Adele Faces Criticism for Price of Her Vinyl Box Set: ‘Miss Ma’am, USD 350 In This Economy?’

by

As someone who has been following Adele since her early days, it’s disheartening to see the backlash she’s facing over the pricing of her Las Vegas residency vinyl set. I understand the financial burden that such an expensive item might impose on fans, but let me share a little bit of my perspective based on my life experiences.

Fans of Adele are expressing disappointment due to the high price tag of her exclusive Las Vegas residency vinyl collection priced at $349. The set, which comes with a photo book and some memorabilia from the show, has left fans dismayed as they find it expensive.

Despite much anticipation for the special edition vinyl sung by the artist who performed in Skyfall, many people were unwilling to justify its high cost, as most of her enthusiasts found it too expensive.

One fan of Adele expressed their strong desire for the vinyl box set, but lamented they couldn’t afford it. Another Twitter user humorously suggested that since Adele’s fiance is named Rich, it doesn’t automatically mean all her fans have deep pockets and asked her to consider reducing the price to $125.

One fan humorously suggested they needed a benefactor to afford the limited edition box, referring to themselves as such, while another fan asked, “Adele, madam, is it affordable at $350 in today’s economy?

One enthusiastic admirer commented that if Adele intends to charge such a high price for her merchandise, it would be fitting for her to devote the necessary time to individually autograph each package herself.

As stated on Adele’s official website, this vinyl box set offers a unique listening experience, showcasing her complete live performance from Las Vegas. The vinyl record lasts for two hours and encompasses songs from throughout her entire discography, including well-known tracks like Someone Like You, Rolling in the Deep, and Hello. Moreover, some of Adele’s memorable conversations with the audience during the show are also included on the disc.

The item is available for pre-order, with an estimated shipping date in early February 2025.

On Tuesday, November 27th, Adele shared a video teaser of her upcoming limited edition vinyl box set on Twitter. In the post’s caption, she explained that this special set will include all the songs from her live performances in Las Vegas, a photo album, and even some leftover confetti from the shows as a keepsake.

This week, Adele concluded her two-year stint as a resident performer in Las Vegas. In her final address, she expressed uncertainty about when she might feel ready to perform on stage once more.
