Can we start a new thread when they roll out the reissues so I don’t have to keep checking this every time someone whines about variants?
Whining about other people whining, now that’s the internet.

The number on the hype stickers vs. the one on the website thing was seriously just explained on this same page. The website is the correct one.
We might have different definitions of “explained”, but I also don’t think that means they didn’t oversell.

Super annoying. I get that mistakes do occasionally happen but it’s odd to me that more than 1 person got the wrong variant, too. It’s not like they haven’t been doing this whole vinyl mailorder thing for 30 years now.
Suspect the hype sticker saying 150, while website says 199 - means there are 48 other people feeling my pain. They probably oversold.

So they just refunded you altogether? That’s some trash, if so.
I know it’s not what you paid for, especially since the /200 was more expensive, but I thought the cloudy variant turned out so nice. (The blue especially is a much closer fit to the album art than any of the other variants – I opted for it over everything else and I’ve got no regrets.) But I can’t believe Relapse wouldn’t let you keep it… or that they won’t send it back to you – on top of a partial refund – after admitting they oversold your intended variant.
No refund either, I’ve had two different support folks with different results. I’m just out the money, with no record. And now support is closed.
The cloudy splatter is always a reliable option, I’ll admit. Didn’t find out they were out of the /200 until I sent the cloudy back to them (they got it today). Really hope they can at least send the cloudy back to me, but at this rate they won’t reply for at least another day or two. Who knows what the warehouse will do with the cloudy in that time…

They sent me reply today that I can keep the cloudy at 20% discount or ship back for full refund. I feel even worse for you mate. That’s utter bullshit.
Support has been impossible to work with. They reply only once a day at most, in the last hour of their day. Gutted over this.

Site says /199 but hype sticker says /150.
They totally oversold the /199. Relapse replied to me asking me to send the Cloudy back. Then emailed me after they received it to tell me - they have no more of the /199. So now I have NO record. Fuck Relapse for this.

Had a hunch this was a larger problem. Try your luck at [email protected]. My initial attempts went to [email protected], which got no reply. Still unclear if they have any of the /199 left to swap.
Good luck, innuendo out the other.

I did (I went a little variant-crazy with this one). If it makes you feel any better, as usual w a lot of Relapse releases there's quite a difference between mock-up and reality, and the more colors the more of a mess it is.
I do feel slightly better, but from what I’ve seen the reality looks way better than the red/blue cloudy. Holding out hope Relapse has a handful left.
Edit: I guess not better, just feel like this cloudy splatter stuff is played out.
-
Anyone that bought the /199 Relapse exclusive - did you actually get that variant? They sent me a red/blue instead, wondering if it’s just my luck or a larger mistake. Still no response from Relapse.

Ordered the /199 splatter from Relapse, but got the red/blue cloudy effect instead. Sadness.

With both this and 'Love Is Worth it' now shipping in October, I'm hoping I can combine orders.
Good luck, I’ve never been able to convince MerchNow to merge orders.

Not that I want more variants to choose from, but I wish they had saved a few of the Waiting colors for Full Collapse.

I made this thread while driving in my car. I copy and pasted what the band posted on Facebook.
I feel like both sides of this argument are making the exact same points. But damn does this speak volumes about priorities and level of effort.
Meat - thanks for the copy/paste. But thank you Derek for posting the mockups.

I wish that variant was real cause it’s rad. Haha.
Wouldn’t matter at all how noisy it was. I’d make a backlit display for it.

This band really goes out of its way for its fans not to own their music but rather wants them to spend $55 on a goddamn tshirt.

Picked up my copies from the Glass House last night. Pretty cool box but my only complaint (besides what I paid) is that the little door that slides up and down to remove the records is like 1/8” too small so the door keeps popping out of the railing.
Same, thought I somehow loosened the railing trying to pry it outta the package. On par for a GJ release - something’s gotta be loose. Makes for a pleasing display though, and live record sounds decent.

Costly indulgence, but grabbed the keyline too. Weird to choose between more art, and more colors.
