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

Lol, oh VMP. Stock thing did the same for The National too. Still useful for if you’re on the fence and it’s the nudge you need but they’re definitely able to pump the numbers. Perhaps more useful for the smaller hundreds runs.
 
So Sparklehorse box set proves that VMP can make a box and sell it under $200. I wonder where all that extra cost comes from for the anthologies?
It's a 4 album box set for $189. I could be wrong but all the Anthologies had way more than 4 albums in them and the cost per album on this one is even higher than the Anthologies (my math could be wrong on that though). And the Dead one is definitely a mix of licensing fees as @KenKaniff said and trying to prey on Dead fans with deep wallets.
 
That Glands box is pretty much the best thing ever. I was able to find a copy on Discogs that had bent corners on the box and sleeves but vinyl was M for around $90/shipped last year.

$50/LP is honestly too much for the Sparklehorse set, but I'm still buying it.
Funny story about The Glands, I kept holding off and it eventually sold out and then there was a reasonable priced copy on on Amazon and I didn’t pull the trigger and it eventually sold out. Then last week I was on the New West website due to there store sale and Lo and behold...
I swear it was sold out so I don’t know if they found more copies or if they repressed or if this is an error (No shipping notification yet) but I finally purchased a copy.

I bought this from NuWest last week as well, what a great set.

is the discount code still active at VMP?

Never heard of these guys but I'm really digging what I'm hearing so far!

Nope--VMP code stopped working end of July. I don't doubt there will be another one though at some point give all the screw ups...

Glands and Sparklehorse I both really love, but damn I can't pull the trigger. Been buying too much. I need to do that drinking/buying plan one night.

It was definitely sold out/OOP when I tracked down my copy. I see new/sealed copies on Discogs now, so maybe a repress?
