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

I can't even fathom the absurdly poor business sense up and down the organization to result in a situation like this.

It's like that Simpsons episode where Bart got an elephant and homer tried price gouging elephant rides after getting the food bill.

Omg, I just watched this and this is so on point! Like legit, this is so VMP right now! 🤣

I love the “Get Off My Property” at the end of the video! It’s everything! 🤣🤣🤣

I still smell a fish, unless they’re making some shocking mistakes or are criminally overpaying for licensing I just don’t see how costs are spiralling this quickly.

I legitimately think this is the price of ending a business deal with Vinceron. It would explain this move & their refusal to address the situation, even though directly asked about it today on reddit.

who the hell decided on 7500 for a niche box set


if this was like the blue note anthology or something, yeah that makes sense, but for grateful dead that seems like hardcore overkill...

maybe they originally wanted 750 copies and they added in a 0

The Grateful Dead ain't niche. They might be the most popular band in the United States right now. The issue is that this set has too many standards for diehard Deadheads and is too pricey for being dipping their toes. For example, I had half the records in the set (and everything on CD) and I havent even tried hard to get a lot of Dead on vinyl.

It is only really a good choice if you're into high quality pressings and are like @Mather and have the budget to do it (though I hope he realizes its USD, not CAD). Its just there aren't 7500 people in that category.
