By all means, show me where I can snag a copy of this year's National RSD exclusive on eBay for $26.00 or so, and I'll shut right up. Check the link I posted – eBay is essentially the last place you'd want to check for a "good deal" on RSD exclusives right now. Not sure why you're struggling to grasp that. There are plenty of copies being flipped on Discogs, too, you're right. But for the most part - and from prior years' experience - you're much more likely to find a reasonably priced RSD exclusive on Discogs than eBay. (Neither of which are preferred to getting lucky with distro overstock.) This isn't rocket science. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Questhate Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Super bummed. Went to the three stores around me and couldn't get my hands on a National which is the one that I really wanted. If anyone sees an extra copy and can snag me one for a reasonable price, I'd be forever in your debt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Two hot commodities for this RSD; Arcade Fire's self-titled and The National's Boxer (Live). Arcade Fire has sold for $43 at the cheapest, up to $70+. National has sold for $50 at the cheapest, up to $80+. Both are $20, $25 records. I'm not arguing that you can't eventually find a deal for these on eBay at some point down the road, but my original statement doesn't go out the window because one person found a "fairly cheap" copy of a Teenage Bottlerocket LP. That's all I'm saying. I will be eying eBay and other avenues very closely for the next day or so, but I'm not holding my breath. For both of our sakes I'd like to be wrong, but I'm only speaking from having played the RSD game for the past 5-6 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resist the urge and wait a few weeks and the prices will be much more reasonable. Derek™ and OneThreeOneTwo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratsky9 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I bought a copy of sha sha, and there is a 2nd center label pressed directly on the grooves! I reached out to the label, but if they can’t replace it, does anyone have ideas for removing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to have those tracks digitally., Epitaph said they won't be available on any digital platforms. I will do it sometime this weekend. Funny thing is, the hype sticker says download card included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluescreenlife Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Was able to grab Floyd, Arcade Fire, the Sundays, and Wire 7" box, which I'm currently spinning and man this thing jammmms. Never heard 'em so full and punchy. Almost put it back due to the kinda steep price, glad I didn't. OneThreeOneTwo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoBlue325 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Any word on what stores are listing and when? I remember in the past Melody Supreme having a lot, but their side doesnt work for me. I know Amoeba lists there stuff as well. Usually we have a list on the site, but havent come across anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
