Robert_Sofa Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 They took the bundle down. Maybe they messed up on the quantity or something. Gotcha. Think that /500 wasn't supposed to be there or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_Sofa Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 That bundle is probably limited to 500, not the vinyl. That's most likely what happened, but the bundle they just took down was (Vinyl on Black, CD (limited run), and Poster) with the bundle having "Limited to 500" language on it. Here's another bundle: https://killermerch.com/artist/Circa%20Survive/Circa%20Survive%20-%20Descensus%20Pre-Order%20Bundle%202 T-Shirt, CD (limited run), and Poster - but no mention of the bundle being limited. The only bundles that were marked limited each had something extra to them: Yellow/Black vinyl, Test Press, Drum Head, lyrics sheet. We'll have to wait and see I guess.

andrewlucas Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I emailed customer service and asked if the black vinyl was limited 500 or if just the bundle was limited to 500. They said its just the bundle thats limited. Robert_Sofa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said its just the bundle thats limited. Thank you for clearing that up. Agreed that the text in the photo is misleading. Especially since the color versions were displayed nearly identically. Do we need them to confirm that the Yellow/Black copies are truly /500? or was that just the bundle too? Might there be another shot at that variant? Prob not - but it's up for question now!

Robert_Sofa Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Got confirmation the vinyl isnt what is limited to 500, its the bundle. However that text in the photo is very misleading. Just compare the Yellow/Black variant image to this Black variant image. I think it's misleading one way or the other. You couldn't fault a customer for thinking this was a limited variant too. vs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Requiescat Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I emailed customer service and asked if the black vinyl was limited 500 or if just the bundle was limited to 500. They said its just the bundle thats limited. I'm still confused. Just to clarify, you're referring to the 180g vinyl, right? You're saying the 180g vinyl itself won't be limited?

Royce Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 That's so stupid haha and you still can't buy it outside a bundle hahaha. Lol so since the splatter was in two different stores they could have easily pressed 1000 of the splatter and made it 500 each on both sites too. if they are trying to pull this crap, i mean why not?

It looks as if there in a non-limited pressing of Black 180g vinyl. You can find it for pre-order a ton of places: http://www.bullmoose.com/p/17028893/circa-survive-descensus http://www.shopradiocast.com/products/Circa-Survive-%252d-Descensus-2XLP.html http://interpunk.com/item.cfm?Item=224187) http://www.bestbuy.com/site/descensus-dlcd-180-gram-vinyl-vinyl/25916556.p?id=3309082&skuId=25916556 http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00OC7MDBG http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/descensus/28226245?ean=817424014427 The confusion comes from KillerMerch.com offering up a Limited bundle with the Black pressing included (unlimited) (Bundle #11). If you compare the Bundle images from both bundles, you can see where several people thought this was a black vinyl limited to 500, but u/andrewlucas says he confirmed with the retailer that it was solely a limited bundle, and not another limited variant. Lol so since the splatter was in two different stores they could have easily pressed 1000 of the splatter and made it 500 each on both sites too. if they are trying to pull this crap, i mean why not? I think this is a question that deserves to be answered. I'm sure the colored press was limited, but now the /500 aspect isn't so set in stone... like you said, there could have easily been 500 per site. For all we know the band will get copies for touring with too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert_Sofa Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 this pre order was handled so terribly What? You didn't like unique offerings spread across multiple websites? Or that the Official Circa store got no vinyl? Or the fact they forced everyone to buy an extra poster and CD they probably don't want if they wanted that Yellow/Black variant? /s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

izpoodave Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 So I ordered the 180g Black as soon as it went up, but I sent an email saying I wanted to cancel shortly after finding out the 180g black wasn't actually 'limited' to 500 copies. I got this response back from the guy who runs Killer Merch. Looks like there is 2500 - 180g black total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got this response back from the guy who runs Killer Merch. Looks like there is 2500 - 180g black total. I think this may also answer the question for how many of the yellow/black variant there are. They posted /500 for that as well, so logically that could mean that this is the amount they at Killer Merch had for sale. Meaning that there are at least 1000 total (assuming no other sites get them for sale, and Circa doesn't take any on tour). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
