collectivemike Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Hmm I guess in hindsight the "clear w/ blue ink" was a little misleading... probably for the best though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

collectivemike Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Is This Thing Loaded to be pressed... Bummer. Fred from Triple Crown bought a copy of this, I was going to approach him once I knew he got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drummerboy032 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 You like this, you're going to love the next one Bird... big plans Edit: this is not related to my post below. I'm hoping with the success of kingprice (fast sellout), the idea of pressing Sounds of Salvation has been revisited/reconsidered.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodeojones Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I think my excitement for Kingprince is actually right on par with ITTL? - I never woulda thunk it. Couldn't be happier to get this release on my turntable, Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collectivemike Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 The irrational egomaniac in me wants to believe that TC saw the response to this and decided to pull the trigger on ITTL... far fetched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodeojones Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Did Pollyana get repressed? I have one of the older copies from a few years back. I might need to pick up a back-up copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

collectivemike Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 So just to let everyone know, I'm starting to pack everything up this weekend. Black copies will definitely start going out on Monday/Tuesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shifres Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 From Mike: Hey everybody, Just wanted to give you a quick update and let you know that Kingprince has begun the shipping process! The bulk of the black only orders will go out today and tomorrow, with the bundles and the clear w/ blue ink copies going out later in the week. The black is going out first because the inital A/B copies on clear w/ blue ink were too light (around 110-120 grams) so they needed to be re-pressed. This problem has been fixed and I've been assured the records will be in my hands by the middle of the week. To make up for this slight delay, I've thrown even more free stuff into the bundles and clear w/ blue orders - there will be more lifetime discounts, more free copies of past releases, more secret variants and even a few extra tie-dye jackets to go with your records. As a record collector I know how much it sucks to wait even a day for something you've pre-ordered, so rest assured I am doing what I can to take care of as many of you as possible. That being said this is a one man show, so please be patient as packing orders takes time. I promise everything will arrive to you in pristine condition, and it will be well worth the wait. Be on the lookout for your tracking numbers and please don't hesitate to email or Tweet me with any questions you might have. There will be more Collective Confusion news announced soon.. thank you again for the support! You're awesome mike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collectivemike Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I'm going to go on record as saying while the clear w/blue ink variant came out great, the black variant is my favorite. The black and white photos for the center labels mesh with the black vinyl really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billya Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 If you're in NY, I'd almost go up there to help you out with shipping them. I'm stoked for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emo Revival Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Also after the whole MTS fiasco, you've really killed it as a label owner letting us know whats going on every step. I hope more labels take cue's from you! birdwell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collectivemike Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Yeah in the future I'm going to try and cut down on the PO's. Would rather not have to detail all of the inner workings haha. But since everybody paid they deserved to know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewmatic Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Having a preorder only a week or two before shipment is always nice, but in the case of having advanced preorders, constant updates like you've been doing has really made it just as awesome.

collectivemike Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Morning bump-date... 99% of the black variants left the building Monday and yesterday. There's still a few copies left that I'll pack up tonight and ship out tomorrow. Also, the bundle orders and clear w/blue ink orders that have won a secret variant will ship out tomorrow as well. Everything else is ready to go - just waiting to receive the blue A/B LPs.] A few more pressing info tidbits: - There are 25 secret variants - There are 5 copies of the record that will come with the rainbow jacket - 5 Test presses are bundled in orders So if Paypal sends you a tracking number today/tonight and you ordered a bundle, be ready for the secret variant... PS - Wikipedia says Nick died of breast cancer on the the 5th! That's not true. birdwell and janer05 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shifres Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 How exciting So 25 secret variants? what does it mean exactly? 25 DIFFERENT color versions? how many of each were pressed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
