jeromium Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Mission of Burma exclusives would be tempting if I hadn't picked up a black Vs. reissue recently, and if they weren't so fucking EXPENSIVE. $27.99 for single albums. I could deal with $24.99 single LPs when I first started buying from them, especially with free shipping above $75. But high 20s is a joke. I know, we've been over this.

I was disappointed that Vs wasn't the Deluxe version matador put out years ago or I would have pulled the trigger on that regardless of it being $35.99 OneThreeOneTwo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeardedSteven Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I would spring for those Helium ones but with RSD being this weekend it's just gonna have to wait. Hopefully they'll stick around a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting around ~175 now, so I'd imagine total runs for both are only /300. unknown pleasures 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may pull the trigger on DOL at least. I'd rather have that than anything coming out Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I like color variants and all but I'm only ever willing to pay up to $5 extra for one over a standard black reissue - assuming I don't have another copy already and find the color appealing and appropriate for the album (in this case they look good).

BeardedSteven Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 300 each on the Helium LPs confirmed via twitter. I guess I shouldn't really wait long then. Can one of you all smarter than me types update on how many left to see how fast they're going? I'm on the road today but can stop again to hit the button if I need to.

OneThreeOneTwo Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 (edited) If they filled Side D up with B-sides (like this) I'd buy it. But yeah, mimicking the front cover's colour palette is a bad choice. 50/50 is always dicey in terms of sound fidelity, too.

I ended up with 2 inner sleeve seam splits I had emailed the before shipping and kindly requested them to separate vinyl from printed sleeves. They said no cause that way they couldnt accept my item in a possible return request. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneThreeOneTwo Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Suddenly those Com Truise LPs are no longer exclusive to USA. Kinda annoying I had to wait for the US market to not sell out of this before us barbarians at the gate get our turn. Anyway, I got Galactic Melt reissue. Thanks @hammertime you're too legit 2 quit. I'm good with pink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
