Was out with the family yesterday so missed both the Waxwork drop and gnashing of teeth.
When I logged in at 8pm UK time everything was gone from WW. Luckily I saw it listed at Transmission by chance and bagged a regular one there at the last minute along with a tape of Basket Case for just over £50 for both delivered... and now count myself very fortunate having read through the posts on here (even though the cracking ice deluxe and booklet would have been cool, I would personally rather drop that sort of cash on an OG).
I think any label has to weigh up the virtues of exclusivity to create a buzz and the potentially negative PR risk of P***ing off folks who then can't get one.
As others have pointed out been a long time since we've had bunch of people back on here chewing the fat together. Shame in a way that it is exclusivity or moaning about shipping that gets people engaged.... all about the music at the end of the day, which most STBC-ers appreciate ;)
