Reza Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) God dammit, it grinds my gears so bad every time I refresh their page and that freaking button still works! And just for the record it's only 11PM their local time! And this went down 3, 4, 5 hours ago! Edited May 2, 2017 by Reza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reza Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 From the money they have collected so far, they better go into an agreement with XL-Recordings and make this happen! Heck they even better come up with gold glitter version of the record! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooks Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Glitter. Exactly what everyone wants on their newly analog sourced audiophile recording. Reza 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm still trying to get that for something close to a reasonable price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExtraFox Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 26 minutes ago, Recon said: Just got this message from Recordstore.co.uk on Facebook after asking if my preorder will be fulfilled or not. So, as you already said there will probably be cancellations. I don't think they had the intention to get more users on their website, but they should implement a tool to count all preorders in order to prevent this... Recordstore.co.uk aren't an indie store - they are part of Universal (who have various other online music outlets like The Sound Of Vinyl). I don't really know why they should have got any of these on blue as it's supposed to be indies only. I also can't find any connection between Universal and XL to explain why they might end up with loads of these, so I think people are right to be sceptical. When it comes to items they actually have in stock, they have been pretty good at cutting you off when they run out, but as of 2313 BST, they are still selling it.

Reza Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 From what I saw on social media, I'm sure they sold a good couple of hundred copies. Now awaiting the apology message + refunds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Box ordered. Didn't expect to drop almost $150 on records today, haha. I know I'd be happy with the 3xLP, but there'd always be a bit of regret about not opting for the box.

Charles Barkley Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Fuck it. Bought the deluxe. I figured out that I could justify the price since I don't have any of the b-sides on wax; therefore, technically, its like I am getting an album and three of those capitol singles that go for like $15 a pop. Thus, when you think about it, i'm only spending $100 on the boxset and $45 on the singles! Hell, that doesn't even include shipping costs if I bought the capitol records individually, so really I'm saving money! Right?! If anyone needs an indie blue, I might be able to sell one to ya down the line at cost thanks to my BM preorder.

I'm not a box set fan, but I appreciate the art and workmanship that goes into them. I'm pretty sure they screwed my blue order at recordstore so, if down the road you didn't want yours, I will be one happy chap to grab it off you.

Reza Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 OK here is another f-up if you think you got it right! Amoeba just contacted me and said that I have ordered the black vinyl! Here is what they said after I asked for a double check with my order number: I'm sorry, but the variant you ordered is the black vinyl. The reason you're not seeing the blue vinyl on our website is that it is a very limited edition, so we sold through our allotment very quickly. There is a small chance that we'll get more blue copies in the future, but unfortunately no guarantee.I'm so sorry for the disappointment, Reza. Please let me know if you would prefer to cancel your order for the black vinyl. I swear to god I bought the blue vinyl, through the link here, but apparently they want to keep it for their own precious customers. In their email invoice there is no mention of the colour so they can get away with it easy! So if you think your order is safe with Amoeba, think again! So basically 2 x $70 down the drain with no results. This is the end of it for me folks, f up and f up with these "indie record stores" @PookdaddyG I really do appreciate it if you contact me when you recieve your blue set.
