Anyone have an extra? Obviously sealed would be ideal, but I'd be happy with one that is in good condition. The vinyl needs to sound perfect; I don't mind some normal wear to the jacket and sleeve. Thanks! :)

    i guess I'll bump.... looks like I should start really considering other sources though.

    Quite a few on ebay for around $20 or so.

    Thank you. :) But that is the reissue 2LP one. I am looking for an original pressing because it's a single LP, which I prefer. There is one original on eBay, but it seems too steep to me... might have to fold sometime, but if anyone has a used one that's in great playing condition, hopefully I can get a better price. :)

    Ahh, yeah I guess most of them are the re-issue. I'm with you on the 1 disc thing; flipping over every 3 songs is a pain in the ass.
    I did see one original for $17 but the guy lists shipping as $4 then says in the description that it's $10 not $4. Kinda lame.

    That's still cheap! I don't suppose you could post a link for it? Because I didn't see that. Would beuch appreciated!

    PM sent.
    Thank you HesCalledDyer! Your tip lead to me getting this album! :D Much appreciated.

    Also, :fp: The seller hadn't listed the item as an original pressing anywhere, so I sent him a message to confirm that it was the original pressing, and he replied saying "Oh yeah! So it is! I didn't even realize that!" and then he increased the price by $7. :lol: :fp: Still a good deal though - dinged up jacket, but it's never been played.

    I have a single LP reissue I bought when I first got into into last year. It was like $18 or so... I will have to check which version it is as idk they had a double LP reissue.

    Hey! Thank you for this offer!! I actually found one on ebay quite a while ago.... and it's awesome. :) If you don't want to keep yours, I doubt you'll have too much trouble getting rid of it. I think there are plenty of people out there who don't want the repress because it's on 2 LPs. Not everyone likes that. I know I don't! :)

    There is a repress on one slab. I have it.

    Cool. I guess it's just the most recent one that is on 2 LP. Whichever - I just wanted it on 1 LP and I found it a while ago for something like $24. :)

    I don't really know a lot about identifying original Radiohead LPs, check the matrix. In UK stores i have seen The Bends over and over. Never really noticed the early stuff being out of print which suggests they were pressed over and over.

    I don't think there are THAT many single LP versions for sale out there, just because almost every one on eBay while I was looking for it was the most recent 2LP issue, same with discogs. I don't think many people get rid of their "The Bends" album - it's too good! :D But yeah, there have been a few reissues over the years.
