xtobi-wanx Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Grabbed a green. Not amused about the price tag, though. But, wtf, have I just payed only $8.28 to ship a record to Germany??? gazzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No This Is Patrick Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 I really don't need this... but I kinda want one... the alternate artwork would go well with the alternate artwork "Messengers"... I don't need to be a variant collector though. I'm having a total Smeagol/Golem talk with myself now. And why so lazy with the mockups? They had a couple of days and could've added the "correct" artwork for this pressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistedshabazz Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 If you are in merchnows shoes do you blame them on the price point? This has been oop for awhile with a high price point they probably figure people will pay 22 easy for it and be glad to not spend 75+ anymore.

MayCauseDeath Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 This is my favorite album of theirs so 22 with 5$ shipping is fine to me if the other option is a 150$ original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just glad I'll finally own a copy regardless of the variant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCDELTAT Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Grabbed a swamp green. Don't have any ABR records on vinyl, so figured this would be a good start. rcafilm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcafilm Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 To clarify my comment, their records are a pain in the ass to get hold of because most were pressed in pretty limited quantities and often by kind of crappy distributors (Solid State, CI) so prices are usually pretty ridiculous. I slept on Leveler, Thrill Seeker, and Messengers and regret that pretty heavily even though I've heard they're all more or less mediocre pressings. I will say Rescue & Restore is an A+ pressing, so if you're into that album you'll definitely want a copy. The newest double version of the Christmas LP is also great sounding (45 rpm) and you can pick it up from SS for (relatively) a song at the moment. Far Away Places is a decent pressing and you should be able to find it pretty easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwiftCat Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I got the swamp green, still debating if it was worth it... Messengers will always be their best. didnt even sell out first day.. But just glad ill have it cause i love abr. looking more forward to norma jean new album, and the acb hell or high water pressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aych Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I grabbed a green copy yesterday, so excited to finally have this for so much less than what I almost paid two or three times in the last year or two. The first minute and a half of Marianas Trench is gonna be so satisfying to hear on wax. verb1999 and himynameisdk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwiftCat Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 It was in regards to the going out of your way and having to rush to buy an album... And then it doesnt sell out hype was just hype.. A lot of money goes into buying records. spending money is always less cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aych Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Not trying to stir the pot, but if you're not really into spending money, then getting into records was probably not a great choice. No This Is Patrick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
