yeah so people who actually ordered that BTS record started getting the same exact shipment email this week. Insane. Unless all of ours were generated in error, which is possible I guess?

If/when you get your copy just sell it for $50-60 to offset your shitty experience with Sandbag so far.

I recd and email yesterday that sandbag has shipped me a “BTS Dynamite Package”. 
 

WTF? Is that my free gift?

Yeah, same - I’m predicting Sandbag is so fucking unpredictable they’re sending some of us copies of this:

How has the BU /500 not sold out after so long? The signed batch stateside was gone, what, that first night? Next day?

I need to grab a copy before I regret not doing so...

I am very excited because mine just shipped.

Went with the tour variant... weird shipping went up a few bucks on these compared to "places".

That tour variant is going fast, about 550 left and the other variant has about 1600 left.... maybe these are limited to 1000 and 2000?

There were over 1k of the tour press available. It had been on sale for the fan club for a bit, so maybe /1500?

I wonder how the Sparklehorse is selling? I think I'll feel better about spending $243.95 if it sells out. 

245 still in stock at the moment.

3 pink left... gone

Blue sold out.

Lol imagine getting this mad someone called something you like shady. 

Cut me some slack, it was a really dumb adjective for you to use.  Revved me and my LITA lower-back tattoo up.

Now that we've slowly narrowed down a broad reply into a completely different subject via editing comments and ignoring fair points lets wait a while until we see these selling for less than cost on discogs.

You and Ben can keep that shady editing stuff going since you're the only ones doing it. Shady. Tsk tsk.

I think there might be. 

If they were selling slowly I have a hard time believing they'd double their quantity "so far".

Just now, Sh100by said:

Proof?

Newbury sold 350 and LITA sold at least 850 in extremely short windows of time. There's no chance RS didn't eclipse 500 the night they were put up.

Did RightStuf restock? We know you know

I don't think they ever sold out - it just seems like an open preorder since they never advertised a number. I'm sure they sold 500+ copies quickly the first night, especially considering theirs was up so early.

Just now, Sh100by said:

After it sold out they quintupled the pressing amount and ignored everyone asking them if it was still limited while people continue to buy it thinking it's hard to get.

That's why they (and RightStuf) never advertised any type of /500 number. Milan is the one responsible for fucking up roll-out details for this release - they get the RightStuf mockup wrong and then advertise those two stores as /500 when they knew the stores could increase their pressings.

"We can't prevent a retailer - especially in those difficult times - to increase their run." -Milan

Also, the fact that the Right Stuf variant is still there makes it pretty apparent opening the floodgates on the more desirable (i e splatter) variant has stifled other sales.

Or that shows they did exactly what LITA did when they saw how quickly they were selling copies.

Lita refund was pretty quick and easy for those of y'all that don't want to give any money to a shady company.

What did LITA do that’s shady?

I’m in the vast minority but I’ve grown to like Panic Blooms more than anything else he’s ever done. I still haven’t gotten tired of it.

He just has an LLC and is buying wholesale from a few different stores. But then he’s selling things closer to how a DIY flipper would, and since he has so many copies (that he purchases for cheaper pricing) he just needs to undercut the lowest flipper price to have full control of that item’s market.

I’m getting a 404 error on that Sparklehorse link and I don’t know much about VMP. Is it sold out? Do they sell out or do they press enough to satisfy preorders? 

Still 883 in stock, not sure why the page would error out.

Edit: didn't realize this was the same as the Cartridge Thunder version
