Same here. Seems like copies were everywhere, but still hard to track down. Hoping I find one somewhere as well.

I just got shipping confirmation on my order from the band's website today. At this rate, I should be spinning this by... next weekend? Oh, and no download code for me either.

Green and silver looks to be sold out on Hello Merch...

Now up on Amazon. $19.98, pre-order price guarantee... https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0743NVR2X/ref=tmm_vnl_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1500742876&sr=8-1

I think so. Gray just reminds me of "mixed" vinyl that No Idea used to release everything on back in the day.

Amazon has a listing for this, but it is listed as "currently unavailable." I have to imagine it will be available soon.

You should visit the Catacombs in Paris. I would suggest getting in line 1-2 hours before they open. Kinda seems like a waste of time on the front end, but it will save you 3-4 hours of standing in line if you show up when they open or after. I've heard that you can buy tickets for the Catacombs online, but I didn't go that route, so can't give informed advice there.

I would imagine these 7"s are going to be modestly available. A quick google search indicates the capacity of the Basilica Hudson is 1200. Assuming this is how many tickets they sold, plus additional copies they sold at the festival mentioned before, I would have to imagine there were at least 2500 of these pressed. In addition, most of the people attending the shows his weekend probably don't care to have these and might become available from various outlets.

Description says limited to 2500.

Well, the fidget spinner is sold out...

Bought the colored version from The Sound of Vinyl. $43 is alot, but it completes my Interpol collection.

Saw this at my local yesterday afternoon. Definitely numbered in foil on the back, lower left corner.

Can anyone see there being two separate releases here? An album short enough to fit on one LP would be different for them, considering the length of their other albums. That being said, I'm in regardless.

Got it. Thank you for your response. The seam split isn't anything I can't live with, just bigger than I have seen in awhile as it seems distros have gotten much better at mailing records in the past few years. Seeing how it was packaged, I would have been surprised if it had NOT been seam split.

I initially thought this was the issue. But I signed out and signed back in and the shipping charge did not change.

I am new to VMP and just got my first shipment (Demon Days). Before signing up for the club, I purchased The National's "Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers" and just got around to opening it, as I had been out of the country for a few weeks. Is it common for VMP to put the record inside the dust jacket and then inside a poly sleeve? I don't usually get too bent over seam splits, but this one is impressive. I haven't gotten a shipment from anywhere for quite awhile where the record is unsealed, yet still jacketed for shipping. Also, I signed up for a six month membership. Isn't one of the benefits of the membership free shipping on anything in their store? I was going to check out with the Hamilton Leithauser Spotify single and couldn't place my order without including $3.99 for shipping, making the total $13. Any thoughts?

Wave Records in Budapest, Hungary had 2-3 copies of Alice in Chains and one each of the two picture discs The Cure released for RSD this year. They had a few other titles that I know folks on here were looking for, but cannot remember anything else at the moment. I know Budapest isn't exactly close to most on here, but thought maybe those in the region might appreciate the lead.

I think the shipping surcharge is already built into the price of the subscription for you, seeing as how a 3 month subscription is $81 for those within the US.

The European Kings Road Merch site has an option as well: https://eu.kingsroadmerch.com/shop/view/?id=11070&cid=1031 Great looking, and not a whole lot more expensive really, but European shipping seems to have gone up considerably from what I remember. Maybe us Americans just got spoiled there for awhile by ordering cheaper from Europe than the US.

The site won't let me add either to my cart. I wonder if this is preliminary or something. I can't imagine them being sold out already.

Swirl is sold out.

Great first post.
