gmoney Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Oh This is exactly what they did with Yellowcard. Mind you, I don't care a ton for pressing numbers, but it bothers me how deceptive SRC can be at times. They know these are being pressed based on how many orders they get, yet they don't say that, and act like it will sell out soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwokeinrelief Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Oh Where is that quote coming from? (sorry, I can't seem to get the whole thing to "quote" - just your comment) Way back in the thread SRC stated "These are on the press so we know exactly how many we are getting." which seems to blatantly contradict the quoted text.

futures Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Just got Futures tickets! Stoked! same here! Where is that quote coming from? (sorry, I can't seem to get the whole thing to "quote" - just your comment) Way back in the thread SRC stated "These are on the press so we know exactly how many we are getting." which seems to blatantly contradict the quoted text. it was from the link that dreddfan posted from banquet's site.

Katamari Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 hey UK/euro people - you can preorder from banquet and they have a bundle. crap exchange rate they are using ($1 = £1) but still works out cheaper than importing, at least in UK. http://www.banquetrecords.com/jewtrio Not really, SRC shipping is insane but from the JEW store, you can get all three delivered including postage for £82 making them £27 each. Juno.co.uk also has them up for around £30 each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, wouldn't SRC still be subject to import fees too? I dunno if that's why the shipping is higher because you've already paid. I'm unsure what to do as I can't really afford them yet and if they're gonna press a ton then I'll just wait and get it later, but Banquet's contradicting statement is weird.

dreddfan Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 yeah I found a site that calculates import fees, something like £12 for two records imported from the USA but I think the Royal Mail takes an £8 fee just to cover themselves so that's another £20!

Katamari Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I also noticed this in the original press release... with ex-US versions to be made available through Universal Music Enterprises UK. So I imagine that means cheaper prices when they surface on Amazon etc? I hope so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreddfan Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I've tried to find out about that too with no luck from uvinyl.co.uk or on twitter. it's almost like they want you to pay those high shipping fees! still tempting, would rather not miss out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered a copy but they had some artwork issues or something and cancelled my order on Uvinyl after about 3 months. Yet to pick up a copy.

dreddfan Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 just checked again - they are up on amazon for just under £40 a pop Katamari 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katamari Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Nice, pre-ordering these and hoping they come down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreddfan Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 yeah worth a go, not sure if amazon will match the price of other retailers if you email them? might try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katamari Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Yeah I just told them about the lower price from the link on the page. Might take more notice if they get more people doing it. Still, just hoping these turn from Imports to EU pressings for about £15+. I can dream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burkazoid Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Gonna pre-order on Amazon for now since it's easily cancelled if it doesn't come down. Good spotting UK folks - thanks. Edit: Oh, I've noticed that the Banquet variants are all coloured. I'm guessing the Amazon variants would be black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Do these SRC releases usually hit US Amazon at all? I've got a little Amazon cash that would soften the blow and with that and free shipping I'd feel ok getting Clarity and Futures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drummerboy032 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 What's the deal with the posters? I ordered all three from SRC, will my order include posters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 What's the deal with the posters? I ordered all three from SRC, will my order include posters? they're promotional posters that will ship with earlier orders of other stuff. they want you to buy other shit from them and maybe you'll get one.

jvphotoandvideo Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Missed the Futures Presale tickets for Ventura. Apparently they use the word "Local" loosely and put them up at 7am rather than 10am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
