With the Canadian dollar falling & falling .. if you haven't already placed an order, I would totally do so now!

Yeah I ordered mine right before the Bank of Canada announced another rate drop.

Don't want to talk economics on here, but the US will likely increase their rate here shortly, the Canadian dollar will continue to tumble after that.

I'm very glad there is no USA / Canadian Pearl Jam tour this year because of the weak CDN dollar. It hasn't been this low since '04. This totally blows!!

$106 in cdn for one vinyl...damnit gonna bite the bullet soon i guess before she gets worst.

I ordered mine along with the two Mad Season vinyl's to spread out the shipping costs a bit. I also ordered it the day before the rate announcement. The sad part is I remember the day the cdn dollar had a pop to 84 cents and I was waiting for it to go higher.. lol.. Then I watched it keep going down. Glad I pulled the trigger last week.

Still not as bad as my worst memories. We went to the US in 2000 to catch Portland/Boise/Seattle shows. It was 1.60 for a US dollar, I think it was right at the lowpoint. It made it pretty expensive. I think the tickets were more expensive on that tour (for me) than any of the recent tours due to the FX rate. I hope we don't get back down to those levels.

Yes, it really does blow. It blows hard.

I shouldn't have waited too long to place mine, the whole world economy is going down (thank you China) so at the end of the next month, when my credit card statement arrives, the USD will be way up, more than it currently is, and btw, shipping to Buenos Aires is still 38 bucks, plus, I have to pay a 35% CC fee of those 88 for buying something online abroad due to country regulations, my country is almost bankrupt, then I have to pay import taxes and shipping and hanlding fees once it gets in my country, so if I don't bitch, anyone should...

That definitely blows. That's definitely worse than we have it in Canada (most things under $100 bucks seem to sneek through customs as long as they are send to Canada Post and not by courier). I don't think I've been charged any additional tax on any of the merch 10c has mailed me. At least I only have to worry about the poor exchange rate right now.

It is too bad that a lot of this stuff doesn't go to retail. It seems a lot cheaper and efficient to be able to buy stuff domestically (whether from local amazon or your local stores).

So, I received my vault 4 by the end of february, here's a pic with comments about the currency rates at the time, so I must have payed around 130 USD total, I guess, since the currency rate in september was different from the one in february...

javis el errante

I just wanted to comment on the forthcoming vault #4 release since, even though I saw the setlist before, it just dawned on my that whipping, one of my all time favs from my fav album, is played in that show, which was a year before vitalogy was released, any other vitalogy song which was played before? (hint; slim cafe)

lolobugg

Better man and Satan's Bed were played in Atlanta 1994. The same show that was broadcast on the radio. Whipping might have been played too.

dankind

Orpheum 1994: "Immortality" (with early alternate lyrics), "Not for You," "Better Man" and "Tremor Christ" -- all of these were played a bit before Vitalogy's release, I think.

chad1218

I love the version of immortality u speak of Dan. It's great

Jammalambo

Pretty much all of Vitalogy has been played way before its release..

demetrios

7 day's left to place that pre order.

jjflash

Finally placed an order. Sept 9th seemed light years away when 10C first posted the sale. Six days to go.

demetrios

3 day's left to place an order.

javis el errante

The fay after tomorrow, but at what time? IMO, they might extend it a couple of dais

cp3iverson

Vault's 3 and 4 were a better deal. This is only a 2LP set. Im still buying it to be a completist but i do think it should be $40 and not $50.

Agreed. Kind of a rip.

Because 4 months just wasn't enough time. It would be great if they did this pre-order for 4 years, so that way we would really be happy when it finally arrived.

I'm out. The value isn't there for me this time around. I'm surprised I'm feeling this way since I have everything they've released besides Benaroya but over $60 after shipping is too much for this and I have to draw the line somewhere. Anyone else sitting this one out?

Yeah, I'm the same - it's expensive, and the tracklist isn't really blowing me away. Might change my mind later today though!

I would say the same, but I've already decided that I'm going to be a Vault vinyl series completist, so there really isn't anything I can do.

lolobugg

I thought it was a pretty decent setlist for a Vs. era show. def would've preferred a 1995/1996
