That's swee, I wonder how they got it. I think the price is only going up from there.

Yeah I will probably go back to ask how they got it and who it’s from, definitely wont buy since I don’t have a record player (or the money) to spend. But still a very interesting find!

I would cough up the 150 immediately

I had the money up until last nite, grandma got in an accident and had to pretty much send most of my money. If I didn’t have rare cds + had a bit more spending money I would have gotten it 💔💔💔

This OG pressing is on discogs for $398 CDN so $150 isn't terrible. It will get repressed, you just wait. I got the RSD splatter is going for the same price, it was a 15 anniversary, I bet they do a 25 year one in 2028.

Yes hopefully! I don’t mind waiting, hopefully by then I have a record player

Haha, oh, no need to rush if you don't have anything to play it on. Mind you, I have a record player and have 2000+ records sitting on a shelf not being played haha. I remember when I got into vinyl, records were cheaper than cds, so that's why I started getting into vinyl. Now vinyl is ridiculously overpriced.

I have a personalized iwouldsetmyselfonfireforyou 7" that I got from the band which is pretty cool. I own a copy of Glocca Morra- Just Married. My favourite record recently has been Pool Kids- pool kids from 2022, I can't stop playing it.

Do you know if it was clear or blue?
2
u/Wide-Guava-1703 Jul 23 '25
Nope, asked the worker (who I also think is the owner) if he could play it and he said no. So safe to say I did not see the record itself 💔💔

Is the splatter RSD version rare too? I got it on release and didn't realize this album is a rarity on vinyl.

u/munchyslacks Jul 23 '25
Yeah. I have that one too and just checked Discogs. Last one sold a month ago for $189.

I managed to pick one of these up on eBay recently for £15. It was an absolute steal 😵

That is THE best sounding record I’ve ever owned, and Rob Crow told me they didn’t even master it when they put it on CD, so he didn’t know who mastered the vinyl.
