front. I can't find one anywhere.

Just to give another idea at how many i've got, i have the long and short sleeve version of this one, and same story for the mission to mars shirt.

Favoritie one i'd have to say is the lull cover one. I think it was the vieurphoria (spelling?) dvd that a kid held it up, i saw it pop up on ebay once and sniped it for a measely 7-10 bucks, shirt is well worn, but i've taken care of it since i took up ownership. There was a 3 month period during my senior year of high school where i wore a different one everyday for 3 months, never wearing the same one twice.

You sound really attached to them - don't sell. There are other ways to make a quick buck.
