I appreciate the link but that would be at least $40 shipped to the US if my math is correct 😕 I do see that there's some listings for this on Discogs so maybe that will end up being where I go. This isn't something I absolutely *need* this very moment but if there was another reissue that was coming i could get for cheaper than I would have wanted to know, if this is just VMP getting a color of it I assume it's just a repress of that 2018 release and I can try and find that for a decent price. Thanks for the info!

The box is expensive though, 100%! I'm just glad it got the special treatment and that Ryan Smith mastered it! I like the inclusion of the extra disc actually, as it was like a Japanese release, dance EP thing that came out the year after Whitney Houston!

$70 is really expensive, but worth for me and I guess for a lot of others if it's been selling so well

Has it been selling well though? I guess there's no pressing number on it but I feel like it has been on pre-sale since the end of 2019 in the store. I have completely lost track of time though with everything going on so maybe it went on sale after that. I feel like it was up for sale prior to pandemic though.

EDIT: It went on sale 5 months ago according to the initial reddit post.

I guess it has been selling well if they pressed at least 1500 copies, I'm guessing they pressed 2000, and have probably less than 200 copies left! At that price, without the boxset going on sale, I'd say it's been selling really well!

Could this link be helpful? I don't know them, but they seem to be in the US and it says the record is in stock.

126 people have it on discogs. I know not everyone who buys records is on discogs but...

I also don't doubt that it sounds awesome based on Sterling being involved. But just... man...that price tag is crazy. The EP seems a bit useless unless you're a die-hard Whitney fan and the book just looks okay. It would have sold like hot cakes if it was even at $40-$45. $70 is a huge push IMO. One of the reviews on discogs is funny too:

"The book is just OK. Some pics I had never seen, but the design overall is—basic. Notably, no images of the duet partners."

hmm...VMP is saying this is the first US issue of BVSC ever...isn't that just completely false? I know at least the Classic Records pressing was US.

I thought it said since the original release? But yes it initially came out on Classic Records in the US. And this is the first vinyl release in the US since then, even though it’s been repressed a few times. Also, did Bernie Grundman actually cut new lacquers for this? I thought he was done doing analog stuff. Unless this isn’t AAA but I thought it was recorded to tape? I could be way off the mark here though.

mmmm wish they just did the the main only, with the booklet and sold it for like $50. $70 is very expensive. Luckily I can afford it though!

The booklet probably isn't anything amazing too but I know it will be really nice!
 
Had second thoughts regarding my stuff, tried to cancel Classics and keep Essentials. No dice. Now I have to contact CS just so I can keep BVSC and cancel Sahara. (Clarification is I had Classics as my main for Sahara last month, tried to cancel that but keep Essentials, but it wouldn't let me, so the only way to get rid of Sahara was to cancel both - which I do not want to do.)

First "US Vinyl Reissue"
Semantics are important in the VMP ad copy department.

I truly hate that they do the whole "US reissue" thing and make it seem like people can't possibly buy a pressing from Europe hah. It's also just false...

And if your argument is that the box shouldn't count...then the above version was on Quiex SV-P which was first used in 2002...so it's not the first US re-issue...
