I realize this has probably been asked about a million times on here, and I was part of a similar thread somewhere else years back, but most of the records on that thread got pressed. 
 
For me:
 
Gatsby's American Dream-S/T
The Dangerous Summer-If You Could Only Keep Me Alive EP/Repress RFTS
Days Away-Mapping an Invisible World
Envy on the Coast-Lucy Gray repress.

Please don't buy records if you're not going to play them. Leave them to those who will.

Oh hey Porchlight - I bought one of the Kyler Martz Whale Song slipmats in your shop last year. 
 

Ty Segall & The Muggers played an in-studio set at local Seattle station KEXP today ahead of tonight's show - the first performance in the station's new studio. You can stream it here:

My girlfriend's copy of Ziggy Stardust (record VG+, sleeve G) has a store barcode/price sticker on the back marked $1.99. The sticker is new enough that I suspect she picked it up in the late 90s or 00s and no earlier. If people were buying vinyl at the time like they're buying vinyl now, it probably would have been $10 easily.

jeromium,
threw on Sunken Foal this morning, good stuff. thanks.

Thrill Jockey posted info: turquoise one is pre-order only ... will never show up in stores. Orange is an Indie exclusive later in the year.
Nice.

The normal deals thread was getting out of control with the Gohastings stuff, so let's resurrect this old thread for that discussion.

So should we start a new thread since this has basically turned into a boner comparison thread over the go Hastings shit. I can only read so much about eminem and Bruce Springsteen and Selena fucking Gomez.

I don't often comment on here, but statements like these make me cringe.
 
 ITR is a consistently fantastic label.  Not only do they remain committed to putting out killer releases, but in the increasing age of "limited edition" releases by labels who refuse to even acknowledge a pressing number, ITR remains true to their tradition of 200 colored copies at the same price as the standard editions.  As well, though I don't know him personally, all communications / questions / emails I've ever had with Larry have been friendly and informative--  truly I'd describe him as a label owner who recognizes and appreciates dedicated fans of the label.
 
"Really don't know what we spent $80 on"?
 
You spent $80 on EXACTLY what was advertised.  A limited edition pressing of the new Fuzz record on gold vinyl, limited to 300 copies, with a cover and poster unique to this release.  Based on that description, did you really think this was going to cost $75 to produce?
 
My assumption is that the high price was partially intended to cut down on flippers / a "middle man" market.  It gets a lot of the money many would have spent on the secondary market (if this had been priced at say $30 and snatched up by those intending to flip) DIRECTLY to the label, which will be funneled right back into putting out more kick ass music.  Larry clearly recognizes the popularity of Ty / Fuzz right now and is using that to generate funds for his label (300 copies is still extremely limited for a group as popular as Fuzz) while also cutting down on the number of people profiting off of flipped copies...  obviously, the higher price will not eliminate flippers, but it has to have helped cut down a bit and ITR is still able to get a limited edition into the hands of collectors.
 
Bottom line:  If sending a extra money to a label I love (and who has provided me with countless great records / limited editions over the years) and keeping that money away from someone on discogs flipping a copy for 3-4 times the cost = getting ripped off that's a pretty sad comment on the state of record collecting these days.

Im soo fxcking tired of this. People kill in the name of non-existing things and imaginery persons. All religions should die off, its the 21st century...

Yeah she is. I googled Jill first to make sure she was older than she is on the show. She's 21.

I remember the pre-Napster 90s when this was out of print and only one person in my circle of friends had a CD-R of this album. No one had CD burners at the time so we would pass it around, often wondering who actually had it and waiting months before it actually surfaced. No one ever made a copy due to the lack of CD burners. I guess we could have made tapes. Maybe we did. I eventually purchased the CD reissue in 2004.

Hey Mike Almquist from mewithoutYou here. If you have damaged or missing parts, just contact [email protected] and I will help you try and get replacements. Unfortunately the plant seems to have taken less care than we would have. We've only had about 8 or 9 people hit us up so far. We should have enough overprinting resources to cover everyone. Hopefully this problem isn't too widespread, but we want people to be happy with the product they paid $50 + shipping for. Not much I can do abou the missing Dorothy lyrics though.

Well lookie lookie what I just picked up today at a local shop. So the answer is yes, you might be able to find a colored version at your local record store. 
 
Look for the record with me on the cover!
 

Great packaging. Vinyl still very Rasta.

Seriously. I have gone off about this in other threads and this surely won't be the last time I get grumpy about it. I usually avoid this thread and would have missed it too but luckily accidentally clicked in here one day. I'm not sure who began to think generic threads were a good idea but that person is mistaken and should be ashamed.

FUCK.  I can't believe I missed the preorder on this.  Stupid fucking generic band posts.

Now I wish I'd ordered the cream reissue, despite having an original. Maybe a local shop will have it in stock on release day.

Email Matador---they're replacing my jacket and the one sleeve that was damaged.
