counterfiction Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 enough with the deluxe packages already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted August 30, 2008 Author Share Posted August 30, 2008 enough with the deluxe packages already I think we're just seeing the start of them. Expect pretty much any relatively high-profile release to do these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadmonkey Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 enough with the deluxe packages already Seriously, I mainly got into vinyl because it cost less than the CD. These uber deluxe packages are getting out of hand. Just the vinyl, artwork and download code please... maybe a pint glass or button. But that's all I need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggle Von Swift Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 this isn't even a good deluxe package. not in any way worth that much money. i'd generally be interested in one for him, but not if that's all it includes for that price.

Yeah, I was sort of thinking the same thing. You figure the average retail value for each CD would be $13.99, the average retail value for the DVD would be $14.99 and the 2xLP we already know is $16.99. That's still only $60. I don't view a box and a booklet to be worth $25 more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
