dyllaaan Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 /u/sogross was probably basing it on £3 shipping without selecting "Rest of the world," which is £10.50. £48.49 ~ $73.78 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessA2295 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 For those who preordered the deluxe from amazon - was it the tricolor? And are they warped too? I just got a shipping notification today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Mine will be here in the morning. I'll update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Looks like my A/B is slightly warped after all. Nothing like in the video above. C/D is pretty flat though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchtower41 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Just got my Deluxe vinyl in from Amazon, and where I am keeping it sealed for time being for the wife as part of Valentine's Day gift, I can confirm that the sticker on front of Special Deluxe Edition states Tricolor 100% Petrochemical Vinyl.

I would open it, it's likely warped and you should get placed on the replacement list, sounds like this is quite widespread watchtower41 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouTwo Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I listened to my copy a 2nd time and I really started to notice some pitch variations on the warped A/B. Especially during "Chateau Lobby" that I'm used to hearing on the radio. It just sounded off. I'm sure it doesn't help that it plays at 45RPM, The tone arm is just bouncing up and down. I emailed Sub Pop. We'll see what they say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
degenerex Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Are all of these issues with the deluxe version only or the standard version as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector53 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 So you guys think I should hold off buying it in store too right then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
213041284s Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Are all of these issues with the deluxe version only or the standard version as well? I think just the deluxe because of the mechanism inside the jacket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waters Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Another deluxe here with such a weird, severe warp that the needle jumps and causes an infinite loop. Only tried one disc- then emailed SubPop. Bummer for a $41 record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGMA_BALLZ Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 yep warped af looking forward to that replacement My a/b is pretty shitty...the c/d has a little warp to it but it's something I can probably live with...are most people on here just going for A/b replacements or asking for both new copies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I emailed Sub Pop yesterday but haven't gotten a response. My C/D is fine. Only A/B is slightly warped but it's enough to make a difference. I'm sure they are getting a ton of emails and their Twitter says they are working on a solution. I feel like my A/B would be fine if it played at 33rpm but because it plays at 45 it causes the needle to jump more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jettkoral Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Massive bummer. Mine should be here this afternoon. Hope I get the cassette, at least. Looks like a nicely put together package, though/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchtower41 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 As others have reported, my A/B is warped as well, C/D is slightly also, but definitely not as drastic. I ordered from Amazon. I will await some kind of statement from Sub Pop before I take action. It seems Amazon is either sold-out (somewhat likely) or pulled the deluxe from their site (more likely) because of complaints. I'd still love to own the variant of this release....hopefully Sub Pop makes good on all purchases, regardless of where purchased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whose_thare Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Mine seems to be fine, but I haven't played C/D or really looked at it thoroughly. Cool as shit packaging though. Mine sings like a greeting card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Unfortunately what is being lost in all of this discussion about warped records is that this is a great album! Early contender for my favorite of the year! Sidney Crosley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whose_thare Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Absolutely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGMA_BALLZ Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Oh fuck yea this album is solid....even though that "true affection" song seems kinda out of place but its a really fucking good song...and kinda breaks up the organic instrument folk vibe...(or something equally smart sounding) Favorite track is definitely "the night josh Tillman..."

Unique Antics Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 My a/b is pretty shitty...the c/d has a little warp to it but it's something I can probably live with...are most people on here just going for A/b replacements or asking for both new copies My C/D is ok and A/B is completely warped. I'm surprised they didn't think the packaging through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewberinger Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 here's a tweet from the Sub Pop twitter basically confirming the error subpop @Ehlers1 That said, a regular version may be yr best bet. There was a pretty bad manufacturing error on the deluxe we're working to fix. Thx2/11/15, 2:08 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
