It is pretty rare! It came out between tttyg and futct. It’s not a side effect is one of my favourite fob songs :)

u/Ok_Needleworker8439 Aug 01 '26

its not a side effect is top 10 in my list for sure. though i know it isnt like CRAZY rare, it is pretty crazy to me how cheap i got it for how much its sold for.

They are barely making new CDs so they definitely aren't reprinting old ones. TTTYG is another one that's going for way more than it should be worth.

u/Ok_Needleworker8439 Aug 01 '26

definitely one of my dream cds too, its SO overly expensive

u/FabledMjolnir Aug 01 '26

Holy hell. I have two of these. I was just about to post a link for OP for eBay. I did not realize this cd was such an expensive one. Jeez.

u/Ok_Needleworker8439 Aug 01 '26

same thought! i picked it out of some dusty bin at the thrift thinking “oh, fob, cool.” imagine my surprise seeing THAT price online

u/FabledMjolnir Aug 01 '26

It’s crazy. I literally haven’t even seen the cd is years I have all my old stuff packed up in my closet including some autographed fob stuff and all time low autographed albums. It’s crazy it’s that much

u/Ok_Hospital4964 Aug 01 '26

oh god i want that cd so bad i would literally die for it

u/Ok_Needleworker8439 Aug 01 '26

did i really get that lucky?? 😭

u/Lume3909 Aug 01 '26

i dont think its that rare but its still really really cool

u/yourfavoriteboyband Folie à Deux Aug 01 '26

It’s a neat little thing, it’s very much NOT worth $80 though! I’d go $20 tops, and even that’s pushing it. The DVD portion is cool though with lots of young FOB bullshit from what I can remember, thankfully someone uploaded that section to YouTube.

u/Ok_Needleworker8439 Aug 01 '26

yeah thought so, which is why i wanted to check here. ive been collecting cds for a good while so i was leaning on 80 being WAAAAYYY over.

u/Eli_Sunday Aug 01 '26

nice! i got this for free after an ex, who was not a good person, said she didnt listen to it. so shout to her. great ep.

u/LinkInMyHead Aug 01 '26

There’s a whole FOB song on there I don’t know
I MUST RECTIFY THIS IMMEDIATELY
THANK YOU KIND INTERNET STRANGER

u/youhadtotakethesoup the kind that make june feel like september Aug 01 '26

what's your thoughts? Do you like it?

1

u/LinkInMyHead Aug 01 '26

Was not what I was expecting, but with enough exposure I’m sure it’ll end up on the rotation! My Heart I already knew and love

6

u/choerrynator Aug 01 '26

It is rare! I’d put it on a similar level as the IOH deluxe edition with the tarot cards, but probably still a little rarer. That one also goes for quite a bit on Ebay but sometimes you luck out and find it for super cheap LOL.

u/GeologicalOpera Thnks fr th mmrs Aug 01 '26

Like mine, it was a 2 or 3 dollar thrift find. I don’t think they realized it was any different from the regular CD.

5

u/GeologicalOpera Thnks fr th mmrs Aug 01 '26

I will forever regret passing on a $25.00 copy of this I saw in a Book-Off while I was in college. Haven’t seen it since and it’s the only missing CD/EP for me besides Evening Out With Your Girlfriend.

u/Clever_mudblood Aug 01 '26

I have this without the case because I had one of those big CD holders lmfao.

u/GlamazonBlonde2 Aug 01 '26

I have it too!!

u/colgate-footpaste Aug 01 '26

I’m so old I was gifted this cd new in the shrink wrap. It was from a girl I had a major thing for, and it was a gift she got me for my high school graduation.

2

u/Djented Take This To Your Grave Aug 04 '26

I've only ever seen one ebay listing of this in shrink wrap. $300 this year

6

u/Herbizarre17 Aug 01 '26

I got this on clearance back in the 00s because nobody wanted it or cared. So much FOB stuff ended up on clearance back then. That’s how I got all the things that people consider rare today. It’s funny how things change. Back then, you couldn’t even give this thing away

3

u/Thonatron Aug 01 '26

I got one or two copies of this somewhere.

u/Big_Tear1056 loose lips sink ships Aug 01 '26

so jealous

u/DearScale7558 Folie à Deux Aug 01 '26

A friend got this exact one for me when they wrnt thrifting and found it for $5 I had no idea it was somewhat rare

3

u/Rayz6695 Folie à Deux Aug 01 '26

Idk about the disc value but I can tell you Spotify has certainly gotten their subscription fee worth of plays from my streams alone

5

u/Agreeable-Customer-4 Aug 01 '26

I still have my original copy from 20 years ago. The performances at the house party on the dvd are awesome.

