throughbeingcruel Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 If that shit so much as has a seam split, I'd be pissed. I normally don't give a shit about that stuff, but a $400 box that you can easily buy 99% of the components for barely over half the price means I expect some good shit. andynz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusted_By_Space Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 For all seven records, no lenticulars or boxset, I'm into it for about $130 total. The box should at most cost maybe $170. The retail price on the box is just the insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

am153 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I'm a little confused. The non lenticular versions are up for preorder on Amazon but its stated they are normal weight vinyl and not 180g. I'd prefer to order from Amazon to get free Prime shipping but not if they are not 180g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I like the feel of 180g. If they are available in both normal weight and 180g for the same price, I'm sure most people would choose the 180g.

throughbeingcruel Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 It always said standard weight for the non-lenticular versions on most sites. That's why I got the lenticulars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some super flimsy Decca LPs that wobble like crazy because they are so thin, yet they are some of my best sounding records. fuckinandsuckinandtouchin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
