HMM maybe a couple of dollars more than I'd have expected but not too bad for 2 triple sets. A lot cheaper than it would probably have worked out the other way I expect! (paid $17, non tracked, yesterday for 1 lp to ship to the uk from castleface) UK shipping was £7 (approx $8.50) Edited October 8, 2019 by craigeduk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepperonigin Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Man shipping is crazy but whatever, not missing out on these. CeCeCe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glass realms Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Got the clears for these two. I don't anticipate these selling out as quickly as the first five. But who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youspinmeround Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Man, street date is Black Friday. I liked going down to my local store and getting the clears but will have to order online. Not dealing with the crowds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackshidt Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I missed one clear and don't want to pay huge shipping for just the other one. Waiting to see if something frees up ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackshidt Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I caught a break - I was finally able to add the other title to my cart and check out.

OldKentuckyShark Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 So I'll admit, today was really the first time I've given these two albums a go. For you Stereolab completists, where do these albums stand for you in comparison to their others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound Dust is my least favorite of all their albums, but I have to say I rate Margerine Eclipse quite highly, not in the same realm as Mars, ETK or Dots, but not too far behind OldKentuckyShark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) After Mary died, I think the band really started falling off. Of course they had personal problems in there too, so it probably wasn’t the best time to keep making music. For me Sound Dust is really the end of an era. I think it’s a very good album. There are lab fans that rate it as one of their best, or at the very least, their favorite album. For me, I think MAQ through Cobra as being their best. Sound Dust can be included in a second tier with the Switched ons, Transient and Groop. ME can kind of exist on its own in its own tier. It’s good, but not great. Would say the same for everything after it too. Edited October 8, 2019 by timsimmons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a while I think I overrated the early stuff & underrated everything post-ETK. At the moment...

jackshidt Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I was able to easily cancel my $28 shipping order and re-order from BullMoose. I lose the obi's but I gain $28. Here's hoping BullMoose comes through with the items! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copelandkid Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 BullMoose cancelled my Sound Dust clear order, apparently not getting as much stock from the distributor as anticipated. I placed my order very close to when they went up, wonder if they're getting any at all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I placed my order very close to when they went up, wonder if they're getting any at all... Yeah, I picked up Cobra & Phases clear at BM in Lewiston, Maine. They only had that one copy in the whole dang chain, wouldn’t ship or even transfer it to another location (“in-store pickup only”), and the item description was deliberately vague. When I called, the duty bot told me they could only hold it for an hour, max. So I drove down at like 90 mph after work; probably added $10 in gas to the $30 sticker price. Unregretted. Still kicking myself, though, for not snagging an obi copy when I had the chance. Had it in my dang bleep basket & everything! Then decided against, cuz I wasn’t so into it way back when [=idjit]. I’ve since listened to C&P more than any other Stereolab album, and it gets better every time. Starting too be true of Sound-Dust, too...

MyEnemy Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Bullmoose cancelled my order for both. Not sure if it was because they were in the same order or actual stock. I, also, ordered mine very close to when they went up. Right when I saw those emails, went over to Zia and copped both. Let’s see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
