Pre-order: HEAVENS “Patent Pending” LP #d of 100

[Guest Admin]

HEAVENS “Patent Pending” LP (hand #’d out of 100 copies)

http://stores.channeladvisor.com/vinylhome/Items/heavensppv?

Ever since hearing about this release on our message board, I have been bugging Joe of Heavens to allow us to buy some copies for Vinyl Collective. Joe was kind enough to respond, but he was apprehensive about having us carry copies. I waited. Then I saw the thread pop up again in our message board and wrote Joe again. As luck would have it, I caught him at the perfect time. He had just received copies of the record and the pressing plant had pressed a little more than the thousand he had ordered. He asked if I would be into taking 100 copies that would be specifically hand-numbered for Vinyl Collective and to that, I said, “Doe a Bear Shit in the Woods?” I am stoked to be able to offer this release and know that this will be a highly coveted record as I imagine it will soon be out of print.

I expect to receive copies sometime next week and hope to have a photo up on the site soon (as the art on the vinyl is supposedly different than the cd art).

Sweet. Thanks for pushing this through Virgil. And I think making it the "VC Exclusive" of sorts makes it even cooler for us...

w00t! good thing i never bought from the trainwreck preorder

[sgoodcore]

Damn me and my Alkaline Trio fetish. Ordered.

My sentiments exactly. Ordered. Thanks Virgil!

It wasn't THAT bad...just frustrating because it took a looooooooooong time to finally get pressed and ready to be out. That's really it.

The guy was doing the whole thing very DIY anyways...it can't be 100% smooth and on time. But it is nice that Virgil was able to get some.

[flood]

whew! made it home in time to order.

[jhulud]

Test Pressing contest for this one maybe?

Hmmmmm...or is that too much wishful thinking?

[akross]

If this is still around when I get home from work (and can finsih the checkout) I will be picking one up.

I hate work today

[john]

how about something special for those of us like myself that preordered this the day it was made available back in august? Or how about just sending us the record we paid for?

[bendik]

Ordered it. I have an existing order already, can you add this one to that one? I payed 10$ shipping, dont know if thats correct if i already payed shipping for my previous order?

Can anyone clarify?

Clarification:

1,000 Total Pressed

100 Given to VC and #d Out of 100

900 Sold Through Their Preorder #d out of 900

...? I'm just not understanding the double # situation. Any help?

When you press record you often end-up with overage. I think, from what I read, the VC copies are that overage. So think there will actually be more than 1000 copies in print.

[jhulud]

The way that it reads as Virgil wrote (and compared to the original post by Josiah) is that the total press is 1,100. Original pressing was 1,000 but then the plant pressed and additional 100 as overage.

So Josiah is putting the 1,000 and the 100 going to Virgil.

Apparently, it's more like 1,100 (or so) pressed

"the pressing plant had pressed a little more than the thousand he had ordered. He asked if I would be into taking 100 copies that would be specifically hand-numbered for Vinyl Collective"

[Guest scriptedrain]

Oh ok. So:

1,000 Copies Available Through Their Preorder (#d out of 1000)

100 Copies Available Through VC (#d out of 100)

...? I'm cool with whatever ends up happening, I just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly. For the record, I would've ordered from Virgil had I know he was getting some, but considering the preorder went up in July, I figured these things would've been long gone by now.

[jhulud]

I was actually surprised that Josiah still had orders to fill left available this late in the game. Especially being that originally went up in July as you mentioned Jeff.

so triple crown is putting out this record?

LOL! Funny!

[kirbypuckett]

I only ordered this because it was specific to Vinyl Collective...just like the OP!/BTMI split. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.
