So the vinyl art card is the same (small) size as the CD one? Huge bummer. I’ll pass. Thanks for posting though.

Some signed variations are sold out, but some are still available - quite a long time now.

Quite scary given the Bon Jovi-desaster.

I think the music of the spheres signed cd was up for a while as well. They must have sold thousands… I feel like they also always try to drive up the USA sales. Coldplay also been saying for a while this “may be their last full album release…” I never believe when bands say that but they may not make music for a bit after this (or not release an album) and just keep touring.

Actually, I'm surprised anyone would order these as an autograph collector.  I had intended to order a couple and then looked at the squiggles and decided not to.  In fact, I pretty much lost all interest in any of these signing ops that involve "signatures" that look like this.   Why even bother to promote a signed item if this is what you going to offer.  The great Minnesota Twins slugger Harmon Killebrew used to tell the young players that if someone asks you for an autograph to provide them with a signature that they can read.  I don't know when the trend started that an entire band can sign an item and not a single signature is legible.   For instance, you seldom see a set of Beatles or Stones signatures that aren't totally legible.  Do you think those guys didn't sign many thousands of times?   In fact, most bands were like that.  Not any more.  Perhaps a new "genre" of collecting has to be created that these types of signings fall under because these are NOT autographs.  End of rant.

Some truth to what you said (Killabrew always had a beautiful and very legible signature) but it's all about the sales and the charts, so quantity over quality and a squiggly line with a dot, is what we've come to expect anymore.

Thanks to the OP for the post and links

The signed items in the EU-Store got „sold out“ several times so far and got restocked again and again.

Man, that‘s not a good sign

If I had the opportunity to be a musician with people asking for or purchasing  my autograph I would feel honoured to provide the best signature I could ... every time... some of the legends still do this without fail ... John Lydon, Alice Cooper, Brian Johnson, Debbie Harry etc etc "I used to include JBJ in this list"... but when it comes to the Weeknd, Little Mix or the latest X-factor winner all we get is a 'meh' squiggle....

Crazy these haven't sold out yet... who wants to take bets on autopen, or just even crappier signatures?

I would think it would be a squiggle-fest of sigs but they may surprise you. The US store clearly states "AVAILABLE UNTIL JULY 1, 2024 AT 12:00 PM EDT OR WHILE SUPPLIES LAST." That's over 340 continous hours of availability, unless of course, supplies run out. Should be interesting...
