I'm flipping my copy.  This is too ridiculous.

You know... I just ordered from SSD, without expectation of a red copy.  That's what I got #451.  If you really need a red and want to give me buckets of cash for it.....oh fuck it it's going on eBay... will replace with clear/black/etc

i sell everything at a higher price than it's worth to me, so no regrets.

you all act like you've never seen a white person before, jaws all on the floor like .... eh forgot the rest.

I really want more copies of A Fever... to flip.

Thank you.  Just cuz this a Fueled by Ramen release doesn't mean it's a substitute.

Probably. I would actually get this if there were Sunshine tracks on it.

learned some new declipping techniques (and software) for loudness war audio.  buying vinyl is getting less appealing to me.  sunshine is next on my declip list.  btw it's a crime how clipping ruins GOOD Music Cruel Summer & Yeezus.  Just criminal.....

It's underrated if anything.  It really solidified my like of them as a band, being a very Beatles sounding album.  I recall at some point getting into A Fever... but I can't for the life of me remember if it was before or after Pretty.Odd.  
 
I remember not even seeking out their music when I first heard the name because their fans also loved Fall Out Boy. I had heard Fall Out Boy and thought it was the worst thing I had heard in years.  Of course that was all when Say Hello to Sunshine  first came out...
 
TL;DR  Pretty.Odd is the album that got me to love the band. 
 
 
I did listen to my copy and I say brahhhh-vooohhh  to whomever did the mix.  Just like the Fever LP, clearly mastered for vinyl.  I really appreciate that 

*source: conjecture

is it weird that I can buy this record on speculation?  i did that with 'fever'.  you shouldn't be able to buy a record in january then sell it for 4x its initial price AFTER opening it and listening to it (or making HD audio copy ) in October.
 
Okay time to be come an investment banker.

They do sound and look great. Direct from the analog tape is something I wish all releases had. It's like night and day sounding.

I upvoted your downvote so it's neutral now
 
I personally think the demo version was best

hopefully this has the what it is to burn demo version

Indeed!

hype up that mythical el mark 12" too

To his credit he did pick the cotton himself.

Bootleg get's thrown around way too much these days.  To me it's a bootleg only if the audio is done poorly.  Like all those Universal Special Markets releases.. those are bootlegs.

ugh. Threads like this are why Vinyl Collective sometimes annoys the fuck out of me.

Can someone give me a summary as to what the deal with this release is so I don't have to read through 89 pages of irrelevent posts?
