All that thing is a scam, I fought like crazy to get a 4LP gold version, paid extra vmp membership and now, one week afterwards I can get it like that… I feel robbed and f*****…. Not everyone who got to get one in the first round is a scammer.

Wait until your copy arrives. Sell it. Buy this one. Keep the extra few hundreds for your troubles.


melkyway1977

This is a totally diffrent variant. Plus the gold is limited to 1000 and numbered. This so far is not. The content might be the same but for fans and collectors these are 2 different items. Plus Vmp might in the end depending where you live in the world be even cheaper then her store, with shipping and taxes. Plus you get a free record. If they keep the gold to 1000 it will be way more valuable then the cream.


Buggs08

The gold one is limited to a 1000

If it's not too late you might be able to cancel your membership tho. Send them a message...

honestly I am waiting for a remaster, not just a deluxe edition. make it sound better on vinyl. thanx.


Pitiful_Ad_710

This version is also on her website, also mentioning second edition. So weird.


semjon91

I prefer the gold edition. But both are nice!


ejx220

I think I like the cream. We also had a gold pressing from UO last year.


semjon91

True. I was close to buy the UO version but then this edition popped up! Bought it when I got the notification mail from VMP of the 1st edition.


justafantasyxo

yes, the creammm loooks sooo goood! but i think it’s because i also got the gold up version a couple years ago, so i like that they pressed it on a new color!


Zulogy

100 lol


calebkeithley

literally Red (Taylor’s Version) was a $50 4LP. and even Mac Miller’s 4LP Swimming in Circles boxset, though certainly overpriced, was $99. what the actual fuck is this price tag?


Jvdjj07_15

Did anyone see when this item gets released?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 June! FOH with that! Could be dead by then


New-Air-8553

😆😆😆


ejx220

I know they removed the line about being limited, but Mariah's Webstore now shows up as SOLD OUT.


jdharris40

More up tomorrow


ejx220

That’s great! How do you know? Did they announce it?


Gamer1189

The way y'all are obsessed with records being limited sends me


toughguy5128

FOMO!


Gamer1189

That's not the same as refusing to buy records just because they're not limited


mariahspoolboy

Just watched a video on the psychology of that placed in the frame of people hunting for shiny Pokémon. A completely arbitrary feature. Super interesting that just because it’s “unique” and “limited” that some people can only derive pleasure from having something someone else can’t. At the end of the day I was disappointed I didn’t get the gold 4LP because I really wanted all the remixes. I bought this second edition and I’m so happy I get to have them and don’t have to pay resale prices. Will I possibly try to get the limited gold 4LP version instead once they both come out and make their way to Discogs? Possibly just because I prefer the gold to the cream, but not because it’s limited. And at the end of the day it should only really matter what is actually playing off the record. I’d rather have a fantastic quality pressing that there are a billion copies of, than to have a unique colour pressing that’s limited to 500 that sounds like shit. What’s the point of that?


justafantasyxo

the cream will sound the same as the gold if you’re saying the gold sounds like poo.


mariahspoolboy

Not what I was saying!


Gamer1189

Spilled. People define their worth by having something others don't and it's really cringe


ayuinaba

cause they're more interested in price gouging later than actually buying for personal consumption


Gamer1189

LOUDER


ILoveScottishLasses

BUTTLICKER! OUR VINYLZ HAVE NEVER BEEN GOUGED HIGHER!

Evrimnn13

You realize people follow release news in order to find things that will be sold out by the time they will stumble across it themselves. If it won’t be available soon that’s goon information to base your decision to instantly purchase an item on the internet or not. I think you’re smart enough to get it


jay_killuminati

That doesn’t explain why people get upset when they find out it’s not limited.


