Sad Heart Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 My blob came in the other day. I had an image in my mine ever since I head '8 panel' on that podcast, and I was right, but damn it's so much cooler in person. This whole release is just so spot on: remaster, variant selection, packaging, sound quality, price point. I don't know how DW manages to get away with, but I applaud them. This might be one of my favorite releases this year. @jhulud shipping on the EU pressing was surprisingly fast on your end. My friend who lives in Spain ordered that one and got hers in today as well. The blob and the EU black/red look really good side by side. Each one makes the other one prettier which is awesome. Now take your shrink off. ; ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Yeah. I gotta take the shrink off all of them. Just opened 'em up to get a group shot quickly. Here's the gang. Missing the Newbury Comics version (missed out on it), the black with white splatter repress (pondering on ordering it), and the clear (wasn't quick or lucky enough in ordering).

ejc625 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Stickers off --> if able to reuse sticker, transfer to clear poly sleeve (in same spot) --> open record --> drop needle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kilahda Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Best thing to come home to after seeing Converge live just couple days ago? Have a note saying ya got You Fail Me mail from Throatruiner and when finally able to pick it up, discover two copies -one being the clear one. My favorite Converge record so I'm freaking stoked and it's a keeper for sure. They have the black with white splatter on the tour. throughbeingcruel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be in the same situation as me. Mine shipped on 6/9. got scanned in NJ on 6/11. ( I am in Buffalo) and the estimated delivery STILL says 6/17. USPS is hell, i had to wait till today for them to even open a case. so just check your tracking if it hasnt moved give usps a call sit on hold for a hour and than they will open a case.

Actually just got it today funny enough. I never received shipping conf. Unfortunately, mine has a massive dent in the upper left corner of the sleeve, and the vinyl is slightly warped. Wonder what I can do/if anything about getting a replacement sleeve, especially from KRM EU, probably nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All media mail packages have tracking. Whether KRM keeps track of them or will tell you is a different story. But if you log in to my.usps.com you should be able to see everything that's headed your way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throughbeingcruel Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 That's weird, I live in a pretty rural area and it works flawlessly for me. My local postal workers (all three of them) had no clue about the app until I showed them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it does sometime soon though, be real nice to know when everything is arriving (especially when it's really sunny out). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewillisisdead Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Since I live with my girlfriend and she uses the my USPS app she always knows when I'm getting records in the mail. It's useful app but also when like 6 months of preorders come in the same week it requires some explaining. hallowken78 and gazzo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffalo716tapes Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 shout out to Caleb! my record still hasn't moved since the 9th and he is getting me a new one sent out today. Thanks for the help for the user's that gave me advice !! Did not know i could use an app for the myUSPS so that is cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cemeterytapes Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Contacted KRM today and they said they opened a case with USPS but that they could not provide tracking or proof of delivery. They asked me if I wanted a refund or a replacement so I asked for a replacement red/black (which is what I originally ordered) so we'll see if they're able to do that.
