Bandbox: an uncompensated review of an interesting new club

Has any intl here joined the club?
I can prepay for the year but it says shipping NA/ free. Is shipping paid monthly afterwards?
 
I couldn't resist either. 16 albums for $120 and recent pressings I've gotten have been very good. Plus customer service is the tops which makes up for anything that might be lacking (like some variety, but more good stuff keeps coming!).
I was always hesitant to try this because I wasn’t sold on the variety of choices but with this deal it seems stupid not to join. So in for 12
 
@Russ I i will join the chorus of people who like bandbox. I signed up for the year as well with this discount. It’s kind of a no-brainer. They have some nice exclusives, CS is nice and responsive.

They don’t ALWAYS have records I’m interested in (I’ve gotten all the previous exclusives that interest me until this point). But everything I’ve gotten has been a good pressing and they have introduced me to a bunch of new artists.

Even if I don’t want to pick up the exclusives, for $10 a month there are non-exclusives I’d add and it’s a solid price.

Yeah when you factor the 4 free LP loyalty rewards, you are ending up with 16 LP's at $7.50 each. Get the ones you want, and if none you want then these make great gifts or local record store credit stock

Good question, kind of defeats the purpose of prepaid but $20 USD per shipment (per FAQ) kind of kills the deal for me anyways. Oh well.

So then it's $30 per if you do the year and only get one a month (adding more would bring the average cost down), plus you get the 4 free records that you could add to a shipment which would bring the average down too. I don't know what international subs at other places are, but it still doesn't seem like a bad price/deal to me. If I was still living in South America that would be a killer deal given how expensive things like records were in the countries I lived in. I know Europe and Canada have better local options, but I bet this deal with that shipping cost still smokes for folks in some countries.
