eight Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Bleh. I'm too late on the draw. It's a shame of the time frame you have to order these in to get color. D4 is still the best band ever though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamlikesmusic Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Yeah the past few FAT releases lasted days. Granted D4 is one of those ones people go nuts after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew13 Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 the last 2 were still available two days ago. not sure about now, to tired to look. but if fat was thinking they'd press around 1k on color (like the do nofx) and be able to move a ton on their site.

sherlock Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 that's what i was thinking. it's definitely more color than they presed for say, the loved ones or the flatliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they don't press 1000 on color for any release. At that point you might as well make it a continuous press on color. It's a balancing act between making it special for the collectors and an ebay bonanza on the other. 500 seems like a good number for the colored stuff for most bands. What do I know though? I'm just a collector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just a collector. They've done over 1000 before. WIWC comes to mind. (Might be the only one, I don't know.) Shouldn't tell them how to run their business just because you either want something limited under 500, or not limited at all. Making something too "special for collectors" is what leads to the "ebay bonanza". Fewer copies = Fewer collectors getting a copy = Higher resale prices. More copies = More collectors getting a copy = Lower resale prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommytumult Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Ordered! I'll be stoked if it's on color but it's not a deal breaker at this point, I just really want the record. I've resisted downloading the leak and only just listened to the punknews stream yesterday. I WANT this record! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezfools Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 listen to the first ten seconds of one song on the fat site, otherwise, no idea what to expect. Mainly because I'm on dialup and any time I'm near wifi, I forget about things like this. Oh well, should be good. Ordered, D4, GR and SU. My copy of for god and country on black is so old and beat, had it for close to ten years now and has seen better days, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Making something too "special for collectors" is what leads to the "ebay bonanza"." I fully understand supply and demand in vinyl collecting. The problem I defined is striking the right balance between collectibility and availability. I said I think 500 is the right number. You don't have to be at your computer refreshing every 5 seconds, but you also can't wait weeks for it. It's only my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should a label care about "striking a balance between collectibility and availability"? It will be available on black vinyl, so it's not unavailable. What's the point of doing a limited pressing of something if only to try to make sure everyone who will want one will get one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
