I need to get a custom frame for the original poster but this will do for now.

I am tired of repressed records for RSD and BFRSD!!!
 
WTF?!?!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

This is exactly where I'm at, I wanna pick the record up so badly but don't wanna risk not getting that clear variant.

Oh GOD DAMNIT.

Shilled as well!

So...here is the deal.  I'm tired of repressed records...in particular within the same year!  Yeah, older stuff that hasn't been pressed in a years, decades even is OK (and sometimes f'n awesome), but I'm super tired of going to RSD to buy exclusive releases and finding out they repressed it a few months later.  Don't give me the "Why should I buy more on Ebay for limited quantities argument either" or "supply and demand", because that does not fly with me. 
 
For RSD 2013, we have alrady seen repressed recoreds by The White Stripes Elephant...IE see Mad Season's Above.  Both were limited, but a few months later are massive releases. 
 
I mean, I get that they change it from Numbered and Colored to Not Numbered and Black, but I'm tired of seeing bands offer something exclusive and then later offering the same thing in a different varation only a few short months later.  It's not like I'm against bands making money, but I'm against disclosing it's limited because it's stamped and then pressing twice the amount a few months later. It's like having a funeral for someone and the day after everyone wants a piece of the inheritance!
 
It devalues the entire point of collecting.  I am guessing that even if you repress 5000 black records after you sell 5000 stamped records, the cash you are making isn't going to put you into retirement, so why risk your fan base if you pull that garbage?
 
Anyone feel the same way?  Can you think of another band that you felt duped by for shelling out coin for RSD only to be pissed off a few months later? My thought is that RSD should have a contract with the bands that they can't repress the vinyl for a certain amount of months / years after they contribute to RSD.  After all, it's a massive success and probably wouldn't disaude bands and labels from the concept of supporting RSD!
 
In full disclosure, I love buying vinyl and I support bands, but I don't like buying something that is advertised as limited and then be jacked a few months later.
 
Off my soap box...talk amongst yourselves!

Record labels are in the business of manufacturing and selling records. HOW DARE THEY keep them in print and selling them, allowing them to make more records and (hopefully) pay a royalty to the artists. 
 
This thread is one of the most ridiculous I've read in awhile. If you are buying records for any other reason other than your love of music then you are a fucking moron. The entire purpose of records (at least ones not filled with water or jack white's pubes in some stupid gimmick) is to PLAY THEM TO HEAR THE MUSIC. If you want to collect things solely as an investment then buy stocks.

Ugh why do people post the same thing in both the recent purchases and solid mail day threads?

Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair
Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn't very fuzzy, was he?
 

If you're that unhappy about it, then you should write to ITR and cancel your order for the deluxe edition. I'm sure somebody else will buy your copy.
 
It's ridiculous how people are getting up in arms about this. I love how people have some absurd expectations about how labels are supposed to conduct themselves regarding pressing records.
 
They shouldn't press more because more people want it. I want to be special and have something NOBODY else has!!
 
Or from the Scott Pilgrim thread:
 
They can't do another red vinyl pressing! That goes against the rules!
 
If they want to press more copies, then let them press more copies. If you don't like it, don't buy it. All of this should be about the music. If you like the music buy it. If you're just buying the record because it's a limited edition, you're doing it wrong.

Did you buy it because it was limited or did you buy it because it was a unique release from an awesome band?

The last time they did a Groupon it was $15 for $30 so this is kind of lame. But I went for two Groupons anyway. You can easily grab more if you use different emails and credit cards.
 
The Groupon deal doesn't expire until Nov 25 so if you're visiting LA soon, you can use this as well.

Maybe you should have kept reading until the next word.

I just moved into a room in my buddy's house. I had to downsize the collection due to space issues. (I used to have three 2x4 expedits. And now the rest of my collection is in storage.) But here's the current setup. I also have a 2x2 Expedit in the closet.
 

I think pre-order bundles were the last thing on Dave's mind when he signed.

Maybe his 11 year old wrote it for him.

Holy grammar fuck...

Here we are at the ordering stage and colored vinyl is still ahead of unreleased songs. Makes me sad,

not sure if the discount code is one time only but i used "WELCOME" and it worked.

i wish Suicide Squeeze were putting this out. The TWDY records that I have on Magic Bullet always have a ton of surface noise.

got my yellow copy today.
