If they really want to start things right, and they have more problems than usual with 14 and 15, they should do a repress. Seems greedy to me - take a loss or break even on this if you have to in order to keep return customers happy.

Rules are rules and all that. I’m obviously negligent on this ‘cause I often don’t even check a seller’s return policy until I have a problem. And Third Man has a really tight (I would say unreasonable) policy. I must get too many records – my partner would certainly say I get too many records – and sometimes it takes me ages to listen to something.

So I’ll see if I can repair this (it has a big dip in it, as opposed to a warp, and my Project can’t handle it) and in the meantime save myself $260 a year.

But Master Jack White doesn't know how to repress. Master Jack White is perfect.

They're out tomorrow and you can order them now. I love that they're doing printed jackets for these. They look great.

Are they doing any surprise colors for these? Thanks.

Very doubtful. In very rare circumstances for smaller bands that weren't necessarily at capacity they'll send out a few of the overrun, but these are three of the biggest live at TMR releases yet, so expect black vinyl only.

 

That being said, I have an extra Shins coming my way that I'm hoping to trade for a Kills B&B.

they just started shipping international first, going backward in alphabetical order. next will be domestic, also being shipped backward in alphabetical order. US customers should receive a tracking number when it ships this time.

 

Okay cool. My fiancee placed the order so any updates would be going to her email addy. I appreciate the info!

The black and blue version of these records are limited to the number of people who attended the live performance at Third Man and pre-ordered a copy, usually about 300. These obviously are out of the reach of most people. The pre-order mentioned here is for standard black and are pressed in perpetuity. Or, as Third Man states, are "unlimited".
