timbrh2001 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I could see why they would want the customer to go through the order process a second time if ordering more than 2 LPs. Doesn't really apply to yesterday's drop but If there's a drop like the TFTC 7"s where they went quickly, it would help people looking for individual orders for their personal collection and reduce the chance of someone who's just looking to toss up 8 copies on eBay.

Shelby Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I struggled trying to ignore these two releases, but caved. I'm about to watch Blue Sunshine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point and, if true, good for them. Two problems though. First, of all their releases TFTC (and ghibli) had 3 distinct packages you could choose from so, in those cases, it would've hosed real collectors as well as flippers. Second, if their trying to spread out the vinyl, why let everyone who didn't follow their new rule keep what they bought? Why not just refund them down to two copies like they do with posters (one copy)? Maybe they're using these less in demand drop as a trainer since it didn't sell out, but I bet it's an even bigger clusterfuck next time. I struggled trying to ignore these two releases, but caved. I'm about to watch Blue Sunshine. Haha! It's a pretty wild, uneven movie, but I like it. The score is very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobbesthecat Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I had just posted that Paranorman would be their RSD release and that it was gonna be another crappy picture disc, he simply responded "it's not a picture disc". Thanks for the heads up this \o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The score is very cool. I don't think they would refund someone on a drop that hasn't even soldout because that would mean tossing away money they can't guarantee getting back. It wouldn't shock me if they refunded orders for any low run high demand vinyl drops that they might have moving forward though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 ordered 1 of each of these new Mondo releases. Love the album art & really solid soundtracks We're not allowed to like the artwork. BuzzersonKillwell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzersonKillwell Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 We're not allowed to like the artwork. No, no no. You just can't like the visual MORE than you like the audio. If that is the case you need to buy a "Here Comes the Devil" print. If the print doesn't actually exist, as is the case here, you should print out an image of the vinyl artwork from an inkjet printer. Feel free to call that a Giclee print. I think the additional shipping charge here is for people that bought 2 of each thing in a single purchase, not more than two of a particular LP. So unless they make a habit of putting multiples scores or soundtracks online at the same time in the future, this won't be an issue. Right? andrewlucas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can even make 24"x36" by taping multiple pieces of paper together. Its gonna be awesome. Anyone want some bootleg horkey or stout prints? eskimosnow27 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooks Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I wish I had an old table and disposable income. I'd poke a hole in a Drive poster, put it on the table, and listen to the beautiful artwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stl_ben Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Good Deals? The Blue Sunshine has been selling for $200? Where are you seeing good deals? I'm sure that will drop some, but doubt people will be giving them away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that will drop some, but doubt people will be giving them away. The one selling for $200 seems to be event exclusive. Blue/white mix. I think the retail variant will be transparent blue, and cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbrh2001 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 What oscars drops? Last year they dropped a number of prints throughout the Oscars broadcast. Hasn't been announced what's dropping this year but most expect it to happen again. They'll announce most of the prints later in the week.
