I Know It's a Long Shot...

...but does anyone have a copy of Equal Strain on All Parts (vinyl) they'd be willing to sell? Like, if you ordered an extra you didn't need? I don't have one and don't need one, but a friend is trying to find one for her dad for Christmas. He's who introduced her to Buffett, and she had the idea very late in the game, and thus the only copies out there are on eBay for hundreds of dollars. Anyone?

(I'm not really expecting a response in the positive. I mean, I get it. But just in case...)

What an amazing gift idea....we only have one that we plan to mount in some type of frame.

What a thoughtful daughter! And you are a good friend to step up ans help her! Can I assume she doesn't have any actual record stores nearby?
I wish I had an extra to help her out, but I don't.
Just curious, is there a reason she needs the vinyl? The CDs are available at many major retailers, if not in the actual stores they can be ordered online.

Will keep my eye out shopping.

Good plan.

Aw, thanks. I'll run the record store idea by her. And I think just vinyl for, you know, the asthetics of it? Plus, Gen X child with older dad, so the nostalgia factor? A CD as a back up isn't a bad plan, though. Thanks for the ideas.

I figured it might have been something like that...
I hope she finds one.

This was just posted in the BN Facebook group (by one of our own):

Elusive Disc has the Indie blue swirl edition of Equal Strain in stock right now for those of you still looking for that.

Hope you see this in time to snag one!

Aw, thanks, folks!

Both sites say "backordered", but who knows? Might come in by then? Might take a shot or at least pass it on to her.

Thanks!

I ordered two (I don't really need/want one, but I figure an extra can't hurt) from merchbar. Backordered but supposed to ship sometime. I'm sure it won't be here in time for Christmas, but that's ok. She was happy with it.

It seems many items have shipping earlier than the promised date... fingers crossed this is true in your case too!!
