    The 9 used variants just got delayed 6 weeks to June 18 so my point is even more valid now. 

    So valid. 
    If the imbeciles that put this box set together had only refrained, we would all be basking in the glory of 9 variants of The Used records before mid summer. Damn them.

    Ok thanks, ordered a copy anyway.

    But seriously, it's 2021. It's not acceptable that labels, especially major labels, still do this shit and don't include download codes. This seems especially to be the case with major artists these days.

    I feel like the pinnacle of download codes coming with more than half of my new record purchases was about 2 years ago. I feel like 75% of the records I have purchased in the past year DON’T have a download code. Even from artists and labels where downloads were the norm. I suppose with the prevalence of streaming services a download is no longer essential.

    man box sets like these are why vinyl takes so long to release and always get delayed.  they just press anything and everything on vinyl now.

    Absolutely. Why press 5000 box sets that sold out almost instantly of a band with fans that have been waiting years for anything from this catalog to get repressed, when those vinyl presses could be shitting out 10 new variants of albums by The Used from nearly 20 years ago. I don’t know, doesn’t make any sense to me.

    I really want to pick one of these up, but over $40 with shipping is getting to be too much. Might try to pick one up locally if they stick around for a bit and can catch an in store sale as I live in the Boston area, but it is getting harder and harder for Newbury to be my local.

    Bullmoose hasn't shipped mine either. I might need to go to a local shop.

    My copy did not ship from Zia and I got an email from them saying that they did not get the allotment that they expected but that they should be getting more soon. So, I went to a local Newbury Comics who indicated there was a wider delay with this release and that a large majority of the indie splatter copies were pulled or not shipped because of production or sound issues. Take it for what it is worth, but this makes more sense than the  near total lack of in store availability for a new Weezer record.
