I've read three books by Percival Everett over the past few days, all excellent.
Telephone was particularly good.

Top- Telephone
Middle- I Am Not Sidney Poitier

Screenshotted from the Reddit post below. I think I paid about £35 for my copy of the box, which is cheap even for the time.
I recall that the No Quarter vinyl box was very cheap as well. I hope this doesn't mean that this happened to the band twice.

Screenshot of a post from Blake Fleming of the band Laddio Bolocko.
To sum up, the label that released his music priced it incorrectly, meaning that thousands of dollars owed to the group in royalties could not be paid.

everybody’s jealous of me since I decided to get plastic surgery to have Cuttlefish skin. they‘re resentful because I camouflage myself as a brick wall or a gorseberry bush in order to steal their croissants off their plates at cafes. I’ve never felt so beautiful
