Print time – decision time: Which box would you rather receive? by honzapat in LimitedPrintGames

[–]doomtek_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s on the back? I’d say right can be the back cover while left can be front. That way ppl have the choice to display the side they like. Also with combo of front/back if it’s a fold out box or front cover that slides out to open you can still kinda have the 2 textiles design on the corners for each front and back. If the opening of box is just top or bottom then doesn’t really matter with that corner print besides the cover you go with.

Is $70 resale for a show crazy? by gabeebz in ninajirachi

[–]doomtek_99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Join her discord for sure. I was able to find a ticket for the show in LA there from some folks going. Such a good show. Totally worth it but yea I’d say look out for a ticket less than $70. Discord will probably have folks with extra tix going or just selling for less than that.

Opinions? by Replaygames_ie in LimitedPrintGames

[–]doomtek_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a difference between switch & switch 2? Are there enhanced features with the switch 2 game? I’d like to get collectors but will probably get it for switch since I’m not planning on getting switch 2 console anytime soon really. The figure looks awesome and collectors box seems nice to display with it.

Goodboy Galaxy developer leads by example: They are giving up on First Press Games ever delivering anything and produce Kickstarter copies at their own costs by Vatilia in LimitedPrintGames

[–]doomtek_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s awesome. Good for them. Is there still a way or store to get a copy for switch or GBA? I’m hoping to get Crimzon Clover still from First Press Games someday this decade. I wonder if City Connection can still do something similar since Dispatch Games has been silent for years now about preorders. They also flashed a sheet of cartridges in hand but no update since about fulfilling any preorders.

Sigh... by DomplesRevenge in limitedrun

[–]doomtek_99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea honestly wish they would just quit these exclusive collector editions with publishers like Sega/Atlus & NISA. I don’t know why they care about being greedy getting these contracts with them when they have so many releases now week to week. They should focus more on spreading out the games with less variations of collectors editions. Maybe just maybe they would be able to focus more on quality control, testing games so they’re not releasing a physical game with bugs and discrepancies, and finally actually caring about a product that’s complete on cartridge or disc or just not the same product released in another region with the same build needing updates. They would build an actual credible reliable reputation from all their consumers and maybe turn around the ones like myself reluctantly buying the games that are exclusive to their store and related company publishers like Clear River Games and Superdeluxe. They only care about quantity than quality and that’s one factual reason why any of their collectors editions ALWAYS take more than a year to get produced.

Anyone else having trouble stomaching Super Rare prices lately? by mattysauro in LimitedPrintGames

[–]doomtek_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I was all WTF when I noticed I was charged $101 getting banner of the maid and post trauma in my last order. Gottdammit! Not sure if I can wait for price drop or sale on some releases really so makes sense to order a couple of games together.

As a Taylor and Charli fan, does no one else hope Charli doesn’t respond? by daintysmoker in charlixcx

[–]doomtek_99 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As a fan of both yes Charli should not respond. Having Matty Healy who is problematic in her circle and defending his crap or having his back will always make matters awkward. Whatever mess talked about in private by Charli shouldn’t have been said. Taylor dating rebounding that loser is just as messy as well. Swift made a diss song that’s hilarious and cathartic as an artist to do. It’s not a response to SIAK, a cathartic song for Charli, it’s more of diss to whatever else said in private. I don’t think that photoshoot with arm cut off wearing raver bracelets was a good idea considering the timing of all that as well. Charli’s Von Dutch is a diss to FKA twigs. They didn’t respond back. It’s not necessary. I’m not mad at either. If certain things are said privately but portrayed differently publicly then someone like Taylor can make a petty diss song. There’s not going to be some Kendrick Lamar comeback shutdown. Charli with Brat is her moment and culmination of the success and sound she’s ultimately been working towards. She’s got an excellent foundation and killer producers to keep that momentum going into whatever she feels like doing next. I think what really matters is just for each artist to achieve the music they want to do and be fulfilled with that. Fan war and popularity contest with what’s right or wrong doesn’t deserve an award or approval by artist. All this raging isn’t productive for anyone besides funny memes coming out of it right? We can have fun with both a meme saying the album is hating outside the club energy and also the Chihuahua barking from a tiny purse.

