achillesstand7 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Did this just go from $23.99 to $25.99? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremybentham Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Did this just go from $23.99 to $25.99? I placed an additional order for my brother and his order (shipped to my address) was $1.50 more. Ordered about 10 mins apart. Same shipping, same order, same everything, $1.50 extra?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 What time did you place the first order? Also, is that to say it was a $1.50 more on top of $23.99 or $25.99? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albert Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 5000 copies.. How did you find this out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madtired Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 5000 copies.. How did you find this out? you can add as many items to your cart as you want.. I tried 4000, and it would have let me check out. Went up to 4500 and I got a screen asking to be notified when they were in stock. played around with the numbers from there. 5000 is a safe assumption because I checked about an hour after they went up..but I obviously am just making an educated guess. EDIT: Now I see they added this note: "Warning: The maximum order level for this product is 5 items." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 I'm kind of amazed that they set a limit due to the fact that Cedric claimed they were drowning in Octahedron LP's. You'd think they'd want to sell as many of this as they can, however they can to pad the cost of the previous LP's overstock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know. That's weird. The shipping is already super steep at $13.48. What shipping method are you using for that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest deathbydrums Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 By the description, only the poster is "limited edition"... whatever that phrase means nowadays. "Double 12" Opaque Blue & Orange Vinyl. This album features a widespine jacket with 2 full color 3D inner sleeves and 3D Glasses. Also included, Limited Edition 12" x 24" full color (folded) poster insert." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Hopefully the vinyl color is limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achillesstand7 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Hopefully the vinyl color is limited. I would guess they'll all be the same. I think for all of their records (except the glow in the dark Frances the Mute), they've only had one version of each. The whole pressing has been the same.

mcpherson123 Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Anyone notice that they're claiming its opaque vinyl but the photo looks like its translucent colors? I'm guessing none of the vinyl is actually pressed yet so the vinyl in the photo is more than likely not the actual product. I actually think these colors would look better translucent than opaque. What do y'all think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achillesstand7 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 That's true, the pictures look translucent. Which I also think would look better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud87 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Hopefully the vinyl color is limited. Why does it matter? Also yeah I think these would look better translucent, especially the orange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, this being a site made up of a lot of collectors, many like limited pressings. If this color were limited it would justify preordering way in advance and paying for shipping rather than just buying it later at a store. Do we really have to go into this bullshit conversation again? Seems like every month some cooler than thou wad has to make some comment about someone being into limited or variant pressings.

Also yeah I think these would look better translucent, especially the orange. I doesn't matter to some. But a lot of (or most of) the people on here like to collect more limited records. So, if that's not your thing (which seeing as you list how limited your records are on your tradelist, I'd say it is), let others like what they like.

cloud87 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I understand what you're saying, and it was an honest question. I just meant the way TMV do things this is almost surely the only pressing, therefore why would you want it limited, let as many people get the only press as possible. Obviously you're hoping the colour is limited and they'll press a reg black? I think even Frances had both the glow in the dark and the regular go up at the same time though. My question was pretty stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcpherson123 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 From ORLP's facebook: "Make sure to pre-order the limited 3-D first pressing of The Mars Volta "Noctourniquet" before they are gone! http://hellomerch.com/sh/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=57" So apparently there will be a second press (maybe) with different attributes. Non-3-D, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I was just thinking about how the 3D thing will probably be limited. A 3D cover is so important to me when I am listening to vinyl. Maybe I need to smoke more weed and it will make sense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
