oojavaguru Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 So I was on the fence about LCD... at $65. Now that it's an RSD item, suddenly they double the price?? (And conveniently delete the MusicDirect preorder listing.) I own all three LCD records, plus more than a few singles... AND the Blu-Ray of this show. But I won't be giving Murphy another $130. You bring up a very good point. So I reached out to Music Direct and was curious as to what they'd say. Here was their response: "This box set was announced some time ago but never released by the manufacturer. Our pricing was based on the initial release information. The manufacturer then decided to make it a Record Store Day release and increased the price. We removed this box set from our site yesterday and will relist it once it is available to non-RSD sellers. It will be sold at whatever the MSRP is at that time. Please let me know if you have any further questions." So if that isn't proof enough that Record Store Day is a fucking ca$hgrab, then there you go. Think this is going to be my last RSD. It's lost the spirit it once had and is now all about greed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 This press is so annoying already and its not even out yet. Seriously. I hope there's a larger press down the road for anyone who misses out on this. With the success of their new album, there should be zero reason that < 1,000 copies of their debut exist, across two pressings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paranoidantroyd Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Still not one thing I give a crap about. God dammit. And that's a bad thing? I don't understand why anyone would be put off by not having to stand in line for hours and overpay for records. Capitalism has taken over RSD. tape, Derek™ and deletedunknown 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnstiles Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I was saving change to add to my 100$ gift certificate to my local record store. After that last big update I cashed in the change and bought a pair of pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webdoggy Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Via new-vinyl.blogspot.com RUMORED RELEASE There will be a Led Zepplin release for Record Store Day this year, I am just awaiting details on what it will be. Excited about a Zeppelin release, but not that it is RSD. Only thing I can come up with that would make sense is BBC Sessions...Which is the only thing I don't have.

Can someone tell me...do most of these releases show up online? The high-demand releases will start popping up on eBay right on RSD, as flippers try to capitalize on the feeding frenzy and the fear that these records will vanish after this one day. Then, a couple weeks or months later -- as long as it's not a super limited edition -- you should be able to find what you're looking for at more reasonable prices. That's been my experience with RSD anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewNstuff Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Would anyone want to maybe help each other out? I'm not sure how many of you here have done it before, but on some other forums and Reddit, if someone was specifically looking for something on RSD but weren't sure if their local store would get it they'd ask for anyone who's willing to be on the lookout, shoot them a quick text to confirm that they did not pick it up themselves, and if so do the good deed of picking it up and mailing it to them. Of course the other person paid for shipping cost and if they felt like it, throw them a little something extra.Now the people who did this were specifically people who wanted the records personally, to listen to, have etc. Not flippers. Of course it's hard to gauge what anyone will do over the internet, but to go through all of that trouble to just turn it around to make a quick buck is absurd.Anyways, I'd be happy to be on the lookout for anyone who has specific request when the time draws closer. As for me personally I really want the Surfer Blood - Python Demos, as I'm hoping it will be better than the actual label release. If anyone would like to help me out when the day comes that'd be great. There may be one or two more, but that's the only thing on my list. Let me know if anyone else wants to participate.
