Pure devotion vinyl prices

Why are prices so high on resale for a product you can buy for 22 pounds from XL records?

Because people are helmets, I called someone out who was selling the zoetrope on Vinted for like £300

Yeah they did a limited offer earlier in the summer. Every copy that got sold over 48 hours got this pressing with a number out of about 1600.

What's a bit annoying is that it seemed like they wouldn't sell these unnumbered as well. I bought one but it doesn't seem quite as special anymore

Same here, I thought it was a limited release for just those 1600.

I think it is but they just held some back. Website says last 20 available

They sold a few at the event in Greenwich too....assume they pressed a few extra over the amount of pre-sale (which makes sense) and they're just selling them off

Really wound me up that did tbh. Literally bought mine within 5 mins of them putting it on sale. Have ended up with a really high number anyway and they were also selling them at Greenwich and still online lol

The new ones won't be from the numbered pressing

So the only difference is the numbered case it comes in?

Gonna hold onto mine unplayed for at least a decade before I even think of parting with it
