Better deals to be had. But it's hard to see exactly what these are. Are these generic cardboard outer jackets or the rice-paper inner sleeves? If the inner sleeves then check this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0019QENZW/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 I like these. Acid Free is a biggie for me (whether or not it really makes a difference, I can't say, but why risk it). Also, I like the rounded corners, makes it a little easier to get back into the outer sleeve. Also, 50 shipped for $28, so a bit cheaper than the ones you linked. If it's actually the outer cardboard jacket, then I can't comment as I've never bought those. Also, if you are in the market for plastic outer covers for the cardboard sleeves (highly recommended to protect the jackets) Amazon.com: (100) INDUSTRY STANDARD 3mil Thick Plastic Outer Sleeves for 12" Vinyl Records #12SE03 - Protect Against Dust.: Electronics

I've only listened to 2 of the 4 sides (double LP). It does have like 3 (maybe 4?) different versions of "Man of Constant Sorrow" on it. To me, the real gem on that album that is worth the price of the entire album is Allison Krauss "Down to the River to Pray". That is just amazing. I can't imagine anyone, ever, doing a better version of that song. Bottom line, it sounds great. For $15 on Amazon, it is a no-brainer. I just wish I had bought it when it was released, didn't know what I was missing!

This is also good news: Warner about to launch vinyl offensive Click to expand... FWIW, I got into vinyl in 1997, when I was about 20 years old or so. I'm ahead of the curve. I completely believe this data. Simple supply and demand, I am paying more for vinyl now than I did in the late 90s and early 00s. On the other hand, the price for CDs has dropped. Especially if you compare used vinyl to used CDs, the prices have flip-flopped since the late 90s. One of my older friends here in town, went to several garage sales / estate sales in the ritzy part of town in the mid-80s and bought several high end TTs and equip for a fraction of what they are worth today. If anyone is near central TX, this might be worth checking out.