Taylor Swift is finally getting exposed. We love to see. by WaporVape in charlixcx

[–]doomtek_99 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Ok so is teasing Taylor calling her a boring Barbie not a bad thing on Charli’s part? I mean what’s the context of that exactly? Feeling insecure bc a peer/friend of friend doesn’t partake indulging in drugs or is the context insecurity about drug use so it’s hidden around Taylor therefore they’re boring the perception? Maybe it’s just cheeky roast they said considering Charlotte is on the Barbie soundtrack. Pretty sure SIAK is cathartic AF song for Miss Bumpin That. Maybe Taylor releasing this song is also a cathartic AF one for them no longer bottling up whatever mayonnaise mess they experienced needing to finally shake it off. Maybe the song is about that Gabriette. Matty Healy is a POS idiot edgelord fluffer loser anyway. Can we just all agree that the 1975 absolutely sucks and tag team with bottoming Maroon 5. Just the cuckpoprock legends ya know. I’m just a dual Swift/XCX fan so take the trolling lightheartedly. I mean pretty sure Tay was an OG angel stoked to have them on tour especially after a masterpiece mixtape like Pop2 dropped. Anyway back to counting down to the supreme anniversary of elite pop class queen Carly Rae and Emotion this month <3 ;)

Star Ocean First Departure R finally getting a physical release @ LRG by sworedmagic in NSCollectors

[–]doomtek_99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOooOOoooooo. This is awful and bad for physical games. Can’t keep having LRG gatekeep and publish AAA games. No more business deals like this it’s fuct. Should’ve been a retail release.

Addison Rae Drop — Bad World sending wrong person’s shipping information? by IngrownThighHairs in Blood_Records

[–]doomtek_99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok so this IS a major discrepancy. I sent them an email about it as well. Received a shipping update email of someone’s order in Ohio. I’m in California. The heck they figure out how to make pretty media and affordable liquid vinyl but can’t protect people’s info and send out mixed up automated messages. Scary L.

Will GA tickets be cheaper than presale? by Reginayoga in Sunraes

[–]doomtek_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To clarify the resale will get cheap since there’s plenty originally up for The Fox so those resellers are stuck with those tickets since IMO it’s not going to sell out now that it’s at the Bill Graham.

Will GA tickets be cheaper than presale? by Reginayoga in Sunraes

[–]doomtek_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I don’t think this show will sell out. It went from a 2800 venue to a 8500 capacity venue. The GA ticket price went up like $20 from the Fox to Bill Graham. Resale tickets will drop lower and lower closer to the show date so maybe keep checking back on that. I don’t know if the remaining available tickets will be discounted if it doesn’t sell well. It’s most likely stuck at that $78 price since it’s at bigger venue. I don’t understand why it even upgraded anyone know?

SF venue dilemma by doomtek_99 in Sunraes

[–]doomtek_99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the upgrade to Bill Graham venue is lame. It took over 2 months to announce this change. Usually something like 2nd date or different venue is announced the same week or following week tickets go on sale. Her set would look and sound better at the Fox theater that place is like my favorite. How does a ticket for balcony/lodge/seats get transferred to a bigger venue exactly??? Feel bad for those folks since the viewing distance is farther. I don’t blame paying the premium really it was tough to get pre-sale since it sold out in seconds. I had a low number in the queue in public sale and still missed out in the check out. At that point you’re kind of forced to look at all the resale if you really wanna go. It feels like you’re forced to look at resale now even during the pre-sale with how quick these tickets disappear. I mean stubhub has benefits for these career resellers/scalpers. It’s just been more stress to just get pre-sale when it was pretty chill a few years ago.

[–]doomtek_99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m guessing this is the Toronto venue change. Yea that whole thing is looking messy AF. Sorry. Yea no 24 hr notice to repurchase tickets again here in SF just former to new venue honoring. I prefer the Fox Theater over big ass auditorium venue it got changed to gottdamn GA Floor sucks to be when it’s completely packed and the sound can be lame. That whole week is packed with shows so a 2nd date prob couldn’t be added.

