SS Direct is very good. They always identify original pressings vs. reissues. But they are expensive.
Best place to tell what/when reissues are released
Hi all-
I listen mostly to vinyl.Unfortunatley it can be expensive, particularly rare lps. I have purchased a few rare/expensive lps only to realize a few weeks later they are to be reissued for a fraction of the cost I paid for them. Yes, there is a market for original pressings, but reissues can be far less expensive, and occationally sound better. My question is this: where is the best place to determine what future re-releases will be coming down the pipe? For example, Smashing Pumpkins Mellon Collie sells for over $300 on ebay. But if its reissued, it will go for about $35. Thanks
