Bump with price drops, please see original post!

ATDI sold!

I'm really trying to move these so feel to make an offer or PM me.

Hey guys, first sale here for me, but I have 100% feedback scores on the Stevehoffman forums and on that auction site (marblesmike on SH, marblesmike85 on ebay). I just moved and am whittling down my collection for some much-needed extra dough. Please see below. All prices include shipping to the CONUS: Porcupine Tree -- Up The Downstair 2008 red vinyl Kscope reissue 2lp contains Up The Downstair and Staircase Infinities Vinyl is NM- (played maybe three times and kept in MOFI sleeves, sleeve is VG+ with some light ringwear and one corner bent; my old Stanton cart had issues playing back part of the Staircase Infinities EP getting some distortion, so this might be just my setup. $20 Rush - Moving Pictures Live 2011 (1LP) NM (played once) $12 Talk Talk - Spirit of Eden (1st US pressing EMI America label) Sleeve is VG+, vinyl is VG/VG+. I'm sure with a cleaning this could be much better sounding, but I got a the new reissue so I never played this more than a couple of times. The vinyl looks much to be VG++ but sounds at times VG, and this is being ultra conservative. $15 Yes - Relayer (1st US/White label promo) This was a former radio copy. Sleeve is VG as it has a radio station cut through the spine with a couple labels/stickers. Vinyl is VG+. This is a rarer item. There are bands throughout Gates of Delirium with fade-ins/outs for radio play (as if!!!). $13 Steven Wilson - Luminol/Watchmaker (RSD picturedisk, limited) Played once, already have the album these songs are from so I don't need this anymore. For a picturedisk I was very surprised at the lack of surface noise! $13 Steven Wilson - The Raven Who Refused to Sing (ltd deluxe edition book, CD, DVD, Bluray set) Being a big SW fan, I bought this simply to read the 'ghost stories' contained within the book. It's a very lovely package, but since I'm a vinyl guy the discs have never been played. I'm happy to let this go to a fan who will appreciate it more than I have! $80 Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for looking!

I agree, which is why I found somewhere to check out the digital only tracks and then ordered the vinyl. Most of the bonus stuff on these sets is a one-time listen for me as well. Although I really wish they'd release the live disc on vinyl. To me that is the most worthwhile part of the bonus tracks.

USPS?

Fortunately I got one from them :-) but too bad their shipping is kinda slow, so I won't get to check it out until next week it seems.

Nope, cancelled, but they gave me free FedEx shipping on my next order from them and a $20 store credit. I ended up getting it on Deepdiscount for only $5 more with shipping. Not bad at all!

I just ordered the vinyl off Amazon for $105. It was being sold by Acoustic Sounds. Strangely enough the Acoustic Sounds website has the vinyl set listed for $200 so no idea why/how it was on Amazon for $105 from them. And it looks like I snagged the last copy.

I wanted to send mine back for a replacement because it had a couple marks on it but they've already sold out again and they instructed me to contact Kirtland Records about the issue. I called Kirtland and they told me they are going to repress more (the original run was ~1200) since it sold out much faster than they thought it would, but that it might be a while until it is back in stock again.

yes

It does. It is a double LP, with side 4 having an etching.

UPDATE, I ordered both Razorblade Suitcase and Science of Things. I haven't listened to either but the packaging is dreadful. No liner notes, booklets, lyrics, or anything. I'm glad I have original pressings of both. At this point I'm just hoping they sound just as good if not better than the originals, but shame on Kirtland for being cheap. It appears the records were cut/pressed at Dallas A&R.

Does anyone know how the Sixteen Stone reissue sounds compared to the original vinyl?

Anyone know anything about this?
