Was anyone lucky scoring one over @ http://therecordexchange.net/Item/9007405528 .

I still haven't received ANYTHING from them after getting that order confirmation!!

Has your cc been charged?

I don't think it has...
I've been checking my balance everyday,
and haven't seen a charge for the amount of the purchase!!

Not charged? Then the order will be cancelled. D'oh!!

You think they'll send me any kind of cancellation notice,
or should I just assume the sale has been voided??
They shouldn't send out a confirmation letter for the order,
IF it's not going to happen!!

I would just sent them an email. They should of sent you an email or something already. Many online pre order record stores have already sent out emails on their canceled pre orders.

So, have these all been sent out and bought up at local record stores now?

Sounds like it. There were 444 of them and it sounds like 350 made it out to retail (the rest going to staff, band members etc..). You might get lucky and randomly find one but it sounds like most of them have been snapped up.

I've still been searching the past few day's online to hook up a few friends with a copy but haven't found anything. Looks like that's it. Your last chance to finding one of these is checking again your local ma & pa record store if you're lucky. Other then that check the Lost Dogs for trades or sales. Then .. head over discogs & eBay .. The cheapest this sold on eBay was $99.99.

I'm still looking for one. Open or sealed, I don't care...

I ended up buying it on discogs for $156.95.

I have access to one of the boxsets if any one is interested.
I received a phone call from a local record shop here in Columbus last night on my way to Cleveland for the My Morning Jacket show.
This was a store I touched base with a few months back...
and asked the owner if it was possible to order one.
I wanted to get my name on the list for a couple of places,
just to be sure I was able to score one copy!!
I already have my copy, so I don't need this one.
I have already offered it to a few people on the boards that expressed interest in acquiring the boxset...but he is asking a little bit more than they want to pay for it!
He is asking for $150 plus tax for the boxset...
If anyone wants this one, I'd be happy to pick it up and ship it to you!
IF you're interested, and would like me to grab it for you,
PLEASE let me know ASAP so I can tell the record store owner whether I want this copy or not!!

It is higher than the retail price...
but I know what kind of hoops he had to jump through to get this.
I was able to get a copy for myself a few weeks ago...
I also paid more than retail for my copy, with taxes mine was close to $80.
Let me know if anyone is interested and wants a "Sure Thing"

Some folks were able to pick up all 3 box sets that were selling for $149.99 over @ discogs from Sound Stage Direct. There was another record store I contacted via Facebook that was gonna sell it for $50 but changed their mind and asked for $160 because it was selling good on eBay. These record stores & their 3x the MSRP prices. No wonder why many vinyl lovers don't shop at local record stores. It's because of shit like this. When will the bands & record companies wake the fuck up & stop distributing their products to these horrible ma & pa record stores who are flipping their product for 3x times the cost. Hell you buy something off of Amazon it's cheaper then the MSRP. Cheaper. Not greater. The price, is below the MSRP price. But you got local record stores who are selling new releases for 3x's the MSRP price, during the first week or two of release? DAMN!

It sucks, but it's like drugs. Who do you blame? The government for creating the black market, the manufacturers for creating the drugs, or does the blame solely lie on the dealers?

In this cause pressing limited vinyl happens all the time (especially for RSD). The small pressings drive up demand and create a financial incentive for store owners to charge more. I personally blame the label/bands for pressing small amounts and creating the environment more than I do the record store guy. Vinyl Films was a bit unique as they pressed the earlier discs before vinyl had a resurgence, but with all these other reissues. It's RSD/Bands/Small Pressings that create the ability to flip items.

If it wasn't rare, 90% of the people wouldn't want it at all.
