So my copy of this just arrived. I am a bit surprised after months of unanswered emails. The record was shipped in a resealable poly outer that was duct taped to a piece of cardboard and inserted into a bubble wrap mailer. I’m shocked it arrived in one piece. Definitely the worst shipping I’ve ever seen from a label. I’ll never be ordering from this label again, and I’m so glad I dodged having to do a return. I predict a lot of you will receive damaged LPs.

Well, in my case, I got a subscription pop up on their Flightless site, which I sign up to. So check the site and see if you get a pop up, Otherwise you may be able to sign up via their FB page? These emails only started a few months ago, after the fallout of the FB scandal, presumably cos they intend to ditch their FB page? I recall the first email I got from Flightless....the opening line said:
"Facebook is dead, Instagram is over, Zucker is done. This is where the news is gonna be."
Quite a bold statement to make in one's debut news email!
Thanks for the advice. No pop up for me. The hunt continues. I’d love to get this stuff when they start releasing it, but I’ve got a feeling I’m totally going to miss out. Anyone with a link to a signup page for their email list, please feel free to share.

Here’s a review of the NOS LPs on Discogs:
The brand new sealed copy of this I bought at the last reunion show in 2017 is not good. Lots of pops, surface noise, and low volume. Stamps were stuck to the what looked like an inner sleeves that had been in contact with moisture.
I’d say buyer beware.

actually NRW is not longer than this. NRW never crosses paypal dispute 180 days territory. and NRW, while i hate how far out their preorders are, at least has pretty accurate ETAs...in fact, they usually beat the advertised shipping date on most of their releases. he also responds to emails. totally different
Agreed. Fuck this label. Will never order from them again.

Where can someone in the States buy these reissues? I'm wondering if there's a recommended site for ordering Stateside.
Edit: I’m specifically looking for something less than the $40 per title Flightless typically charges for purchases in USD.

I'll email them later in the week to get some pressure going in case they don't get back to you right away.
This is the best plan for getting anything from Neon City at this point. I went through something similar with the label Ormolycka a couple of years back, and once that dude was threatened with suspended accounts, etc., he started shipping orders immediately. I mean think about it, is it worth it to this guy to have his Bandcamp account disabled just to rip off a few people? Probably not.

Haven't thought about that, but I guess it wouldn't hurt. At this point, I believe the window for getting our money back has already passed assuming they never ship the orders.
I’m going to email them in the morning. I recommend everyone else do the same. I’ll report back if I get any response.

Nope, I’m in the same boat.
Should we contact Bandcamp? I've emailed Neon City three times, but I have only ever gotten one response back in February or March. I'm also doubtful this is legit.

George Clanton started taking orders for his new album on Bandcamp. This is a preorder and only two songs are available for streaming so far. This is limited to 1,000 copies on blue vinyl. Don't snooze. I'm sure this will sell out quickly.
Order here:

Missed the pre-order on the Acoustic Sounds website. I was “on the fence” because of the price.
However, I finally decided I would like to “experience” the Mono mix of this album from what is supposed to be the best pressing of this album out there. (Except maybe a near mint original UK Track issue?)
Saw this today and ordered:

While the listing states they are “unsure” whether they are actually going to receive them, does anyone know where I can pre-order a copy of this that is likely to be delivered?
I think your best bet will be to email Acoustic Sounds directly and ask if they are doing any traditional distribution for this release. My understanding is that these are 100% sold out, but I am basing that on what I've read online. Reach out to AS for confirmation.

There's streams of the tracks on that link, too.
Thanks for letting me know they added these. The streams were not up there until some time this week

Rough Trade repress on red wax (/1000) coming later this year:
https://www.roughtrade.com/gb/music/salad-days (Still no word if this will appear in the US RT store)Also worth noting that 2 Demos (green /5000) and Salad Days Demos (white /5000) will be available 8/24 via Captured Tracks.
Captured Tracks on reddit said this should be showing up on the US RT store. Some people were asking in a thread on r/VinylReleases

Unfortunately that’s just a link to buy a download of the album. I’d love to cop this but heard that the sound quality on this might be dicey.

Does anyone know where I can hear a sample of this? I'm on the fence about ordering it. I don't know much about the sound quality of this release.

Just came across this preorder for a standard black version for $30 in case anyone else missed out.

I haven't bought a single copy. Not worth the flip when cost is $30 and sells online for what $40?
But I was at Euclid Records yesterday and they had 3 copies on the shelf...hit them up
Thanks so much. Just got two copies for me and a friend. So glad I didn't pay flipper prices.

I believe @Vaporwave Meme Poster was running the group buy for this, try reaching out to him
Not sure what you're talking about. I ordered from bandcamp.

Anyone receive their Macross 82-99 yet? I emailed the label earlier in the year and expected a shipping update by now. I reached out yesterday but haven't heard anything back yet, I've seen a few on discogs, so I thought maybe they were already shipping.

Gonna make a trip to Sound Garden in Baltimore for some new releases... Last I heard they were fully stocked on greens. Anyone still looking?
Yes. I am. Look in your inbox for a pm. Thanks!

If anyone knows of a place that has the green version I would love to order it. The entire bay area is sold out! Thanks
Likewise! Any leads would be very appreciated.

I am in North Carolina and I did receive multiple shipping notifications. I found my most recent one in my inbox. It is from August 8th, but I seem to remember also getting one in February or March although I can’t find it so it’s possible I’m wrong about that.
