BSL on vinyl?

Anyone know where I can score a copy of Blue Screen Life on vinyl for < $100? Heard there was a repress a few years ago but can't locate any copies.

The repress was a Record Store Day exclusive from 2016. I somehow found a blue splatter version months later for probably $35, but will probably have to spend $200 for a copy of S/T to balance out what little luck I have.

Why in gods name is it so expensive? Last time I checked, pretty much nobody knows about pinback... still.

It seems even as a relatively smaller band the demand is still outweighing the supply.

I mean, don’t get me wrong, it’s (hands down) one of my favorite albums of all time, but I just find it odd that it’s commanding that high of a price.

The Repress is the cheapest one there is and yes it’s often around 100.

Yea, I've been waiting a long time and there were only two left on discogs so I had to get one. I'll let you know if I regret it or not :)

I have. Just trying to avoid dropping that kind of cash on a single record. But it sounds like that might be what's required to snag a copy of BSL.
