True...though it does seem that recent limited releases spike for a short time then level off over the long run. That said, I believe both of those were colored vinyl. So at least there was a difference with the physical media. I suppose some folks collect for the cover and would maybe want this one as well.

Probably the same as the regular versions. Newbury's variants are fun, but I don't necessarily see them going for inflated prices. It's the same pressing, after all.

Is there any reason to believe there won't be pre-order options for the standard version in the US? Any compelling reason to jump on the Newbury release?

I wish Newbury's wasn't a variant. I much prefer the full-bleed cover.

So, to recap, do I have this correct? Preorder options: - xlrecordings (Europe only) - Newbury (Custom cover, appears to only be working for US orders at the moment?) - VMP (Custom red vinyl, can preorder come June) - Direct from the Band: http://www.theavalanchesmusic.com/store/ (do they ship worldwide?) Did I miss any options?
