mdussack Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I got notification a few days ago, but it doesn't look like it's been picked up/dropped off. Weird. I got a shipping notification today and it's already left the post office Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Weird. I got a shipping notification today and it's already left the post office That is odd. Oh well, I'm not in any rush for this. Mainly something that I really wanted as part of my collection at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesewoodenideas Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Mine arrived in the post two days ago. Gave the whole thing a spin last night. Good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgoodtobefree Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Getting nervous since tracking hasn't updated ever since it departed the original post office three days ago. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeardedSteven Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Mine arrived last Friday from Merge. Great shape. Great package. Great sound. Normally double 10" "LPs" drive me crazy but I really like this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spilled milk Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 We got ours in the mail. Preordered first day and didn't get sent the color vinyl preorder Package looks great though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you order from Merge? If so, you should have definitely got the colored version. I'd contact them. Anyway, mine came and there's something lodged in the vinyl on one side of the discs that makes Long Forgotten Fairytale unplayable. I've contacted Merge to see if they can replace it. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Been listening this slowly throughout the day and I'm happy with it. I have to admit that I find it a bit exhausting listening to this whole thing in one day though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknown pleasures Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 They used a cover of "The Book of Love" tonight on South Park. Not just any cover, either. The Gabriel version... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyCoon Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 According to a friend who owns a record store, the Merge rep told him that this is definitely the last repress of this album. Due primarily to how difficult it was over the last two years (!) to negotiate this reissue, in addition to insistence from Merritt that it's not going to happen again. I know that many of us wondered how it could take so long for Merge to sell out all 1,000 copies, but it sounds like the preorders came in at such a quick clip that they decided to print 4,000 instead. Though I'm not sure if all of those are color vinyl sets or not. In any case, my set looks and sounds fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
