Oblivions Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) I'm looking into the Stones Throw Records vinyl sub for 2018. It's $380 after CA tax and shipping for everything they put out on vinyl in 2018. I wanted to see if anyone here subbed in 2017 and what your thoughts were. It seems like it's not a huge savings to pay $380 for 12-17 pieces of vinyl but they mention shipping some items before the street date and perhaps having some sub member exclusives (a Jay Dilla 7" this year). What did you enjoy/not enjoy about subbing in the past? What would you share with someone who is thinking of subbing?

jaypeap Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I always wondered if they included the rare test presses they sometimes sell, but never got a clear answer. Oblivions 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. I'm also a little confused on where the line is between a new release, an old release that is getting a new vinyl pressing, and an old release that is getting pressed on vinyl for the first time and which ones I'd get. I reached out to them on social media a few days ago with a question on that and haven't heard back. That lack of clarity plus this year's sub being $50 more than 2017 with no real details on why is making me lean toward playing it safe and skipping on subscribing.
