Kermit Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Fallout 3 vinyl box set http://store.bethsoft.com/books-and-other-media/fallout-3-special-edition-vinyl-soundtrack.html Now available for pre-order $85 ltd. 2500 It looks like a nice release but people won't be running for it at that price or quantity. 2500 copies is almost a quarter of a million dollars. The whole 'limited' thing is an illusion to draw people in. They press too many and expect too much in return. There were periods when companies used to give away vinyl records as limited promotional items for video games for free. Presses at 2000, 2500 and 3000 labeled 'limited' doesn't cut it when aimed at a niche market. I doubt they would have that many amount buying the same soundtracks digitally even for a fraction of the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People would have been more into it if it was some selections from the score and some actual GNR tracks imo. Also cheaper too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalnutSoap Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 POKEMON RECORDS? WHAT POKEMON RECORDS? (iirc the plant only pressed 10 instead of like 100, so they had to go back into production which I would guess meant going to the back of that particular plant's to-do list.)

Ogrejoyed Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Uhm okay I was unaware of any Pokemon Records. I may be far behind here, but I would love some information on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toomanyrecords Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 http://store.iam8bit.com/collections/vinyl/products/uncharted-the-nathan-drake-collection-vinyl-soundtrack-3xlp This is up. $55. No word to if it's limited or not. If it isn't, I'd potentially grab it in the future but if it is, it'd be nice to know so I don't miss it.

Rip Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Gahhhh, gotta get that Uncharted. Also, this was posted in the regular "OST" thread, but I felt like it should be here: The "Everybody's Gone To The Rapture" soundtrack is coming to vinyl soon! I'm so excited for this! http://modern-vinyl.com/2015/11/03/everybodys-gone-to-the-rapture-ost-coming-to-vinyl/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Fuck I want the uncharted set. The price is right and the art is so good. I grabbed it. Came out to $68.68 shipped.

slinch Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Now that they have a UK store I'll drop a huge order once I get the funds together, this + FTL + journey + most likely also super hexagon & bit.trip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalnutSoap Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 55 dollars. Now that's how you price a 3LP set. SPACELAB/BETHESDA LOOKING AT YOU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmlevine Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 55 dollars. Now that's how you price a 3LP set. SPACELAB/BETHESDA LOOKING AT YOU I agree that $55 is nice but the ~$15 shipping brings Uncharted to ~$70. Fallout was $85 shipped and also has a 7''. It also has the triple gatefold and SPECIAL book. Hard to draw a direct comparison since not many details were given for Uncharted, but I don't feel like Fallout was outrageous considering it is Fallout.

Fallout 3 was $118 shipped for me. Uncharted would cost me $71 shipped. Nearly $50 less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmlevine Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Maybe for you. Fallout 3 was $118 shipped for me. Uncharted would cost me $71 shipped. Nearly $50 less. Didn't see your location. I'm sure someone could ship Fallout to you cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinch Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Didn't see your location. I'm sure someone could ship Fallout to you cheaper. Highly unlikely, international shipping from USA is extremely expensive, while iam8bit recently opened a UK store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalnutSoap Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 My point is just that a product's value shouldn't be linked to how much it costs to ship. The Uncharted set costs $15 to ship because it likely costs $15 to ship. Bethesda can probably charge a lot less for shipping because their operation is a hell of a lot bigger. Either way, they're still overcharging for that Fallout set IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think it was an outrageous price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No This Is Patrick Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Just a thought. Shipping Fallout (in the US) is FREE. Postage isn't going to pay itself and box sets aren't lightweight. So... I'd think the shipping price would be similar and Fallout is actually being sold for $65-$70. (Yes it still might not justify the price and UK/rest of the world don't have it fair).
