Freki Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Just wondering if anyone got a copy from Amazon? For $50?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barberbro Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 For $50?!I hope not. I'm only asking because I've got an order placed with Amazon.ca for Takk. I was hoping that if they came through for ( ), they'd come through for Takk as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barberbro Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I got ( ) from amazon.caGood to know. The price I locked in at on Amazon was less than $50. That's a steal anyway I cut it. Some stores in Canada have this marked at $70+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circuit bored records Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Sucks to hear so many people are having issues. I'll stick with my black copy which plays fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I got my copy today from .co.uk and it's on black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I got my copy today from .co.uk and it's on black Sounds like you got the European release that came out earlier this year. Did it have the sticker on the front top left that said it was clear and limited to 4,000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Sounds like you got the European release that came out earlier this year. Did it have the sticker on the front top left that said it was clear and limited to 4,000? No, it was the sticker for the other release. Not that I'm complaining either--the sound issue roulette would've made me too anxious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliminator Jr. Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 No, it was the sticker for the other release. Not that I'm complaining either--the sound issue roulette would've made me too anxious. Was it listed as clear when you ordered? I'd be a little bummed for sure. I have the black EU pressing from earlier this year and it's flawless, but some of my friends did have serious issues with their copies. Hope you got a good one!

I used that link from the OP on this, just assumed it was clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgoodtobefree Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Just checked--it didn't say clear. I used that link from the OP on this, just assumed it was clear. My fault. The first link in the OP was clear; the rest of the post was the original Sigur Ros reissue series thread. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgoodtobefree Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Also, I picked up a clear copy at my local store today. They said they received an email saying not to sell them but they were selling them anyway. I just spun my copy and it is fine for the most part. Sides B and D have some very light staticy "wooshes" that last 30 seconds or so, but nothing major. It's certainly not "unforgivable" like that one guy on Discogs says his is. The packaging is great.

simple_torture Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I saw one of these in the wild today. It's still out there if you're looking for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robes Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Got notification from amazon.ca that my order will ship soon. In fact, there are 2 left in stock as of right now. Act fast if you need this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudsbelow Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 With 4000 pressed and the issues with quality control.. there should be lots of these to grab and at discount prices. They're going for $28 on discogs. I picked up 5 from amazon and got one good one, returned the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnywreck Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I mean, the noise is a little bit annoying, but I don't know that I'll make any huge effort to receive a replacement. Otherwise, the record sounds impeccable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planetrakis Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Just send the tapes to mobile fidelity and be done with it! Mine's not to bad, probably try to track down a DMM version though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgoodtobefree Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 Even Mobile Fidelity records have pressing issues sometimes. Also I don't think they'd even be able to do a much better job since this album was recorded digitally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robes Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Apologies if it's been discussed already, but anyone have the recent XL pressing, and if so, how is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAXXX Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I mean, the noise is a little bit annoying, but I don't know that I'll make any huge effort to receive a replacement. Otherwise, the record sounds impeccable. didn't make a huge effort, but sent two emails and waiting on replacement. sound is way too annoying for me to want to listen to this pressing.

I'll send an e-mail and see what's up. UPDATE: Bullmoose just offered me a refund rather than a replacement. Sticking with my copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
