corey.

I know most people here are members, but I have a copy of the dirty projectors Essentials January ROTM still sealed for 35 shipped if someone wants it.

The main issue with this is having customers with no shipping experience sending these fragile pizza boxes/records all over the globe that would inevitably lead to damages and more problems. Also it was said that the plant mixed up the pressing numbers I believe.

Oh gotcha, that makes sense and is more fair/reasonable haha.

300-ish copies of the split were sold. 100 of the yellow are available. That's only 1/3 of the customers. But also - they all already own a copy of this, so giving specifically 1/3 of the 300 orders a chance to re-buy a second copy privately seems unreasonable as hell lol. *Coming from someone who bought the split thinking it was /100 but not up in arms about it

Yes, since you asked, I would have addressed this situation as soon as I knew about it and would have updated anyone who had ordered - can't speak on behalf of this situation or how soon they found out though cause I wasn't behind the scenes on this. It seemed like it was after the pre-orders went live. My comment above was more so saying that regardless of the variant numbers, this release RULES. It was extremely well done and as a fan I'm happy to own it, so I was agreeing with the person who would be happy to own any copy / making a joke at the complaints because people will still want to keep this release regardless of the pressing numbers because it's awesome. And sold out. I just don't see a huge issue in the numbers on a smaller pressing like this, at the end of the day, if someone got the copy they ordered in the first place. And I personally go after the variants I think will look best, not the rarest, but that's just me. But again, as a label, I would have address this situation as soon as I had the info, but mistakes like these do happen that are completely out of anyone's control unfortunately and can be noticed too late.

lol for real. plus the split looks way better than the splatter

Also, there's other variants of both Allister and Home Grown via Victory Records (the label that repressed them is Mutant League) I got a sweet starburst variant of Home Grown earlier this week too: https://www.victorymerch.com/merch/vinyl/13782/home-grown-kings-of-pop-vinyl

The DTR Exclusives are kind of mysterious though not gonna lie haha

It's available here: https://www.merchhq.com/product-page/allister-last-stop-suburbia-vinyl I actually just ordered one earlier this week haha.

Messaged

This isn't my copy but I don't think it is on it

Here's a pic of the acid rap vinyl:

Have you been following the reddit VMP? It's basically been a shit show for the last 2 months since they migrated to a new website. Lots of changes, some are glitches, some aren't. A lot of things are limited, like only being able to swap once and you're locked in. ROTM's being available to the public. The list goes on tbh haha, not to mention their mail order has been super backed up as well as people receiving multiple copies of records on accident or the wrong ones (like, a lot of people, including myself) Anyway, I hope they fix some things soon. Supposedly the swap limitations atm are potentially temporary, for whatever that's worth haha

Gonna PM you

This packaging is really well done. They shrink wrapped the pizza boxes which looked odd for a pizza box haha, but a nice touch. My vinyl avoided seam splits inside the box fortunately. The wax color matches the artwork super well, I ended up getting the half and half, it's more of an orange-ish yellow than a straight yellow. The track list printing on the back (bottom) of the pizza box and hand numbered is cool too. And the vinyl is in a gatefold, not a wide spine. All around I gotta say this is an A+

The other genres have been sold out for the last month basically. Cool you were able to get in for the RHH, I was a RHH member and tried to switch last month's ROTM (too late) and ended up swapping to Essentials and have been stuck with it haha.

I saw that, I assumed you meant they were available from other retailers 5 weeks prior to this post, but I gotcha. Looking for a US release / some sort of legit info on this press

Available where?

Prices are steep but curious to see what a US store is gonna charge.

I slept on getting a copy of either press of this forever, and recently decided I wanted it. If someone wants to sell one for a fair-ish price lemme know!

Although I prefer the red variant, I noticed they put up a picture disc a couple days after I ordered mine Edit: Looks like the autographed vinyl, tape, etc + the picture disc (which is also autographed) is sold out actually, but the red variant is available unsigned

I had the same feeling. I bought one off someone for almost 3x the price it sold haha, and am worried they're gonna do a retail press on this exact same color.. I feel like they'll have to do some sort of mass pressing for this.

That looks amazing. Can't wait to get mine

Bummer, it was sold out when I grabbed the splatter.

Missed out on the half and half waiting on the shipping adjustment, but glad to own any copy of this!
