The sticker number is what they ordered and the weird odd number reflects the overages they're receiving. Can't change the sticker after the fact.

They wait til GZ finishes pressing their order and put the final numbers they get notified are coming on the preorder page. Then freight shipping from Europe takes a month or three.

Like, who knew Cave In could still write suuuper-big pop hooks?

mufasa Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 They sent me reply today that I can keep the cloudy at 20% discount or ship back for full refund. I feel even worse for you mate. That’s utter bullshit. iDealélan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s not what you paid for, especially since the /200 was more expensive, but I thought the cloudy variant turned out so nice. (The blue especially is a much closer fit to the album art than any of the other variants – I opted for it over everything else and I’ve got no regrets.) But I can’t believe Relapse wouldn’t let you keep it… or that they won’t send it back to you – on top of a partial refund – after admitting they oversold your intended variant.

No refund either, I’ve had two different support folks with different results. I’m just out the money, with no record. And now support is closed. The cloudy splatter is always a reliable option, I’ll admit. Didn’t find out they were out of the /200 until I sent the cloudy back to them (they got it today). Really hope they can at least send the cloudy back to me, but at this rate they won’t reply for at least another day or two. Who knows what the warehouse will do with the cloudy in that time… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows what the warehouse will do with the cloudy in that time… That’s such a weird (and shitty) limbo to be in, I would definitely be just as disheartened as you are. Silver lining is that the transaction is so clearly bungled right now – the fact you don’t even have a basic refund is asinine to me – that it could potentially shake out a few different ways. It does sound like I wouldn’t hold my breath for a /200 at this point, but hopefully they can at least rectify the situation without leaving you completely empty-handed or back at square one. I’ve never had that kind of luck with Relapse before. Super annoying. I get that mistakes do occasionally happen but it’s odd to me that more than 1 person got the wrong variant, too. It’s not like they haven’t been doing this whole vinyl mailorder thing for 30 years now. iDealélan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solitaryreign Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Oh man, you guys are making me anxious that my /199 which is still on its way here is the wrong variant and I have to deal with that bs support. I think that cloudy is just super boring and definitely not what I paid for. archiced 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry this happened to you but my explanation is correct. If you (and others in this small pool of people on this forum) got the wrong variant you can guarantee people got sent the /199 that didn't order it as well. Sucks all around.
