djghost1976 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 More copies going up tomorrow. And if Waxwork really did cancel the multiple flipper orders, then good for them. Glad they put this statement out - even if in hindsight some of their releases are on the pricey side: http://waxworkrecords.com/blogs/news/the-thing-update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakethegriff Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) I read a comment on FB that made me LOL; "I'm holding out for that 3rd pressing" Edited February 14, 2017 by jakethegriff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallowken78 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Kind of lame that they're repressing the deluxe in the exact same colorway - ruins the limited nature of it, in my opinion. Especially considering how overpriced it was. andrewlucas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Yeah, part of the fun is collecting "limited" vinyl. It annoys me a bit when people bitch about not getting something that was limited so the company caves and makes more to appease the whiney bitches who arent sitting in front of their computer patiently waiting like the rest of us. Everyone wants a Charizard so I guess we will put a charizard in every booster pack. Fuck that, you get Caterpie. clerk3745 and tkey 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most people are bitching because flippers purchased so many because there were no limits. One ebay guy had 15 listed. Not because they didn't press enough.

Its a real problem here in America. I blame Trump. I just miss the days of /50 variants. I will at least admit that nowhere at any time did Waxwork say this record was limited in any way; at least not that I saw. jack8urt0n and hallowken78 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The emails they sent out detailing the presale tomorrow both mention the 2 releases from the original on sale so I took it as though they're going to be straight up represses. I could be wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point, but given their track record of previous deluxe items selling out combined with the price tag of this one I took it that limited was a safe assumption. Had this been an open edition release from the start I doubt I would've thrown down for the deluxe. But that's just my collector mindset that I'll never be able to shake despite how irrational it may be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assume the non-deluxe variants are going to be re-pressed. hallowken78 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it isn't, the first print is still likely to command a premium price, if that is your concern. Sometimes there is virtually no difference between one press and another, but the first is still sought-after more so than the RP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like they're just going to do an exact repress of both versions. The only time OG presses are worth more is when farrr more time elapses between pressings and/or there's a noticeable difference. If the deluxe had been an open edition from the get-go I may have waited a long time until copies flooded the market to see if they eventually fell. Because $70 is still bananas. docbronze and hallowken78 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I went looking through my wishlist I could show you quite a few exceptions to that statement. Are you guys just assuming the RP will be identical? Cause I don't see that stated anywhere.

Vector53 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Btw, Waxwork good with replying to emails? Needed to cancel an order of the regular so I was just trying to see if they respond quickly enough. jeffthomas84 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freedumb Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 There's a fairly good chance that I'm one of the biggest Morricone fans on this board, but I gotta say... fuck these ridiculous prices. Funny how we don't even speak of the "vinyl bubble" any more, it's just the new norm and we take it. THE HOBBY!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they said 2-3 weeks on Monday pre orders, and 8 weeks on today's PO. Just assuming they'd be the same, with that kind of turn around. Unless they had it in the works already for another color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recon Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 It seems they are taking new orders for while because there is no limit of copies to add to the cart. I'm still thinking... 50USD shipping to Europe is just insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
