I got mine in 2016 for like $350 (it’s the japanese one though) but $1500-$3000 is abusive for a fan. But well, it’s for “charity” again.

I think this is a classier way to celebrate than to properly reissue the whole thing which would totally cheapen it imo. And we know Madonna will attend the opening wearing something outrageous which will make headlines. I can’t wait!

deathproof 10,608 Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Curious as to what the quality will be like. For the book and the displayed prints. Will they use the original images/negatives/artwork proofs? Or have those been lost and they have to reduce themselves to scanning the book? heikeeduardo and OceanBlue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pootz333 2,691 Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I would pay those prices if it meant getting a meet & greet pic where we can both be naked and recreate the hitchhiking pic. Otherwise, yawn, enough of these cash grabs. Dita became an English housewife. She's swimming with Louise Oriole. Get over it already. But I'm happy for all of you who can add this yo your collection and can't wait to see what she (doesn't) wear to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's been overly sexual lately, and I think she would welcome the SEX book to be re-released on a commercial level, but let's be realistic, it wouldn't be well received. I personally think it's best left as "limited". Re-releasing it on a commercial level just makes it less impacting.

He is in his 70's now and it's been said he hides because he's vain about his looks (he was stunning) and hates being old. We tend to forget that this book is as much his work as hers. an acquaintance of mine modeled for him a few years ago, he doesn't even let the crew inside his studio, he is behind closed doors and only the models and his closest team get to see him Ayham 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK, I REALLY, REALLY dislike stuff that's so limited and/or expensive that 95% of fans and supporters have no chance to obtain it. I know it's just a reissue and all, but I'm sure it will have some kind of crazy new desirable aspect to it. If it was just limited edition art prints that she signed, I probably wouldn't hate the idea as much, but there's something about this that rubs me the wrong way.

I don’t think this was designed for fans. Fans can easily obtain original copies on eBay and Discogs at affordable prices. This is more a marketing move and the books are meant for rich people who don’t sit on eBay to score a deal and the scope is to make money for her charity.

She’s at a point in her career that she should be making shit for fans, not exclusive crap for the elite. She’s become so out of touch it’s insane. Her fan base is dwindling. She’s supposed to be trying to get them back with this nostalgia deal she has going with Warner Bros. I’m sure she’ll be topless with something sheer below showing off her cooch at the opening. heikeeduardo, OceanBlue, nito84bcn and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact she is commemorating the anniversary in such a way I think is really cool and appropriate. Why do fans want a reprint when they already have the book? If you can’t attend I’m sure there will be some brochures at the exhibition that some savvy people will sell on eBay for $300. kesiak, tomasjohn and PlayPause 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregVsMatt 3,701 Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 As a collector of 35 years, i would not pay $1500-3000 as this is over and above my 'per item' personal limit. I think it's for high end collectors like the X-Static Process book was. I will chase the event merch though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed - I feel like the new books are being sold as 'art' rather than a commercial release too, hence the high prices that price out 90% of her fan base and auctions to benefit chartity rather than release on her website. I think the target audience is art collectors. BradleyPratt and PlayPause 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry customers who rant about the Erotica picture disc rerelease because the plastic wrap has wrinkles and forum trolls who have been hating one of best friends, Guy O, for years. If I were her, I wouldn't pay too much attention to them and wouldn't care about pleasing them either. So I'd rather reissue one of the most iconic things in my career and rip privileged art collectors off to fund hospitals in Africa. malleoni, pawn_shop_blues and kesiak 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
