Thanks Rocko for sharing that. I saw PopMarket was selling it for $195.99(in the U.S. only) so $200 is the average price I suspect.
It looks nice but I have no use for vinyl. My turntable is not hooked-up, my vinyl albums in storage off-site and bet most buyers of this won't even play these. They won't even break the shrink-wrap to look at the covers and booklet.
I gladly pass! This is pretty unnecessary.

I gladly pass! This is pretty unnecessary. No problem....I'm in the same boat with vinyl's...I threw my old ones out, plus i don't have a turntable...? The ole' Chucke these days, is the opposite (lol)....He's right into vinyls.....?

Yeah, original Member here, ChuckE, is a vinyl warrior as his Facebook posts show.
Vinyl records though can kiss my ass! Snap, crackle and pop!
I would take an hour to clean a 40 minute vinyl album with my Discwasher. No thanks!

I have all the original American singles with sleeves, so I'm good. Plus, I have a juke box and these new singles have the little hole instead of the big one that singles used to have. But, it does look like a nice presentation.

These aren't remixes and you won't get better sound quality from old technology like vinyl records.
So the only people this product can be aimed at is collectors who keep products like this in their original shrink wrap and never play them.

It kind of makes sense that they do not play the discs.
Vinyl gives you the highs and the lows that you lose when the music gets compressed for CDs. They say only dogs can hear those tones but vinyl fans are convinced they hear a warmer sound. The CD versions sound so clean and sterile. You know. Like it sounds in the studio.
Dragging the stylus over the record is like adding the milk to the Rice Krispies.
