thefinalsound Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Shipping from Amazon UK for me has been all over the map time wise, but it always arrives. I've had things show up way before the estimated date, and a little after. Agaetis Byrjun appears to no longer be available on Amazon UK, so that might make your decision of where to order it a bit easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoopydoggy2002 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Damn I waited and missed this. I want both albums...but I feel like $60 is a lot for 2 albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deletedunknown Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I went ahead and told Amazon that I'm past due their est. arrival of ( ) & AB. We'll see what happens there. It'll probably happen to show up today and make me feel like an ass. I've been having a lot of mailorder problems lately for some reason, though, so I'm paranoid on that front as well.

Guest Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 i love the fact that they just call it the "more expensive version" and provide no details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 did anyone ever figure out what the difference was between those two versions, aside from the small money difference Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it is a pre-order for the version that will be available domestically for RSD. Blue vinyl, yeah? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I highly doubt it's colored vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I highly doubt it's colored vinyl. Oh right, blue vinyl was part of your fake response from Rough Trade. Guess I assumed the color, at least, was true and that the entire catalog repress was the joke. At any rate, I still bet it's whatever we'll be getting for RSD.

blugel Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 i don't even see hardly any Sigur Ros products on Rough Trade's page anymore, much less these two titles on vinyl...they all sold out already?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinyl Fury Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Damnit, it's been 30 days and my amazon uk order hasn't arrived. They processed a refund but I'm still really hoping they show up safely at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicity Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Ordered both from Rough Trade and never got an email about AB getting canceled. Lame. But it looks like I was charged for ( ) last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circuit bored records Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Damnit, it's been 30 days and my amazon uk order hasn't arrived. They processed a refund but I'm still really hoping they show up safely at some point. I posted this in another thread, but I have two Amazon.uk orders and two fatcat orders from a few months ago that still haven't shown up. I don't know what's going on with USPS international shipping lately, but I'm not a fan at this point. I'm not going to be ordering anything from overseas for a while.

At least those will (hopefully) arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefinalsound Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I ordered from Amazon UK on March 15th, it shipped a day later with a delivery estimate of April 5th. Nothing ever showed, I just got a refund and now ordered Agaetis Byrun and ( ) through the Amazon marketplace for about $10 more than my original order.

thefinalsound Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Got my order from amazon US yesterday (from the UK) So a marketplace order from a UK shop through amazon us? When did you place your order? Just wondering how long to expect for shipping, I just did the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianmorgante Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 I ordered mine and it's expected to arrive sometime this week. I also got confirmation emails that it had shipped from the UK, so hopefully it arrives. I only ordered ( ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyfranciosa Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 the last 2 packages I had coming from Amazon UK were beat to bloody hell. one was the new Suede LP, which took 5 weeks to arrive and was so badly damaged in shipping that the record was unplayable and warped worse than any record I've ever seen. something bad is going on in Royal Mail to international customers.

tonyfranciosa Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 yeah me either. typically I get stuff on the east coast of the US within a week. hopefully it's not a new standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenewflesh_ Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I ordered () and Agaetis Byrjun from an amazon UK seller who had both in stock. Didn't want to order overseas but fuck it. I don't think my local store is getting the RSD release and it's probably my only chance to get both of em in one shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianmorgante Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 Got my version of ( ) in the mail yesterday - package was in perfect condition, and record sounds awesome.

I definitely recommend this to anyone still looking to get it! Could you describe the packaging? Is it a double gatefold or a single sleeve containing the lp's. Also does it have a die-cut outer with the ( )'s cut into it? If so what is it made of? Plastic or paper? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
