Same. It haunts me.

Mine just showed up with the mail today. Decent mailer, no damage that I can see to the jacket.

Seems to be 3 colors
 
Her store Forest green (seems to be the EU version as well)
US Retail Translucent Green
Target Red
 

Same here, hopefully they’re not the type that prints the label and sits on it for a week 😂

According to the bottom page, a thrice box set is coming!

Considering how Second City botched my order and how I have no idea when/if I'll ever get the Deluxe, I found it on Amazon and ordered today. The Pink/White Deluxe is $31.49:

“Geoff… this statement seems really fair and should go over well on social media.  Is there anything else we can do to maybe soften the sting for fans that feel they’ve been wronged?”
 
“🤔 Can we somehow post it in comic sans?”

This is a contender for the stupidest thing I have ever read. Are they really going to design an entire variant scheme, drop schedule and sneaky sales practice around the possibility that one person is going to spend 3 seconds of his personal time to post a for sale ad online, for an imaginary price that no one is even going to buy? If they really cared about that shit, they’d have pressed the entire run on “boring black.” Pressing nine variants of 300 each is probably making their so-called concern more of a reality. They’re trying to sucker fans into buying more than one copy directly from them as opposed to buying any secondhand. No one is going to fall victim to The Flipper on this record. It’s not fucking Ocean Avenue. 
Which reminds me, my yellow OA is for sale - $18,000.  Because it feels so right.

I have been listening to the album non-stop, and while enjoying it, I do find it quite the step down from "A Black Mile..." And I am SO frustrated I don't have the record in hand; still no update on my Second City Prints order--and I only ordered the new album! Wishing I had pre-ordered from a different vendor.

Really jealous of those of you who have the record in-hand. I was hoping my first listen would be on my turntable, but I caved and streamed it--fantastic!
 
My Second City Prints order sadly has no USPS update  since 4/26:

lol Thanks! I happen to be a collector as well, just not vinyl. I greatly value the details of what I collect, such as condition, editions, rarity, or even history/context. I guess that's why I want to do the research, to find the best option available 

Great question, and I wish I had a friend like you that put that much thought into buying me a gift! I'd also go with B or C, leaning towards C just because of the smaller quantity.

I believe it’s “Butter Miracle, Suite One” (which doesn’t exactly make any more sense, just noting it for the record) with Suite Two to follow and make up the whole “Butter Miracle” album. 

The Butter Miracle picture they have shared is grade A nightmare fuel and one of the worst things I’ve ever seen (if I was braver I would post it, but I’m not so I won’t), but the new song is pretty good, if you like Somewhere Over Wonderland (I did) and the Rolling Stone description of Suite One sounds pretty intriguing. 
 

was fortunate enough to listen to an advance vinyl copy tonight. can confirm both standard light blue and indie “pink shimmer” are on schedule. early front runner for album of the year.

I've been confused by everything with this band so far. par for the course.

Will there be a US link though? Isn’t this exclusive to that specific store? I too wanna snag this but being in US like you said way too expensive. Wonder if we combine forces, would bring down shipping? 

Won't be in the US AFAIK, it is a Blood Records press and I have not known of a US distributer in the past.

ugg, this record kind of sucks.
 

I ordered Send Us A Signal and Death & Taxes, and they arrived really fast. Send Us A Signal appears to be the Kickstarter pressing and sounds excellent. Death & Taxes looks beautiful and sounds WAY LOUD. I have to trim 4db off my pre-amp for it to not sound over-modulated. With that adjustment, it does sound good, but surprised me as I haven't run into this much.

Agreed, it was a good show and it sounded great.
 
The two new album tracks that stood out to me other than the previously released ones were Ceiling Granny and Pat Stains. Those were my favourites.
