Ok chiming in here... I bought a copy of this tape from this same seller two days ago on discogs. I had received no invoice and messaged him to say, hey so I guess you're not selling this since you now have it listed on ebay. He replied to say, hey no I have two of them and sent the invoice along, haha. I already own a copy of RACE (was grabbing the discogs copy because it was listed so cheap), mine is #'d 96/100. I agree with the points mentioned above re: the ebay copy: 1. My copy is also #'d in Sharpie (not pen as in the ebay photo) 2. The noticeable font differences in my opinion are most visible on the E's (the middle of the E doesn't extend as far on the ebay picture) and on the A's (left side of the A is thinner on the ebay photo). 3. The spine of the j-card on my copy is also white as mentioned above and not blue. 4. Seems odd that this seller would randomly have multiple copies... sell one first on discogs at a very reasonable price, then list it later on ebay where the price is bound to jump up... now try to sell both "copies". 5. Also, the ebay photo doesn't appear to show any insert and my copy has a pretty thick (after it's been folded up) lyric insert I'm not planning to pay the invoice, as this seems suspect to me... bid with caution on that ebay copy y'all.

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.

Curious where this number came from?

New single:

re: Nashville Grimey's is famous with good reason and their variety of new vinyl can't be beat, but their used selection (over in Grimey's Too) is always surprisingly terrible. Fond Object has some interesting things every now and again, but things are usually overpriced. Kinda surprised no one mentioned The Groove, which to me has the friendliest staff and best combo new/used selection in town.

Per Larry at ITR, the Traditional Fools LP out later this year will be a new record of old recordings and called Fools Gold.

Same with mine, these were pretty poorly (loosely) packaged.

Order #?

There is no vinyl on tour, only shirts.

It did, today.

Anyone in the UK who can help with a Chvrches 7"?

Already gone?

Anyone's Juan Wauters limited edition LP show yet?

Says the guy who posted the instructions for the last few big Goner pre-sales (the Human Eye record and Ex-Cult 7") directly from the email onto his own blog. http://www.dailyvinyl.net/2013/05/HumanEye.html http://www.dailyvinyl.net/2013/07/Ex-Cult.html

Pretty clear above that they ARE pressing more:

Guess there are a bunch of these, here's mine:

Is it already sold out? Just order it from Gabriele, basically amounted to $10 a 7", I ordered mine this afternoon...

PM'd last night...

He responded to my email with this, yesterday: Everything remaining is going in the mail this afternoon. Sorry for the delay...
