TigerAndTheDuke Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Anyone order from soundstage direct and receive their copy yet? I emailed them and got a response that the shipment has been delayed 10-14 business days, with no reference to when it was delayed from. They told me the same thing on June 9th. I canceled my order with them when I found out my local store received a few copies. They said they couldn't refund my money so the options were get credit with them or for them to send it to me through PayPal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerAndTheDuke Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Shit, I ordered black as well. Yeah, my order was black too. I cancelled on June 24. If they said 10 to 14 days to you after that I think you should start looking for the vinyl elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natenomm Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 It's my understanding that the black vinyl release was squashed by the members of Mars Volta. I don't think many actually made it to stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptothedo Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 FWIW, I ordered from amazon through the intrasound seller and they sent a gold version. With shipping it was $36. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeburns Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Been thinking about this whole deloused/amputechture scenario. MOV/Cedric have effectively created a nice little collectors item here through being forced to cancel their distribution of the black variant.This means there are only very limited runs of both gold and black around, making this likely worth more than we all paid for it initially. It also means the original version has its price fairly well maintained but this MOV release will likely hold a pretty good price due to its sound and now rarity, although who knows what will happen when Mars Volta finally get it together enough to release their versions of the catalogue. Whether or not MOV hold their price or not is probably going to depend on how long it takes for Mars Volta approved reissues and the quality of their sound. Either way im glad I managed to get a good clean gold copy of Deloused from MOV. Im not a collector, just a music fan who enjoys vinyl. In my opinion it sounds great and I have always wanted a copy so now Im happy. Really interested to find out the full story around this whole scenario too.

natenomm Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 and the Silver variant? Utterly worthless. The numbering isn't even stamped on the jacket. BuzzersonKillwell and BobbyHill 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circuit bored records Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Utterly worthless. The numbering isn't even stamped on the jacket. I completely agree, I threw my copy in the trash when it arrived. I mean, if the numbering isn't legit then what's even the point?

fineexampl Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Smart. It's good to see someone who understands vinylz are an investment. Why does it have to have value? Can't something just bee cool to own and listen to? Sorry, but i open and play every record. If it ends up valuable, cool. If not, it still sounds cool. I completely agree, I threw my copy in the trash when it arrived. I mean, if the numbering isn't legit then what's even the point? Instead of throwing it in the trash you could have traded it to someone. throwgncpr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
