andrews Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 So I just got a copy of Botch - We are the Romans for $15 PPD. The reason is that the cover has some water damage. The inside of the gatefold got it the worst. Here are some pics: I still think this is an amazing deal, I just thought I'd see what everyone else thinks. How much weight do you put into the condition of the cover? EDIT: Didn't realize the pictures were that big....thats just what he sent me and I guess firefox scaled it. Sorry.

hickey Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 You can't listen to the cover. I say you got a good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyk36 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I'm kind of a condtion freak myself.....If that was a record I had been looking to get I'd probably pass this up and wait until I could afford a copy in better condition, BUT a lot of my "white whales" so to speak aren't too hard to come by, they're just a bit pricey, (i.e., Jawbreaker's Dear You) I don't know how rare this record is though, if it was something that only came along every once in awhile on the 'bay I might consider it. -sorry to be long winded.

andrews Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 Ive never seen it go for less than $50 + shipping on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattisr1984 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 for 15 dollars, its a pretty good deal all things considered. obviously itd be nice to have one in better condition but if all you care about is being able to listen to the album on vinyl, then its a steal.

sgoodcore Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 It doesn't look like its horrendous but I'm not too familiar with how its suppose to look to say. I'd say for one third of the going rate a little bit of wear on the cover isn't a big issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jess7286 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 If the record plays fine, I'd say you're set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troymess Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Great deal all the way. Classic record! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vardcore Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Buy it for $15, then LISTEN TO IT while you seek an immaculate copy. Then you will have more resolve waiting for a good deal. Is it colored vinyl? If so, GRAB IT. You can always switch them if you find a black copy with a better cover later. The first 3 sides of this are intense.
