sjb2k1 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 First of all, anyone who buys this is a fool. I lost my shit in the Hum thread about ridiculous price gouging by $RC and I won't repeat it because all of my very useful information definitely fell upon deaf ears. Secondly, I am with collectivemike - we can't be too far off before all of this price gouging and "it's still cheaper than ebay" logic comes full circle and organizations like $RC will shoot themselves in the foot. By continuing this cycle and releasing these decades old re-issues eventually folks like $RC are only left with two options: 1.) Re-issue it again! By continuing to dillute the market with the same crap on different colors, it will drag down even the secondary market so far that $50 will be higher than any ebay price. 2.) Start seeking out new/current artists to promote/work with...and NO ONE is willing to pay $50 outright for a new artist. Hell, most of you reading this wouldn't shell out $10 at a show for a band that you heard for the very first time. Since this option isn't an instant cash grab, it won't happen. So yes, as Mike said, this problem will resolve itself eventually. Hopefully soon, because if this spreads into bands that I give a shit about I am going to be pissed. and give me back my fucking like button.

amnstypls Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I'll buy it. I'll listen to it a few times over the next year or so. Then I'll sell it on eBay for $100 or more. Shortly thereafter, it will get repressed again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Hey guys, remember, when you pick this up, you're setting a precedent that it's okay to pay $50 for a single LP and 3 7"s.... and this won't be the last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjglor Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 If I were to buy this... that would mean I'd have spent close to $100 trying to buy/buying this album. I'll pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 man, I wonder how many kids who didn't get refunded by RJ and are only getting $5 off from SRC shed real life tears over this tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snaggle Von Swift Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Already $44.00 into this record.. not sure if it's worth it to spend another $35 (plus shipping), or just be down the initial $44.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitty Rambo Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Would only buy the 7"s alone. SRC should just put all the bonus tracks on 1 7" or 1 10" swirly record. Lost my original receipt anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
