The final design for a Barrington Ranch (on the right) has been sent out for bidding. Overall, the house looks good but zoning approval could be an issue for the porches.
Entering the home stretch on my Beatles Longbox transaction. The buyer sent over payment and the item has been shipped to a legitimate address in CA. Just waiting for feedback and then I can try to grab one of my most wanted items.
A few interesting items recently including a limited press Picture Disc version of the Sunn o)) / Boris collaboration, Altar. A little expensive at $50 each and Southern Lord has two more different colors available for the vinyl press. The pressing info states there are now 10,000 copies pressed on vinyl and most have sold.
The LP for Death Cab For Cutie full length Plans is still available at Barsuk Records but will be OOP very shortly. Don’t miss out. All the bands’ now OOP vinyl has gone up in value, along with any and all Modest Mouse stuff.
An interesting development with the three different Conquest 7” singles that were released last week from The White Stripes. Apparently the first press of the singles had the wrong sticker applied (YDKWLI) and were shipped before Warner Bros. recalled them. So now the ebay wackos are driving up the price. I was not one of the lucky few, as I cancelled my order from Insound and Interpunk (uggghh) after getting the bonus slipmat ordered from KungFu. Warner has stated they will be putting the correct stickers over the wrong stickers and some collectors are comparing the items to The Beatles Y&T collectible.
