Not sure if this is better or worse... I've been waiting over a week for a response to an email after they forgot to put one of my records in the box when they packed it. Judging by the Facebook comments after the podcast, I don't think I'm alone in not getting a response.

One out of two is not bad. Especially that Ortolani LP. I still need to order a copy myself, it's one of the ones I keep putting off.

I Guerrieri Dell'Ano 2072 is a fine pull. What do the TPs look like? Black wax or are pic discs?

test presses are just black vinyl with generic labels and they come in that stock mondo sleeve with the titles written on them.

I got The Girl With All The Gifts TP. I'm surprised they still have those around. But this is the first time (out of 3) I've gotten a TP for a record I didn't already have.

As a follow up heads up:

So I ordered Four Flies last week when it came out (still hasn’t shipped, which is fine).

I saw the Ghostbusters warning and even though I have the Sony version, I figure, what the hell, I’ll see if there’s a difference in pressing, maybe it’ll actually be worth something if it’s sold out.
I literally bought the last copy (because I refreshed the page and it was sold out!).
I emailed Mondo to see if they could combine shipping for me (which they’ve done plenty of times by refunding me the shipping for one of the records) and they said that from now on, they will no longer be able to combine shipping on *any* non-printed matter on account of their computerized warehouse situation.

Yeah there's some bargains to be had. Although not a bargain as such, I may need to take advantage of the free shipping and buy Turbo Kid at last.

The fact that one could order Nicolai's The Case of the Scorpion's Tail 2LP for $15 USD shipped worldwide is almost unbelievable. It might not be delivered to your country of residence until 2021, but still, amazing. I think I will go put that album on now.

I haven't been buying anything lately so I decided to grab a few cheap records that I've been putting off.

My order:
LUZ - $20 (perfect price for this with no shipping)
La Setta - $20 (same as above, cheapest it'll be for a while I think)
Warriors of the Year 2072 - $15 (way cheaper than I expected and glad to finally have)

Fuck, I knew I forgot something...
Should have gotten Luz, but now I am too late for the free shipping. Oh well. Next time I will be on it!

What did you end up ordering?

I ended up grabbing two more last night right before the free shipping ended

Profundo Rosso - $25 (I'm a bad Goblin fan, I don't own this OST)
Assassinio Al Cimitero Etrusco - $10 - I do wish this wasn't a picture disc but it seems lots of people say it sounds fine.

I didn't order anything :-)

Most of the cheap stuff I already have. And I bought 10 records in the Waxwork sale (plus the The Thing box) so I didn't want to place another big order that surely will lead to another customs charge. But if I had only bought Luz there would be no customs charge and $20 is a great deal for that record.

Wow, what did you pick up in Waxwork sale? 10 records is a lot :)

Bez, $20 is the regular price for Luz so you only missed the opportunity to ship it for free. It looks like they have 448 left so I'm sure you'll have another opportunity at some point. We'll remind you ;)

Nice grabs, everyone. Here's what I got

Thomas De Quincey, Suspiria De Profundis : Levana And Our Ladies Of Sorrow 7”
Pentagram Home Video - The Satanic Path
Warriors Of The Year 2072
Buio Omega
Wild Beasts
My Dear Killer
House On The Edge Of The Park
The Night Evelyn Came Out Of The Grave
1 Mondo / Death Waltz Test Pressing

I missed out on Dracula A.D. 1972 which blows my mind cause they had around 50 copies & it was gone the following day. I didn't think it'd be that desired.

I almost got Shock, just for the extra tracks, but the feedback I've seen here convinced me otherwise. Maybe if it drops to $10 haha.

i wonder if you could do 20 separate orders for 20 records to avoid customs charges? there were a few i wanted but ultimately bailed at the thought of the additional fees and having to go to the post office to pick them up.

Unfortunately not. I'm sure the email said that multiple orders would be consolidated. I would have ordered more if I could avoid Customs charges. I even thought about getting some other people to order for me some of the $10-15 records so they would fall below the threshold for Customs in the UK, but felt it was unethical, so just ordered the 3 I could afford and left the rest. I ordered:

Turbo Kid
House on the Edge of the Park
My Dear Killer
