I think that might just be the weirdest thread title I've ever written....
This has to be one of the best marketing strategies, everything has come at once a la Apple and it has to be the strangest buy... is it even a CD?
Anyone taking the risk? Thoughts?
The Well Versed wrote:Akomplice and masked hip hop personality/artist DOOM (formally MF DOOM) bring their worlds together for a collaboration project which is garnering attention fast due to the detailed look at the lack of details being disclosed (if that makes any sense). Since we’re seeing the same thing here and have not a clue what’s featured inside of the box lets review a bit about what we both now know. A mystery packaged in a nailed shut wooden crate which actually can only be opened through the use of a crowbar provided by DOOM x Akomplice. The wooden crate is detailed with laser inscribed logos of both DOOM and Akomplice so be careful not to completely try and maul your box once received as there seems to be artwork everywhere, including the handy crowbar. You may never find out who DOOM really is but, as for the collectors item crate…the countdown has begun for show and tell.
The project will only be available for purchase retailing at $49 USD for a 1-day (24-hour) window beginning June 8th from 9am PST ending the following day at 9am PST exclusively at the Akomplice online store. The contents of the box will not be revealed to those who have purchased it until delivered and opened.

I'm not sure if 'got the ? ' has anything to do with it lol
I'm unsure as to what I'm throwing £30-£40 at... can't say I do that every day... -
If I had say £200 in my bank then I'd go for it... shame I don't I guess, it's interesting though, could end up getting one hell of a good deal or some ? . The element of surprise makes me want it haha

Has to be the strangest box ever, here's what happened to those that bought it via email:
Those who purchased the mystery box received an email from Akomplice with the following message:Doom and Akomplice wrote://///

The Journey Has Begun.
SEE THE BELOW QUESTIONS.
EACH ANSWER SHOULD BE NO LONGER THAN 15 WORDS.
1. Are you an artist? If so of what type?
2. Are you in the music or fashion industry?
3. Your size?
4. How many Akomplice items do you own?
5. How many DOOM items do you own?
6. Were you born in the day or at night?
7. What do you think is in the crate?

Yeah, it was $49 for a 24 hour period and then they stopped making them… it was for one day only, which is why we were all up in hands as to whether to cop or not lol.
I decided against it, kinda glad I did, I'm not that much of a Doom head to have wanted a watch of his as well as a T Shirt and Cassette…. lol @ people who won't have a cassette player who will have copped this! -

Lol I'm a big Doom head and if i copped it i would have caught a pretty big sized L for having no clue on how to work a cassette player let alone have one. -
