I like that variant, but damn, that price. You can import the orange variant from juno for cheaper than the member price.

Edit: sorry, for some reason it is charging me $4 more for shipping than another album, so if you don't order anything else, it is about the same price shipped.

Sweet, I guessed this was going to get a VMP release.

Not the cheapest but around the same price as the orange is going for with shipping around here in the UK. Black pressing is significantly cheaper.

Hopefully this will be like last year's Shabaka and the Ancestors exclusive and stick around for a while before making it to swaps because sheesh at that price.

They’re gutting the flippers, so like... cool I guess. If a release on wax is something you were gonna spend $33 on to enjoy (not to flip) then you’ll probably be OK paying $43 on it too.

Did that ever make it to swaps? I know they held out for a long time. I lucked out and they gave it to me as an apology for forgetting to ever send me my rotm.

Man that VAT kills you guys. Weird that I can get it cheaper from the UK than you.

It's completely mad. This isn't the best example because I imagine there are a few sites/shops that have it cheaper with shipping, but the average is about the same from what I have seen.

The majority of VMP releases come out at cheaper than here in the UK (free shipping helps), it really is messed up.
 
Considering Verve pressings tend to be garbage, and both Shabaka And The Ancestors and Sons Of Kemet last album were horribly pressed, as much as I want this album there's no way I'm paying that much for it, especially from a pretty much unknown pressing plant whose reviews on Discogs are not exactly good.

The upward creep continues. $38... $40... $42

Maybe they're basing prices on what third party flippers are getting.

People keep posting the links to the reddit vinyl releases sub and with the more popular releases FOMO kicks in and drives the sales up. It's not just about members now, these are being released into the wild for people with the money to snag. I'm at the point where I'm going to see what comes up in the April represses and then bounce when my sub ends. These store drops are too damn much.

Any details on the pressing info for the standard and orange versions that I may have missed?

Hang on, is Electric Mastering the same as the Electric Recording Company?

Edit: It is. These are the guys that sell records for £300+. Their 7lp Mozart set retailed at £2,500 and sold out...madness
