Notice how they updated the vault page now, I bet they were still getting a lot of orders yesterday, because it's false advertising when you have in giant bold letters "subscribe to vault 20 now" "vault 20 in stock" and images of it.

There's no false advertising with the Third Man Vault. The deadlines for specific vault packages are plastered on every step of the sign up.

Even with the deadline, it's misleading when yesterday it still said "vault 20 in stock, purchase now". TMR would never win that dispute with PayPal or a credit card company

Mainly black. They do do 300 on tri color vinyl for every release. And for the first 7-8 releases they did 150 or so on glow in the dark.

 

Most tris, other than white stripes or blunderbuss singles are limited to 150. WS and JW singles usually have 300 copies.

 

They do a great job keeping their catalog updated, so you can see the numbers and colors pressed

The pressing numbers can be quite a bit off. For some reason, it says all black and blues are limited to 100 all of a sudden. Not possible.

Over the past 5 years, Third Man Records has brought to life many ideas that are new to the century-old vinyl format. So, when it came time for the creative hive to discuss the vision for the pressing of Jack White’s Lazaretto, we were keenly aware of what it would take to produce a piece of wax worthy of the music it would contain… No single innovation would suffice. We needed to go big. We needed to go bold. We needed to press an ULTRA LP.

-       180 gram vinyl

-       2 vinyl-only hidden tracks hidden beneath the center labels

-       1 hidden track plays at 78 RPM, one plays at 45 RPM, making this a 3-speed record

-       Side A plays from the outside in

-       Dual-groove technology: plays an electric or acoustic intro for “Just One Drink” depending on where needle is dropped. The grooves meet for the body of the song

-       Matte finish on Side B, giving the appearance of an un-played 78 RPM record

-       Both sides end with locked grooves

-       Vinyl pressed in seldom-used flat-edged format

-       Dead wax area on Side A contains a hand-etched hologram by Tristan Duke of Infinity Light Science, the first of its kind on a vinyl record

-       Absolutely zero compression used during recording, mixing and mastering

-       Different running order from the CD/digital version

-       LP utilizes some mixes different from those used on CD and digital version

Holy gimmick!
