Mondo48Mo

We are working to have subdivisions on our website. When we built this one, it didn't allow for it, but we have someone working on it now as we speak (it'll be split by category - MUSIC, and then sub division - MONDO, DEATH WALTZ, SELECTS, etc.)

That looks amazing! We haven't even received our copies. Jealous!

I'm really sorry you still haven't received your GOTG. I promise it's not intentional. We were intentionally vague about shipping times because we were concerned about the problem we are having, which is that some of the screen printed jackets arrived in less than stellar condition. We had some reprinted and we are going to send the final wave of orders out as soon as they arrive from being scored and glued. I'm sorry you've had to wait so long, but I promise it's not because we forgot!

Hey man, i'm really sorry if this sent the wrong message. We have a few "damaged" copies of Guardians that we are going to put in the pop up shop... we are waiting on replacement jackets for the ones that we want to send to customers as mint condition. I promise you we aren't sitting on stuff we aren't sending to customers. Please send me a message if you want to discuss further.

There are some photos of the discs on the website (on the product page) It wasn't intended to be a surprise, but timing was not in our favor on that release.

Holy shit, that is so rad. Let's be honest, It would probably need to be more than single disc releases, but the effect would be the same.

Twin Peaks is still happening, I promise. As soon as I have a date I will come on here and let you all know

Send us an e-mail. We can replace your jacket. Might take a few weeks, but we can help you out.

sure! when it comes to print, there are always minimums. You find it sometimes with screen printing posters, since you have to justify the creation of the screens, but with offset printing it is near impossible to find anyone who doesn't have a print minimum of at least 500. Now, that doesn't mean you can't order 200, or 100, or even 50 from a printer... but you are still paying for 500 - it just goes into your cost per unit. Does that make sense? So even the slightest change to art makes it a new file that carries a new minimum. And new set up fees. It's just never made sense to us to do alternate print for a variant version... except for "Version B" records, of which we typically do a run of 1,000. And for those we usually* do COMPLETELY different art.

Hoping to start shipping everything from that drop next week. Underline the word hopefully. I don't want to write checks if my shipping team can't cash (they are trying to get the first wave of Guardians out as fast as possible first)

No, not a Pre Order. I'll get some photos up of it soon. I just didn't have a physical copy of everything to photograph before we dropped them. They are pressed and arriving to us next week. They should begin shipping next week, along with all of the DW stuff.

Also this year hopefully Without going into too much detail, the test pressing process has been a bit arduous on that one. Once we have those approved, we'll get it on the official release calendar.

Yeah, definitely. It's going to be a long process as we sold quite a few. We are trying to do it in order, so the people who bought them on our old site are being taken care of first. I don't want to lock us into a firm timeline, but if you ordered in the first two weeks or so, you should be getting shipping notification soon.

Believe it or not, having slightly different artwork is wildly more expensive than changing disc colors. DeskCop was onto something about the barcodes, except that oddly only happened on the Batman Die-Cut record by accident, and that one was sold by color preference anyway so it didn't matter haha.

I love the new headline of this thread. I had never realized Spencer was openly advertising Twin Peaks on all of his past releases (just got his backstock in from the UK and saw it for the first time on the Halloween III Deluxe Re-Issue) Since it's not a reveal, I can assure you Twin Peaks is still happening. It's on the calendar for this year, but I'll let Spencer be the one to give the official announce date when he have that locked.

I can tell you with authority there is no way to tell on 95% of the records, from the outside, whether it is a regular or a variant. Trips us up sometimes too... this is an informal apology to anyone I promised a Variant to and accidentally sent a regular

Truthfully, I think the plan will be to put Black vinyl into indie retail more regularly and make the site exclusive for the fun color way stuff. Don't hold me to that, but that seems to be the way to give everyone what they want.

Yeah, it's always more complicated than everyone assumes. Working in this industry gives me a ton of respect (that is unfairly not given) to SRC and similar Indies. People are quick to shit on all high price points, but trust me when I say that if possible EVERY label would go cheaper. These are all passion projects, from people who just want to give a fair treatment to their favorite records. That said, I get it when people are frustrated.

We're trying something new on this one, and a few targeted releases this year. There will be a few releases that come out this year that were already in production before this new initiative, so don't expect any uniformity any time soon... however, part of the transition of Spencer Hickman coming on as label manager is to address some concerns between both labels and come up with solutions that make both casual fans & collectors happy at the same time.

Don't worry. This isn't the new standard. We sometimes have to flex pricing based on a variety of criteria. Unfortunately, this record is a little bit more expensive to produce than we'd normally prefer it to be.

We probably can, after the Guardians arrives sometime in January.

That makes sense. We're still hammering out all of the fine-tuning on our backend for the new site. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

We don't have them at the Gallery for pick up. Order one online, and send me an e-mail [email protected], and I can mark it for Gallery pick up. We can have them avail for as early as tomorrow, and we will refund your postage upon pick up

Not this time. It wasn't too many, and we will be reaching out to those individuals and requesting funds before shipping them out.

our backend says there is one left in inventory, and there has been for almost 25 minutes. don't know what's up with that. it should boot something from your cart automatically after a few minutes.
