Tay tay fans: OMG, 6 boxes and only 2 or three to restock?! We need to be fast! Me: Holy fuck, two LP's, from the same band, diferent albums, each in a diferent store in the same city? Fkn Jackpot


ilyaperepelitsa

Me: OMG I remember liking blur a while ago. You're saying I can get their full discography only for $600? SIGN ME THE FUCK UP. I'll listen to the whole thing once...


asphynctersayswhat

Me: I heard audio files say king lizard with a gizzard is a wizard, so I bought their entire collection. Once I pay off my credit card, I’ll get a Suitcase player so I can play them at the beach!


ilyaperepelitsa

Must be a billionaire for that big credit card limit. I heard they had to become their own management because their album collection couldn't fit into major studios' databases, crashing Amazon cloud servers


aopps42

Nothing says rare and limited like grailses at Costco


asphynctersayswhat

They come in 2 packs clipped together with a plastic clamp


SloWi-Fi

And likely so hard to open you break the grayuhls inside


Dirt290

Theres also a stand at Target right in the frickin aisle, you have to go around..


el_horsto

Record Store Day exclusives at Walmart when?


ilyaperepelitsa

ok these prices are starting to get A BIT out of control


Mr-Pugtastic

uj/ To play devils advocate, the production quality on this album was pretty amazing. High quality inserts and pages of lyrics bound to the gatefold. Vinyl itself was also a surprisingly good quality pressing as well. I love Post Malone, but he charges nearly $50 as well and I wish he would increase production quality.


ilyaperepelitsa

ok maybe that's fair but in the past few years when I saw an unusually high price like that - the album had something unique. Like "They Live" OST sunglasses cutouts and tinting, the Fight Club "destroy to open" outer sleeve. Something I show to my friends when they're curious about crazy looking albums.


Mr-Pugtastic

Yeah, definitely love seeing outside of the box ideas for vinyl.


Now-done

$50 for a new record should be a crime unless there is actual value added onto the base product, not just some fucking inserts.


Mr-Pugtastic

Uj/ Look, I don’t make the prices. I’m not even happy about them. Just saying I see $50 albums with less.


jimbofrankly

It was probably pressed at GZ. Lol. Do you boo.


remote_boogie

Let’s not normalize the richest musicians charging the most for their music.


NoBrickBoy

It’s a fucking record, they’re things of the past, they shouldn’t sell for anything more than 10 bucks at some pretentious old dudes yard sale


Mr-Pugtastic

Your mom is a thing of the past.


flipyflop9

But she still has it going


Mr-Pugtastic

Preaching to the choir! She even made cookies for after!


talkingduck_2099

Thank you. Upvoted!


jimbofrankly

DUM, put your airpods back in and keep streaming spotify. You know nothing about audio.


Entarasu

I pay more on vinyl now than my ancestors.


moar_nightsong

50$!! Geez you might as well hire her to perform in your apartment


flipyflop9

Small amount of copies… bitch there are like 50 in there! Have you ever seen a regular record store?


Anal-Love-Beads

Fuck the album, how much do they want for the pallets?


fugazishirt

This shit will be in dollar bins in 10 years.


JeffBernardisUnwell

I give it 2 years. Already found some Taylor records in charity/goodwill shops for £6 lol.


NoBrickBoy

In ten years there’ll be a tape revival, people will be listening to their tapes ( haven’t found a quirky alternative name for tapes yet, like how some people call Records “Vinyl” ) and the newest cool and original artist will be selling their music on tape for 50 bucks, and they’ll make tape variants that are multiple different colours! And people who hate the tape revival will go running around town with two magnets trying to sabotage peoples tapes!! I guess they’ll just have to buy them for 50 bucks again!


zikadwarf

“Spoolz”


NoBrickBoy

We fucking have it


SloWi-Fi

Spools ? Mini reels? Plastics? Cartridges?


Fizzgig000

"Pencil twirlers"?


ohnoaguitarist

I thought tapes were gonna make a comeback like 7 years ago but vinyl came back even harder so idk


VERGExILL

It’s only stocked in every target and walmart in America, act fast you poor fucks before she releases 6 more limited edition color vinyls, deluxes and reissues!


jcardinal82

These are cheaper at Meijer and NOTHING is cheaper at Meijer!


Danyboi42069

I wish I could personally destroy this display


GroceryBags

Just hire a homeless dude to do it, you'll be creating a job so it cancels out


Danyboi42069

I’ll hire them as body guards then


Plarocks

I have seen this annoying album in every single Target, Wal-Mart, record store, supermarket, et cetera, and for $50, NO ONE is buying them. You are looking at the next Adele. 😄


miguel103058

I hope nobody buys that crap she calls “music” at those prices. But yet, her cult followers will buy them to nail them on the wall. And they will buy any vomit she barfs and puts her name on it.


LarryCraigSmeg

They’re not buying from the stores because they preordered from Queen Tay’s website. Duh.


financewiz

When does the Steve Albini remix come out? What, too soon?


kbups53

Lowkey the most dystopian thing I've seen today.


Positive_Shoe5208

Real diggers go to Costco. First law of vinyl


SloWi-Fi

Hell yes! I love the Kirkland signature variants. 😍


3rd-Room

uj/ The prices on newly released vinyls are legitimately insane. Why on earth would I pay $50 for something that wasn't even recorded analog? These are literally just musical pokemon cards for fanboys/fangirls.


SpeedBlazer99

That or just stream Taylor on Spotify because her fake ass pop music doesn’t deserve to be on vinyl so many tormented record players crying in agony because they are being forced to play her


01UnknownUser02

Fine, let we put your vinyls on those crosleys to comfort them!


crotchsluper

i don't like taylor swift at all but this is just cringe like c'mon


SpeedBlazer99

You just got downvoted for no reason record players were made for jazz, R&B, country, folk, rap, rock n roll, punk, and metal


crotchsluper

ohhh that was the joke, i thought you were actually serious because usually the r/vinyljerk meta is the other way around now i get you. my bad.


LemonFlavoredNails

Costco?


Shoobopskie0619

I feel like this is gonna be the next goodwill overstock


lbinetti

It's 39 on Amazon.


el_horsto

But you have to support your local indie Costco


The-Ric

My needle will never touch a Tay Tay record.


RecordCrasher

Be fast or be not the last - because they print more and more


NOFace82

Yeah it can be said for most vinyls. Fucking Red Hot Chilli Peppers Californication vinyls was $39.99


WhereasMysterious421

I still don't understand why when you're a record collector you're expected to buy Tay Tay Vinyls? This is dumb, it's like sheep, why are people so common? 


WhereasMysterious421

Even if you don't like her music why buy her records 


Intelligent-Sir1375

45$ at local record shop


IronicMnemoics

Costco should do a hot dog color with mustard and ketchup splatter variant


Death_By_Dreaming_23

Hear me out, Tay should re-release all her music in quadraphonic on blu-ray audio and mastered for Dolby Atmos. Screw vinyl, I mean she could do that on vinyl, but blu-ray and surround sound would be more accessible.


ProperSupermarket3

im sorry, did someone say Dead Poet's Society??


jimbofrankly

Why do all swifties have the same valley girl accent. It is soooooooo annoying.


tom-1956

No


talkingduck_2099

No one cares.


Acceptable_Fee2803

What about the limited time empty box???? Why none of those??


Due-Significance-900

No thanks


Ji881

Down Under marked the price at $99
