I mean it does seem that 5-10 years after a record is released, you can usually get at least double if it is still sealed.


I have been finding out the hard way that many of the albums I want are in the $100 range, and they're no older than 10 years :?

Just ordered two copies, that seems to be the theme with my BoC vinyl. At least two copies, that is probably very sad, but I guess it rules out having to fork out big money again for out of print copies.

yea and bleep's inflated price also makes this 24 USD with shipping included. I refuse to pay that much for an Ep, no matter how much its coveted. That's getting into a double vinyl price range. Not to mention, I'd rather not have my package cross the Atlantic.

The thing that annoys me about bleep is that they doubled the shipping even though they are going to ship the two copies I bought together. That seems a bit of a gouge to me. In any case they gave good service over the repress problems I had that I used them again.

88 if it helps, that Redeye deal throws in a CD copy too, for 12 pounds shipped to US (~$20)
link I used, at least

THanks man, I think I'm going to wait to see if a N. American distributor pops up, but I appreciate the link.

In other news, we're all aware of the remastered version of Hi Scores that skam posted to their soundcloud page, correct?

this is the slightly annoying part, but still like the vinyl was like $6 shipping, and the cd was like....... $2.50 or something.... still much cheaper than any discogs seller i've ever encountered ha..

Thank you for the tip, I really hope this isn't a scam or at least they will re-ship in case I receive a damaged copy.

Went for it, although its too bad that I couldn't combine shipping with a t-shirt since its a preorder. After the reissue fiasco I guess I'd rather spend a few extra dollars to have the peace of mind that things will be sorted out if they don't get it right the first time (unlikely they'll make that mistake again, but...)
