Urban Outfitters stores have a $9.99 clearance section filled with great stuff. Through July 6, it's half off all sales items there so you can get some excellent albums for $4.99! Check out the UO thread for a list and more info.

Curious, what albums?

Some people have gotten David Lynch's The Big Dream for $9.99 at some stores. It was full price at my store. How do I get it for the sale price and 50% off then?

Me too. Whatever, Supersonic, and now Some Might Say 12" singles have all been getting reissues, hopefully they did all of them and put them in a box. I'd love to get all the b-sides on vinyl. It was smoother, had more bass, but was a bit louder (less dynamics). It was better than the 2009 reissues IMO, but maybe not as good as the originals. If you have the 2009 ones, it may not be worth it.

Amazon had Definitely Maybe for $29 a month or so before release so I'd expect the same for this.

For some classics: The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses (Precursor to shoegaze. Ride sounds like them a lot. Just got reissued in the UK.) Jesus and the Mary Chain - Psychocandy Cocteau Twins - Heaven Or Las Vegas (Reissues are coming in a couple weeks.) I'd also recommend albums by Catherine Wheel, Chapterhouse, and Swervedriver but they haven't been reissued. Original pressings shouldn't cost more than $40. Newer albums with shoegaze-y sounds: The War On Drugs - Lost In The Dream Deerhunter - Microcastle/Weird Era Cont Wild Nothing - Nocturne Beach House - Bloom (more dream pop, but whatever) Silversun Pickups - Carnavas

Some guy on Reddit did an Insound grab bag and got: Orenda Fink - Ask The Night Nickel Eye - The Time Of The Assassins Born Gold - Bodysong The Boy Least Likely To - The Body Of The Playground Peter Moren - The Last Tycoon So yeah, it's definitely lesser known stuff that probably isn't selling well. Bet there are some unheard gems though.

Does Mondo notify you after you send for a replacement? My package arrived in Texas and I don't know whether I should be expecting a tracking number or not.

Under a bright light, my copy looked like it was slid across the factory floor or something. Good thing I'm getting shipped a replacement.

Thanks for that. OP is incorrect. Getting the translucent blue now.

Someone on Discogs said the last two tracks of Jurassic Park are out of order on Mondo's version. They are labeled correctly, but the credits song plays before the other one. Can anyone confirm this? I'm not around my turntable right now. Pretty silly if true.

Best Buy has good packaging, I'm sure you'll be fine!

White Blood Cells.

This is going to be a long post. Bear with me. Alright, Parlophone and Capitol (as far as I know) both distribute the same artists, but each are based in a different territory (Parlophone = EU/UK and Capitol = US). From my research, I've found that Capitol Records does not have the ability to cut AAA (analog-analog-analog) vinyl. What could be AAA releases become AAD (analog-analog-digital) because they use high quality digital files, allegedly. My goal is this: to end up with the best sounding releases from Capitol/Parlophone artists, analog when applicable. In theory, albums such as OK Computer, which was recorded entirely in analog, are only available in their analog glory on the Parlophone label. The original pressings are, at least. In 2008, Capitol had a reissue campaign called "From The Vaults." If you are in the US and you have purchased any title from 2008 on from Radiohead (before In Rainbows), Coldplay (before Mylo Xyloto), The Verve's Urban Hymns, and many others, you probably have one of these releases. Branded as "audiophile," these 180-gram "limited" (repressed continuously) releases are, if my research is correct, digital. Now, I could stop there. I could just buy these "From The Vaults" reissues and call it a day. Most of them (minus A Rush Of Blood To The Head and X&Y) have gotten good reviews. But after obtaining a UK import of OK Computer which I compared to my Capitol one, I can't do it. The Parlophone blows the Capitol one away. Unfortunately, there seems to be a lot of confusion surrounding these releases. The strangest thing is that all of the titles that are in the "From The Vaults" series are still in print on Parlophone in the UK. What does this mean? Does it mean they are the Capitol versions branded under Parlophone? Does it mean that they went back to the analog masters and reissued it from there? Have they been continuously pressed for 15+ years in the UK? Only the oracle knows. To add even more confusion to this whole ordeal, stores in my area have been stocking Parlophone editions of Coldplay's albums in stores. Why? Sites like ShopRadioCast have listed some releases under the Parlophone label for some reason. Technically, they should be using the Capitol release, or maybe it's a typo. Haha sorry for the long post, maybe someone can shed some light on this?

Secretly Canadian's website store says that Enjoy Your Rabbit is Athsmatic Kitty. You received a black one?

I wonder when they ship out packages, do they have a separate pile of variant copies or are they all mixed together? I can't imagine them going, "hey, this guy ordered four copies, let's give him all black ones!"

I don't think I've ever seen legit original copies of Piper or Saucerful in my area.

You can also add: Wilco - Summerteeth Built To Spill - There Is No Enemy Juilianna Barwick - Nepenthe

I agree! Poly-lined inner sleeves at the very least.

Copy the number and paste it into google to go straight to the USPS tracking site. Mondo's tracking doesn't work. (Maybe you've done this already)

Same here... Yeah, the gimmicks are cool for five minutes or so, but at the end of the day, I just want to listen to the music.
