and same with Into the Wild...its still sought after.
I found a “Mint” copy of Into the Wild on Discogs. Vinyl was pristine (which is important) but the back of the sleeve has a three inch tear on it. Seller argued and got a bad review.
I now have a VG+ Media (I’ve played it) and G Sleeve copy. The biggest problem is people are now trying to sell played copies as “NM or M-) when a played record is at best VG+.
It’s jacking up the prices on used records...VG+ is worth half of a M or NM copy (M- means nothing to me).
If another RE of Into the Wild happens I’m jumping all over it.
At the back or on the top of the gatefold? A website wich I forget what it was called (Aurelexploits?) was the only other place to get first press other than 10c. They didn't ship them well, so most of them have a tear at the top of the gatefold (and the inner sleeve). I think they might of had half the copies, so there's a lot of 'em (including mine) that have the tear :(

On the back of the gatefold. Right on the calligraphy writing of “Into”
For $42 you could get Lost Dogs, Riot Act and Vitalogy. That’s less than price of one Dark Matter vinyl
Early 00’s was a great time to be buying vinyl.
Kind of. The problem I had in the early 00's was that it was hard to find the vinyl. Not many places stocked new vinyl in the late 90's / early 00's. Even though there were limited pressings of stuff, just having a store that brought them in was tough. That being said, I never had a problem finding PJ Vinyl. Toughest was Lo2L, but my brother accidentally stumbled on a copy for me at a store that didn't usually care modern vinyl.

6 LP records vs just 1 LP. The times, are messed up!
