itsgoodtobefree Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Edit: Contrary to what I originally thought, they actually didn't do any of their reissues, but they still have the worst prices. That's because they're imports. jaba1337 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Mobile Fidelity was charging $30 an album before most of these punk-ass labels got in the expensive records game, and generally the result is worth it. Remastered with care from the original tapes, pressed at RTI, thick vinyl, bulletproof sleeve. They really go for an archival-worthy product, It's not for everyone, but I think it's worth it for albums of great personal import. I have the MoFi Blue Album, and it's worth every penny just to be able to really crank that long buildup in Only In Dreams and feel like I'm in the control room. There was a dude on Amazon that I bought the MoFi Pinkerton reissue from EBReggae or some shit, I think it was like...$27 shipped or something, anyway, It came with a $12 dollar coupon to get something else from his non-amazon store which was awesome. That doesn't really have anything to do with anything besides the fact that sometimes that dude has decent prices on stuff and you guys should check him out. BUT I have the MoFi Pinkerton and Blue album and I'd agree, they're definitely worth the price tag. They sound incredible and are packaged incredible! So much so that I seriously considered getting the MoFi Green Album until I remembered that it's only 28-minutes long, still costs $30 or whatever, and then listened to it and realized I only actually liked something like 10-minutes of it.

fuckinandsuckinandtouchin Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 in need of more records, having a tough time finding good ones :{ How about Exene Cervenka? I picked up both for $13 total which is cheap! That Forgetters ep is pretty good too and it's a double 7".. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aych Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I really only found one thing that I actually wanted (Sleigh Bells - Treats, it was just under $11 or $12) but I slept on it for a night and by the time I pulled my cart back up, it was out of stock. Oh well. I'll get it some other time down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

distinctlydustin Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Ordered At the Drive-In's first two LPs. Should be here by Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Neither of my first two orders have shipped, but my third one (the biggest one) shipped yesterday. It was 8 albums (two of which were double LPs, another of which was 180g), and FedEx says the package weighs 7.3 lbs, so I'm guessing I didn't get everything. (All three of my CC charges are still listed as "pending" on my statement so I don't know what they actually charged me for yet.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just a normal guy kevin Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Did you look up the orders on the site? They usually do a good job of noting what items are backordered in the item breakdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradedOnACurve Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Neither of my orders (July 5th and July 7th) shipped yet. Only 2 or 3 items out of 12 I ordered between them are listed as in stock. I hope that what Mark said is true and the counters are right and that the orders are fulfilled in order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twistedshabazz Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 It seemsthey arent doing things in order still. Ordered stuff on july 5th, all of the stuff had more than enough in stock, all more than 5 left. Still CC is pending but for a significantly less total than original order. Also people are saying orders placed after are being already sent out. Seems they did not learn from first time when this happene and people were up in arms calling them.

deletedunknown Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Got my order today. Of all things, I didn't get Mountain Goats. Wonder when they'll start processing refunds. Ended up with: Om - Live in Jerusalem Owls Tortoise - Millions Now Living Will Never Die Warsaw Can't complain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
