I am going to try and get a store list this week for everyone who missed out THE_James_Champ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enjoytheride Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 For those who may have missed out Brookvale ended up getting 700 out of the 1000 copies pressed instead of 500 so they are now selling the final 200 copies...they are now in hand and will begin shipping immediately http://brookvalerecords.bigcartel.com/product/dream-theater-metropolis-pt-2-scenes-from-a-memory-180g-black-vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enjoytheride Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Sunday bump for anyone who may have missed it.

markok Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 For the people in Europe: be prepared to pay a lot of customs taxes, because Brookvale will put the full value with full shipping on the record mailer. Has anyone in the US actually got "caught" because of marking the package as "gift" when sending to Europe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_James_Champ Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Getting my copy today. So excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone in the US actually got "caught" because of marking the package as "gift" when sending to Europe? Thank you for pointing this out....I will bring this up to them about fixing in the future. I am sorry about that considering they were expensive to begin with and shipping cost for intl was high as is UPDATE: I was told by Brookvale that all International orders will be marked as a "Gift" in the future. Sorry again about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Thank you. Though I just checked the scan of the shipping label the customs sent me and I think with USPS shipping label it is impossible to hide the shipping cost and because of that every package still qualifies for taxes even if you mark the value of the item as 5 USD and gift.

mydenvermint Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I was charged and when I check my order on their webstore it says the status is "In Progress". Its been that way since the 3rd. I sent an email yesterday asking what the estimated ship date is and I've yet to receive a response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Alright, received my package from Brookvale today. First of, the sound is amazing, I first heard this album in 2002 and this is the best I have ever heard it. I always thought Falling Into Infinity CD sounded the best, but this vinyl version is as equal or even better. I didnt compare this vinyl to the 1999 CD, but it has more depth, more drum room ambience and it seems to be more dynamic (a lot more dynamic than the CD version). The only gripes I have is that: - there seems to be a lot of surface noise on side D (I havent listened to the whole thing yet, but I noticed it right away). Maybe the stampers are worn/damaged? Other sides had no surface noise at all, thats why I noticed. - Brookvale Records is using a super sturdy and protective record mailer, but the record mailer is about 1cm too large inside, so the records are still bouncing in it. Some bubble mailer would of have been nice. Luckily the gatefold is super sturdy so no splits. - I had to pay customs fees (always hate that) But to conclude, buy it, now. enjoytheride 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say though, the album as a whole is amazing. One of my favorites, and this vinyl set is so very well put together. I'm very happy to finally own this album. enjoytheride and Out of Breath Records 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Is it me or is the surface noise mainly in the right channel only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gippej Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Really hope my order goes through, looking forward to kicking back and jamming this album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
