Impressed if that’s all you have left for Jimmy Eat World. I’m down to needing 13-15 releases.

It was $55 last time (yes it came with a ticket but like only 5% were able to use) 

 

and tbh $45 for a vinyl like this is pretty reasonable... 

I actually didn’t know the price it was 7 years ago, but I feel like in my time here pricing on releases has always been a polarizing subject lol- that’s the only reason I mentioned it. Trust me, I am completely fine with dropping $45, $55, or even $110 (for the more expensive version with shipping on this release) if it means I can own this thing.

being a pretty big fan, it’s really cool in the first place, but the whole concept of this record is just really wild with the three colors, pieces, whatever. One of a kind in my collection, for sure!

I hope to god my order goes through lmao. I love how no one even bothers complaining about the $45 price tag for it either

I think they create scarcity and thereby add value to the brand. Also they don't sell it on auction to give a chance for not rich fans to buy it.

I think the only reason I’d be open to the idea of an auction is knowing that it’s more likely to go to a serious fan of the band if it’s done that way. There’s so many people who are super casual and just want to own this because it’s rare and they can flip it in the future.  I’d be willing to pay a pretty decent amount for it, and I’d rather pay the band a decent amount than anyone else lol.

but on the flipside, I’m just hopeful most of these do go to people who are actually fans.

Very disappointed that I have to work all day lol. I was really banking on a midnight drop. Typical of this band. 3000 followers on twitter, but enough traffic to break their website haha.

Mine has been in my possession for a while.

with that being said, I missed out on WDNTW acoustic. If anyone has the hook up pls help me out!!!

Some really solid music on there. My personal recommendation is My Ticket Home “Strangers Only”. Great record to check out for $10! 

Okay  -  so to clear the air - as soon as Kristian read my post, I received a message asking for my story, asking how LTO could make it right for me, and overall being super accommodating.  I want to express that LTO's service is really awesome.  I was so excited going into it, and not only have they sent me records, but also a poster that I plan to hang on my wall for the next 20+ years of my life.  I think if there is anyone on the fence about the service, it is absolutely worth giving it a try.  For me, the reason I signed up for it was because I live too far away from actually visiting the store unless I plan a trip, but I wanted to have access to what they have to offer.

I will keep the specific problem that I had between Kristian and I, but at the end of the day, the solution does seem to be simply me talking about it one on one.  Even despite the problem, I still kept my membership for two more months because I love what LTO does and I wanted to support the shop because it's truly one of a kind.

I wish more artists could do this. I feel like it’s difficult because turn around times on vinyl take forever- but I loved subscribing to the LTO patreon at first. I unsubscribed because it turned into a bad experience, but it was really cool not having an idea what I was going to receive. 

I just refreshed the Denzel 7” on discogs and eBay for like 5 minutes straight and lucked out on a $15 copy on discogs... I’ll take the W and spend $20 on a 7” lol.

If anyone doesn’t want their slipmat, hook me up!!! Lol

I missed out on Denzel, got everything else I wanted. 

It’s up for everyone. I’m not a patron and I just was able to get it.

Was also hoping to grab The Season, but sounds like I would've had to go for that one first

That's exactly what we would have had to do.  I knew I wanted AGO records, and I absolutely cherish Quitter like you wouldn't believe.  I knew it was risky to go for that one first knowing there was more copies of it available and also knowing it is a less popular album than The Season, but had I missed out on it I would have felt pretty disappointed.  Now the search really begins!

I think it's cool that they did this at all.  I'm much happier to see these albums sold for reasonable prices on their webstore rather than potentially having to outbid someone on the one singular copy available.  I wish more labels would do this.  I am also extremely thankful that I went through the struggles of the previous odds and ends sale they did because I knew to just quickly cash out as soon as I got a record into my cart this time.

That was rough.  I got a few that I wanted - but I missed out on The Season which is a huge bummer.  On a positive note, more copies of The Season are out there now for me to potentially buy from someone!  So, if anyone is down to sell that, hit me up!!!  I am so thankful I got Quitter and Movement at least!

I need to get at least the Quitter test but praying for all 3 AGO tests !!!

I tried the password and it didn’t work... what the heck? I was order 1008 originally! This is kinda frustrating

edit: I’m dumb thank u

$26ppd. 

Lmao thank you I was under the impression it was OOP and hard to find. Sometimes discogs isn’t as helpful as I need it to be!

People on Facebook are saying this is going to be live performances not the original recordings... any truth to that?

Fuuuuuck yes! Swooped that boxset immediately. Wondering if the slipmat comes with the boxset though..I didn't see it listed so probably not.

 

Edit: so weird that it's through FB though.

Going to the link from the email - it looks like the site isn’t 100% up yet...  maybe they planned to do the twitch stuff then drop the merch or something after it?

Oh damn I bought these immediately

That AOF is extremely tempting. Wish the list was even bigger!!!

What a haul this would be. Wish I was in the area. There’s a few of these I really want.

I felt misled by the email they sent out. They said that you had time to checkout with the items in your cart, and if you didn’t within a few minutes they’d be released to others. So, I figured I was getting really lucky adding items to my cart assuming that meant the website was telling others they couldn’t even be added to their carts because they were already in shopping carts. 
 

Of course, it’s not the end of the world, but at least I know this going into next time I am shopping a limited run webstore.
