kubi Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 Hrmm still no shipping confirmation despite an email saying I was supposed to get one today. I must be patient! I've got my Spotify and Target copy. Waiting for the clear vinyl, tee and bracelet to arrive.

peter Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 As others have reported, Amazon US has pushed back delivery estimates for the box set to mid-July. Which seems crazy ridiculous — I’m definitely considering cancelling that order and sourcing elsewhere. (I really fail to understand why this is so much more difficult this time around? It’s never been this difficult to obtain the box set...) On a brighter note, I received my 2 CD SHM-CD from Japan today. So there’s some progress. Still no standard albums from tour ticket bundle redemptions! Ridiculous! Sorry if I seem materialistic — the music is what is most important, but I do love all the extra images, too. Whoever, as a designer, thought it was a great idea in the 2CD booklet to place the image of her playing the saxophone right in the center of the spread, so that her face falls right in the gutter, perhaps needs to think more carefully in the future.
karbatal Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 I'm still waiting for my USA bundle with the lithography. If only it counted for the second week sales
horn Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 Looking at the brighter side, maybe those delays will help to sustain 2nd week sales. Sadly MX streaming is not strong enough. Ariana Grande 2nd week sales was 151K (30% increase as compare to 1st week sales), all thanks to her hardcore fans strong streaming (>2 billion streaming) which eventually got TYN certified platinum.

Why do you think Toilet is going backwards and targeting teens with this album? Streaming all day is something most grown ups with lives simply can't do.

Between highschool and homework and meeting my friends I could only listen to music for one or two hours!

Je5u5 Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 Any news on when the UK store is planning to ship the tshirt + clear vinyl bundles?

Ghost Town Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 What I got so far in the Madame X saga Standard (Walmart) Deluxe (Target - bought 2 copies keeping 1 sealed and 1 open) Super Deluxe (Japan - but buying another copy to replace dents & creases on mini book) Black Double Vinyl (deep crease on the upper corner of vinyl cover but not bothered by that) Black Cassette So much for my goal of only buying 3 copies of each.

burning_up Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 Sorry if this has been discussed already, but do all the vinyl copies of the album state that Future is on side A on the sleeve when in fact it plays on side B? I bought my copy in Canada and was wondering if this mistake is on every LP.

Did you get yours from Amazon? You can always request a replacement with no cost and yet you get to keep your existing copy. Please ensure you take a picture of the defects before filing the complaints. I had bought STR LP from Amazon but has creased on the LP cover. I filed a complaint and they sent me a replacement but still have creased on it. Then I filed another complaint and they finally sent me a flawless LP. In short, I got 3 STR LP for the price of one.

The sticker for my rainbow vinyl is accurate but I think only French ones have accurate stickers.

burning_up Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 I didn’t buy my copy on amazon but that’s pretty sweet that they replace it and you get to keep the original. It seems the misprint is pretty widespread then.
HolidayGuy Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 So, the regular vinyl edition has the 15 tracks and credits on the sleeves, it looks? FYE is having a 25% off sale today, so contemplating getting it. EDIT: Says it's not currently available.

I bought my copy in Canada and was wondering if this mistake is on every LP. Only some pressings of the Rainbow edition correct this mistake. All editions with a cover come with the same one and a sticker with the alternate barcode if applicable or the country of manufacture slapped on. As the tracklist of the picture disc is a sticker in itself I guess it was the easiest one to solve. I'd assume the mistake on the other versions is not very likely to be solved anytime soon. We still have copies of Erotica with the wrong copyright information and that was released in 2012 I think.
