dynamitekid Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I went to a record store and I was looking through the records and they had copies of Weezer "Pinkerton" and Rancid "let's go" (2x10") for sale, completely new and unsealed. They were $30. Should I get these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrews Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 do you like them, or are you asking if you should buy them strictly based on their rarity? do people actually do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minty Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 It depends if you like the bands or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynamitekid Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 I like both bands but i'm not sure if that is over priced or not for those records. I'm not exactly sure but i'm pretty sure the pinkerton record is an import. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flood Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 the weezer record is most likely the recent repress. and $30 is a lil high for lets go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlovecolouredx Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 back to the store and ask for both as 20 bucks. anyway,it depend on their condition.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante3000 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 The Pinkerton is likely a recent press. It tends to go for around $25 but $30 is a tad bit high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impact Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 30 bucks each ?.. i would say its not worth it IMO. i just bought lets go for 7 bucks at my local store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
counterfiction Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 $25-30 is about normal for the import in a store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxv Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 That Rancid record is about 40 dollars overpriced! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinyljunkie Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 that rancid goes for that on ebay. but its not worth it. just ask yourself if you would enjoy those records 30 dollars worth. if yes then yes. its a good buy if no then no, its not a good buy. ps. if you look around and wait a bit, youll find those records for cheaper.

scottheisel Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I haven't heard anything about another Pinkerton repress recently; print this out and take it to the store to see if you can identify which one it is: release history - identifying the various Pinkerton vinyl LP issues.1996 USA - original. 5000 pressed. Cardboard matte on exterior, glossy on interior. inner sleeve has black and white map and the studio photos as used in CD booklet. ID: dgc-25007. 1996 UK - note: this edition is not confirmed to exist! - reportedly seen on sale in UK in '96 at non-import price. no photos known. 1996 Japan - note: this edition is not confirmed to exist! - no info nor photos known. 2001 Japan reissue - this edition includes the 'map/photos' inner sleeve. No other info is known, presumably it says made in Japan on the back cover somewhere. Label unknown. 2002 Europe Reissue note: this edition is not confirmed to exist! - no photos known. If exists, would be like the Blue album one, sealed with the "Universal Masters vinyl reissue" sticker, made in the EU. UNKNOWN EDITION: 2002 reissue - Unknown if a USA edition or an import. This is the one originally thought to be a bootleg, but turned out to be legitimately ordered from distributors. It appears to have been modeled after the original USA edition from 1996. Its label says DGC and Geffen Records [similar to the 2002 '6/4 songs' Blue album edition]. ID: dgc-25007 425 007-1. This edition DOES have a barcode, #20642 50071 - same as the '96 original. The main identifying factor is that the spine of the record cover does NOT have any writing on it [whereas the original says "weezer - pinkerton"]. Also the inner sleeve is a plain white sleeve, not the 'map/photos' sleeve of the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benchwarmer Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I'd love some weezer vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hickey Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 The Let's Go fluctuates. It's a great record. I got mine for $10. Pinkerton is also great. If you can work out a way to pay $30 total for both, take 'em. $30 each is steep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
