Martin Simson's Destroyer of Death Debut Album - Crowdfundin

I posted this on CMR but I suspect some folks here will appreciate this as well! Check it out:

I agree with your assessment on price for a cd and shipping ($25 plus shipping is a little steep).  I would have expected $20 or $25 with shipping for the U.S. included in that price.  
But it seems like you spend more to do the campaigns then it would cost to just buy the cd once it's released.  However, you do run the risk of not getting it if you do that.  I might end up jumping on the campaign anyway (even though I swore off of them a few years ago).

You run a risk of not getting product even if you do crowdfunding campaigns.  I am approaching the three year mark with the upcoming Rose project.  I don't have much faith in it ever being released.

Yeah, his last updated had him (Randy) quite sick with a Covid relapse.  Praying he will get better, but it has been one problem after another for him on this album.  I think at one point he lost the recording tracks and had to start over.

If Marin would drop the price of just the regular CD to $15-20, I would consider helping him out.  At $25, I feel like the price is just too much.