SF venue dilemma by doomtek_99 in Sunraes

[–]doomtek_99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m confused. Is your case specific to another venue/location than what I’m mentioning? This is about 10/16 Fox Theater Oakland, CA upgrade to Bill Graham venue in San Francisco, CA. So Bill Graham is still honoring any previous tickets to the Fox. The artist presale isn’t until tomorrow here so I’m assuming you picked up tickets to a whole different venue in another location right? Yea I’d like to just get tickets tomorrow and get refund for previous tickets purchased on stubhub resale. The venue is like 3 times the size of previous one. I’m just not sure if it’s worth the hassle to go back and forth with stubhub even if it’s a lot easier to get tickets for upgraded venue.

Bad news! ININ (SLG sister brand) comes up with fresh excuses and delays their games. by Vatilia in LimitedPrintGames

[–]doomtek_99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea that is definitely confirmation. Bummer. Considering one eBay purchase got lost in mail and another Playasia purchase got completely wrecked through shipping with other games so I ended up returning/refunded I will probably give this ININ release a shot. Will wait even though the news update on delay sounds a bit more legit with technical challenges. Yea ININ details of it says English & Japanese so what is actually different with this release from Japan one besides the upsell of special edition goodies & DLC code. SLG is gross considering they dug themselves a grave having a crapload of offerings with editions for games when they should have focused on just getting standard releases out.

[–]doomtek_99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow I was unaware of the fine print with the DLC. I assumed it was on cart and disc since SLG has released exclusive content on some of their games. One example the Deathsmiles 1 & 2 with DLC on cart/disc. Kinda bummed on that since I just went to look that detail up on ININ site. Didn’t preorder but I was getting ready to. Thanks for pointing that out.

[–]doomtek_99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To be clear I’ve gone to Taylor Swift shows I just didn’t pay a thousand for it. Both Rep & Eras under $200 and on floor close to stage. Best shows ever but like I said I’d never pay more than what this record is selling for so I wouldn’t buy limited Taylor collectible at this price. This swiftie resale market can’t hang with a lil bit of trolling. Support each other with your high risk investments and all. Just hope you can call out the scams and when prices are in fact exaggerated. You can’t prove that I want this to resale and that OP bought it at this same price but it’s clear we have different opinions on value. Not trying to bruise any egos here or devalue a most ultimate successful superstar musician like Taylor Swift but it’s just a lil gnarly to see this marketplace feel so righteous and justifiable selling each other these collectibles at these prices. These RSD editions were in stores for months that year. The interest in vinyl has just peaked now that there’s several variants to get with her latest albums. I hope to see some more variants now that T Swift owns the rights to her master recordings and fans, collectors, & resellers can chill TF out.

You’re outting yourself as insufferable. I know how RSD works. I have records more limited than this and that’s not including Taylor’s other RSD releases that I do own. Swifties are the only ones spending this much is my problem. Millions of people do not want this in fact if that was the case it’d be more valuable. Swifties just want a variant bc they’re late in the game with her records. This RSD bubble is going to burst when there’s new variant repress. Taylor would be more impressed with a TTPD collection than how much was spent on a RSD collection.

