tarzioo_ Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I got my mine yesterday. I'm so glad I waited! Actually not waiting wasn't an option because I couldn't afford what the OG went for Anyways, I'm pretty excited about owning this! I'm not awake yet, this whole thing is probably full of typos.

slinch Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I will say that, other than differentiatinig presses, I wouldn't have minded a repress of pure black 180 gram just for possible better fidelity. Other than that, I'm not caring much. Fun fact: black vinyl also isn't "pure", as the material is actually clear/greyish and black coloring is added to make black vinyl. So technically black vinyl is also colored vinyl, only clear vinyl is actually "pure". Labels that go for the best possible sound fidelity usually opt for clear vinyl. Either way, the quality of the press, master, stamper etc. all play a much bigger role in sound quality than color. dreamover and No This Is Patrick 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vector53 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Got this in last night. Playing it again makes me feel the obsession I had over this movie. I'm probably gonna watch this tonight when I can lol and man Mombasa is so damn good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliminator Jr. Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 My copy arrived today. Can't wait to spin it! It's one of those ultra-clear pressings, I genuinely love that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vega Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 My copy arrived yesterday...they packed in 2 inserts hahaha Was the first press also pressed in CZ? I always thought it was made in the us, but i'm probably wrong... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thievedrelic Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Did anyone who ordered from CDUniverse try to do the "Free Shipping Rebate" offer on the receipt? Mine says: "***SPECIAL OFFER*** Get a FREE SHIPPING REBATE on this order! Go to www.claimyourrebate.com and select "CD Universe" from the list." It sounds a little scammy but I don't know, it's literally right on the CDUniverse receipt. Would be nice to get a $7 rebate but I'm probably not going to bother unless somebody here has had success with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its some site where you have to sign up for a "amazon prime" style membership across a bunch of no name sites to get the rebate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a marketing gimmick basically buying your info for a cheap rebate.Also, Inception is no longer available to purchase from Amazon, only from the third party sellers on Amazon, which usually means that it's starting to go OOP again....

circuit bored records Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 This didn't last long. Considering it's still available to order from best buy, elusive disc, soundstage direct, cduniverse, I would say all things considered that it did last long. I don't think it's going to be unavailable for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domiendr Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Mine is pretty noisy,a lot of Pops on the quiet parts. Manageable but weird as the record is clean and no scratches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoStairwayDenied Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 It's back on amazon, but twice the price from what I paid a week ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazHilarant Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 My Dark Knight and Inception came from cd universe yesterday, I was pretty surprised. The stickers on the front were quite old looking and faded from shelf / storage wear, the sleeves however were mint. My inception has no sound issues whatsoever and plays clear through all the silent passages. These are most certainly dubious reissues.

scottyrobotty Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I love this record but the packaging on it is a bit weak. There are so many stunning images from the film and they just chose a couple of the cast posing. Twice. Regardless I'm glad to finally have it.

PRINCE Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Just a heads up, Amazon has ~100 on order on the way to them now, so they may or may not pop back up on Amazon from them directly, if they do I HIGHLY suggest jumping on them ASAP, I don't know if anymore of these will surface after that..
