cfrancese5 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 On a side note this set sounds amazing so far... Seriously, I only spun one of the albums but I am really happy with how these sound... everyone should be happy. Cake is fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruffy...the janitor Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I keep going back and forth in understanding the anger over more pressed, but then I realize mine is 1/1 because it's mine and I'm happy with it. I waited in line for three hours and had some good talks with the other people in line. I think I liked the waiting to buy it. That's just me and obviously I got one on RSD, so I'm a bit biased.

TPS_PIMO Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 What I think is unfair about the "diehard fans" who want to feel special and are asking for a black repress is that they might have been standing in line for HOURS while others might not have had that chance. I was considering it for RSD but the store I went to apparently allowed people to walk out with multiple copies... I was about 30th in line or so and saw the first 10-15 people walk out with multiple box sets. How is that fair for the other fans who did what they could and got on line when their schedules allowed only to be told they sold out a few minutes ago? Keep them colored and slap a second pressing or a "NON RSD 2014" label somewhere. If Cake presses them on colored vinyl again doesn't take away the fact that you spent hours on line. Keep the RSD 2014 sticker on your packaging if you want and let everyone have a fair chance at owning these albums on this format... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just a normal guy kevin Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 When people get preachy and misty eyed about Cakegate and drop the "Record Store Day is supposed to be about limited edition vinyl that gets us out to support record shops..." bit, it makes me wonder why they leave out the whole social, experiential aspect of participating in person. I wonder how their girlfriend and friends who camped out with them and kept them company feel when they talk about how waiting in line was now a terrible waste of time.

Isn't it ultimately your fault that you weren't 1st in line? Or should you have someone else to blame for your tardiness? 30th person in line should have in no way expected to have received one of these in the first place, considering most stores had maybe 1 copy.This is also ignoring the fact that this very website (and others) had the link to purchase the boxset posted for hours (not seconds or minutes but HOURS). Whenever a company/band/artist/etc... sells something limited and there's far more demand than supply, there is ALWAYS bitching after the sellout. If you don't like the bitching, don't sell limited shit. Simple as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saint Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 My order still says Hold - Backorder. Are they just swamped? They wouldn't be holding my order until the new pressing comes, would they? EDIT: I see this question may have already been answered, but I'm still confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been there (for RSD) or anywhere for that matter due to my work schedule, but I've always wanted to. If so, do they get many releases?

macoloid Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 No. I got it from World Records. World is starting to stock more vinyl again. Going underground is great! He gets in a lot of different stuff from punk, rock, reggae, rap etc. used and new releases at a decent price. Definitely worth checking out. Its a pretty small place so its a good place to kill a couple hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully next year I can make it out to RSD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saint Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Found an answer to my own question. It appears that my order, which is on backorder currently, will be processed for the second pressing of the box set. Kinda bummed as I wasn't looking to wait.

pitje007 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Mine still says "ready for shipping", i just mailed them about it, here´s their reply...: "well, your order is currently on the bubble, most probably will ship in the 2nd set, but there are a limited number (and yours might be one) which we can fill out of a little reserve of boxsets we are getting. plz bear with us, know that no matter how this plays out, your order is going to be filled." kinda messed up...

If you don't like the bitching, don't sell limited shit. Simple as that. Not everyone can just drop what they're doing and line up 18 hours in advance for releases like that. If the store had limited to one per person then it probably wouldn't have sold out so quick since everyone in front walked out with 2 or 3 copies.

Letseatchairs Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 my store had one and the first person in line got it so anyone who didn't get there at like 8 pm the night before lost. I don't get what the big deal is just be happy you got it first and be glad other fans will be able to have it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just a normal guy kevin Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 If you really wanted that box set, you'd have been first in line. If we all truly wanted it, we'd all have been first in line. An infinite number of lines. All of us first. All of us getting a box set. If we had only wanted it enough. ratbrain and thespungo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who contacted them for a tracking # actually know if yours went out yet? Cause from the sounds of this they haven't even got them yet. I'm hoping for those of us who got "shipped" notifications that we will be in the first batch and won't have to wait for however long it takes to get the next set pressed.