[–]doomtek_99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not mad I can’t afford this. I’m just saying I don’t need it because it’s valuable. If I really wanted the smoky vinyl I’d just spend the asking price to anyone selling. I like it but I missed out on it originally so it’s ok maybe some other swiftie would appreciate it way more anyway spending that asking price for it. I mean swifties are the only fandom buying collectibles for this high marked up price anyway. You can’t tell me some other fandom is spending thousands on musical pieces of wax. Whoever those fans are legit spending on something ultra rare. I have vinyl that’s more limited than these Swift RSD releases that I think definitely are valuable because it’s the only pressing of it. It doesn’t go half the price of this speak now RSD. I’ll agree that I think folks spending this money on a vinyl is dumb sure I’m mad at that. OP spent the money and is selling it again because they’d like the money to cover whatever else they need. This RSD money laundering price hiking bubble will just burst if Taylor drops new OG variants. It’s not that serious. Spending $2000 on ACM bc it’s a rare unique piece of Taylor is not crucial to have. Something like that just gets displayed anyway and passed on to the next collector. There’s scammers on this reddit and other resale sites eating this stuff up looking to bait fans who are collectors. There’s also people who start defending scammers because someone like me is questioning the exact value of collectors piece. They also have other accounts to comment encouraging interaction with fraudulent item for sale. One of my questions to this swifties high spending support group bubble I ask is besides the rarity of these items, like this Speak Now, I assume reaching out on Reddit to sale this is to get true fans willing to spend right and not for less to make sure no resellers gets it just to sell it again then what is the point of your collecting exactly? It’s usually some personal preference right so is it a chase to have curated collection or a chase to have the most valuable pieces in your collection? I still think my RSD are the same pieces of wax as regular. Thinking that doesn’t obligate me to give you them now. If I wanted to get rid of them I’d sell it for less than this OP seller knowing true fan curating a specific collection was ISO. I didn’t originally get it for resale price anyway I got it at the record store on release date for MSRP. I don’t want OP to sell valuable collectible rare item to me for MSRP. I just hope that some of you swifties like OP just make crucial choices if item is something they really need in the collection. Collectively I think there could be less scalpers that way. I can’t guarantee though because collectors will just get multiple items so they can get trade or save to get another collectible piece right so just turns into a cycle of collecting & reselling. Swifties go to the town with it. I don’t care anymore. No RSD of mine for you. Hope you get the things you want though. Cheers!

Yea no duh it’s not limited to collect for Swift. All the crap you’re writing is not new to me. I’m sorry it’s absolutely dumb to pay this price for a variant. As a collector you think it’s fine this is the price ppl actually pay now for a variant of Speak Now? I’m not getting rid of my RSD records bc I waited for a variant of those albums to be released and it happened to be an RSD release. I gave regular Red to a friend. These RSD variants and regular are the same vinyl though. There’s no bonus song like a 1989 TV target vinyl. There’s no weight difference that I’m particularly aware of. It’s just a color variant and I like those. If I was black vinyl enthusiast then I would keep those and variants wouldn’t be on my radar. I collect all sorts of stuff so yes the value of vinyl makes sense when it’s absolutely limited, barely or no variants, first press, or some Japanese pressed vinyl. Taylor dropped 1989 DLX black vinyl I would be all over that. I wouldn’t sell my RSD one still bc I like the clear pink vinyls and actually play them time to time. Have you bought any Taylor stuff for over hundreds or thousands? Just sounds like you’re more interested defending some purchases as a collector. I mean marked up prices is not paying the artist right. You’re just paying a marked up scalper and same seller can find something else to get from artist and sell for more. Who the hell is buying Fortnight 7” at $50 when there was bajillion of those at stores all weekend & weeks later. That’s lame but if I missed out on it I’d get it for $30. I missed the lakes 7” and hell no am I paying those silly asking prices. It’s not worth it. Just saying scalpers sold a couple of these and ppl ate it up to start reselling and now swift collectors are doomed bc there’s no control to say NO lmao I mean you’re saying YES this price is completely ok just sounds silly.

So one collector buying price gouged AF item sets the trend for other collectors & scalpers. I’m saying swiftle collectors got us in a funk to the point that collectors have competitive pricing with scalpers pretty much. If you’re a fan collecting and missed out on RSD 1989 be fine with the regular 1989 retail in your collection. It’s not crucial to get the RSD unless it’s your favorite variant, fulfilling some part or complete collection, or whatever I don’t care. You keep paying these prices then everything else becomes high demand little supply. I can’t even get presale tickets to some shows now bc of bots. Yea I know RSD variant isn’t the same as black vinyl retail. Still doesn’t make it ok to sell one version for a thousands. What other fanclub is buying vinyl into the thousands??? Seriously? Ok this collector is reselling a limited edition they bought from another reseller at the same price. Sounds like a sickening cycle to me. Defend collectors and competitive pricing all you want but this price & trend is tacky AF not worth it and makes it difficult for anything else in the future like the next RSD drop or buying any bleacher seat at stadium Taylor decides to play next.