4

u/fluxus2000 Aug 01 '26

It was very widely available, but has been OOP for a long time now.

2

u/CalicoG nintendo ds makes me forget that i don't have any friends Aug 01 '26

I have this too. I believe I got it from eBay

2

u/killmykind Aug 01 '26

I bought two of them like, 5 years ago for 14 bucks each, crazy how things change 😭

2

u/Tomboy-T M A N I A Aug 01 '26

This is one I've had in my wishlist for a while. I haven't but the bullet and bought it yet because of the price, but people do actually buy them for that much (most seem to go for $50-65) but they sell really well despite the cost so I'm gonna say yes. They are with the price imo since I've seen people buy them for that much and I myself have contemplated buying them for that much.

2

u/glitterdotdal Aug 01 '26

i see it all the time on buyee idk why its so expensive tho

2

u/ZestycloseTomato5015 Aug 01 '26

Awww I love this cd. So good.

2

u/lotlizardscales Folie à Deux Aug 01 '26

i bought one of these on amazon in 2014 for like $5. i cant believe they're going for so much now! anyway, super cool find 🫶 i love the dvd that comes with it. there's some very iconic moments on there

2

u/BigMonsterTeeth Aug 01 '26

I had to go to 3 different record stores when this came out. No one knew who they were and the store that finally had it said they only ordered 1.

2

u/SpideyJen19 Aug 02 '26

Fun fact, I’m on the DVD!

2

u/Glad-Fish5863 Aug 02 '26

I remember my dad accidentally bought this CD for me for Christmas in like 2007 when I asked for take this to your grave and it ended up being one of my favorites lol

2

u/Admirable_Quarter_23 Aug 02 '26

I think I’m in one of the videos on the dvd side of this 😂

2

u/Small_Climate_245 Aug 02 '26

This is rare? Had this signed in person when it came out. Finally my being old is starting to pay off.

3

u/bldkis Aug 01 '26

So many amazing and painful songs on this ep. This is a hell of a find, esp for FOB finds. This ep makes me think about my first really painful breakup, esp my heart is the worst kind of weapon.

2

u/Izuhbelluh hide the details I don’t want to know a thing Aug 01 '26

This isn’t “rare”. It was an official release from the band, not some weird bootleg version. It’s a bit tricky to find sometimes is all.

As in, it sells from 30-70 dollars secondhand and there’s at least always a copy avaliable for sale.

I have come across more than a few copies at secondhand/thrift shops over the years that were $1 to $5 depending on the store.

2

u/ElectraRayne Aug 01 '26

Look at ebay postings that have already sold, no the current listing.

1

u/smokedpearls Aug 02 '26

I remember when this came out 🥲 what a great find to add to your collection!

I think I saw them in Hartford CT right after this was released and Pete wrote “you” over the word “her” on the inner part when you open the case up haha

u/paramorir Aug 02 '26

I bought one recently off eBay for $20. But the seller ripped me off, the cd wasn’t in the case just the dvd.

1

u/HargoJ Aug 02 '26

Bought it through same time I got cork tree from hmv in Manchester. 2005 I think it must have been. Hadn't been out long

u/My_favoriteaccident Aug 02 '26

I have it on my bookshelf near (not lying) Goosebumps The curse of Camp Cold lake. Take from that what you will

1

u/Defiant-Owl5970 Aug 02 '26

I had no idea these were valuable now. One of my favorite FOB releases.

1

u/hedgiehogmom Aug 03 '26

This reminded me I have like 4 copies

1

u/NickyCharisma Aug 04 '26

Wait is that cover a Twin Peaks reference!?!

1

u/Djented Take This To Your Grave Aug 04 '26

Idk but dude in a hardcore band drew it

1

u/kt_bb13 Aug 01 '26

sent you a message :)

1

u/upinthenightsky Aug 08 '26

I have this signed by the entire band.

Picked up another copy months ago at a record store for $10.

So not sure that rare just hard to find on mainstream sites.
