Those US pressings from that time are really nice records. The MC5 - Back in the USA I had was a great sounding pressing with a decent thick as fuck cover. Sold it for nowhere near what it was worth but whatever.....
I had standard NZ pressings of the Velvets albums awhile back. The recent colour vinyl re-issues are well worth your time. I stopped being anal about pressings after awhile. A bunch of the re-issues are even better than the originals. Sundazed brings out a lot of cool re-issues on 180g vinyl (MC5, Stooges, Byrds, The Sonics). I dig how Dischord still brings out a bunch of vinyl still.... you'll have to pick up all the Fugazi albums!
But yeh keep trawling the junk and second hand stores you'll be suprised what turns up for next to nothing.
