retrospectacle Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 Is this limited to 100 total or just thru them...basically do I need to get this right now if I want it? who knows, but, it does say extremely limited. Suzy told me a while back that they've never licensed this LP to anyone so they are the only ones who have this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsfan4ever80 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Thanks for the heads up. Picked this up at around 3:30 and am hoping they didn't oversell it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Cool ordered! Do they usually oversell stuff at Bomp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tattoomike Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Cool ordered! Do they usually oversell stuff at Bomp? I've bought from them many times and have always gotten what I ordered. And I've never heard of them overselling their releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enjoyadrian Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 just ordered right now. It's hard to believe if 100 hasn't sold yet, but i think there might an overselling here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it all works out. i got oder comfirmation, but never payment confirmation....on their email it even says 'keep in mind that mailorder hours are Mon Tues and Thurs, 8AM-5PM...so i guess we shall hear something then...regarding oversold-ness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thousandjulys Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 they just updated the description to say that the total pressing is /2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derkwithano Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 they just updated the description to say that the total pressing is /2000 haha what a scam! I guess the other 1,900 will go to physical stores....which will in turn go to their online distros. Weird thing to do here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsterrod Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 they just updated the description to say that the total pressing is /2000 I should have trusted my instincts. When I read, "Mailorder will have just 100 copies," I KNEW there were more than just 100 made but I still went for it. It's a really good record that I would have bought anyway, but what a scam.

plasma36 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Pretty shitty to be unclear about the pressing info but still a cool package for a good price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thousandjulys Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 yeah /100 was too good to be true, but i jumped on it too. oh well, as mentioned above, its still a cool package Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickinfatbeats Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 feeling a bit duped as well. probably wouldn't have been so quick to jump on it had i know it was /2k and not /100. but yeah, still cool, whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 This is not cool at all. One hundred to 2000 is a BIG difference. I would have just bought this at my local store and saved on shipping costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itmustbereal Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 I almost pulled the trigger on this, but decided to wait. For once that actually worked out in my favor. As mentioned above, the difference is huge and seems really shady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 2,000 is still a small number for these. The black Friday brothers reissue was limited to 3,000 and sold out super fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itmustbereal Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Yeah but this album is re-pressed on a weekly basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrospectacle Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 Sorry to all that jumped on this, myself included. Definitely shady thing to do. I'll be sending an email first thing Monday to voice my displeasure. I'll let you know if it leads anywhere, perhaps refunds for those that want one. We'll see.

knowyourborders Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Yeah that's super disappointing, but I'm not going to worry about a refund or anything. I still love this album and it seems like a cool issue, and what's 20 bucks. I might have gone with the 180 gram, but whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molder Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 "Just to clarify, in our e mail we said that "mail order has just 100 copies of this limited release". This does not, of course, mean that there are ONLY 100 copies total! A few people seemed to think that they had stumbled on the deal of the decade, obviously if there were only 100 copies manufactured one would expect to pay $100, not $14. In this case it's a total run of 2,000 but I had wanted to emphasize that with this release, mail order would NOT be able to call back extra copies from distribution, as we sometimes do, as it seems to be an instant sell out . Our initial allotment of 100 is all we're going to have, and those 2,000 will disappear into the world market in a flash . Thanks, Suzy Shaw" Regardless, it's an awesome alternate copy for my personal collection, just sucks for anyone looking to flip it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
