patthickey Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Didn't see anybody else post about it so I will: Julia Brown's first 7" went live at 1 today. Won't ship for a few weeks, but yeah. 100 Gold 400 Baby Pink Buy it here Listen to it here //INB4 price complaints: From Birdtapes tumblr: Question : Price for the Julia Brown 7"? ((This was asked before it was posted)) Answer: "This hasn’t been announced yet because we were debating it for a while. It was going to be $10, and I know that probably sounds expensive for a 7”, we even got backlash for charging $8.50 for holo pleasures. We spent money to record this 7” in a studio, and while most labels make that money back through digital sales (at no cost) we don’t. Really we need to be incorporating studio costs and other expenses into our vinyl sales because that’s all we sell. We also put a lot of effort into this release, and the packaging is gorgeous (and costly) so I hope people appreciate it. All that said, we’re going to stick with the $8.50 for now because I think it’s definitely a fair price but we’re not making any profit. I’m excited for everyone to get this record, and I’m grateful for everyone who has supported us up to this point and made it possible - thank you <3" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parkinglot Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Just picked up a gold one. $22 shipped to Canada so if I'm not refunded shipping (I'm assuming I will be) I'm going to regret this decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwhitmuzik Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 shameless. hated the price but I love these guys (and girl). Would have supported because I like torts and Library's a cool song but I just can't justify the price for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know it sucks. I can kind of understand their defense though, they arn't charging for the digital. And the Elvis Depressedly release was v nice. who knows man.

birdtapes Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Thanks for posting this pat! We know people are mad our 7"s aren't $5 but we definitely can't sell them at that price, maybe when we have a bigger audience and can press larger quantities. You can name your price on our store or the band's bandcamp, buy the digital version from itunes and amazon if you want, or stream it on spotify and rdio Music is free, we hope you value our physical releases because we do try to make them special Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I know it's not $13 to ship a 7" to canada. I also know its probably not your fault, the store just automates the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parkinglot Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 got this today. its warped as shit and sounds terrible and they charged me $13 to ship it to canada and didn't refund anything, and it was an $8 7" to begin with. cool. slightly unimpressed to say the least.

cwhitmuzik Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I'll only buy this if torts has an extra copy at his place. Not paying shipping for this at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dedlee Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I got mine a couple days ago and it's fine. hit up Tyler at [email protected], he's pretty good at sorting things out. how good does that gold foil look though? and the gold vinyl looks great.. not bright yellow like most gold but translucent enough to make it look miles better than the metallic gold that Topshelf and Deathwish tried doing. I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
