An LP usually is $15-$20 if not more, and it sounds like you get one every 3 months, plus a 7 inch and a t shirt. I believe the vinyls aren't things that people can just buy, and you can easily get your money back on ebay if there is an odd chance that you don't like it. Sounds like a win/win to a Jack White fan any day. I feel the $60 for three months isn’t too much.

So even if the vinyls aren't dead weather/raconteurs/white stripes, they're still going to be worth more than $60 The set of Blue series vinyls went for $850 on ebay, all by unknown artists signed to Third man.

My thinking about this was all wrong, I should consider this a partial Rob Jones sub, which is more than reasonable at 240 a year for four shirts four vinyls, goodies, 7"s, and whatnot wonders.

I think whether or not you like the price depends on how much you like this record label. I think I read that the "Platinum Subscription" also gets you an exclusive Mono LP version of "Icky Thump". Thought I read that somewhere but can't seem to locate my sources now. Good points all. I think whether or not you like the price depends on how much you like this record label.

I don't know why one would, but for the sake of argument. It doesn't say you'll get White Stripes or Dead Weather or Racontuers vinyls each month, it says you'll get third man records releases, and if jack white isn't involved in the band(mostly likely case) the likely re-sale value is ppphhththfhthththtttt. I think it's crazy to charge 240 dollars a year to be in a fanclub, but for me, Mr tuesday negative guy, it's just more proof that the only purpose to Jack White's existence is to hawk pricey "collector" items to overpaid people in their thirties so that they can still feel cool. i’ll get on the negative bandwagon and say this deal sucks, especially if you’re considering the aftermarket.

An LP nowadays goes for $15. And a 7-inch single if it's priced economically is $5. That brings you up to $40. Add in shipping, and you're talking another $5-10, depending on how it's sent (media mail vs. priority mail). Plus you get a bunch of online content, which if you are fanatical about this music/label, makes it worth it. The only thing that raised an eyebrow were the pay per view live concerts. To me, that should be a part of at least one of the packages. But otherwise, if you are a fan, this is a pretty reasonable deal. Let’s break this down:

What other sub series is that expensive? This is rotten. $60 is insanely expensive for a 7″, 12″ a a t-shirt. $240 for a year? What other sub series is that expensive? This is rotten.
