forgeagain Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 You heard it here first (since I didn't have time to send out a mass email about it yet). I am cutting off pre-orders on Monday at noon. There are maybe 20 copies left of this (probably less actually). If they're not gone via pre-order by Monday they'll be on sale as soon as they show up here in early-mid February. You've had two months to pick them up that cheap. These records are very expensive and I made the pre-order price as low as possible. The final per-unit cost will likely be higher than the pre-order price so get in now while you can! Covers (these are just computer versions....the screened ones will look much nicer with the real paper and ink and everything): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk0nuggets Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Those look classy as the dickens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forgeagain Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 They should look real sharp on high quality French paper too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forgeagain Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 Bump. Preorder is over in the morning. Take your chances and spend more $ after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forgeagain Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 Just bumping to remind people that a few of these these should be available for sale again in about 2 weeks. The tests were approved(they sound great!), the covers are being made. Just stuck trying to get ahold of the label place (they might have already run them and shipped them to the plant.... I have no idea) to see what the deal is. Should ship before Valentine's Day for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forgeagain Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 It's not too late. There are a little under 20 copies left of each that'll go on sale when they're ready to ship. I'll post a few days in advance to let people know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forgeagain Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 Responded, sir. I've gotten a number of emails from people who still want to order copies. There was a snafu with the films for the labels for the records, so it's looking like these should ship just before Valentine's Day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monk0nuggets Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Classy. Shipping this week, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forgeagain Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 Classy. Shipping this week, correct? Hopefully. BSCR told me they'd turn them around in 1-2 days (they've had test pressing approval for weeks) after they got the labels. The film place shipped the film to the wrong address so there was a week delay before the label place got the films. Then when they got them, turns out the film place sent 2 of one of them and 0 of one. So I had to get the correct film sent there. THEN, since the lady at the label place doesn't speak much English, I didn't understand that they wouldn't mail the finished labels until they received a check. They didn't do that with the last release, but apparently that's how they roll now. So I sent the check last Monday but I used first class mail. If I had known I would have used priority. So theoretically, if the plant gets the labels Monday or Tuesday, I COULD have the records by Friday. However, I'm guessing it's going to be more like early next week. I will stuff and ship all the pre-orders immediately though, so as soon as I get em, everyone else will. Also, since they shipped the original films back, I'll throw one in with each of 3 random pre-orders that ordered both albums! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
