Has anyone been able to get an order through? I keep getting a message about an issue with their payments.

This time you can only order 4 total music products. So if you're trying to buy all 8 variants you will need to enter a different email for your second order.

Those die cut jackets look great.

Shitty. Same for Timewarp Records in LA. Magically they have the B.I.G box set and Bill Evans on their Discogs page at 50% markup.  The RSD “pledge” has no teeth, apparently.

Actually, the pledge has teeth if you want to bite them. Stores that get caught are banned from ordering product for the next event. Would be especially easy to report Timewarp since those morons link directly from the recordstoreday.com page to their own discogs page where they are price gouging. But my personal favorite way to enforce the rules is to order the Notorious BIG box set and pay the $300. Then when it arrives email them and tell them you just realized they were a pledge signed store and they must have made a mistake in their pricing. You will get at least a $120 refund pretty quickly.

black has etching as well

Hmmm they changed the description. The black specifically said no etching earlier, and also no mention of being numbered.

Black vinyl /250 is up now if you don't like etchings.

Some of the stuff sold out (Bone, Clipping, etc), but hopefully the stuff in stock still gets filled.  It's a janky site, but they're a reputable company in Chicago.

Reckless is great for regular records but garbage for RSD items. I've received a cancellation every single time. Including for Bone which I purchased yesterday, they told me they didn't have it today, and then relisted.

Amoeba has Charlie Parker on Discogs for $47.50.  Weak sauce Amoeba.  Weak sauce.

Are you still looking for Charlie?

Just now, Captain Chrismo said:

Welp, it was there briefly. 😂

You're right. I noticed the same thing. But then it went away and if you added them to cart they showed as out of stock at checkout.

For what it's worth, if you had a limited item in your recently viewed list, you can still add it to cart...

Not anymore.

Did you go with a black copy or the colored edition?  Eager to see how they turned out but failing to see any entries on Discogs or IG tags.  Regardless of the variant you picked I’d be curious to hear what that sound quality is like if you’ve had a chance to spin it, too.  Would you say the whole thing is as nice as the CFUTF box?  (Assuming you grabbed that one too.)

I bought the Both Worlds variant. It looks great. Doesn't match the mock-up exactly (yellow portion of pinwheel is translucent and the "wave" effect on the blue/purple isn't nearly as good as others I've seen) but we definitely don't need to bring out the infinity stones of disappointment. Actually if you go to discogs, someone made a listing under the singles/EP heading (not sure why it was misplaced there) that isn't my copy but is an accurate representation of what I received. The packaging is great. Haven't had a proper listen yet, but I missed out on the deluxe CFUTF and settled for the delicate orange version so wouldn't be able to compare sound quality there. Anyway, I hope everyone on the board receives their copies soon and I'm sure you will.

Just to clarify, these are the single LPs shipping, right? The deluxe editions haven't shipped yet?

I got my deluxe Brother, Sister 10 days ago.

I really think the blue is the VMP a side b side. In the pictures, the one side is almost all yellow (little blue), and then just a faint bit of yellow on the overall-blue variant in a similar spot. They also didn't put up a second variant when the splatter sold out and replaced it with black. Nor was it mentioned in the description of variants available.

 

I could be wrong though

Seems like a reasonable theory but if that's the case I think they screwed up the variant video by showing both sides of the blue/yellow smash in the same shot while all the other variants just show one side. But I guess you could make the argument that the other variants look the same on both sides.

My gf missed the cream variant so I'm gonna follow this and see what pops up. Curious if urban will do anything like before

 

Edit: Just read that some were taken down in OP - is that what happened with the cream then?

The cream never made it up on the main page. Some people played with the URL and found/posted direct links to the cream and also to what appeared to be a cassette and several bundles with no descriptions. Then all those product pages were killed. So it's assumed that they didn't sell out but rather weren't ready to go public yet. Although you could order from the direct links for maybe an hour or two so no one can be sure if anything did sell out or if they will even honor the orders that were placed during that time.

Looks like Dollar General is in store only but Cabela's??

Feelings aren't facts. Flippers might make you very sad, but when it comes to timed releases Ben is correct. The more people who buy now (flippers+fans), the larger the supply. Therefore, people who miss out will be able to get it later for cheaper if more flippers buy it now. I don't think anyone is saying it will be cheaper than retail, just cheaper than it would be if only fans bought it now.

Excellent deal, these were almost $50 retail after shipping

It's completely random. Sign up for Stock Emails on the ones you want. I got notified that I Am Sam went up live.

Speaking of which. It's back up if anyone is still looking!

10 year anniversary repress on transparent vinyl limited to 500.  Looks like only a few left and promo code CELLZ gets you 20% off (about $33 shipped).

Any word on the gazillion ear remix flexi? They mentioned in the email that the first 500 orders would get them but I didn't see anything on the website.

I emailed them about it last week and received a reply today. Said poster was done and band is signing them now. Stated I would be receiving it soon and would get an email letting me know when it shipped.

Thanks!

For those who bought the colored set with signed poster, did you receive the poster?

Sponge has been up for over a month, but take a look at the current stock of the Stabbing Westward titles and then you can choose to believe or not. Doesn't matter to me.

LOL, i can go ahead and guarantee that LITA has not sold anywhere near 1000 copies of the album. dare i say they haven't sold more than 100 or so. you crazy.

I don't have any stake in this. Just telling you what I saw.  Like I said, it's possible that LITA is faking their stock numbers and somehow keeping track of actual stock levels manually. But I've never seen them do that with any other title. Not to mention there would be no reason to do that.

24 minutes ago, jrodan said:

so LITA has sold over 1000 copies according to your sleuthing?

Well they still have copies in stock. But I think your basic idea matches with what I observed in the code.
