    I don’t mean to be a dick... but.... shut it.  Shut it up. Shhh. 
     

    No more lists. No more Kanye. No. Stop it. 

    Literally no one cares one ounce about how you "rank" random albums.  Unless you're miss Swift herself, shut ya mouth and boot it.

     

    This is along the same lines as posting baby pictures, spotify rankings, or any other piece of information that you think is important for people to know about you as a person.  Ugh!

     

    I come here for TS news and nothing else.

     

    Thank you, andrewlucas.

    Got this in today which surprised me, and it arrived in quite possibly the flimsiest, thinnest cardboard mailer I’ve ever received. I could feel the bend before I even opened it. 
     

    only the jacket is a bit bent, thankfully no creases on it. Put the record on the platter and it looks like those records you see in cartoons, so yeah BSM is on my “do not buy from” list. 
     

    I’ve sent them an email but I generally don’t get my hopes up when these things happen. 

    Same. I’m pretty pissed.

    We don't have any other Tove Lo threads to my knowledge so we're gonna keep this rolling with not about Sunshine Kitty lol. My apologies...

    Be quick if you want it. Beats the $500 one on Discogs and it's never sold under $125 on Discogs.

    Was this ever in stock?  Were you able to add it to your cart?  I've been attempting over the last year and the product page is somewhat disfunctional.

    "No Ocean in Ireland" is back up on Spotify, "Body of Land" next.

    If you like what you hear and want the "No Ocean" black vinyl for free (you pay $4.99 shipping fee) send me a PM.

    I still love this album.  Really enjoy my "beer" colored wax.

    If you think the price of that Sparklehorse box is outrageous, wait until you see their subscription increase.

    HOLY shit.  I signed up last month for $60 for 3 months.  Not a bad deal.  I go to find they're going to autocharge me $119.99 next month for the next 3-months?  That's absolutely insane.  Double the price?! Zero notice of price increase whatsoever and there's no communication of any reasoning as to why?  Essentially $43/month for a record you may not like.  There's no way they don't lose 50%+ of their subscribers by the end of the year.  What a ridiculous move.  Absolutely awful.  I really enjoyed the one month I've received thus far, but...................... cancelling immediately.  Ugh.

    I'm curious how much you would be willing to sell it for?

    Um, good question.  I guess however much the rainbow Mario Kart variant goes for so I can purchase that with the funds?  If you'd like to PM me with an offer I'd be happy to entertain it.  Assumed a trade would be easier but who knows!  Thanks for the inquiry.

    there is a workaround to order internationally at JB Hi-Fi if people are encountering problems, especially with the "invalid number" hurdle that people can't get passed.  i can expound if ppl want assistance. ordered the gold Room For Squares last night (shipped to USA).

     

    also, Discogs has copies of the VMP turquoise variant of Continuum flying up and being sold rapidly for around $30 to $33 shipped. keep checking if that's the only one for which you're looking. otherwise, the JB Hi-Fi exclusives can be obtained with the workaround...

    I'd love to pick your brain about that if you have a minute or so sometime this week or next.  Thank you for offering!  I also want to snag that gold RFS

    Going to bump this ancient thread to say there was a European "A Beautiful Lie" repress at the end of 2018. (Red Wax)
    I don't think anyone ever mentioned it here on VC, but I just noticed it through discoggs. 

     

    Anyways, seems like you can grab a copy pretty cheap, I assume it was a big run. (Quantities Unknown)

    I just got one for new for less than half the cost of the U-Discover-Music pressing from when this thread started.

    Link?  Can't find it on the US store.

    I absolutely disagree. They’re essentially baking in extra profit by adding an item most don’t want. They could’ve just put the record up alone for $65 shipped and it would’ve sold out. I had no doubt it would. Just because an item that’s very in demand sells out doesn’t automatically mean the business is absolved of shady practices. They artificially inflated the price/profits by adding a T-shirt that cost probably $7 (I’m totally guessing...never printed ringer shirts before) to make. 

    Yeah I feel you.  I pulled the trigger on it.  Hated to, because I definitely don't need that extra crap.  I guess I can justify it by the included shipping and tax... $65 - 7% tax = $61, minus ~$8 shipping = $53.  I was willing to spend $30 on the record by itself, so a $23 difference for a shirt/slipmat isn't atrocious.  Again, I feel the pain.  This shit sucks, but I was just saying it's not bad practice for the label... they're just trying to make as much money as they can for such a small release.

     

    I would so much rather have 3 chipotle burritos though for that $23.  Ugh.
