    I'm a big DGD fan, but these variants are lame and overpriced. The boxset with 6 Records was only $50

    and at that time specifically we all agreed that it was underpriced.  Someone messed up at that time.  $50/6 is just over $8 per album.  This is a bundle of records priced where they realistically would be priced without being bundled together.

    Hmmm. So I just sold all my records from them earlier this year but have been meaning to get them back. This might be cheaper overall but those variants are kinda lame. Box set alone is this price. I’m split.

     

    btw wtf is “Color POP Vinyl”? The art just makes it seem like the covers are black and white

    I would imagine that the color POP is referring to the fact that the covers ARE discolored, leading to a POP of color once you open up the records themselves... which is exactly what you're saying.

    Stoked this is 2xLP, No longer have sellers remorse of selling my blue OG

    i have felt sellers remorse for a long time.  I almost didn't even buy the OG one, because at the time I wasn't a *huge* fan of Circa and it was a used copy that my local FYE had for sale.  I knew it was OOP but I think the going rate online was only like $30, and I almost decided to leave it hoping a bigger fan would pick it up.  I eventually traded it on here for a copy of Dig Up The Dead by Mansions, which got repressed right after, and BSN ended up skyrocketing in price shortly after and I never was able to buy it again.

     

    Side note, I'm in the minority where I prefer single LPs simply because it is so much more annoying to flip the record every 3 songs.

    I just find it hard to believe when members say everything they buy shows up damaged. My collection is larger than most and it's also around a 90/10 online/retail split. I've had 3 records get destroyed in 12 years of collecting I just don't get what the fuck is happening for the world to pick on you people.

    I think it just depends on what people consider "damaged".  There's a huge difference between a warped record and a seam split.  I have received records that have minor bumps in the corners of the jacket, or seam splits, it never really bothers me because the record itself is in great condition and I realize that the jackets being made out of paper, no matter how thick, will be prone to some sort of damage in a process that involves packaging, shipping, human delivery system, etc.

     

    I understand why people get upset, I've had a couple of records with major bends to the jackets, and it's especially frustrating when you spend a decent amount of money only to have the record show up with some sort of cosmetic issues, but man... to get upset enough to want to stop collecting altogether?  That would be a bummer.
