Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

Before taking the plunge on anthologies, I price them out with what I can find on Discogs. Here is mine for Cadet that I did this week:

Tell Mama (Mono) - $52 ($25 for stereo)
Afro Harping - $56 for VG or $80+ for a decent copy
The Peace Maker - $33
Electric Mudd - $25 (already have)
Mother Nature's Son - $21 for VG $30+ for a decent copy
Shades of Brown - $110 🤯
Hey, Love - $25
Occasional Rain - $74
Total: At least $344 (took Electric Mudd out because I have it and did stereo Tell Mama). More like $429 if everything is in there + whatever you value the box and extras at.

You don't have the Cadet sticker. This alone is worth the difference :p
 
So if I want to use a 40% off code to get an Anthology, I have to do it soon because these are "Black Friday" codes, correct? And if I'm taking that plunge, it probably makes sense to re-join so I get member pricing too. Problem is, I wanted to wait until next month to re-join so that I could get Ode To Billie Joe and Acid as part of my 8 freebies. The math is killing me.

Code is valid until Cyber Monday. You can always DM customer service and ask how to sort it out.

Code is good through Cyber Monday so you have about a few days. Unsure of Acid or Ode even being in freebies next month

I was more interested in the Cadet box than Impulse, but I did end up ordering Impulse with the code. I can always cancel if I want it. I think that will stick around longer due to a few of those titles getting recent reissues.

Is the Impulse anthology using the same plates as the Third Man crap?
 
By the way. I could not use both discount code and store credits at the same time. So as suggested, I sent an email right after I placed my orders and less than one hour after, I have already been refunded.
I can complain about a lot of things about VMP but hat off to their CS people.

Yeah I appreciate what they were going for by including Shades of Brown, but in the end it’s probably my least spun record in the box. Everything else in the box more than makes up for it.

Yeahhhhh I just streamed all of the albums before ordering the set and really wish Shades of Brown wasn’t there. I’m hoping the sound on the vinyl is so good that it makes it worth listening to, but based on comments here I am guessing that isn’t the case. The rest of the albums are fantastic though.
 
Just got Busta Rhymes The Coming on the table and man I didn't realize it was the full deluxe package on this one. I was expecting thin board single pocket jacket like a lot of the store exclusives but this is like the full ROTM treatment. Thick stock gatefold with the foil printing etc. Absolutely killer design on the vinyl, poly sleeves. The hell?

You could join for one month with one of those titles, add another track for the other, buy the Anthology, and be back out in 10 days. 😂

Or, if you really want a freebie, join for 3 months (starting with one of the two titles), then swap for the other next month. You can use a referral code and essentially get 4 albums for $108.
