dapeebs Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 So I ended up picking up a copy of the green variant at one of my hometowns record shops just the other day. There was still another copy available which my buddy picked up. I would find it hard to believe that this could be a bootleg. I purchased it at Hastings (reputable store), which is basically like a Barnes and noble/gamestop/movie rental place rolled into one, But for some reason I cannot find ANY pressing information on this variant anywhere online. I mean hey, I could be wrong? Still psyched I came up on it though, and only for $30, haha.I'm hoping it's not. I tweeted at Sumerian to see if they have any info on it. Waiting for a response. And my record store had no way of ordering a green. Only blue and red showed up. Hoping for some solid info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David The Gnome Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Unannounced randomly inserted maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanellos Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 The same guy has listed two more. He just sold two for both over a hundred a piece. He says theyre sealed so I doubt this is a random variant insert. Im really curious now. I'm hoping it's not. I tweeted at Sumerian to see if they have any info on it. Might want to try emailing them too. I doubt they'd respond to a tweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering its got a download code I dont see these odd ones being boots. Maybe Sumerian Records is doing a Willy Wonka thing here or something.

They need to step their game up. They handle anything involving vinyl AWFULLY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpkin Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 The green is a GoHastings exclusive. As much as I hate to order from them for the way they package, i'm gonna take my chances. http://www.gohastings.com/product/POPMUSIC/Joy-Of-Motion-Hastings-Exclusive-Green-2LP/sku/295108417.uts#.VBsoTPldV8E Fridge Fox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might take my chances too. I love how the release date says August 12th, 2014. So I guess Sumerian did a repress and didnt tell anyone? Thats fantastic. As for the translucent orange: I messaged the guy and he said, to quote: My buddy works the lighting for one of the event center's out here in Cali. He got his hands on them and sold me three.

Kurazz Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Now I'm really feeling sorry for the bastards who shelled out $150 for the album. I was almost one of them. Still waiting for the concert in November to pick up my copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimpkin Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I just got shipment confirmation. Something is coming in the mail. I'll post again when it arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gippej Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I have personally never had an issue with gohastings shipping. They have always arrived in record mailers, just like every other store I have ever ordered from. But that price though, seems a bit high so I am hesitant.

Gippej Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Oddly enough, right after I stick up for their shipping methods they just sent me a record in a big box. Luckily there was cutouts inside the box that held it in place so no damage done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gippej Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Gohastings raised the price to 119 dollars now! hahaha Lol wtf. I had no idea this album was so expensive on vinyl, even the first red/blue pressings are expensive on ebay. Glad somebody posted the hastings link, great album.

Kanellos Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Gohastings raised the price to 119 dollars now! hahaha Hahahah! I didnt believe you at first until I checked. Thats incredible and sad at the same time. Im glad I ordered one, should have gotten two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpkin Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I just checked and it's $99. I'm dumbfounded that they raised there own exclusive to match ebay prices. Seems crazy, couldn't they just press more? I'm a little skeptical about the whole thing. The listing has no photo or information. My tracking says it should arrive Thursday. I'll let you know what I get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

najerarick88 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I have another copy of the Green variant I'm trying to sell. If anyone wants it, let me know! I'm not asking for the $100+ prices they're going for, but something around the average price they're selling for right now would be great. I could possibly get another one within a week or so, maaaybe. Let me know! Give me some offers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
