This is just a stock photo but I snagged one of these for about $100 a while back, they seem to go for close to $300 now. It's my favorite album of all time so I didn't mind spending the benjamin on it.

Can't go wrong with good ole Expedit.

It's a shame that this band has become the stoner metal version of Kiss. I met them after a show back in 2009 and got all my stuff signed for free in 10 seconds. I can probably get a grand on EBay for all the stuff I have. They used to be a very fan friendly band but lately it's all been a huge money grab. I understand everyone needs to make a living but I think they're doing just fine without the need to gouge the fans. $70 for a double vinyl is laughable.

Porcupine Tree's Deadwing. There's a copy on Discogs now for $500+shipping (used, by the way). Insanity.

FYI guys, and this is just MY personal experience so I cannot guarantee this'll work for you... I realized that my Act 3 was screwed up and wasn't going to get any worse, so i tried out an experiment. I have the typical cookie cutter cleaning equipment: Vinyl Styl solution and cleaning pad. I put a BUNCH of the cleaner on the stuck-on glue/jizz, and put in some elbow grease with the cleaning pad. 95% of it came off, and now instead of it skipping on the same three words it plays through perfectly minus a bit of extra static in the spot where the glue line was (not louder than the music). So, basically this fixed my albums problems by about 95%. I still obviously want a copy that doesnt have any inherent quality issues, but this at least softens the wait so I can still enjoy the record.

Quick bump...anyone hear back? Last I heard they were contacting the company for a repress possibility. I would love a working copy of the album I paid for....

I don't really bother getting records signed, i much prefer getting posters autographed. The jewel of the collection is probably my Dio-era Black Sabbath poster signed by the whole band, including Ronnie who signed it for me and sadly passed not too long after that. Another really awesome one is a poster for Dream Theater's Scenes from a Memory album, signed by everyone. Their original drummer Mike Portnoy told me a story about the poster...apparently it's a misprinted one and worth quite a bit of money. He joked about charging me for his signature, haha.

Things could be worse. You could be the guy bidding $150+ on the bundle on Ebay and have a defective Act III inside. Which no one will exchange...

The lady from customer service who responded said that they'd send along a postage paid mailer thing so I can send my Act 3 back. Should be simple

You and many of us...looks like a probable defect. Im waiting on a replacement copy.

180G bundle is completely sold out. And I assure you it's not shill bidding. I knew this would happen too.

I think he means found as in purchased on EBay etc but still. Clearly someone who bought 2 copies to resell one lol

And hereeee we go... http://www.ebay.com/itm/181347737222?redirect=mobile

On one hand, excited cuz it's a great album. On the other hand, considering how bad the Afterman albums sound on vinyl (easily the WORST sounding vinyl I have ever heard/owned), I'm definitely hesitant...

Sweet! I'm holding on to my original Act 3. The artwork and the way the gatefold is done is way too nice.
