I caved and grabbed a copy, I know i'd regret it once it sold out.

You are in the same boat as most of us then, all you can do is wait now...

I don't think anyone got a shipping confirmation email, log into your account and it should tell you when it shipped. Most of us in the States are still waiting...

My order was cancelled, bummer.

Certainly not trying to start anything here and I certainly agree that the shipping price sucks, I've just had the experience reversed and quoted actual shipping costs from the states to various countries overseas and was accused of gouging when I was quoting actual cost. Nonetheless I'm super excited for these and can't wait to get them in hand!

I guarantee you have shipped records before and know how weight is calculated.

That would be a 3 pound package then...

Anything over 2 pounds ships as 3, you guys and gals know that.

Royal Mail for 3 pounds to the USA is £17.20 or $24.44, again I'm not saying I like it I just think it's an accurate reflection of the cost they are paying.

Understood, totally not saying it doesn't suck...i'm just hoping we realize it's not a shady move or anything. The pain is felt by others when something is exclusive to the US.

I understand that the shipping is expensive but I do hope you realize that is the actual price they are paying to ship, they aren’t jacking the price up and making money off shipping. That’s important to note.

Yeah the mods on Discogs are kinda assholes, i've added stuff before with clear pictures and it wasn't accepted.

No second pressing, if you are buying it now it's part of the first 500.

I'm down for a trade, do you have a list anywhere?

This album is fucking good, I was able to grab a test press and a regular copy yesterday. GRAB THIS SHIT.

Thanks, I'm really just interested to find more information...this stuff always fascinates me.

It's also not a gatefold, every other version listed is a gatefold.

So I found this today and can't find any info on this pressing, I'm usually pretty good with this stuff, it's a Japanese pressing and isn't a gatefold. Here is the Discogs link: https://www.discogs.com/Young-Tuxedo-Brass-Band-Ja…/…/332478 I can't find a Japanese press or a non-gatefold edition anywhere. I'm stumped, any help?

How do you get a blue copy signed without the bundle?

Same, didn't get any tracking unfortunately.

They have specifically stated that it will only be available on the website unfortunately for those who are hoping to save on shipping.

Usually towards the end of the month to boost sales, I’d imagine one would come out towards the end of January.

Still hard to believe nobody is offering this stateside.
