Record Store Day 2024

Was hoping they would have death cab. Damn that one’s been hell to find!

They had a lot in stock but being as they’re a Seattle band I think that was a popular title.

Bellingham would like a word with you

I just figured someone would have it in stock online but haven’t seen it at a single place today.

Semantics. I bet at this point they’ve been living in Seattle longer than they were based in Bellingham.

@OMC i got this if you need it.

everything else was long gone. sorry, team.

DM sent.

Kinda shocked Fleet Foxes is so hard to find. If I thought anything was going to stick around, i thought it would be that

Like I said last week. The ven diagram of fleet foxes fans and vinyl collectors is close to a perfect circle.

I remember getting Fleet Foxes Electric Lady Sessions in RSD BF 2017 and there wasn't much fuss about that. Thought it'd be the same this go round

Bremerton is giving you the side eye.

$36 for 3Lp? Best deal on rsd!

I think it was $40 something at mine

I saw a bunch of great punk rock shows in Bremerton back in the 80s.

Typical Se-Tac elite response, denying small town Washington their due

Oh man I wish this had the b-side "Grey Skies" but that was released around their second album so this compilation wouldn't have it unfortunately.

Hopefully they mght do another mop up b sides album for the rest of the catalogue- there’s some gold tucked away on my cd singles!

 

[HayesWeighsIn]

Yeah, The Wilco was twice that. Nicer packaging but twice the price.

This actually lead me to pass. I get it, production costs have gone up, but sheesh. Smashed Plastic are great, but for this I expect RTI plating and pressing w/ tip on.

Gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised that for the most part, the "flipping" days of RSD seem to be over. Seems like nothing is fetching more than like $20 over retail on discogs, ebay, etc. Maybe a few exceptions but hopefully RSD returns to something for collectors.

Tesla / Bowie

Like I said, some exceptions, but you'd usually see stuff go up on discogs immediately and sell for 2x what it was listed for. Even for high demand stuff like the Evans mono, the average prices are pretty close to retail.

Eh, there's a bunch that are still reseller heaven right now. I'm tracking Laufey (4x) and Gandalf (2x). Fleet Foxes, Young Thug, David Byrne/Paramore, South Park, Rodrigo/Kahan, Chappell Roan, Maisie Peters, Death Cab, Sabrina Carpenter, Remi Wolf are all selling well above retail.

Though I think your larger point is still valid - most of those are because the record was just underpressed to demand, not that people are successfully re-selling items that are readily available. I also think that some of those will be repressed for general consumption.

 

[Crabbers]

Is anyone still looking for anything? Bout to head to my local

Agree. Seems like the pressing #s were pretty low on a # of titles overall. In truth, my main problem is lack of access to a large store with large RSD stock combined with a general dislike for crowded shopping experiences. .
