mesi Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 They were both pressed at the same plant. Ok, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Just arrived at the office from Amazon UK. Came in two separate frustration free mailers together in a thin, beat up box. Not that the beat up box mattered cause they were secure in their mailers. Perfect condition. Super glad I picked these up for $22.50 each rather than the stupid american over priced black copies.

Did you have to sign for it? I'm thinking this is what I missed yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Did you have to sign for it? I'm thinking this is what I missed yesterday. It was delivered to my office, so it's possible someone signed for it in the mailroom. Mine was shipped DHL from germany, then transferred to USPS. DHL very well might have required signature.

TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Mine was shipped DHL, said "delivered" in Germany. Now I have a replacement that should be here tomorrow UPS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Mine was shipped DHL, said "delivered" in Germany. Now I have a replacement that should be here tomorrow UPS. Mine said the same thing but after a few days kept moving. I think it was a language issue. I believe the DHL "delivered" tracking meant that it was "delivered" to the carrier in germany that was transferring it to the USPS. It took several days though.

deer Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Hrm. Interesting. We'll see if I end up with two from Amazon... If you do, I'd be happy to buy them off you cause I can't buy these off Amazon with a PayPal account haha... really wish I could, the price is amazing and if I were to go down to my local store the black copies would be over $60 combined Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Us Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Got mine today from Cede. Had to pay 14,5€ taxes per record so the total amount I have paid is 37€ (44$) each. Fuck my life,this sucks so hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExtraFox Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Are all the copies on Amazon.uk those same colored variants?

dreamover Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 All copies sold in the US are black put out by Arena Rock. All copies sold in Europe are colored and put out by Extra Mile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 FYI the colored press definitely isn't 180 gram in case people were expecting that. The black US versions apparently are. In case anyone was wondering, the download codes that come with the Euro colored versions (not sure about the US black pressing) include all the bonus tracks from the new "Complete Collection" Double CD. Each record comes with that respective disc. The Power of Failing 01. Five, Eight and Ten02. Gloria03. Slower04. Dolorosa05. 80-3706. If I Could07. July08. Silver09. Take the Picture Now10.

Shelby Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 I got lucky, but be wary if you ordered the Euro copies to the US from Amazon. Loose in a gigantic 3x2x1ish box with a bit of brown paper for packing. The box also looked like an animal ate half of it, only ended up with one dog eared corner.

My Amazon UK copies showed up in a similar box as well, minus the animal mauling. Fortunately they're in immaculate condition. I think I lucked out.

The variants also turned out a lot nicer than I was imagining. I wasn't exactly sure what I was expecting but I'm definitely impressed.
