Sorry not hating, I'm just cheap and rarely spend that much on a single title. if I was to spend that much on a copy I'm just saying I'd go for that one. Enjoy your trip! stl_ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinyl addict Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 (edited) Man I envy the people who have no problem wasting their money on a single LP for $50 retail, when the same master is available for $20 in any record shop. It's funny really. They could charge $100 and people would eat it up. Look at the cool colors tho!

And these have screenprinted covers, which I'm pretty excited about. But I hope they're not $50 Edited February 23, 2017 by dreamover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Right? You can buy a $10 movie poster at walmart or you can buy a $65 screen printed poster from mondo. Buy what you want, it's all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also crudely draw your own movie posters on the back of old Chinese takeout menus using leftover packets of soy sauce. That's the best bang for your buck. stl_ben, bigdz68 and Stress On The Sky 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgoodtobefree Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) How limited are these exclusives supposed to be? Like 'you better line up hours before' limited or 'just show up at any time when they're open tomorrow ' limited? I might swing buy to get the Stooges record but I don't feel like getting up early.

stl_ben Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 People started lining up yesterday. About 20 in line at lunch time. I'm exploring town and not wasting my time there. But yeah the specials are suppose to last all day. Show up whenever, just expect a long line as it will be packed all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id like to think they are pressing a large volume because they have the equipment to do what they want and not have to ship finished records, but collectible vinyl is desirable and it would be a huge bummer if they ran out by noon. stl_ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the past several years, Record Store Day releases available in Nashville have been available all day. I don't see this being any different.

MtrCtyWx Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) It's a good way to show what they are capable of doing as a pressing plant. I've seen pictures of color vinyl prototypes (besides the offering for tomorrow) so I'm sure this is just the beginning of people camping out days in advance for Third Man rare stuff.

apirk Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Would love the Stooges or MC5 ones, hope they end up in vault novelties at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have been camping for his records for years. I have 3 times in the past, but it will take something else as crazy as the Triple Decker record for me to do it again.

dreamover Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 FYI - LPs are $30. They just started pressing The Stooges tonight and I'm not sure how much those are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluetripleb1 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Thanks for the updates. I'm on the way! 30 is very reasonable too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 If they press 5000 records per 8hr shift, is it unreasonable to assume, the runs for these may be a couple thousand each? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtrCtyWx Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 The line doesn't seem more than a few blocks as of now. Should be win/win for everyone. NewOldStock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
