KARP's Self Titled LP has eluded me for years, I don't really really feel like shelling out $100+ for it. I hope K gets around to reissues soon.

I'd wait for reissues unless you really need original pressings for your collection.
For some albums I've even sold off expensive original pressings when I knew reissues were on their way. I did this with SP mellon collie and Soundgarden Superuknown and Down on the Upside (just need them to reissue that one now )

I used them a lot more a year or two ago. Honestly, the last few times I've ordered something must-have from SSD, I ended up seeing it someone else for a comparable (or cheaper) price.

Both. One was Sun Kil Moon's "Benji," which I ordered for $34.99 thinking it wouldn't be available many other places. I've seen it at more than one local store, in many colors, for less than $30.

They're doing "mystery bundles" over at Merge Records this weekend; $18.98 for 3 LPs, $7.98 for 3 7'' records. I'm almost guaranteed to get something I already have (Mountain Goats, Arcade Fire, Destroyer, others...) but it'll be a fun treat!

thanks for pointing this out. i went ahead and ordered a lp and 7" bundle set. at the price of one record for each set, for a total of $27 for 6 releases, this seemed worth the gamble.

I'd be willing to trade if I get things I already have; stay tuned!

I've been searching for Fiona Apple's "Idler Wheel" for my wife for a little while now. It's available every so often on ebay for a ridiculous amount that I don't want to pay. I actually bought the record for my little sister when it first came out -- had I known it was gonna go out of print, I would have gotten two

Some albums I picked up from a guy over on the 10C forum.
Not exactly the most recent releases, but these have been on my radar for a while:

New you am I limited boxset thingy..
These shows were among the best concerts I've ever seen, not from a technical aspect or anything, just the experience. Not sure if there is any fans in the house, but here it is if you are keen
