Anybody know how much the Rusty EU-RSD Version went for?

My local record store just mailed me that he got one for me but didn't write the price...since he wanted 225€ for the South Park OST, I'm thinking he's probably wanting too much for this one...

According to Discogs (and the images seem to bear this out), the rust and orange variants are different.

The only place I have seen the rust online (and I haven't looked; I just came across this when looking for the orange) is Flight 13.

€44.90!!!!!

There was also a link there for the orange one, which makes it more likely that they are different. It gives an error, but the URL shows what it was for:

Listened to it a couple of times and I'm still unsure. Sounds like they did their best to strech the band's core sound and were pretty confident about where it was going. But at the same time, it's not an album that brings Sunn O))) back to a brilliant experimental game such as the Whites, Black One and Monoliths did. It's like they somewhat wanted to make Kannon right and thought about Albini to put things straight.

 

So it's a good Sunn O))) album , more relevant than Kannon, but a chapter that might settle down sooner than their best records. I just ordered the RSD black 2xLP and might get surprised when enjoy it in my turntable glory. Hopefully.

Thanks, man. I was told by my record store that it's 49.99€....too expensive for a 2xLP IMO (unless it's PT/SW :D )

Just received the deluxe purple edition, it looks beautiful, can't wait to play it later and hear how it sounds.  Major kudos to Sunn/Southern Lord for how well they package their records for shipping especially for the reasonable shipping and handling charges, no other label that I've ordered from comes close to the care they put into it.  They also included a White 1&2 turntable mat which I've never seen, that was an awesome bonus
