So in essence, there were two copies of Sometimes up for grabs?

It'd be cool if people bought records to actually own and enjoy. Maybe one day.

Also looking for a Deftones Covers LP. Can pay cash, or trade a Circa Survive or BTBAM RSD release.

Everyone knows there's an extremely good chance that Sometimes is getting pressed in plentiful amounts, right? Unless you're absolutely set on that silkscreen / 500, I wouldn't shell out insane amounts of cash on eBay. Especially if you can get a legitimate gatefold package and colored vinyl for a fraction of $150.

If this is just for an exclusive TA release, I dread to think of what the next Converge pre-order may look like.

I'm only assuming that he didn't know [or care?] that the clear variant is insanely rare?

With that out of the way, welcome to the VC. Based off your introductory post, you clearly know what's up. Enjoy your stay.

Why on earth would one buy RSD exclusive records, and then turn around only to sell them for the top offer? I've never heard of such a thing.

Hopefully he's trying to say that he purchased those two albums - for his cousin - in exchange for said cousin's Act I/II. Which is an unbelievably good deal.

Ben, Benjamin, and Benji?

Still going to stick with purple. Or maybe a clear peach, orange-pinkish shade.

Four, 250 a piece. Moreover, I've seen a translucent blue and a translucent teal thus far. Wouldn't be surprised if the remaining two colors were purple and pink to go along with the art.

There's a slight possibility I may end up with a second copy. If I do, I can sell it to you at face value.

Probably old news at this point, but SRC will have it (and some other sweet releases) at 06 PM EST.

03 PM Pacific. 06 PM Eastern.

That will get BIN'd before you even know it. I'd actually hop all over it, myself, if I didn't already own a set.

Does anyone officially have dibs on that extra? If not, I'd like to get in on one.

Damn. I'm still looking for this. Haven't seen it anywhere other than the OP's link... I'm kind of surprised it's so elusive in the U.S.

So I think it's (almost) safe to assume that Deftones' Covers will be one of SRC's RSD items. I already have one or two [awesome] dudes helping me out with RSD requests, here on VC, and I'd hate to bother them further. Would anyone be willing to pick up an extra Covers if they can grab one? It'd be cool to support an actual local record store, and I imagine that it'd even be cheaper than SRC's prices. They shouldn't be too difficult to find, either. Would be super grateful for anyone who's feeling generous, and could pay immediately, tomorrow. Theoretical thanks in advance.

Don't forget about the colored variants.

Yeah, dude. Apologies if you thought I was ridiculing you. I believe a handful were "damaged" in transit. Some obtained visible water damage, and others - such as colossus77's - received none. But it's still dubbed "Rejected" since it was a part of the batch. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. If you're not listing a starting price, just prepare to be lowballed, a bit. But I suppose that will only be relative to how much you're expecting to score.

You won't have a shortage of offers, I'm pretty sure. Especially since you haven't suggested a starting price.
