I can't agree more with what you've said, though I'm still a member I am down to only one sub and will not be looking to expand on anything, I wanted Pinata had a chance to buy it but it would just sit on the shelf until I resell, in fact I've actually been selling off 90% of my VMP collection, only keeping a couple exclusives (flight to brazil, sad songs, philip glass) next up for sale Handsome Boy Modeling School.
@blissfullychaotic I also had my eye on Pinata & Bandana...but let them pass. They are on my list of things I want at some point. I'm not too particular about version for these releases.
On top of that we would be waiting months for them to arrive, probably warped/damaged/oversold, when we could just go to discogs and pick them up if we really needed it now
