llamason56 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 i thought hot topic didn't do preorders? making an acception? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 i thought hot topic didn't do preorders? making an acception? I dont think its going to be the norm but if a label gives a completely exclusive release and wants to run a pre-order Ill do it for them. We did it Four Year Strong and The Devil Wears Prada LPs recently, its not the first time we've done a vinyl pre-order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runforcover Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 i thought hot topic didn't do preorders? making an acception? He just said why they were doing it, obviously the answer is yes, they are making an exception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundboard Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 $21.99 is steep in pricing. Why is it more expensive than some of the other double LP pressings that have been released through Hot Topic lately? Blink and both Thrices were only $19.99. 180 grams? Just curious. I may order this taking my time considering the price though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may order this taking my time considering the price though. Different labels, different distros, different bands get different royalty rates, there's a lot of things that factor into the price. None of them really have anything to do with the others except that they're exclusive to Hot Topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man I really hope as vinyl becomes more and more popular with a mainstream audience we don't see more price hikes. This is a great album and I'm sure it will turn out looking great (I'll probably end up getting it). It's crazy to think that all the stuff you discussed above would cause this to cost more than a Blink 182 or Thrice album considering they were nowhere near as popular as either of those groups and the type of labels those albums were originally released on.

Its more about what label/distro is releasing the album and at this point Ferret doesnt really exist anymore, its just all run by WEA who is generally really expensive. Vinyl has gotten insanely popular over the last 5 years or so and seems to just get more and more popular every year. The thing with major labels though is that they have noticed this and have increased the price of vinyl. They figure the more popular it is the more they can charge for it.

tkprtyrhd Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Hopefully it hangs around while my group buy people get back to me on whether they're interested or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefchino Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Did making it such a cool color impact the price a lot? I loved the way Thursday looked with that swirl and if it means a couple extra bucks to make it rad looking I think it's completely worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam19 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Ordered this morning along with two other records and just got a shipping notification for the two other records. I figured they would hold them and ship together to save the money. Anyone else have this happen to them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
