Are you looking for the whole package or just the vinyl? I have the blue but just the vinyl

I love when USPS sends packages from 5 minutes down the street to the LA distribution center and then back to the SF distribution center. It's also impressive that something accepted at 9:45 AM in SF was in LA 11 AM June 24, 2020, 11:26 am Departed USPS Regional Facility SAN FRANCISCO CA NETWORK DISTRIBUTION CENTER Your item departed our USPS facility in SAN FRANCISCO CA NETWORK DISTRIBUTION CENTER on June 24, 2020 at 11:26 am. The item is currently in transit to the destination.

Just a reminder for anyone asking about Fat delays. https://fatwreck.com/pages/updates-on-new-releases

I probably could have been more clear. The subscription pressing had Trump on the center labels and cover. There were supposedly ~30 "mispresses" that had the Bush center label and 1234Go sold 3 of them.

1234 Go put a gold copy of NOFX - Ribbed on ebay. Interested to see what it goes for. I think they may have realized that they underpriced the Bush center label WOEs that they sold on discogs https://www.ebay.com/itm/NOFX-Ribbed-Live-in-a-Dive-LP-BAND-ONLY-GOLD-VINYL-punk-fat-Wreck-chords/383590172101?epid=245787712&hash=item594fc185c5:g:zqAAAOSw6JJe5pyQ

You can just tell paypal that their $30 won't cover the cost of shipping and that it's not worth returning the product. I've done this a few times - once with a cheap record where the store sent me the wrong item and once where something I sent got a corner ding and the buyer complained. Paypal refunded out of their own pocket. I didn't know about the return shipping thing. I have to return an item and may look into filing a claim just so they pay for the shipping.

Sorry, but this is wrong. Paypal also offers protection for sellers as long as you follow their guidelines and it sounds like you're doing it so they can't file a claim in the case something happens.

What shift? I think its pretty rare that sellers will ask for friends and family. I also generally just sell on discogs now so not even an option. If someone asks for friends and family I'll generally toss them the extra 3%. I prefer the protection unless I know who I'm buying from or it's someone I've dealt with before.

Fat also has the tour version of Face to Face - Hold Fast on their store. Not sure if this is old news https://fatwreck.com/collections/face-to-face/products/hold-fast-acoustic-sessions

So standalone color vinyl of the FT split is now sold out. I doubt they sold through the 8000 available copies. Wonder if maybe they left it open for a week or so and then they'll press however many were ordered.

I wouldn't count on it. The 10,000 color is likely split over a range of different colors and black will probably be repressed as needed. I know everyone is waiting for the day fat makes the black more limited but its not just not likely.

.

AKA the limited black variant since there's probably at least 50 of these now

Right?! Trying to match up those goddamn color names in the pressing info to what you're buying.

I think generally speaking we think of lazy employees as the bad apple outcasts, but when it comes to USPS the outcasts are the ones that are actually happy and helpful. I can't count the number of times I've been to a post office with a line and an employee in plain view either playing on their phone or bullshitting. You would think that when your company is in jeopardy of going out of business you might try to help customers so your company makes money rather than say...locking the door and saying you're closed.
