should be seeing some info pop up on "power of failing" soon.

Version 2 arrived this morning, nice and speedy international service, peanut swag and all! Great stuff.

In the UK you're damn right. Every distro I use such as BigScaryMonsters (via AwesomeDistro), BanquetRecords, MonkeyBoyRecords to name a few, for £3-3.50 GBP you get next day delivery, or 1-2 days maximum. TSR-UK via SilverBullet charge £4.75 and it's just sent via the same method, i.e. Royal Mail UK, which for a standard package is 1-2days, most often 1.
 
You gotta remember we pay more for our postage here, we don't have a "media mail" option, and the USA is obviously a lot bigger hence why you may be used to longer delivery times.
 
I often can't fathom why most people in the US complain about postage prices, this may be a reversal in how you can't fathom why an 8 day turn-around is an issue for me As I stated, I can get the US variants, from the TSR store in the same time it takes the UK store to get it to me... That is an issue, and I may as well just use the US store.

Things could be worse. You could be the guy bidding $150+ on the bundle on Ebay and have a defective Act III inside. Which no one will exchange...

Packing peanut swag

I mean; "I cant wait for it to arrive tomorrow and be in perfect condition AND be packed with bonus swag untold of".

I just pour draino on mine.

I didn't know about the pitch setting on my first table which I bought second hand. I threw on one of my favourite records and it just sounded different (slower but not out of place slow), so I thought... this sounds different from the CD, they must've mixed it slower for the vinyl release!

Thousands of pre-orders from a new label, I woulda printed labels a month in advance just because that's how long it would have taken to get them packed up. They aren't Amazon

Yep, Six Nations for sure. Might be a sore subject since 10 of us going are Welsh and the other 10 are English :/

I can hardly listen to Act III. Just rubs me the wrong way.
 
Act II, Act I, Act III for me.

Company Ink man (forgive my ignorance I don't know your name, drunk Scottish-man here). Spun this release so many times, this is my goto drunken vinyl. Hat's off to you, keep doing what you're doing!

Trust me bud, it's worth it. I spin both albums all the time.

They got them in today. The woman I spoke with said they'll all be out within the week.
The artwork looks like it was done by a teenage girl with a smartphone trying to be deep.
That being said, I bought the 180 gram bundle, too.

At least this idiot is upfront about it. 90% of discogs prices are insanely wack and if you contact them asking to deal they all say the same thing his description says. "Look I know this record is worth $60 but I love it so I don't want to sell it, but I'm listing it at $500 because if someone wants to pay that, then that's cool."
 
Those people should fuck off. /rant.

those covers are so terrible. this cracked me up though.
 

Fuck. Ordered the 180g bundle.

The first post was so good that I can't wait for the sequel.

I can't believe I dropped that money
 
I don't REGRET it, but man am I in a financial bind now. Lol

...bought it. 
dammit i hate you kess.
 

Well considering that two dozen labels put money towards this I imagine each label will want copies. Also if it sold out quickly then money would have to be gathered from all the labels again which would be a hassle.
