I ordered HKE and Ferraro from him in late January. Nothing to show for it beside a vague promise to bundle all orders together back in September. Todd used to be an okay guy like a decade ago and the label would ship stuff promptly. Night-and-day difference to his beyond-frustrating neglect today. Make OESB Great Again.

I payed 35 bucks for shipping . Between this and the restocked( ) Flightless King Gizz MOTU variant, I've payed close to what both the Smiths Queen Is Dead box-set AND the Tame Impala Currents box-set would cost me at my local store (before taxes). Didn't expect to kill my wallet like that today. Was hoping to nab an Amazon sale or two at most. So it goes.

Here's the round-up: https://www.amazon.ca/Infiniheart-Turquoise-Vinyl-Reissue-VanGaalen/dp/B000A2XCT4/ https://www.amazon.ca/Diaper-Island-Marble-Vinyl-Reissue/dp/B004YE6HHS/ https://www.amazon.ca/Shrink-Dust-White-Vinyl-Reissue/dp/B00JZOJJG8/ There may have been a Soft Airplane reissue this year but no Skelliconnection (which is the only one I'm missing outside of Shrink Dust and the new one). VanGaalen thread-derail over and out!

That convinced me! I got an Altered Beast edition to expect from the Land Down Undaaah after all EDIT: I don't know if you know, @HoneyFrosted but there's been a bunch of Chad VanGaalen reissues (on coloured wax no less) when he came out with his new album back in the fall (or late summer?)

Thanks @HoneyFrosted! An detailed and informative reply. My initial suspicion was that they have put tour overstock on sale once they got it back from the band or something. I think I might just splurge on an Altered Beast after all.

Excuse me? What did I type that makes you think I want to flip it? How about you go fuck yourself with your ignorant assumptions? I just wanted to know whether Flightless was up-charging on these or not because I think that practice is just as scummy as record-flipping and I don't support labels who think it's their perogative to get in on the speculation game by adjusting prices according to it. Way to lose a sale on your King Gizz pressing, btw, you reactionary jerk.

Hmm I missed out the first time, thinking of getting an Altered Beast. How much more expensive are they now?

Wow the board doesn't even pop a Notification for your reply. Strike two for me.

Fudgesticks. That was so purrty and I missed out.

Not surprised that Mag Earwhig! sold out. I'm not huge into GBV but this is a mid-period highlight. Right up there with Bee Thousand

Edit: Got a delivery notification/confirmation yippee!!

I've only every listened to Voyage 34 The Complete Trip and apparently that doesn't sound like anything else PT?

When they say "the original album" they better not be fucking around. I've kept my first edition import CD for a reason.

Well I'll flip my blue reissue I guess! Barely played it.

Damn I was going to buy it the next time they had a sale. I'll pass and find a regular version. Would rather pay reasonable prices if that's the packaging.

*Does not compute* Wow, what a world we live in. That's like saying Radio Shack had Kraftwerk albums on discount in 1980.

Narkopop going for 67.99 USD at Boomkat shipping not included in case anyone wants to complete their Gas collection this holiday season *shrug* https://bleep.com/release/81872-gas-narkopop Good music to chill out to in case your relatives are stressing your out lol

It seems I can't buy from Homeless. Country restrictions? Tectonic is almost exactly the colourway I've been hoping (Just wish it was yellow splatter and green where it's yellow now). Nice to know Aural Pleasures hit its first benchmark. 180g is appreciated, even though it and every other stretch goal tier above it will only increase the shipping cost. We may be cheering each one achieved, but we won't be so happy at the accumulated shipping overage fee that comes with it. But I don't care. 2xLP 45rpm is the only reason why I have it pledged.

What you're too foolish to realize is the blatantly obvious fact that this logic doesn't apply at all to my case considering the package never actually arrived at the destination. You know, for someone who pretends to absorb information the first time, how about absorbing all of it and putting all the pieces together maybe? You and the label's logic both is. "My solution to solving the problem of a package that never arrived at its destination is to demand the buyer provide an alternate one because 'The definition of insanity is never repeating yourself...' no, wait, that's not how it goes... 'Fool me never, shame on..." Um, no wait, that's not right, either.... 'because reasons!'"

...Is this an episode of "Good Ep/Great Ep?" cues Trooper - "Not Here For a Long Time"

But hey, keep defending Steve/labels for no reason over a fellow collector/customer on a collector board. Makes perfect sense. Same "logic" being used by Steve to defend Canada Post returning a package that never got delivered to the destination in the first place and claiming that the reason why is that it was refused at the destination it never attained. Seriously wtf is wrong with the world? Let's keep individually defending the failed systems that plague us over each other/people because it's 2017 amirite?

Pretty obvious, tbh: They can reship the item back to the original address considering I have a 24hr concierge and -- to repeat -- I was at home when the package was supposedly refused by me. Steve at the label is personally at fault for believing that bullshit notification over me, the customer. How is that right?

Whoever ends up with the deluxe the label refuses to reship to me after no fault of my own: You're fucking welcome! So Steve at this label fucking sucks. He keeps insisting that the package was refused despite the fact that I was at home and my apartment has a concierge, and a record label is in the same building as me even! He keeps insisting I provide an alternate address, which I don't have (None of my friends have a concierge like me so their addresses are way more unreliable) so he's going to refund me. His exact words are: "Okay. We’ll refund your order then. I don’t want to spend another $20 to send a package to Canada that might be refused again by the Canadian postage service. " Fucking cheapskates. The customer is never right in 2017. Fuck Superior Viaduct. I'm sorry I ever gave them any money in the first place.

The Norman Records version went on sale at 7am EST.

FWIW Norman Records had a "yellow submarine, ruby red and blue moon frosted clear splatter vinyl" edition out of 100 but I received the email 2 hours too late. Sold out.
