I opted for the Bull Moose purple nebula version.

 

My gawd, this $40 price point for new records is just MURDER on my finances. 😵

I can live with $40 for a double LP but $50 is really pushing it. I like that web store pinkish one but I don’t know if I have it in me. You know this is going to be widely available and discounted at some point.

Some EU options... no mention of color on the latter two, but considering I'd get free shipping from them it's a much more palatable option. I think I'll wait. The boxset is an easy pass... a photo-book from a music video? Why?

Thanks, was trying to find a UK option yesterday with no luck!

Yep...😄

 

However, I made out like a bandit in the last Deep Discount clearance.

 

Guess this is giving it back to them. I also really like Bull Moose. 👍🏻
 

P.S. No longer available! 😧

I saw that as I was checking out and instantly when “oh god dammit”. 

Personally don't need this reissue but that's typical, right?  Not that I really fault them – I'm sure that shipping a sturdy boxset isn't dead-cheap.

Did you pull the trigger?  I suspect a lot of retailers will be getting copies of this, probably for a bit cheaper if you cared to wait.  Hopefully it's the amended 2014 press, or the same plates from them.

It's supposed to be the pressing that fixed the issues that faulted the 2014 pressing. I'm gonna hold off as I'm sure more retailers will get it. I'll probably check my local shop soon too.

I don't claim to be a Smashing Pumpkins buff, so someone can step in and correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it was the 2012 press that was janky.  The 2014 repress was supposed to fix it – I made it a point to ensure I wasn't accidentally buying a 2012 box that was just sitting around for 2 years, back in the day.

Ah yes, you're right, you're right. 2012 meh. 2014 fix.

Correct.

Theres no way that 2012 pressing has copies still floating around to retailers.

No, I wouldn’t think so.  I was just stating that I was persistent in asking about new stock vs. older stocks back in 2015 or so, to avoid accidentally grabbing a 2012 press.  By now I think anyone can probably order with confidence.
