WAT!? I just tried to get one at cult and as I checked out it brought be back to the selection screen and saying only black. Or did I miss these can be bought other than cult? (Orange)

Ah, maybe you're right then. The Gov Ball page (http://cult.vaesite.com/governors-ball/) lets me take the product all the way to the last page in the checkout process. The Spotify variant page didn't let you do that once it sold out.

Nope you're right, I just must have experienced a glitch or something. Works now. Unless I get a cancellation email later

Looks like nothing crazy record wise at the pop up from what ive seen online.

 

However the merch is awesome. They have this sweet starter jacket, lol. Its $150 but of course going for like $300 on ebay.

 

I REALLY want one. If anyone is in NYC and could help me out and grab one i'd pay you extra for your trouble.

If you add it to your cart, a notification comes up that says that due to overwhelming demand, more will be pressed and shipping out mid-June: http://cult.vaesite.com/governors-ball/

Just saw that. Also says that when you try to order the black on cultrecords.com so I think they might be talking about just the black and orange is gone. But I could be wrong.

My local record store received zero copies of this and were sure they were gonna get some. I think the blue is limited to 500 as well. Dont see too many places selling it and if they are, they received a handful of copies at the most to sell.

I'm leaning more towards BM being a bit presumptive on how much of the #/1500 they were going to be allocated.

My buddy says two local shops around here each got 5+, wish I would have just waited instead of ordering online.

Hopefully some of the folks who've been flipping the Blue Vinyl on eBay get a "We're sorry......." email from Bull Moose, as well. I suregot mine -_-

Why?  If they do they will probably just go to one of the many other sites where it is currently still available?

Not before they refund someone their money back and eat a little crow in the process. And, sure they can go purchase the Blue from somewhere else (I just did) and relist it but most folks are getting hip to that, as well. I would think a relisting of the Blue wouldn't fetch nearly as much money today as it did a few days ago.
