Vinyl Thread [ARCHIVED] • Page 1208

I haven’t yet - looking back through my email from the last time I ordered through them, it took 7 biz days to get shipping confirmation. Currently, I think currently we’re at 4. Especially given it’s a sale, they might just be a little slammed. But iirc a lot of people here have had issues with them so I’m keeping an eye on it

 

Linkin Park new album From Zero PO's are up!

Linkin Park Official Store

 

Looks like a second press of Saosin is in the works:

 

Yeah, about that… Watching the live stream now. I dunno man.

 

Atleast change the band name

 

I didn't mind it. She wasn't BAD. But then again it was just old LP songs so we'll see how a full length sounds.

 

Re: Linkin Park her vocals sound like they could be good but yeah, strange decision on the band name.

 

Challengers soundtrack is up for preorder on Amazon if you want free shipping. ETA is November 1st.

Who would cancel their order? lol.

The pressing is less limited? Fuck that, refund me.

 

people who only care about exclusivity are weird

 

Yeah, there are plenty of times I've passed up the more-exclusive variant because it's ugly or I just like another one better.

 

Just got mine this morning.

 

I didn't really order the record based on exclusivity, I ordered because that was the one that was actually available (and the smash looked cool with the album art). I can see cancelling if you were trying to resell, but I don't really care otherwise.

 

Starting this weekend off right!

 

Yeah I don’t get people choosing purely because it’s the most exclusive variant - unless you like multiple variants. As fourstarters said, probably the resellers but I couldn’t care of the numbers if I like the variant.

 

I’ll admit that exclusivity is a factor when I’m making my selection. But the biggest factors for me are: original artwork, aesthetics, and price. Exclusivity is kinda the tiebreaker if I’m torn between two variants I like roughly equally.

 

I’m just saying I would not cancel my order purely based on the quantity increasing. I would have already chosen the variant because of the other factors mentioned in comments above.

 

Here's the 2nd helping of Saosin.
