Of the should've shipped category, Judas Priest has not and is still showing as a pre-order (and still showing April). I assume at this point it is April 2024

Yeah, should've shipped means they're still labeled preorders and haven't gone yet. The product page date is the month that I put in there.

I've wondered that too. There were some other pressings of that Judas Priest that I think have already come out since this was announced. And I'd guess that with all the Mould boxsets getting blown out on the cheap right before this was announced that it didn't sell well.

But since they are licensing these titles, would that even be possible? I have no idea how all this works.

I don't really care all that much as long as I end up getting what I ordered. I always have plenty to listen too.

I am not expecting the Luna to ship for awhile since this is an exclusive Bandbux release. Though I feel bad for the band because this will make them look bad and be totally out of their control.

But those Lush records are just exclusive variants and are already available in standard pressings

I’d be all over that Torres record if I didn’t have the VMP exclusive already. That’s a no brainer at that price. I own the Lissie as well and definitely paid more for than $9.99. That Torres deserved a much better fate than being released a month before the pandemic started.
 
Hey, fellow record collector!

You are receiving this email because you pre-ordered a copy of our exclusive colored pressings of Yellowcard's Ocean Avenue Acousticand/or Southern Air. Both albums are slated to ship together beginning the week of 9/11. Look for an email when your order ships with tracking info included.

We appreciate your patience and thank you for your support.

Thanks,

-Team Bandbox
