$15 for shipping from TWY’s store is gross.

 

Retail white version of TWY: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DWXZ9HXB/?tag=absolutepunk-20

 

This is back in stock on their webstore for anyone who wanted it, including me.

 

And now a Hand-numbered Smartpunk variant: The Wonder Years - Burst & Decay Volume 3 | Smartpunk Exclusive

 

lol wtf

 

Dammit, their shipping is always cheap.

 

Love the variants but that photo is atrocious...

 

haha, my screen grab works a little funky sometimes. Looks much better on socials.

 

So, newer to collecting and this may be a silly question, but are lower # on the hand numbers more valuable than others? For example would 23/250 be more valuable than 182/250, or is it all the same?

 

A couple bangers arrived today!

 

IIRC (at least for Smartpunk), only the jacket sleeve is numbered so I don’t think it really matters.

 

some people really prefer specific numbers for whatever reason - you should have seen the amount of time people spent in the furnace fest bins looking for specific OBI strips that coincided to numbers they wanted.

but ultimately, i’d bet if there was a price difference, most would go for the cheaper option.

the only times where i think there could be an importance placed on a lower or higher number would be like… some records are numbered and the first 20 are white vinyl, then 21-100 are green vinyl, then 101-300 are blue vinyl, etc. but i feel like i rarely see that anymore!

 

Most record shop owners have told me that the lower the number of the stamp/hand-numbered version tends to be more valuable. But personally, having the same variant of a hand-numbered with a slightly higher number probably won’t matter much to people except collectors. If you ever snag a numbered version less than 10, that’s definitely worth hanging onto since I think heard somewhere the lowest numbers are reserved for the artist and their families. Not sure if that’s actually true, though! Haha

 

Didn't they say anyone who preordered part 2 would have early access to Pt 1? Whenever that is.... Haha

 

Yep. And who knows if they even keep the list with the changes that went down.

 

Couple recent mail days and my 400th record.

These were on sale.


These were BOGO from Newbury



And 400!

 

Also I posted the leak weeks back but pretty sure Underoath preorders go live tomorrow or Friday along with their new single. It's been an expensive fucking week for me personally.

 

Drive Thru Records: Shady then, shady now.

*Listens to Midtown's "Become What You Hate"*

 

SIGNED?

 

5 days off and need of a mental break from life in general. Dusted this one off in the midst of a snowstorm.

Personally one of my favorite Green Day albums hands down.

Some of their best songs on this bad boy. Church on Sunday is still one of my all time favorite Green Day songs.

 

The best Green Day album for my money.

 

Underoath preorders are up along with their livestream. Shit is fucking expensive.
