The thing about shipping costs are that they are not the same for everyone. A store or record company often has a corporate account, so shipping a package costs much less that for the normal person shipping a package. I have had packages from Powell's books in Portland that were heavier and a fraction of the cost, for example. At any rate, my original comment was commiserating with a wish that the band was still on Profound Lore. Shipping costs are one of the reasons for that. I have already placed my order and paid the shipping. My buddy and I order together to try to save on some shipping costs, and many times the price difference between 1 copy and 2 is only a small increase. That's not the case with the bigcartel sites from my experience. Lastly, the downvote thing was meant as a sarcastic, nostagic, playful jab. Seems like your yelp comment is just meant to bait, and I won't take part in any further back and forth with insults.

It's not normal for a 3 lb package from Portland to Ontario to cost $39. I have seen multiple websites calculate shipping differently and it has been much less. But that isn't the point. I didn't say anything blaming the band for the cost. I agreed with a statement wishing the band was still on Profound Lore, which is the same city that I am in, and so I would not need to pay ANY shipping. Not to mention, none of the limited variants will be showing up at my local store. How about you think a minute before calling someone stupid for an offhand comment? Damn I miss the downvote button.

Not to mention the shipping cost to Canada and Int'l. I threw up in my mouth before I hit 'checkout'.

Pink Haze and test press sold out now too

yeah, I snagged it too, test press looks cool too, but out of 50? just a different variant, not really a test, no? That game set is soooo gimmicky, but I want it. Too pricey for me.

And just like that the purple and lime /100 is sold out

Loving that new song

Yes, you get me

Well, that was a dismal exchange. Great to catch up on the thread. I see I've missed nothing. edit: 1000th post, woohoo!

Except that the bloodshot eye doesn't come with the resealable bag and the 20 pg booklet. I think it deserved that treatment.

Bloodshot eye should have been part of the 'Special edition' instead of that pic disc. Totally would have grabbed that over pinwheel

edit: nevermind, too slow. redundant sloth is sad

It's a really good thing that I wasn't depending on the email from the band's mailing list, WHICH I JUST GOT AT 11 AM to tell me about the pre-order

Pinwheel, pinwheel spinning around. . .

Nothing matters. ...nothing,

There's nothing I can do about any of this

10:02 - still nothing?

Dude! You read my future. Just found this thread (and band).

2nd press is up for anyone who missed out first round like me

The Cinnamon Red doesn't sound great, as was my experience with their Rainbow Pale Horses. I'm rolling the dice with the Orange this time, but I probably should have just gone with the black for better sound quality.

They've added copies of CFUTF (and Brother, Sister -if it had been sold out?) to they US webstore - jump on them if you missed out before.

Got my red but I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet - looks fabulous, hopefully the sound is alright.

This would have been amazing in an alternate reality where they hadn't just price-gouged the fuck out of Fantastic Planet

Nick told me this a.m. that mine will ship Monday *yay* :)

I’ve converted. I greet death openly
