I doubt that, considering how devoted Avalanches fans are, how quickly this sold out, and that this is the most limited variant. Heck look at Illinois and Midnight Marauders Newbury are goin for and they are just reissues. 

 

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.

I can only imagine what those Newbury variants are gonna go for on the secondary market.

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?
