I was under the impression we'd be able to grab one of each color, at the most. Hmm. I'll have to look into that. 'Twould be a bummer, but I could live with just a copy on green.

No problem. Also; ++ I'm definitely digging the green a bit more, but I went ahead and grabbed both. I'm proud to be a merch-whore for this band.

Anyone who's subscribed to Deep Elm's mailing list: you (should) officially have a link to purchase this record, in your inbox, as of... two minutes ago. Just saying.

Flipping records is pretty neat. It gets you street cred.

I'm grateful it's happening, sure, but the whole "alright, March release! Okay, uhh, April release! ... May!--be?" scenario has gone stale. Shit happens. Last I heard, the test press had broken twice. When it gets released, I'll buy it. Not holding my breath until then.

I liked the S/T/W board before it became a gigantic eBay promotion. There was something admirable about shooting offers through PMs, and working out a fair trade before tossing the records up on eBay. But don't get me wrong. Get them shards! Weekend Bump! is equally cool.

Nope.

Those are some surprisingly affordable hookers. Proceed with caution.

Yeah, seriously. Such a disappointment. On a vaguely related note: what did you think of the concert? I had never seen Circa live, prior to lastnight. Anthony is one eccentric dude, but his presence and energy on stage is undeniably awesome.

On where, again?

Nice one, man. Sure beats the $150 fanclub version.

$51, complete with shipping. I went with a slightly better backing board, and there were a few cheaper, thinner frame options. You could probably do it for $40-$45. Thanks for the feedback, guys. If anyone hasn't picked up the poster and is considering doing so, I'd highly recommend going for it. It's a super-quality print, and like Nolan said... there's just no denying how beautiful the actual art and concept is. I know I wouldn't have sprung for a custom frame if the lithograph was mediocre looking.

So glad I took your suggestion. Frame arrived today; assembly was a breeze. Apologies for my phone's lacking quality. Perfect fit, and the price was right. Definitely going to be using them for future framing needs.

This is the part where jaws drop.

Looks like we already have a winner. By about six bucks, and with six hours to spare. Can't wait to see what some of the last-minute clutch bids will jump the price up to. Definitely the most I've seen the shards go for.

Because these are so rare and sold out within a matter of minutes I accidentally picked up two copies of the clear and white cross instead of a copy of each colour whilst rushing to check out. Yup.

Tony is indeed selling both. I haven't e-mailed him in a while, but I do see his account pop up on Xbox Live every few days. I'd say he's still alive.

Yessir.

Sounds fair enough to me. Anyone ordering more than two whites was likely in it just to flip, anyway. Distributing the goods from flippers to the deserving -- you're like the Robin Hood of vinyl, and I respect that.

I actually contacted that seller and asked what he was doing. Turns out he's just hoping to bank off some random eBayer's stupidity. He'll probably sell it before ASR runs out of their greens.

Look at this genius. Waited until his order arrived, then made a new eBay account. Dude's bulletproof!

this Whoops. My bad. Inconvenient post-sequence, on top of my beliefs that everyone on the internet is a comedian, all the time. Sorry for the mix-up... ...But I can't complain with the results. In other news, I am thoroughly impressed with how quickly this arrived. Via Fedex. In one piece. Still sort of suspicious that I may be dreaming. Beautiful release, Matt, as everyone's already said. Going to give it a spin after some food and a nap.

Think she is referencing the dog and the ridiculous amount of LP copies, actually.

Were these even sealed to begin with? Collectors and flippers alike get their panties in a bunch over whether or not the shrink-wrap is intact or broken on LPs. A lot of eBay listings I've read, for this release, have "NEW/SEALED" in the description. I can't say I've read confirmation from anyone, on the subject.

The putrid stench of flipper is almost unbearable in this thread. How many of those gold TDAGs did you pick up?
