Expensive shipping.

I live in Michigan and have never dealt with customs.   Will try to call DPD but seems like Ochre needs to follow-up.

Did they say why it's being held in customs?

So if they ask a customer based in the US to call DPD which is in the UK, wouldn't the call be expensive and should Ochre do that for the customer?

Anyone else still waiting on their OBI's?

Is there definitive proof whether this is a boot or not?

i guess ultimately time will tell but i'm curious what prompted you to think this!

i feel like Rocket was criticized, especially among more longstanding fans, for indulging too much in "country" stylings and for meandering a lot in the arrangements. this one feels way more forceful and cohesive of a statement, and more of a synthesis of his older stuff standards with his newer experimental direction towards country & heavy electronica. but maybe you have a different perspective.

I agree, I thought Rocket was divisive when it can out due to the different styles/experimentation within that album. 

OBI's not adding to cart?

Hahahaha. Really? 

 

5-6 months.

LOL. So when they say ships in 12 weeks, not likely I guess. 

How long did the yellow Flower Boy take to ship?

Yeah the novelty will be dead by the time it ships.

Is it still a novelty if it's actually a good song?

Did anyone's Kate Bush order get fulfilled?

Any leads on the Robyn LP? Figured it would be available again since it was labeled as an “RSD First release”.

No more leads on the Crow?

My Amazon order was canceled and now it's $150 on Amazon.

What day/time did you place your order?

So the insurance company bases the pricing of the collection based on what the items are selling for on Discogs, as opposed to what the original purchase price was?

Doesn't say anything about them being numbered?

I would assume the Thrice EP should be available later on for a reasonable price with 4,000 copies? 

What's the link?

Received mine from FYE last week

Where do they ship from, East coast?

There's probably going to be a bunch variants for this. 

Why isn’t Akira Yamaoka credited as the composer?

No, 2500 on clear vinyl with 500 of them numbered and limited with the obi & scratch card from the bands site

Where does it say 2,500 on clear vinyl?

I'm confused. Are there two versions limited to 500? One with the OBI strip and the indie version, without OBI?

Are the Moonshake releases official pressings?

Pink Floyd - the Wall and Abbey Road are 50% off.
