  1. I know all of that. I meant more his experience with Slow Crush. It sounds like there's a lesson to be learned and that's not something a google search or reviewing the thread is going to fill me in on. BUT I always appreciate the snarky "let's quote other people in the thread to show how dumb this guy is" posts, so thanks for that.
  2. Care to elaborate? Was thinking of doing the sub but from what I'm reading I've gathered I'll have to commit to 3 months with no guarantee of getting the platinum variant if I'm correct.
  3. I did, and to be clear, I ordered the first wave, and he appears to be shipping out the second batch of said wave today. Next on sale is the 28th.
  4. Fuck yeah, I hope mine is coming soon. Did you get a tracking email? EDIT: Got one about 30 seconds ago, looks like another wave of these are going out today.
  5. This was my mindset. And he’s not charging anything excessive for what he’s shipping. I really DONT want that shit with media mail, I’ve seen some jacked up mailers show up on my doorstep that shipped MM.
  6. Yeah fuck this I’ve been waiting years for this but that shipping is OUTRAGEOUS. I AM OUTRAGED. jk I got one with the print, y’all needa calm tf down. I don’t want a $35 record and a screenprinted poster being tossed around with the rest of the media mail anyway. that being said... I don’t need the print, I just grabbed the first listing that went live. Probably gonna get rid of the poster if anyone wants one at cost when all these have sold and the dust has settled, I can probably help with that.
  7. So cool, wish I was smart enough to game the system like you. So bitchin sweet.
  8. I dunno, I’ve never gotten anything but excellence from Newberry, and the most expensive shits they had in recent memory were tom Waits - mule variations and sleep- dopesmoker @ 37.99 and 39.99 respectively, which is high but it’s not 45 for a single LP... id argue it’s not even close. they press albums that have been OOP or otherwise unattainable for a reasonable amount like their recent round of Dillinger reissues, which were 27.99, and while that’s up there for a single LP, it was infinitely less than if I’d gone the aftermarket route for Ire Works. your issue there was expecting anything good from a Ghost album.
  9. Shiiit, I dropped out of life with bong in hand hours ago, but I got lost and ended up in McPherson’s land of black vinyl only and unwarranted superiority. it’s all weird in here and everyone has a neckbeard.
  10. Is it hard to breathe all the way up there on that high horse?
  11. It sounds like you’re getting boned on shipping, which does suck. I feel like I’m getting a steal when I pick up an lp at anything less than $19.99 but unfortunately the standard seems to be 20-30 these days.
  12. LSD and weed aint free, son. Nah but the TMR prices are out of hand. I give newberry a pass cause every record I've grabbed from them has been stellar quality and they don't go overboard with the colors like some labels do (Relapse...) That and they do pressings of albums that have long been out of print on occasion... I was more than happy to spend $30 shipped for their repress of Ire Works instead of an easy $70+ on discogs.
  13. Cmon heavy weight double lps should cost $9 TOPS, shipping should be free, and all records should include a personal apology from the label AND band for how long it took to arrive on the sparkling marble castle steps of whoever ordered it. this new newberry variant is cool, I’d probably grab it if I hadn’t already scooped that orange sand/blue sky one they did last year. Holo cover is neat though. Price is right in line with I’d expect, it’s not super awesome but I’m not gonna throw on my PC shades about it. My collection would be pitiful if I refused to buy albums over standard markup. Now $60 for the tour variant of the sciences right off the merch table? Or totally unrelated but $60 for that Norma Jean boxset which is literally the packaging of the original standard issue lp plus a see through piece of parchment with some lyrics and a black folder with a feather in it minus the sturdy gatefold jacket that came with the original? Fuck THAT noise.
  14. It’s amazing that this is getting a pressing, yup. Ordered the fuck out of it
