That's completely unknown. Like, might this Blue variant be something akin to the 'Indie Store Variants' that have become more common as of late. Maybe we're only seeing places like Amazon and possible other retailers because it's a variant made for a specific market? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EHughes527 Posted December 15, 2017 Author Share Posted December 15, 2017 Ok, so the stock amount just jumped up from "1 left" to "20 left" - maybe more blue copies? Maybe not. Buyer beware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EHughes527 Posted December 15, 2017 Author Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) Got a response from Simon about the blue Codex VI on IG... Says it's "A special limited run for our UK distributor" And when asked about press size: "Dunno... 500?" So, I'm unsure if he's mixing this up with the /500 Green variant that was an SRD (their UK distributor) exclusive press. Asked some follow ups... Will update if he responds further.

Thanks for trying to clarify - I was thinking about writing them too. Especially with all this pricing nonsense from Psilowave. I managed to snag the last copy that has been available a few days ago - before another batch went up - and asked why this last copy has been up for a higher price. The answer: That was my last copy and I debated whether or not to keep myself a copy, in the end I put it up for sale, hence the slightly higher price, which to be fair was still a good price compared to what they will be changing hands for in the future. Didn't know what to think of that back then and surely don't know what to think about it know since more copies are purchasable... Maybe you can ask Simon about that, I don't use Instagram...

I'm sure Simon has never even heard of Psilowave. They're a brand new distribution label and they would be dealing with SRD for those copies, probably not Twisted and definitely not Simon. Please do reach out to Twisted tho. I think they might be our best bet on getting an answer on this. I'm going to still attempt to get a contact over at SRD to talk to me too.

But it's still the only place to get the green one, right? If not I'm thinking about returning mine and ordering a blue one instead - because I'm not a friend of this behaviour and the blue one is much cheaper... EDIT: @EHughes527Thanks for thinking of me and tagging me for the blue one. Edited December 15, 2017 by phramenma Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arck2412 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 So we don't know if the current Amazon stock is blue or not? I really want to pick up a copy but don't know if I should pull the trigger. Man, what a mess this is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon should be blue according to @EHughes527 : https://www.amazon.com/CODEX-VI-3-LP-Blue/dp/B07323YG3F But I prefer the green ones with the artwork - if it wouldn't have such a pricetag.

EHughes527 Posted December 15, 2017 Author Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) I just got positive confirmation from a user on Discogs that Amazon UK has green copies from this URL: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Codex-6-VINYL-Shpongle/dp/B07323YG3F/ref=tmm_vnl_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1513358467&sr=8-1 I'm going to guess that both blue and green copies are SRD exclusives, but that blue is a US market variant and green is a UK market variant. Possibly both /500 Edited December 15, 2017 by EHughes527 Widar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EHughes527 Posted December 15, 2017 Author Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) Lol, so I excitedly explained getting the blue copy in from Amazon and the ordeal of not knowing which color, etc to my fiance, and she just looks at me and goes: "So, you just got another copy of something you already own?" XD She's not wrong. I refrained from telling her about the Green variant...

I doubt it won't be sought after in the near future if you end up with buyer's remorse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phramenma Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 No worries, glad that I got one. It's always hard to tell wether to wait or to snag immediately...
