One guy bought four of these. I'm assuming they're not that limited or they'd put a cap on how many you can buy. Could be wrong though. I just want the record, but I'm not paying $50. Maybe the deluxe editions are signed. Since we paid almost four times the amount. Awesome.

I got mine through the ticket presale and you were limited to 2 copies with your order. Wish I had gotten another one now.. This one is signed too and it's a different color than the standard pressing.

Nah man. Lovin the free bumps. Flame on.

Yea, you're wrong. These will more than likely go up online if they have extras.

So they will MORE THAN LIKELY go up online IF they have extras? Sounds pretty readily available to me!

Haters gonna hate.

someone trying to "generate some cash" from something that, for the most part is readily available....and I'M the ass?

sounds about right.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the tour exclusive variant isn't that readily available. You had to preorder with the tickets or go to the show to get it. Since the US tour ended Friday, I'd say that they just became (unless you live in the UK near where they are touring) pretty un-readily available.

And telling me what I paid for a record did seem somewhat unnecessary.

I actually didn't even pay shipping! It was $15 straight up.. but thanks for pointing that out. Preordered it when I ordered tickets and picked it up at the show. However, as I mentioned I have a few things I need money for, so thanks for your interest, but no.

hello all. bought a house in august, getting married in november, car died last week. long story short im up the creek. taking offers on the signed red tour variant of Bad Books II and the ETR Red/Black Swirl variant of KDev Circle Gets the Square. Help a brotha out. If this generates some cash might list some more good stuff so stay tuned kids. Get at me.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but usually when you preorder something through amazon, they don't actually charge you until the day it ships. All the preorder did was give them a scale of demand, not funds.

That's pretty much only amazon. Most labels and distros charge upfront. The best example of why its a bad idea using preorders to fund the pressing is MTS pressing TOYPAJ. That's the kind of shit you get into if you aren't careful.

Fingers crossed for mignonette.. Not holding my breath though.

yea.. i'll probably snag S.C.I.E.N.C.E. and Make Yourself for nostalgia purposes, don't think there's any reason to camp out for those though. I don't see my world ending if I don't get anything else.. they all seem like releases that would be a lot cheaper if they weren't attached to RSD.. people will buy them though so the madness will continue.

RSD was designed to help struggling brick and mortar stores by creating an event that would encourage collectors to come out to actual stores. It's not a perfect system. In fact as its grown its actually become a pretty fucking weak excuse for big label commercialism to disguise itself as "indie". That coupled with a shitty culture of elitism that puts smaller stores in jeapordy of missing out has made RSD something that gets a lot of hate. But it's still designed to get people out to stores. I think with a few adjustments it could be awesome again, but letting people buy stuff online is a step in the wrong direction.

$50 with no bonus tracks? I get the 200g 45rpm 4 sided awesomeness is for great sound and all, but this album isn't THAT sonically complex. I'm not thinking there are too many subtle nuances to be picked up that I would miss with a standard (Read: less expensive) pressing. probably will still buy because its better than $400.

I have the box version. I got it off someone without the shirt a while back. It's a really stupid package. Record sounds fine though.

Someone pay me $400 for my copy. I dare you.

Can't they just repress Losing Streak as a gatefold and not a pic disc? Killing me.

This. And anthem.

Is it just me or has like every copy of this ended up on eBay.

I probably wouldn't have gone for it were it not for such a great cause.. But I already own D&G so I dunno...

But I don't have put your ghost to rest so count me in haha

I sold mine because it sounded awful. Horrible pressing.

Really I hadn't heard that before... maybe spending lots of money is a bad idea then...

I'd forgotten all about that jokester. He's probably living under a bridge in a shack made from jackets of all the unsold Gatsby's vinyl he's sitting on.

haha.. i feel for the guy having not sold as many as he thought he could.. glad he did it though as I spin both of them regularly.. wish he could do the rest

wonder when the band will make an announcement

Is the dude at that overdue collections label on these boards? He's working with Gatsbys American Dream getting their back catalog pressed and I know GAD was tight with Acceptance back in the day.. Wonder if they could be contacted through Nic?

Samesies especially if ETR did it. Their releases are always so legit.

No one said they are signing the cover. It's possible that they will sign somewhere on the inside the booklet or perhaps on the back.

Yea I was referring to the pic on the previous page which is of the copy I got.

haha people will really complain about ANYTHING on this board...

People will flame unnecessarily about ANYTHING on this board. I don't think a bunch of scribbles all over the cover of my LP qualify as complaining about just ANYTHING. Just saying I didn't know it was going to happen. I liked the way Andy did the RAGC set, just a small sig in the bottom right corner on the back by the numbering. I personally feel autographs that take up that much space on the front of my record take away from the album art. If I were to get an autograph a) it would mean something because it would have the connection of me actually getting the sig. and b ) i would get them to sign the insert. Mind your fucking business unless you have something constructive to add.

congrats dude! best get EVER! also @anchorclose, you should do another one haha, what else you got?
