Not sure how many they used to release but all I know I used to miss out on them lol. Once I get notice that it's up for sale, I log on stat to buy even though it looks like it sticks around for a while lately, still, rather not risk missing out yet again. Variants are cool but I can live without, love me some great cover art though :-)

Mondo didn't release any pressing #s for several releases after The Beyond. I'm glad to see them doing it again with these recent releases.

[quote=11245]Here’s, presumably, the final word on this whole thing:

“Because the mailers fit one or two LP sets only, any additional LPs purchased need to be shipped separately.<br>
We would typically hold your order until you paid for the extra shipping. We would also contact you about making the payment to us.

However, since you have already contacted us about this, please send $7.00 to store@mondotees.com via PayPal and reply here when you have done so.”

Hey Mateo, did you ever send that additional $7 to them? And if so, was it shipped? My order still shows as processing & it's been 2 weeks now. I personally have not received any emails from them requesting additional funds for shipping.

I can tell you that I haven't gotten an email telling me to pay more, nor have I gotten a shipping notice of my records....

I'm in the same boat as both unpopular poet and Bub. I still went ahead and ordered a couple copies of Omen, which I need like a fucking hole in the head as I've got several of the original already.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I don't wanna miss out on the variant so this waiting game kinda sucks.

Wow, same boat as you guys. Ordered doubles but never received an email about sending more money for shipping. When do you suppose they planned to send this notice out?

So am I to understand it is now my responsibility to inform mondo they undercharged for shipping which I only found out about because I read it on a forum? It's not my fault their shipping calculator doesn't work.

Maybe I can cancel the order and pick them up at my local record store

Yeah, the system is garbage. I paid the extra $7 because I brought it to their attention when I asked the question. The person who responded to my queries said it would probably be "a couple of weeks" before I received a shipping notice. I'm giving them until Monday before I ask again. Mondo almost always ships orders from small to big, but that's no excuse for these taking so long considering folks who ordered two have had theirs for days. That said, I've often received records from Mondo without any kind of notification whatsoever.

Yeh, it's kind of bush league of Mondo. I can understand shit happens, but at the minimum they could have sent a mass email to buyers explaining the shipping snafu. That email should have gone out in a few days, not weeks. At this point it appears they want the mistake to go viral so you will be forced to inquire after you've gone 2 months without your order. I prefer to give the benefit of doubt, but there's a fine line between being too busy and just having shit customer service. When I do get my email asking for more shipping money I am opting to cancel my order instead just out of principle. Rant over.

Aaaaand scene!

I just got a shipping notice from mondo for my remaining 3 combined copies of blue sunshine/hctd. 2 packages as would be expected with their mailers but they never asked for any more $$s for the extra shipping. Maybe this is because they realized they should fix their cart/checkout to match their stated policies.

I got my shipping notice today too, and they did not ask for additional shipping. Now I feel like a huge dick for my previous comments. Sometimes collecting can make a good man go bad. Apologies to Mondo. I just fucked up my vinyl karma for a month. I smell of shame and moldy record sleeves. :-(

I've got no reply yet from them but I'm in Canada so my orders might get taken care of a little further down the line I guess

I got my notification as well. @Nathan - I hope yours comes soon - it would suck if you're the one person on the board that gets left out!

AH ! yeah thanks 4000days, I see the pictures coming up online of people's copies already in their hands and I'm feeling a bit left out haha and I have that bad feeling that even though I ordered two HCTD and 2 BS (LPs and VHS) and 2 Omens, that I'm not gonna get lucky on variants.

I'm very patient though, hopefully everything will turn out fine.

Disappointing. Inevitable, but disappointing.

I'm probably the only one on here who wants that soundtrack. LOL. I haven't seen the movie, but what little I heard from the score, I liked.

I did enjoy it. I ended up getting the CD, and I'm fine with just that.

I don't like the artwork. If ever there was a score where the cover should be a still fom the film this is it.

I was in two minds as to whether I would buy this if it ever appeared on vinyl and I still am.

maybe it's just me, but i find that i am just not that impressed with scores for newer films. there are a few exceptions of course, but i much prefer the music from films from the 70s and 80s. i have all of mondo's releases thus far, so it would be a pity to miss out on one, but i'm just not sure about this...
