So the Canadian dollar is at its worst in 13 years. And there are some particularly decent deals on Amazon.ca for some of RA's stuff (all prices in CAD with an estimate in USD)
 
Ryan Adams - Live At Carnegie Hall $97.54 + 3.49 to 7.99 (depending on where you are) - works out to around $70-72 USD shipped
 
1989 2LP - $17.49 prime (probably $5-7 for int'l shipping?) - less than $18USD shipped
 
29 - $14.94 prime - probably $12 US shipped or so?
 
I also know that there are some good deals on some of the LPs on Amazon.com too - some for $10-12 US...

  my newly updated record room, a work in progress.       

Not interested in this release a single bit, but I'd be lying if I said this didn't look fucking AWESOME.

Here's a picture of my full Yellowcard collection. This picture is about a year old. Since it was taken, they've released a Record Store Day exclusive 10" that includes b-sides from their album Life a Sail and a split 7" with New Found Glory that went along with their Fall 2015 tour where they covered each others songs. Both of which, I have. I'm waiting until they release their next album to take another picture.

Just noticed the shipping was set to 't-shirt' cost and not 'tapes'. Still figuring out Storenvy! Anyways all US orders have had the difference refunded and I'll eat the cost for International orders.

Hailing from Winnipeg/Edmonton, Canada Boys' Club merges together the perfect blend of US emo revival (think Casper Elgin, Handwriting!) with True North punk (Mockingbird Wish Me Luck, The Sainte Catherines). These cassettes were hand dubbed/painted and come in jewel cases with full color j-cards. Only 25 copies were made, HVR will only have half! Includes digital download or you can hear/download it for free using the link below!

Speaking of Home Alone, anybody see this?

Look- I dont' always make nostalgia purchases (yes I do), and I don't think I can't bring myself to buy this just because I was obsessed in the fourth grade (yes I can).
 
I just shared it via Facebook in hopes someone will actually buy it for me. 
 
Fingers crossed (my wife already hates a lot of my music, she's going to kill me if I get this).

This is a good sign.  Not really interested in this record but hoping N Sync and Backstreet Boys records get pressed soon.

Holy hell. My wife knows this dude, and he said that he has been working on this for three years... insane. Want. Need.

"Look what ya did ya little jerk!" 

I went with the cheese pizza variant. Every other Christmas album I own is either transparent red or green

That green cabinet looks so awesome under that desk. Nice find! I came across another one of these the other day at goodwill for $3

well buy them and slam your feet into them then! kidding, cheese pizza doesn't sound too thrilling so I'm not sure which I'll get

After getting my download I realized I can copy the link to that page and others can access it.

According to Adams' FB post on it, that's the only different with the UO exclusive. 

I imagine if he did the EU version, he did the U.S. as well.
I think he's been doing all of Ryan's releases for the past year.

bullmoose has the cassette up on their site under "collectable vinyl." Its on the second page, or at least it was.
 
EDIT: It was $8.98 for a while but now appears to be $11.98, so after shipping I guess it would come out to about the same.
 
Seems crazy for a cassette tape to be, but to each their own.
 
And for some reason I cant post the link, but if you search for it on BM website it will pop up.

Amazon has the 1989 cassette for $12.98 on Prime. 
 
Also, use code "25BNFAMILY" to get 25% off the seafoam green vinyl edition of 1989 at Barnes & Noble 

I'm gonna make my cassette into a bowl I think. Set it beside my other Brand New vinyl bowls.
