    We should move to government issued vinyl boxsets. Everyone gets one, whether they want it or not, and nobody is special.

    Funny. I was going to go that route too...

    I can't wait to get my nicest and see if I got a test pressing!

    I know it's early, but I'd like to nominate that as the post of the day. It takes a lot to make me chuckle at 7am.

    Did anyone's cake order actually ship? I received email confirmation on the 24th with no tracking. Had to email them to get tracking. When I track it only says electronic info received on the 25th. Seems shitty to pay outrageous shipping to have them kind of misrepresenting the facts. Agree or disagree? Discuss amongst yourselves!

    I would be pissed as hell if I paid $350 then they printed more... but I'm also smart and seasoned enough to know you never jump on that first inflated flipper wave... even more so before the fat lady sings on all of them being put on public sale.

    For this particular item I don't care if they print more. It has been released less than a week and I plan on spinning these anyway

    People complaining about the "outrageous" shipping prices and not getting tracking information need to understand that this shipping method wasn't put in place for the buyer, it was for CAKE being able to see who's getting their product and who's bullshitting about "missing" packages. They're not going to give you a tracking number unless you ask for it because it's for them to track, not you.

    That makes sense, but almost every single purchase I've made online recently from most places has provided the tracking info. It seems to be a fairly common practice. They should maybe hold off on sending emails saying an order shipped if it has not actually shipped. With all these orders being cancelled from different places on these limited edition items, people are on edge. Thanks again for the link!

    And just to update, they were unable to tell me why it hasn't shipped yet. Just that they would be able to look more into it on Monday if it still hasn't shipped, 4 days after I received an email telling me it has been shipped. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a straightforward process when paying an extra amount for shipping. At least that's how I would run a business. Maybe they are using the Ten Club to ship!

    I actually haven't pulled them all out yet. Listening to them one by one. So far no test press.

    Mine hasn't shipped yet. It was ready to be picked up and expected to ship on 4/24. I emailed today and they said this:

    the 24th was an expected date, however your order is on the bubble between getting out this week and being in the 2nd shipping round. fingers crossed

    Mine arrived today too. Shocked to see it when I got back a few minutes ago. Packaged beautifully and well worth the shipping price to get it in such great shape.

    The records look awesome! Will start spinning them a bit later.

    Really happy I decided to pick this up. It looks top notch!

    Funny that people have gotten theirs and I still haven't even gotten a shipping notification. Not the least bit concerned. ;)

    Check your spam folder. That's where mine was.
