Man reading these posts made me so happy. Everything that was mentioned are things that we decided, when we started the label, would be good ideas to hammer home – having records in and avoiding preorders when possible, making sure people had a clear understanding of the time it would go on sale, trying to keep prices fair so not ONLY a die-hard fan is motivated to pick one up. In this case the second press going up yesterday wasn't expected on our end, but it worked out and I'm glad we were actually able to get the photos / product page lined up on time. One of the best things about running a label with your best friend is that you can make a call like that over the course of a few text messages and get everything done within 15 minutes.
 
So tl;dr: Thank you for recognizing all that. It means a lot.

For anyone interested in how these were able to sell out so quickly (namely the /100 variant), Nick Mango who owns the Limited Run webstore platform wrote up this blog - http://alternate1985.com/post/83651185348/only-fans-buy-vinyl-between-refreshes-on-limited-run
 
It's a short, quick read about how that works out, why some of you never saw the /100 variant ever appear to be in stock, and kinda why LimRun is the best webstore platform around. I couldn't recommend it more if you ever need an online store.

people are really defending pop-punk right now

okay

second press up now / thank you very much / shipping begins today

Nope. From the guy who owns Limited Run:
 
"First clear order was placed at 2:00:05 and the last was placed at 2:00:29. So 24 seconds to sellout the clear."
 
We had 2 maximum per cart. It was like 70 orders.

email zack at badtimingrecords dot com and we'll see if we have any more laying around

EDIT: It's for sale now http://badtimingrecords.limitedrun.com/products/522637
 
Hi all, 
 
Happy to announce that Bad Timing Records is releasing Valencia's We All Need A Reason To Believe on vinyl for the first time. Like our first release (Acceptance's Phantoms), we are licensing this through Sony / Columbia. 
 
It'll go on sale tomorrow at 1pm EST right here: bit.ly/wanartb
 
300 Half Light Brown / Half Red 
700 Mint Green Marble
 
They will cost $16, with $5 flat-rate shipping across the U.S. We'll have some two-pack bundles for $30. We might do a bundle that includes a copy of the second pressing of Phantoms as well. The entire shipment arrives today and tomorrow, but we're holding off shipping them until the weekend of Jan. 3, mainly to dodge the USPS' busiest shipping season.
 
We were really happy to work with the band to create some special alternate artwork for this vinyl release as well. Check it out below and there are more details on the product page. If you guys have any questions, feel free to just ask 'em in this thread, I'll be around most of the day.
