So I have a decent collection of vinyls, and only have 2 from my favourite band (Heathen Chemistry and The Masterplan). Everywhere i go, i check out the local record shops to see if they have any Oasis, and of course its the same answer every time. I also have looked online and most of them go from $40.00-$200.00, and noting that Morning Glory, Deffintely Maybe and Be Here Now are never less than $100. Why are those not in regular production like other albums considering how popular they still are.
Thank you
I did not find the right solution from the internet

I think these days the easiest and cheapest way to get the first 3 albums on vinyl is get the chasing the sun remasters. You can get them on Amazon for around £25 each. I Managed the get all of the 2009 reissues and i'm pretty happy with them but I haven't heard the recent remasters on vinyl so i can't comment on them.
If your ok with reissues, as opposed to original releases, all Oasis albums are in print and available on Amazon.co.uk for between £20 and £40. If you’re in the US, try www.bullmoose.com, all albums are available for between $23 and $34.
As far as the 2009 reissues go, they will not come cheap, and they don’t really sound any different to the 2014-2017 reissues. The ‘09 reissues also have slightly modified artwork, whereas the recent ones, barring the chasing the sun versions, are more faithful to the originals. Also, for what it’s worth, the 2016 version of HC is the only vinyl version to feature the hidden track, The Cage.
I will say that, at least in my opinion, the original releases sound better than the reissues. Especially for DM, MG, and BHN, but you are right about the prices being ridiculous.
If I had some gum, I'd chew a hole into the sun...
Random aside to the main topic- I stumbled across this clip filmed at the Vinyl Factory, where the 2014 reissue of Definitely Maybe was pressed.
Shot on grainy 16mm and scanned in 4K (which seems a bit OTT for 16mm. The remastered promo for D'you Know What I mean? was scanned at 2K, and that was shot on higher quality 35mm stock).
I guess. I mean everything is technically still in print atm. So it's not that weird. I'd really like to see a singles set of 7"s rather than the albums.

7" or 12" sets would be great to have. I have all the 2009 vinyls and they sound fine to me. Chasing the Sun remasters are also still in print on vinyl, so i don't see them doing anything new soon.
Original UK vinyl is an expensive, but Best sounding... I don't wanna buy same album anymore, but I'd like to listen to my favorite album in best sounding.
