Here's another one that I bought when it came out, but which I have only just recently received. Originally released for RSD in 2017, Damnation A.D. covered the whole 'Pornography' LP by The Cure and Organized Crime Records put it out on vinyl. I never really planned to collect multiple copies of it, but that's often the case, but after the initial release of 800 blue vinyl copies the label made 200 white copies available, so I felt I should pick one up. And then after that they put up a few test pressings for sale, and of course I couldn't pass one up.
I think that psychologically it is a smart move for a label to release things in reverse order of rarity. If they'd all have launched at the same time I doubt I'd have bothered with the blue one. But there I was, sucked into trying to get one on RSD as it seemed hard to find. So I have ended up with three when probably one would have been ok. But now I have them I will probably keep them. I guess it helps that they all look nice and have different art work.
