Dark matter shipping label printed!

Was a bit disappointed that the album was arriving after release but listened on Apple and the wife bought me the CD to tide me over. First CD that has been purchased since early 2000s. The 10C variant is worth it to me but I totally understand why some won’t preorder again.

we’ll get them in a few days, just be patient!

I am more shocked by people claiming to have gotten previous pre-orders on-time than the albums arriving late. I feel like it's common knowledge that 10C orders aren't exactly timely, especially vinyl.

Record store never fails. And only €45 instead of the extortion from 10C. 

Gotta ask, what lights did you use for the front?

Very basic mate, but looks excellent 

Thanks!

I assumed i wouldn’t get it on release day, but the lack of tracking is frustrating. Mine says it left the UPS facility in Fife, WA at 1:30am 4/18 and there’s been no updates (and no estimated delivery date) for more than 72 hours now. Still expecting it tomorrow, but showing some progress would be nice. At least i have my RSD finds from yesterday to keep me distracted.

It’s even more common knowledge that vinyl orders in general aren’t exactly timely.

Which is understandable, but isn't on PJ/10C.

My CD came on Saturday. Vinyl delivery date is still "unknown". My Taylor Swift pre-order CD (from March 6th) is also in the same situation. Both might be here today, but the USPS doesn't know where they are (so probably not).

Last week mine said delivery today but it’s still not in town. Shocker.

Directly, you’re right. But they are the ones who chose to ship UPS, and charged a lot for that shipping. 

Also, still no updated tracking info since my shipment left Fife, WA more than four days ago.

Mine hasn't really been shipped yet. And it usually takes a month to arrive where I live in Spain. I hope I'll get it by June. I pre-ordered the 10C vinyl variant but I bought the cd last friday in a local store

Hey now, I got Avocado early.  Maybe I'm still living in 18-years-ago by getting disappointed lol

Anyone from Canada received the CD yet?

No excuses. If they can get it to retailers by release date then 10c can make sure to get it to customers by release date. Period.

My April 22 scheduled delivery just popped back up on tracking… in Ohio. I’m in Syracuse. I think USPS’s estimate may not be right.

Ups and for that matter USPS is the same as far as updating. Both have said it was in one place and it was already delveried 

TheBeardedFellow

My CD came Saturday, but the vinyl is still--with y'all's in Ohio.  Never actually had an estimated delivery date for either. And yeah, retailers had it plenty of time...

BSully

Mine too. 
It said Monday delivery, but was sitting happily in my mailbox waiting on me when I got home from buying the record on Saturday.

Shipping in bulk so that a retailer can set up displays and sell the item on release day is different than sending single copies to individual customers. They're not tying to time the retailer shipments to arrive the morning of the 19th.

Just got home and found three packages* by my door. All I can say is: "The waiting drove me mad/You're finally here and I'm a mess..."

*Why these items ostensibly sent from the same place were shipped separately is a mystery.

I think rather than risking an error of something missing in a package when they are packing up thousands of orders, the 10c just boxes one item up individually and sends it, making it easier to track and less risk of a shortage.
