Doesn't matter if they stated that or not - for someone to accept PayPal for a preorder payment it must ship within three weeks.

Does that still apply after the 45 day deadline? Also, just curious, why are people freaking out exactly? Minus the variant being the same as the indie retail, Brockhampton & co has more than enough funds to take care of this and has been shipping out orders. I don't really see that much of an issue haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museummouth Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Yeah what do people expect to get out of this? Clear > white anyways and minus shipping you save what getting it in stores ? Max a few dollars. corey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Taint Tickler Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) As an international customer I'm pissed, yeah. The $25/£20 I paid just for the shipping to the UK is how much it now costs to buy the exact same version from Amazon. With free shipping, quicker delivery, no customs fees, etc. I normally don't mind paying more and supporting an artist directly (and if it was a separate/webstore variant I'd have no problem at all) but when the vinyl is put up for sale on your site with other '24 hour only' merch that's already sold out and is the only place to get it at the time - giving it the perception of being limited - yet it turns out Amazon/virtually every music retailer are stocking the exact same pressing at a fraction of the price with significantly great convenience, it's pretty annoying. I haven't even got a shipping notification. Edited December 19, 2018 by The Taint Tickler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I opened a PayPal dispute yesterday, quoting not even getting so much as a shipping notification, and funnily enough I got a dispatch note this morning.. If it makes it through customs alright I'll just accept it but if there's a customs fee I'm gonna let it sit there and be returned to sender. 9 hours ago, corey. said: I guess I can see how it's annoying being from the UK, but are you sure that Amazon has the clear variant?

General consensus is the only pressing is clear, no black or any other variant. corey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Yeah, to be completely honest I'm a little peeved and it only ends up being ~$8 difference. I feel a little misled about the availability of the release and probably would have held off on ordering had I known it was more than a 24-hour PO window. pizza face and The Taint Tickler 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I mean all these POs that we're led to believe won't be in stores that end up in stores adds up with the shipping charges. I'm just worried my copy is gonna be all fucked up, its been in transit since December 10th and it is out for delivery today. I don't have much faith in careful package handling this time of year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reshiram Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I think everyone has the right to be upset about being lied to and schemed into buying something that was supposedly limited edition with a 24 hour window.

Lugubrious Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I don't understand why they didn't just make clear vinyl exclusive to their website and have bigger retailers offer it on black vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's what we all thought was happening. Mine shipped so I'm not going to do a PayPal dispute or anything. But best believe if it arrives damaged I'll be getting money back or a replacement at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite the icing on the cake to this terrible pre-order. I have a slight corner bend on the top right, not terrible. Better than seam splits though. Sounds like yours is bad though. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
