Shit, if they did a Coloring Book concept with Broken and Fixed, I'd buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) Are we still waiting for the reissues? My local record store is supposedly getting Broken, TDS, The Fragile and the new EP this friday. Edited May 22, 2017 by markok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to try and get my money back and re-order when they are finally ready. axotyl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 It sucks but hey, they already have my money. Might as well just wait it out at this point seeing as I do still want the records. freezeflash, Bladewillisisdead and daegor 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewillisisdead Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I just hope the store switch isn't some clusterfuck where we get refunded and have to order them again. Not sure I can pull that $200 trigger again, even though I desperately want these records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daegor Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Yup, I'm very content to wait. Adam10647 and Rip 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuckle Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I'm worried Broken is going to be limited in terms of stock due to production issues and scalability... *fingers crossed* this whole thing is just a storefront issue for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cecil Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Just saw an update on ETS from Silva Management (NIN mgmt company): *Definitely ended relationship with Firebrand (Foo Fighters and QotSA also in the same management stable, so thats bad news for their company). *Webstore has closed so they can transfer over all of the existing orders to the new fulfillment store (makes sense to stop taking new orders while doing that obviously). *Once the transition is complete, they will have the ability to fire out order updates ASAP and fulfill the orders. So I'd say in a week or so we will all get updates with either shipping notifications or a timeline. By the wording it sounded as though the records are pretty well good to go and the hold up was on firebrands end. daegor, vinyl addict and highfives 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they'll restock Broken while they're at it. edit: I read that thread and the Silva response makes it seem like Firebrand had the goddamn records and just weren't shipping them. Seriously, they may take the worst merch company title away from MerchNow. Edited May 24, 2017 by highfives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Here's the dude's post. Thank you for your email.NIN have joined with a new partner to run the online store, and we are in the middle of transitioning over to them.We are currently in the process of extracting the order data from Firebrand so that our new partner can reference and deliver the outstanding orders. Once we receive this information, we will send a status update email to everyone who has an outstanding vinyl order. Rest assured all current orders will be processed. We are working to fulfill these orders as quickly as possible. Our only goals right now are to get these beautiful vinyl releases into your patient hands, and improve the NIN online shopping experience. We understand that you all have been waiting a very long time, and we apologize sincerely. vinyl addict 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, they may take the worst merch company title away from MerchNow. In the entire two times I've ordered something from MerchNow I've zero problems...besides them shipping from my city and having the package tour New England before getting to me, but that's a media mail complaint. Not defending them, just haven't heard anything about them one way or the other outside my very small experience. In Firebrand's defense, shipping out thousands and thousands of orders is probably really hard. Especially if that's literally your only god damn job. daegor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psus2h Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 we'll they for sure have a bunch of BTF LP's they're not shipping because some of us ordered NIN albums with them. I paid with an Amex so I'm not worried about my money. I'm keeping my order and the HD digital tracks are holding me over.

Cecil Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Yeah I remember seeing somewhere that Deviations had sold like 15000 copies in the opening few days or something ridiculous. So it wouldn't surprise me if they had overestimated their capabilities/underestimated just how much these would sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between long preorders with delays and little to no communication to overselling, MerchNow needs to get their shit together. I know some bands have stopped using them because they fuck things up regularly. My latest gripe with them was they "sold out" of some LPs but then miraculously got some extras that they offered. Once those were gone they informed me they were again sold out and couldn't fulfill my order even though I ordered before the initial sell out. They take forever to respond to emails and are generally just kind of shitty to deal with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museummouth Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Seems like this will all work out and I don't mind waiting since it's been this long already. Hoping to pick up TDS when the site goes live again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I can only assume this will go down in price, but at least there's movement on the retail play. https://www.amazon.com/Actual-Events-Nine-Inch-Nails/dp/B071N9TFX7/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1495803434&sr=8-14&keywords=nine+inch+nails+vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I'm really waiting for The Fragile and Broken to show up in the Amazon marketplace for around 20% less than the retail as that tends to happen with LP's from huge pressings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
