For those who have picked up the Bong Load reissues, do they have a hype sticker or anything else that will make it clear they aren't boots? A few of my local shops have routinely carried boots of these but I have no interest in that. I'm not sure i care to pay $40 for these either, but if there are in fact $20 versions coming shortly, some variant freak would likely want these versions if I came across them and picked them up and just got the other versions later, yeah? Yes, your ability to flip for large profits could be huge or they could look great framed to show off at parties tonyfranciosa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant, its not like we'll be seeing them in a month or so because they are being pressed now or are in his queue. I'm sure they will happen with Bong Load at some point.

spaceghost Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Not sure what was in the Reddit thread, but I received this info regarding Figure 8 from Bong Load: "We take great care in our new pressings, just as we did with the originals. Odelay is longer than Figure 8 and it sounds (sounded) fantastic. Sticking with that philosophy, we are super happy with how the new figure 8 pressing sounds. Tom Rothrock (bong load owner) produced figure 8 and we also had the original mastering engineer do some passes on our hi res source before the metal was cut and we were all very happy with the result."

aju2streets Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Just a heads up they charge your card right away. I decided to go ahead and buy Sam's Town even though its probably $15 too high. If they put as much care as they said they did into these a 2xLP 45rpm copy should sound incredible and get $50 worth of playing time though.

BrainGilliams Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 From their homepage... Thank you for coming to our USA 10am online store sale. In order to fulfill your order in a timely fashion, we are placing a limited quantity of each title (Odelay, Mellow Gold, XO and Figure 8) in the store today. Once these are shipped, we will announce the next sale date both here and on our social media outlets. If you would like to receive an email with our next on-sale date, please sign up on our mailing list after you enter the website. So I guess more copies will eventually go up for sale in their online store. lethalenforcer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joefritz Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I started furiously refreshing my browser at 1, and managed to get a copy of both Mellow Gold and Odelay. Beck is the only musician I would do this for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryantark Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Mellow Gold arrived in SoCal already via Bong Load. Not 100% flat, but close (it's hot outside) 170g Dead wax: BL12A silverload/MRP0366-A SS160415 There is a symbol before SS, circle with initials in it? Listening to first few songs, nice thick bass on Loser, overall mix is solid to my ears. Minuscule surface noise. Deceptively dark color at first, looks nice in better light. highfives 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im no expert. Song is a tad over 3 minutes with the harmonica solo. I believe this is the regular version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A report from another site is that it's the original version of Pay No Mind. skycriesmary 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
