john Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Can we please talk about the price gouging going on here with this record? A single LP in a standard glossy jacket with a picture sleeve on 120g vinyl for $25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfiend Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Don't buy it if you don't like the price. It's that easy. We need a thread dedicated to people complaining about prices of new LP's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A single LP in a standard glossy jacket with a picture sleeve on 120g vinyl for $25 I'm not 100% sure, but is the variant you're talking about pressed in America? Hell, are any of the variants pressed on America? I'm really not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack8urt0n Posted August 20, 2015 Author Share Posted August 20, 2015 http://kingsroadmerch.com/ghost/view/?id=7726&cid=2082 $22, not $25 Gatefold with 12 page booklet, likely bound to gatefold (like their previous album) Seems fair.

negavinyl Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 http://kingsroadmerch.com/ghost/view/?id=7726&cid=2082 $22, not $25 Gatefold with 12 page booklet, likely bound to gatefold (like their previous album) Seems fair. So is the only difference between this version and the Hot Topic version the color? They both have the 12 page booklet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack8urt0n Posted August 20, 2015 Author Share Posted August 20, 2015 That is a very safe assumption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffthomas84 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 ordered my HT version, still quite surprised this is the only color option for the States Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mourning Wood Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 ordered my HT version, still quite surprised this is the only color option for the StatesHT linky. Wonder how many they pressed in this color. Probably at least 100. http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/DWTest/Unisex/Ghost+-+Meliora+Vinyl+LP+Hot+Topic+Exclusive-10458028.jsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallowken78 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Ordered a HT. Travis, will stores have these on shelves today? If so I may go pick one up and spin it tonight then just return the one I ordered online. I'm getting impatient to hear this on wax! Anyone go to any of the Unholy/Unplugged shows? Curious if they're allowing pictures with Papa and the Ghouls... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoziBod4 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Went to buy the Hot Topic exclusive (that would bring my pre-order vinyl count up to 5.. Muahahaha) but saw that shipping would be $32 to Canada! Fml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadmonkey Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Hot topic version sold out online.. I may have picked up the last one as it just went out of stock after I ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 We'll get more copies of Ghost up online soon and I'll get a list of stores it was sent to and post that here as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djinnocide Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Tried giving my local Hot Topic a call and they told me they haven't received today's shipment yet, but they took my phone number and said they'd give me a ring if they got it. Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think these will stay online a while, or is the press number so low they'll sell out quick? I don't have an HT near me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough to say but there's a lot more copies going up next time this goes on the site than there was when it went up today. Just not sure exactly when they will be back online.

negavinyl Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Picked this up from my local HT. The booklet is tits, but is not bound to the jacket, which is not a gatefold. Just for future reference. Sounds good so far. Really digging the album. Sounds like they absorbed the more pop elements of Infest and filtered them through Opus' more rocking sound. Complaint: don't waste the title Devil Church on what amounts to an interlude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apeman Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 The Scandinavia exclusive green vinyl version comes with a gatefold jacket and a glued in booklet. That is the only one I have had in my hands thus far, and it is really well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kannibal Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I was just looking at this on Discogs, and the HT version is listed as having the same deadwax as the Euro pressings. Is this accurate? My US black has CB (Chris Bellman) in the deadwax and was not pressed at MPO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kannibal Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Just a killer record, though. Building on the good from everything previously done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
