Admittedly, I do like some of the colors you can get, and I am a big fan of clear/coke bottle. However, who gives a shit? I want the music on the vinyl disc itself, regardless of color.
I want both. If you can have it all why not
I died. I died and you just stood there. I died and you watched. I died and you walked by and said no. I'm dead.
Kinda upset I took the effort to queue only now to miss out on a variant - lesson learned I guess.
Not sure what you mean by miss out, but the variant is still available in the shop.
Do I need to buy 2?! A heads up would have been nice that's all I'm saying.
Buy both.
You paying??
If you can’t afford another 60 bucks then maybe you shouldn’t be buying anything at all. 🤷♂️
Its not about being able to afford it or not. I get what he's saying. He went out of his way, probably spent a lot of time in line, to buy the black version. And today they release one he thinks is a little cooler. Not so great it is worth having 2 copies over, but still a pretty cool vinyl to have. I get it, I agree to some extent. On a scale 1-10 on how much I care about it being clear, its about a 1.5. If I had the choice I'd pick clear. I'm not going to worry about having just the black version though. But it does seem odd to me. The whole point of RSD is to support local record stores. So why hold what would likely be the more sought after version back? Next year a lot are likely going to wonder if they should wait, or go support their local store again.

He’s just a complainer. It’s an easy fix. Sell the black, pick up the clear.

Thanks Ten Club for making it possible for those that don’t live near record shops to get this and to sweeten the pot by making it an exclusive version..

Seriously. But still bought it. It won't be the first I have more than one copy of.
A few years ago didn't the offer the Record Store Day release ahead of time? Like the Alive one or something? Why not just do this up front? Because we're all suckers.
That's good you got it though! If I wasn't poor rn after my purchase yesterday and some concerts coming up, I would have too. But yeah - I hear you for sure. I guess I'm glad I have the No Code 10c variant....

I think she’s sold something like 600,000 VINYL records this calendar year so far, so I’d say way more people want this “shit” than anything else. I don’t think I’ve seen anything like it since Michael Jackson’s heyday.
sad state of the world, my friend.
I love Taylor Swift. How is this sad? She is great.

They sure are jacking up the prices.
Cheapest I've seen the vinyl in UK is £31.99 & the CD @ £13.99. Being the UK edition is 3000 vinyl & the CD 1000.
Taz Records here in Canada was selling the vinyl @ $53.99 CDN a pop. That's only $39.88 US. CD for $21.99 CDN.
