    Anybody ordered the NY variant from Darkside Records? Just wondered if you got a shipping notice before it arrived? I ordered five days ago but showing as not shipped and I’m concerned they may have oversold. 
    Don’t worry Tino. I ordered something a week ago an it hasn’t shipped yet so I emailed them a they said they got swamped with orders the day after RSD an are working on it. Same thing is said in their Facebook page. But yes you get a email when it ships!
    Brilliant, thanks for letting me know. I can rest easy now!

    They ship it via FedEx so very quick when they’ve posted it. Mine arrived at home in England last Monday (was posted on the Thursday the week before!)

    Are the sticker sheets sealed inside the vinyl? I just received my 10C version and there's no sticker sheet. Unless it's inside the actual sealed vinyl, which I haven't opened yet.
    its in the pocket with the booklet.

    Spun the 10C red (purple) version last night and it sounds great.  Now how do I explain to my wife that two more versions are on the way!?! lol (NY and RSD)
    curious if you hear/feel a difference after listening to the other versions...

    I think it’s getting here today. By all accounts it’s like the regional variants

    I preordered the NY variant from them. I got two shipping notices - one when they shipped and one when it was out for delivery. But I wouldn’t worry. They might be busy.

    It took a week, but my 10C variant arrived today. USPS did not beat it to hell, thankfully, but they did take their sweet time. Yes, it’s purple (or maybe wine-colored would be more fair), but I can also confirm that when held up to the light, it does turn red. I don’t know if they make such a thing as an LED turntable platter or not, but I will look into it. Anyway, I’ve got this and the Deluxe CD and the NY variant I’m going to sell to my brother and the local record store has a large supply of the Missoulas still, so I’ll get one of those for my dad and I think I’ll be done. It’s been fun, but now I’ll just wait (and hope for) a next one.





    * Maybe the "dark matter" being totally changed "in the light" is actually a brilliant concept. ?  10c should use that as an explanation if people question them about the variance.

    That’s great, thanks everyone. Apparently they have a backlog with RSD stock going out. Hopefully mine will be on its way soon!

    I think the regional variants will be a pretty nice Pearl Jam collectors item in the end with a limitation of 1,500 - 2,500.
    I'm a bit surprised there are still copies available for most of the regions, but good news for the fans who decide late to get it.
    Here is an overview of where to order.
    Some don't have it listed online but it is worth writing them a mail. That way I got lucky with some of the variants.

    I was bummed it was too close to the Yield red. happy this is way different.

    I’ve gone 180 on it completely. From dreading its arrival and finding it being Barney purple to now thinking it might be the greatest thing I’ve ever seen.

    I hope they restock. That’s my only hope bcuz I’m not paying you flippers out there. You can go kick rocks.

    I think Santos replied earlier in the thread with that info. But yes, I agree completely. Incredibly cool concept.

    Same! Hoping for that 10c variant re-stock.  Is it likely?

    I think a couple people were selling on Lost Dogs for cost

    Has anyone bit the bullet and applied one of the alternate center labels?  There are some pretty cool looking ones, but I haven't been able to bring myself to do it.  Also, if I change my mind I'm not sure how many you can stick on top of each other before it would start to become a mess.  :)

    Thank you. I’ll just gamble on a restock. Some guy wants like 80+ bucks.

    That is beautiful! I love how they are all unique pieces.
    My collectors mind starts to think you need to have all 1.500 of them to have the complete collection :-)
