Members PeelingPaint98 Posted March 4, 2007 Members Share Posted March 4, 2007 Sellers on ebay put vintage on pretty much anything that has been discontinued. I find that about as funny as all the rare listings on pedals that pretty regularly popup on ebay but meh . . . if it traps some fools, whateva . . .

Members PFDarkside Posted March 5, 2007 Members Share Posted March 5, 2007 A little OT, but my buddy and I are buying some old NES games on ebay (Should have done that about 5 years ago ) and I love when someone calls SMB3 rare. It's the best selling game of all time... for any system. Stuff like Boss CE-5 and MT-2 are the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr.Kickass Posted March 5, 2007 Members Share Posted March 5, 2007 ive heard the general rule of thumb is 20 years is vintage. the older you get the more often youll say, "vintage? thats not vintage! oh, right. im just old." a lot of people do use the term vintage liberally.

Members Agreed Posted March 5, 2007 Members Share Posted March 5, 2007 ive heard the general rule of thumb is 20 years is vintage. the older you get the more often youll say, "vintage? thats not vintage! oh, right. im just old." a lot of people do use the term vintage liberally. Well, 20 years is an antique for a car, but I'm goddamned if I'm going to look at a 1987 Camry and not laugh my ass off if it has an antique license plate.

Members gproud Posted March 5, 2007 Members Share Posted March 5, 2007 they are classic rock. always were. the stations here were playing them by the late 90s Yeah I know. It's just hard getting used to bands I listened to when they were new, what seems, not too long ago, being played on 'Classic Rock' stations alongside music from the 60-80's.

Members Wilbo26 Posted March 5, 2007 Members Share Posted March 5, 2007 Because it helps them get more money from clueless Ebayers that will pay anything to win that "uber rare vintage" pedal from other greedy bidders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Puddlegum Posted March 5, 2007 Members Share Posted March 5, 2007 To me, the term vintage is anything over 20 years old. Example, I have a Vintage Vantage, say that 3 times faster, VS600 from 1981. I consider that a Vintage. I have a discontinued Korg G3 from about 94 I think. A huge difference. I have no problem with stuff in the 80's being called vintage, it is 15+ years old...but 90's stuff, I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CapnMarvel Posted March 5, 2007 Members Share Posted March 5, 2007 Who thinks their second album was complete {censored}? Me. I said that about their first album, too. In 1994/5 I was too into 'Transmissions from the Satellite Heart' and Neil Young to waste my time with 'I DINMEANTA TREATCHA OHSOBAAD!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