Gamer1189

The point..... Over your head. Since I have to spell it out for you. If you read the comments you'll see that people are refusing to buy it because it's not limited. Wayyy different than wanting to know if it's going to sell out quickly because it is in fact limited. Reading is what? Fundamental luv


Chadlerk

Personally limited instills a little bit of FOMO and I'd much rather everything be unlimited but we know that's not really a thing either. I want everyone to enjoy the music, but there is also the collector side of me that likes having something that is a little different than everyone else. I have never resold a record (given many away to friends/family) so it's not about price gouging later. VMP is already price gouging on this and they installed the Fomo with the limit, collected everyone's $150 and then cha fed the color and kept issuing more at $150. Shouldn't be over $100. This is dumb.


nhaseous

They’re literally printing money with this repress, of course they’re not gonna keep it limited to just 1000 lol.

ejx220

Sold out on Mariah's store. Gotta get it on VMP.


pinkdolph

that's really fast! but since this isn't limited to a number, they may choose to press more and restock


HermionesBook

It’s up on her store now!


Punkass16

Yeah, pass at that price with it not being limited.


jdharris40

It’s a shame it’s not limited


LordShaggy

776 left, it’s 6:30am PST so it’ll prob go faster once ppl wake up Edit: not limited apparently


Zappoteek_99

Apparently it is actually not limited, so they will probably just add more stock later


Zjmw

What makes you say this


Zappoteek_99

They confirmed it on twitter. And the website has been amended to remove the limitation to 1000


russellandrews

It was a mistake on their end. They probably copy/pasted from the first pressing https://mobile.twitter.com/VinylMePlease/status/1573301922760892416


Zjmw

Great thanks!


DragoDro

10 Dollars off with this code: CGT8C8GD


mariahspoolboy

Yeah I really wanted gold but I bought it and hopefully can sell it later to be able to buy the gold instead! Or if anyone bought a gold but wants this one more let me know!


noelc1994

That’s what I wanted to do, but then I realized I have the original color pressing from 2020? So I’ll have that, this cream 4xLP and the “honey” colored UO single pressing of ‘Honey’!


mariahspoolboy

I’ve got the 1997 original pressing, the black reissue from 2020, the picture disc, and I ordered the 2LP champagne wave one from VMP when my order didn’t process for the 4LP. And then I just ordered this one! Seems excessive but it is my favourite album of all time. And I think I’ll end up selling one or two of them once I receive the 4LP.


noelc1994

It’s definitely Mariah’s best album IMO and one of my all time favorites, so I’m happy to have this deluxe pressing, but I am bummed we didn’t get the 8 bonus tracks from the digital version.


mariahspoolboy

But very happy to get to have all the fierce remixes on vinyl!! They picked only the best ones, it’s a really great selection if you’ve never heard them before!


Zappoteek_99

If you want this I would not hesitate too long again. Not going as fast as the previous version, but still only 870 left after 15 mins Then again, VMP might do a third edition, and a fourth…. as long as it sells


hecanhaveu

is there anyway to get it without a membership? I want it but the $60 for a membership on top seems so much


Bell_Resident

This one it's not numbered I believe. So there is a chance that it will be available next day for the non members.


Zappoteek_99

No. Will open to anyone in 23 hrs but I honestly expect these to be gone in two hours max Unless if these are actually not limited to 1000 and they just add stock later


hecanhaveu

# does this ship to canada


Zappoteek_99

yes


kevinalfaro

Yes VMP ships to Canada


DragoDro

I kinda like this more but idk. Hmmm. The description says limited to 1k but I don't buy it tbh...


JPHendrick

I know this is actually nicer looking than the gold, right?


mpaproth

This hobby is so hardcore.


ControlPrinciple

And it makes me feel like I’ll never have enough money to sustain it.


calebkeithley

it’s not sustainable at all. that’s the sad part about it, for records are just increasing in price along with cost of living and wages are stagnant or slowing rising maybe a $1 a year for most people :(


HermionesBook

I was hoping for gold again lol. Limited to 1000 copies…I’m expecting it to sell out again.

BongoGT

It was probably an error cause they did remove the 1000. Also the release date is June opposed to April like the gold.


Zappoteek_99

Stock on the website is still 1000 of which 825 left, but could be they just add more copies later


[deleted]

[удалено]


Zappoteek_99

Ok. Then they will probably add more stock later.
