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

Yes, I've seen that singles collection. In general, I dislike the singles collections. I used to have 36 chambers as a novelty like that but I long ago unloaded it.

The link I shared is not the singles collection. It's the box with the full 2LP album + the instrumental album.

Oh shit, yeah, I thought it was the singles collection that also included the fake swords and stuff

How much would you be willing to part with it for?

I haven't thought about it yet. It's a maybe. I'm currently going through and listening to dupes and making sure I'm satisfied with what I keep. I am running out of shelf space on a 4x4 and 5x5 Kallax. I'm not going to relisten to the box because I remember it being really good. I'm gonna relisten through the 20th standard and make sure I'm satisfied. 'Cause that box set is space hungry and, while the instrumental album is nice, it isn't necessary for me. But honestly, it may be a bit as I'm going alphabetically through stuff and just begun.

If I do get rid of it, would $120 + free shipping work? That's below the lowest on Discogs. I checked my archives and I paid $90 for it in 2017. I have a Discogs store and would honestly list it for ~$220, but N&G fam gets deals.

Again, I don't know if I'm parting with it but I am leaning that way. If you think you'd like it, let me know and I'll DM you when I make the decision. If you want it, cool; if not, no worries and it will go up on my Discogs.

It should be NM/NM. I have it in a box set outer poly and the records inside in polys (+ RCM cleaning). I haven't spun it in a while but I can take a look at it to make sure I'm not misremembering that there is something wrong with it.

Yeah. My order is SUPPOSED to ship on the 21st, so if you decide around then and it hasn't shipped I may be interested in taking it off your hands. Also moving back to the city so my wife may veto it. Circle back when you've decided.

Oh, what version do you have an order in for? I know there was a string of conversation before I jumped in and the answer is probably there...but indulge my laziness.

Standard black version. Not much details on the listing tbh, I just know I want it and ended up paying $70 CAD for the chance to get it. It's Amazon so I can easily cancel if the seller is full of shit, that's all I know.
 
I have both the Marvel variant and the standard black pressing at home. Definitely don't need dupes. I haven't listened to the Marvel version yet however. The rest of this week is bad for me, but next week I can and will spin both and assuming the Marvel version sounds in line with the black one I'd gladly part with the black one. I see what it's going for on Discogs, but I'd gladly part with it for far less than that for N&G family. I need to verify which version I truly have, but I'm almost positive it's the Respect the Classics 20th Anniversary repressing. I've spun it maybe twice. I'm also up to explore a trade of some sort.

Also, hit me up.
Might be an easier sell than the box set. It's now my most wanted record.

The lesson here is if you want a specific album, never assume it's always going to be in stock and treat yo self.
It went from being everywhere to being absolutely no where and insanely priced for a NM/VG+ copy.

This whole conversation has given me some regrets for sure!

The Marvel copy does sound quite nice.

I have that regret with the VMP version of Mobb Deep: The Infamous. Missed the VMP sale since it sold out so quickly and balked at paying $50-$60 in on discogs and now it's absurd.

It was a nightmare just getting it the first time, if it's any consolation. That was when people were randomly getting orders canceled/refunded while others were receiving boxes with dozens of copies of Mobb Deep in them. Definitely the beginning of the end of VMP for me, at least.

I was honestly going to pay $80+tax for a copy of Broken Social Scene S/T because I've been burned a few times until thankfully my local managed to track down a few copies for $40.

Yeesh! Yeah I have a tough time paying double (or triple) the retail for things that will likely get repressed or reissued. There have been a few, where I feel like they are very unlikely to get repressed (The Brightblack Morning Light self-titled album for example) that I have paid extra but mostly I would just assume if I wait around long enough some sort of repress or reissue will come through. And if not, well, I’ve made it this long not owning it n vinyl, maybe it’s not meant to be. As hard as I try, I am never gonna own everything.

S/T is one of my favourite Indie albums from that period (I prefer it over YFIIP), and this store near me had a copy on display that was tempting me. I know TTL ran it awhile back but with shipping it would've probably been around the same. Luckily I had some restraint because I would've been kicking myself a month later when it came in at half the price.

It's OOP so I'm not sure how they managed to do it.

Yeah, that makes sense. You’d Think Arts & Crafts would do a better job of keeping some of their most popular albums in print. Especially in Canada. I recently paid $50 for Jason Collett’s Idols Of Exile because even though it goes for cheap (when it is available at all) overseas I never see US listing and I don’t know it it was ever a popular enough title that you would have TTL or VMP spurring on reissues.

Can I be 2nd in line if @bdrummond passes on it?
