timsimmons Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) Pink and black vinyl at the Wilco store. /1000 $500 super deluxe edition too Edited July 16, 2019 by timsimmons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalenforcer Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I could maybe see gouging your fans if you made like 25 of those books, and that price would still be pure insanity, but 1000? That cover looks like an ultra-simplified AMSP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamJNovak Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I think I'm going to wait to see if there's an indie exclusive through Bullmoose if not, the pink variant for $28 is fine with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc32137 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 $500 for a record and a glorified pop-up book. No thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Why have your record go to flippers who will mark it up when you can just sell it for flipper prices and then some up front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC1221 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I like they they limited the $500 version to 2 per person. Like someone out there is really going to drop a grand on a not very limited late-career Wilco album. That being said, I love this band and already bought the pink.

It's not that, it's the sheer stupidity of the pressing quantity + price here. Whoever thought this would move is insane. At this rate they'll be stuck with what, best case... 950?... leftover copies. I guess that'd net them a massive profit because even with the bells and whistles they're promoting here, these things ain't costing much to print. This may be the stupidest display of vinyl-selling hubris I've witnessed by a band before.

veggiecorecords Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) Yeah, holy shit. $500 Deluxe LP that most bands sell for $60. WOW. I've seen it all. Perhaps they messed up and added an extra 0 and it should be $50. Edited July 16, 2019 by veggiecorecords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRHews Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I'd say since 2011, with TWL. The song is promising but holding out for a full listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, no one has to buy it. There are cheaper options. I would only consider it a gouge if it was the only way to get it on vinyl.

Clownshow Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) So you are paying $478.05 for a book. Edited July 16, 2019 by Clownshow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocity of Sound Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Looks like the $500 deluxe has run out of steam with 981 copies left. Theyre really shooting themselves in the foot on this one. The deluxe is also only available to U.S. customers. BeerMonger and tvrec 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
