purge in conversation — and goddess knows there’s plenty of that — is ‘purge’ and purge when purge is written is ‘purge.xxx’. whaahh-psssh!
purge.xxx records are produced in limited quantities to a standard without parallel in the market of today, yesterday, tomorrow. this isn’t in the interests of scarcity: PR is a joke and surplus is sin and space evades us. we don’t re-press and we have neither the resources nor interest to compensate for the great mysteries of courier services, so we have to ship tracked & signed. this is why some of those costs look high, and higher still: until 2021 we straddled the line between the uk and the eu but this is obviously no longer possible. all of our operations will thus be moving to the eu over the course of the year. for this reason eu shipping has gone down and uk shipping has gone up. no other way. our payments system will soon switch entirely from £ to €. it’s also worth clarifying that not only do we not make money from shipping: we invariably lose money on it, if you’re considering packaging and time (we don’t). we charge the absolute minimum we can, appreciating how prohibitive these costs can be
