Yeah, get ready to fork out almost $255-$279 for a sealed copy.

I don't actually think Geogaddi was ever released sealed. I got mine directly from warp, and it did not come sealed. I spoke to some guys over at WATMM about this and they said the same. Makes you wonder why some are advertised on ebay/discogs as 'still sealed'. Pretty easy to get things shrinkwrapped yourself i guess. I assume this is a common problem with things like cd's/vinyl/dvd's in online marketplaces.

they may be ~listed~ for that price, but judging by that, they're not selling for it.

I saw a MHTRTC 2004 repress (yes repress!) on discogs for €1250 on there a couple weeks back! What is wrong with these sellers haha.

Interesting... I just got a sealed copy of Geogaddi from Amazon of all places... I wonder if copies that went out to shops were sealed (I got it from a private seller on Amazon's marketplace who bought two when it came out). Either way, even though I bought it for listening I'm having a tough time opening it...

Wow, how much did it cost you (if you don't mind me asking)? Maybe some were sealed, I really don't know. Joyrex, the site administrator over at watmm.com, said that they were released unsealed. Perhaps some shops then chose to seal them themselves once they were supplied it from warp. Who knows!

I think some shops sealed these for obvious reasons, it's a huge package. I would say they didn't want customers opening the gatefold and risking damage. You know how people are with items they have no intention of buying, that's why you always see floor models for sale because they're thrashed from customers grubby hands.

Also, my BoC records that I bought from Warp (The old Warpmart/Bleep) none of them were ever sealed when I received them.

Makes sense...
I got it for $120 which seemed like a good deal for a mint copy; buying it through Amazon let me use some gift cards I got for the holidays so that helped as well. Pretty happy to finally have a copy.

That's an incredible deal. Well done.

decent fair price €100 approx, was expecting it to reach €120-130. still holding on to mine regardless
