Can't wait for the track seven "Season Three Bumper (0:07)". That shit is hot fire!

Just got this lovely email from Bull Moose after cancelling my webstore purchase yesterday...
EDIT: I see this was posted above, but this is the specifics of the email that I guess is being sent out.

Thanks for posting this! I am glad I didn't drop $70 for a flipped copy on eBay.  

Hot diggity damn! I haven't bought from SRC in years, but I guess there are exceptions to everything.

I do not know if this matters to anyone but, IndieVinylDen(One of my favorite sites) has the standard and deluxe(Not box set) up for sale.
 
Edit - Now gone.

Do you think they actually consider what they're pressing onto vinyl, or do they just grab a rip of some bullshit OST off Pirate Bay and hope for the best at the pressing plant?

Spacelab9 coming in hot with more chintzy shit noone asked for

It was just put up on FatBeats the other day for the same price as BM, so that is always an option, but I'll be super bummed if Amazon pulls out too.

ALSO:
There's less than 50 Deluxe + Art Book copies left in the US store. So I wouldn't sleep on that one, either.
 
The plot thickens.
Watch the signed version be /200 and then there being /800 unsigned Box copies.
Looks like there are like 75 unsigned copies in stock.
 
 

I like how Spaceab just swoops in to take a quick dump on the boards every now and then before fucking off without wiping.

Can someone text me when the Cave Painting goes up?  Trying to keep my complete Spacelab collection alive.

I'm really sad that the Offspring S/T doesn't include KTP. 

I am similarly curious, but not curious enough to potentially miss out on this one.

I assume you're talking about the ROTM, not exclusives.  I don't believe it has happened but the staff kind of hinted that they might not have a whole lot of, if any extras of April's.  
Like you didn't know it was going to happen if Demon Days was announced.  

Hot damn! I signed back up! If anyone has a code, lemme know  (Assuming it will work since I have already used one the first time I signed up for Weezer all those months ago). 
 
 
Edit. Looks like since I used a code when I first made an account, it won't work for me. Thanks to those who PM'ed me!

Least it's cheaper than the prices on Discogs for the original pressing. 

Limit to one copy per person. Cancel the multiple copy orders. Simple stuff, bruh.

I'm not the most active member on here.... Mostly cause I'm a pretty quiet dude and don't really have much to say... But I check the forums 2/3 times a day.  Super frustrating to have to work a double one day and miss something that I've been waiting years for. As previously stated, no real fault to new Travis... But an actual announcement of a pre-order would've been very much appreciated. 

I've been there.  I've been fortunate enough that a lot of the shit I listen to – and you as well, I'm sure – isn't exactly sought after.  Or at least not clearly, upfront.  Dude isn't going to gamble and buy 3 copies of weird ambient records or obscure shoegaze that Newbury isn't peddling.  But I still prefer to play it safe and just text friends or VCers directly, before making a thread.  After a bit of time and confidence that we're all hooked up, I'll make a thread if there isn't one already... and it's really shitty that that's what it has come to, as a community, but it's the safest route.  And I'm so grateful for the people who text me when shit pops up, immediately: you know who you are.
 
I give a lot of shit in this thread and others when I see copies of the new Green Day record being flipped, or some limited Day To Remember variant, or whatever.  I joke around and suggest that no one should care enough about those records, in the first place, and that they're better off without them.  But I can practice enough empathy to realize that the situation fucking blows.  I see a lot of defense for flipping – "it's their money, dude, who are you to care what he does with it?" and "lol, Derek doesn't understand supply and demand" – but at the end of the day, if a release I wanted - really, seriously wanted - popped up and sold out while I took a night to sleep and a day to work, and was being sold immediately after at triple the price... I'd be crushed.  "Ya' snooze ya' lose" is a horse-shit rebuttal to that and I think we all know it.  I spend a ton of time tinkering on VC on my breaks, or during the evenings when I'm home, and I still find stuff that has slipped through the cracks that pertain to my interest.  It's harder for me to sympathize with people when they don't log in for a week and are devastated that they missed a PO in that timeframe, but I can actually understand why some people had been waiting on that BCR repress for years, and were miffed when it went up with minimal heads-up, and sold out within 24 hours.  That isn't to fault Pseudo Travis' subtle and brief marketing strategies in this thread – but instead of giving everyone a week or a month to mark their calendars and prepare a bulk-buy to offload on Ebay, only the unemployed neckbeard lurkers were privy to the drop.  I guess it's better to have 2-3 sweaty flippers divebomb a limited release rather than 12+?  But again, this loops back to my first paragraph, and how tricky the situation is however you cut it.
 
These aren't people who are buying a copy to listen to – that's a given.  But they're not even people who are buying a copy to frame, maybe eventually play, photograph on Instagram, and then resell at twice the MSRP.  These are people with zero interest in any of the bands in these threads, buying 10, 15, 20 copies of a release /900 or so, and listing them for sale before they even have them on their doorstep.  Really stupid.  And considering the limited nature of vinyl and its aftermarket these days, they can afford to cast a wide net over any topics consistently bumped at VC, because the ones that "strike it rich" will more-than compensate for purchases that they wash even on or lose money with.  It's greed and its worst, and it's gross to consider that some of these sellers probably give a cursory glance at the album art or a quizzical look over the packaging before putting it in a mailer and sending it out.  "Huh.  Is a King Gizzard Wizard Lizard the new Circus Survive?  Is that what you kids are into these days?  Alright."  If they're not already among us as a shitlord in sheep's clothing, I imagine RareLimiteds' introductory post on VC would be akin to
 

Got an email indicating that mine is outside the apartment. I'm excited to see how the swirl turned out.
