I'm confused about the limited aspect you mentioned earlier though about there not being a repress...the RSD version and the one without hype sticker have the same plates, deadwax info, etc.
Neil Young

- Start date

I swear it was 30 so maybe 15 with and 15 without.

Neil said it was only getting pressed once.

Okay, well mine doesn't have the Record Store Day sticker or the art print, so there are at least two 'versions,' though it still could be that they're the same pressing.

Oh I'm almost certain they would be the same pressing

One of my locals still has at least one copy so I might have to break my diet and do a curbside pick-up tomorrow.

I’ll see if I can find the announcement stuff on NYA.

Interesting. I was under the impression that they had pressed a bunch with the RSD sticker hype sticker, then decided not to wait for RSD, to up the pressing to 15,000 and release it earlier.
The press release on superdeluxeedition said that it would be out on CD and vinyl.

My bad! I thought there was only the one pressing. On discogs there are two separate entries but both have the same exact credits and dead wax. I feel like they added more copies once it became not a RSD release and maybe the extra copies were rush pressed without the extra stickers + art? I could have sworn it was 7,500 copies originally but RSD has taken down the original list it seems.
I have both versions and they appear to be exactly the same aside from the rsd hype sticker and the art print inside. I got the rsd versions from my local, which was warped and off centre. I am in the process of laundering that through amazon and the copy they sent is the standard edition.

Best, I can tell, there were 15,000 pressed in the US and 1,500 pressed in the UK. It seems a lot of record stores have been told that they will be receiving their last deliveries of the album soon if they have not already.
It seems like discogs also has some affordable copies of it...there's a US version for $33 total. I think mine was $30 from BullMoose?

Ah, goddammit, I caved and broke my diet. And also picked up the new Dylan, because I might as well and I have no willpower.

I feel your pain, man. Obviously, you're in the right place!

Good news, is they are both fantastic pressings, so money well spent.

I'm glad to hear that. Trying to focus only on good pressings and great records these days. Been listening to both of them a tonne since last month so I'm already confident about the latter.

If anyone is still looking for a copy of Homegrown, you can get it for $14.50 on bandbox with the code "KRISTINE" (50% off the normal price). There are also a half dozen other Neil Young records to choose from, and a bunch of other bands.
Here's my referral link:
bandbox-5ce9aba4dd9ed.subbly.me
It also comes with a 16 page book about Neil Young, and I've read that sometimes they throw in an extra free LP for new members (don't quote me on that, can't remember where I read it).

With no desire to explore that website beyond the home page, I'm going to call bull on your post. It's a subscription site and there's no suggestion of Neil Young as far as I can see. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I dont subscribe to it, but BandBox did recently feature Neil Young. They are a subscription site centered around a particular artist each month.

Uh, yeah, it's there, along with Hitchhiker, On The Beach, Reactor, etc. Click the subscribe button, and you'll see the list you can choose from.
It is a subscription service, but you can cancel or pause the subscription after the first shipment. The site's been around for probably a year at least, and people have been posing about it on Reddit for a while.
