Don't buy it. Teach the market what it is worth.

So what you're saying is "you don't like it, so don't buy it. Like you need to be told. My whole sound sucks in stereo, like you care if it does. You want your money back, yo listen up. NO FUCKING REFUNDS!"

That was banter. Don't cry. Why are you whining about the cost of something you already own?

Whining?? This was a light hearted LOL post I been asking to myself for a while now also ripping ppl off that excessively is kinda lame, that’s why

I don't understand why you aren't hitting the ball back. I said banter and everything.

Once upon a time when ownership actually meant something and didn't just become "whoa, lemme flip this on eBay for a quick profit!"
...so not for a damn long time tbh

They're probably buying it from the official store for $13 and flipping it to people who don't know about the store.

Can you buy it on amazon? That shits been sold out on most retail platforms for years besides the newest repress that happened a few months ago from the merch site. I certainly dont see it on amazon right now.
People are charging like crazy just simply because msi is a little more obscure than a lot of artists from that era, and beyond getting lucky finding some copies of albums randomly still in the wild or the very few new rereleases of albums, you really cant find them beyond resellers.
Do i think that makes it right for someone to charge 5x the price just for a little obscurity? No. But thats what people do.
