    Me too...couldn't take work off on RSD, and no shops where I live (Vancouver) have received any late shipments. Have thought about driving to Seattle when East Street has posted in-store only copies, but alas...still searching. Happy for those who have found them, and good luck to those still searching!

    It’s been over 2 weeks(17 days) and still averaging 3.5 x retail (around $69) but don’t worry cause a guy on here says it’s gonna be “extremely easy” to get, but only  if you are one of the first few people to cart on a random overseas record store that you’ve never heard of before, or can rush down to a record store in some far off place that decides to actually sell them and not flip for profit. 
    If you’re referring to me, the 2 week comment was on December 8th. The price is still dropping by the day, so go ahead and keep being angry.
    Today’s the 22nd. 2 weeks to the day. Weren’t these supposed to be “extremely easy” to get and sitting at retail because 13,000 is WAY more than demand, right? Still averaging around $55, and without demetrios and his valiant efforts to hook people up on this thread, are extremely HARD to find at retail . Go ahead and keep being wrong,

    The price has been steadily dropping for 2 weeks and the availability has been increasing for 2 weeks. Why are you so angry?

    Wouldn't it be better to PM those who are looking for a copy. I'm sure some of these will end up for sale on another site.

    Because even some of the people posting that they're looking for a copy are doing so to put it on the other site

    Has anyone got theirs from the Estonian store that was recommended a couple of weeks ago?
    I contacted them and was told "We just got information from our supplier that a new batch is in the making".
    I don't know how to take that. Is their supplier making bootlegs? or are they aware of a new pressing? or neither, and is just a miscommunication.
    If you mean CDMarket (with a musex.eu email address).  They just kept changing the estimated time from the supplier so I asked for an update but didn't get a strong feeling from them.  I got concerned that they never shut down the link to add more to your cart, meaning they could have literally sold thousands of these, and are sitting on thousands of Paypal dollars, so I've cancelled. 

    PS.  The link still will allow you buy some.  There's no way they'll fulfill everything that was ordered.  
    Agreed.
    If I do end up with one from them, I have the feeling it will be a bootleg. :)
    Does not look very hopeful then. I will hang on for a while longer though. Thanks everyone.
    Not looking good, indeed. I also ordered a copy December 1st, and today CDMarket sent this email (I guess to everyone who ordered a copy from them):
    "Hello dear Pearl Jam lovers! 

    Thank You all for ordering MTV Unplugged LP from us! 

    We'd like to inform You about the reason why this item hasn't reached You still. Sony Music made pre-order for it and so did we. There were huge amount of orders and they promised to fulfill the orders in 15 days, as we promised to You. Now they answered that we will get 5 (!?) copies this year and rest they will send in the beginning of next year. We were very sad to hear it and now we inform You about this. It seems that they didn't expect such a big interest of Perl Jam listeners and pressed much smaller quantity or something. 

    We apologize once again and ask You not to be angry at us, we wait this vinyl as much as You do! 

    Have a nice Holidays and we will inform You immediately if there will be any kind of update!

    CD Market team"

    I wonder what "Sony Music made pre-order for it" actually means? Ordering a number of copies from the plant? Wasn't that number supposed to be 13.000? One thing very shady about CDMarket is that, incredibly, they still have MTV Unplugged up for sale on their site (and slightly discounted too). Any sane person would put it as "out of stock" at this point. I grabbed a copy from Discogs for 43 euro (including shipping), and once I receive it, I will probably cancel the CDMarket order. Even if they will receive more copies next year, no way they will be able to fulfill all orders.
    I got the same email.
    I plan to cancel my order.
    Haven’t gotten an email, but I told them to cancel my order and refund me. If I don’t hear back within 24 hrs I’ll request a refund thru PayPal.
    Good call.  I emailed them on the 13th as I managed to order one through 10c.  They emailed me back saying to hold on longer as they were still expecting copies.   Given that copies were finding their way around I figured why not.  Maybe I could sell it at cost to another 10c'er.   After this email I feel they are hopelessly optimistic about actually getting copies.   I emailed them again to cancel.  Like you, I'll probably go the Paypal route if they try to sluff off the 2nd request.

    Woke up to an email that it was accepted. Money returned to my account. 
    A happy happy joy joy this holiday season to all.

    They really haven't been dropping much though since that dip that occured when a whole bunch of stock popped up about 10 days ago. 

    Fortunately though, most of the ones still available aren't selling at the prices asked likely due to shipping costs being astronomical.  If there's anything to stop the greedy flippers the courier business may put a stop.  Right now the price that seems to be the going rate is about $55-60 Canadian which I think many would be fine with to avoid the lineups on record store day, but since most of the stock is in Europe, you're looking at a minimum $20 even $30 to ship without tracking.  It's harder to stomach being out of pocket, $80-$100 on something that retailed in the $30s.  

    I finally snagged one about 10 days ago for about $66 Canadian all in, but haven't seen one that would have been less than $70 since that day.

    They’re not retail, yet, but there are some available on Discogs everyday over the past week in the $40’s. Shipments are still going out and these are not the “represses.” The universal delays in shipping is well documented at this point and it’s not specific just to this title. People don’t need to listen to me if they don’t want to. I think anyone paying $100 and not willing to be patient is foolish, but that’s just me. People are entitled to their opinions.

    Finally the US sellers are starting to bring the pricing inline with the Euro sellers where shipping is a little more reasonable on this side of the ocean.  That first one is the best shipped price to Canada I've seen since the one I got 10 days ago, but a larger share of my costs went to the shipping rather than the album.

    That’s because the quantity on the secondary market has increased as shipments are trickling in. Last week there were 7 available on Discogs, now there are at least 20. And I know more shops are still expecting shipments and none of this is including the 3,000 copies being repressed.

    These are becoming more readily available. I called Comeback Vinyl in Alpharetta, GA on Saturday and they said they received a big stack of these, but hadn’t been checked into their system yet, and to try back or keep an eye out on their fb and Instagram. I don’t have social media and they had not been put out as of yesterday morning when I called. My wife ended up finding a copy while she was in Raleigh this weekend at a book and vinyl store and gifted it to me last night.
