Good point, but ultimately didn't do it. After shipping (which surprisingly wasn't astronomical as it usually is to Canada) and currency conversion, it was well over $600 CAD. The FOMO is real though.

Damn, if I didn't already have all the OG's I'd be all over this. I'm hoping Landscape Tantrums gets a separate release.

Probably best to call around your local record stores (pretty sure Phonopolis usually carries CST stuff). The good thing with CST is that their pressings usually never go out of print, so there's really no point in rushing to pre-order, especially in Canada.

Damn those look nice

March bump - updated

OOS already, repressing planned for late summer. Didn't realize there were that many HSR fans left!

Secretly Society has a member-only yellow and purple splatter clear variant: https://www.secretlystore.com/sweep-it-into-space-dinosaur-jr

Weird comparison.

Whew thought I missed out, managed to get a signed copy ($50 CDN + shipping in Canada).

February bump - updated

I'm in Canada and after factoring shipping and currency conversion, it was actually cheaper for me to order from Europe than TRL.

Temporary Residence has a /1000 Crystal Vellum with Metallic Silver Streaks variant: https://www.temporaryresidence.com/products/trr363?variant=38499317973161 Pelagic has a couple variants of 350: https://pelagic-records.com/product/mono-beyond-the-past-live-in-london-with-the-platinum-anniversary-orchestra-3lp/ There's also a Chinese /500 edition Grey with black and white splatter: http://newnoise.cn/goods/948

Whether you agree with the price or not, it unsurprisingly sold out pretty much instantly anyway. I decided to pass, but can see why people would jump all over it. They were selling /10 test presses of Crisis for RSD last year for $200.

This is the explanation they put in the email announcing this: "Here’s a little story of how these came to be…A year ago we found ourselves leaving for a handful of tour dates in Western Canada. As we were packing our bags and shipping gear, we still hadn’t received the shipment of “Season of the Flood” 10” vinyl. We were worried the delay would mean they wouldn’t make the first few shows. We ordered a rush of 100 test presses - just in case. In the end, the original vinyl made it to the first show and we went on to put the 100 test copies on a shelf in the warehouse. It’s a year later and we thought it’s the perfect time to have them see the light of day."

Test pressings going up tomorrow at 10am EST: https://www.dinealonestore.com/collections/alexisonfire/products/alexisonfire-season-of-the-flood-test-pressing-10in

December bump - updated

I hate how KT8 doesn't have local pickup. $9.51 CAD to ship within Toronto. 😒

Weird, it showed $29.99 USD for "standard international shipping" as the only option for me. Also $11 USD to ship just the Toronto sticker lol

$30 USD to ship purple Ten to Canada. 😂

Ouch, yeah I got dinged like $25 duty for the Avengers box set - crazy. I really wish the new NAFTA (CUSMA) agreement had a higher de minmis threshold for us, but not really: https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/publications/cn-ad/cn20-18-eng.html
