dapeebs Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Damn that hurt. Been waiting on Deloused for too long to miss out on it though. Curious to see if these make it to my local shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisapple Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Prices are a joke. If you're buying multiple, hold off and buy through another retailer later. These prices are padded with "free" DHL shipping but its really a bad deal for those of us buying several. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solitaryreign Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Just now, redroom said: So if you want all 6-7 records you have to pay shipping for each record because they were kind enough to already include it in the price? Pretty much, because they’ll probably ship one every month. Logistics and manufacturing decisions for sure chrisapple 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iggy_Pilot Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 "Exclusive Clouds Hill edition" I wonder what this actually means? I don't see the exclusivity being black vinyl? Or just because these standalone releases will be not available in retail (which I do not believe actually)? chrisapple 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathPeak Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Not gonna lie, I've never been more hesitant to buy a record, but I bit the bullet on De-Loused and Frances. I'll wait for the others to hit the clearance bin. chrisapple 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliminator Jr. Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Wow, I thought the box set was pricey as hell, but with the individual releases stacking up to pretty much the same I’m almost willing to call it a cheapo haha.. Also laughing about the CEO of Clouds Hill stating that people won’t have to worry about scalpers on eBay anymore. Wouldn’t have thought he’ll be trying to preemptively outscalp them all. chrisapple and tokimedo 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INRIhab Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 So if you were to buy all the albums individually in one go. It would be what? 10 bucks cheaper than what the box set was originally going for? You'd also have to wait until the end of the year to have them all? You know Johann is sitting watching the money come in like...

Derek™ Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Wow, CH even priced everything to favor the fans who only buy 1-2 albums at most. With shipping baked directly into the costs, you’re actually punished for trying to add on more of their discography. chrisapple and daegor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I was planning to nab FTM, Bedlam, and Tremulant, but these prices are wacky... I bit the bullet on Frances , because I’m not missing out. I won’t chance this like the MBV situation. Dude who listed those prices on Instagram is a dick though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCDELTAT Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Lol I stopped reading at page 16 and just caught up now. Good stuff. Died laughing at the guy quoting $35 records. So you can buy everything from the box set minus the two demos. Comes out to $432 for everything. They keep saying it’s unlimited. That they have their minimum order in, and they’ll just re-up when reaching that quantity. I’m a verrrrry filthy casual of TMV, so I’ll wait and think on it.

Sad Heart Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Are those $40 price tags for 3xLPs accurate when taking into account the shipping via DHL from overseas is included in the every album since they’re shipping separately? I get it, but I don’t understand why they are doing it this way. Have them all shipped to the US then ship from there. Why is every person having to pay a shipping charge built into each individual album. If these were $40 each and were shipping from the US I’d say ok, but no way I’m paying $130 for two albums. I want to, but I won’t. chrisapple 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwgncpr Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 LOL, these prices. I would have happily ordered 2 or 3 of these at least, but yeah no. A $61 2xLP is a fucking joke. ex lion tamer and chrisapple 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob-o-cop Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 At this point, I'm just glad I got the box. These single LPs are ridiculous as many of you have said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
