Maybe a day, once or twice! not 6 weeks, every single time i order from them! i'd say 98% next day delivery from amazon is a decent play. 3 things ordered 3 times late and by months or weeks... thats 100% shitshow!

JAxlMorrison Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Now that it’s a day later, let’s try to analyze this logically. What are the potential reasons for delay? It could be an issue at the pressing plant. It could be a logistical issue as far as packaging and shipping. OR, and of course this is what a lot of us think, band interference (song isn’t ready, album art sucks etc,) or management incompetence. But what do we think really held this up?

SoulMonster Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 2 minutes ago, allwaystired said: Nothing. They either can't be bothered/don't want to release it digitally or the song has been shelved/isn't ready. Pick your choice! I believe there is a plan to put it on streaming services at some point down the line. Maybe already next week to coincide with Halloween. This is pure speculation from my side, though. And they are not going to change their plan simply because a few diehard fans gets their panties in a twist because the vinyl release is delayed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRoseCDII Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 The last hope we have is that it’s still coming in other regions soon. Apparently no one outside of NA has gotten this email. Maybe it’ll still arrive elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just sayin Well, you're not basing your opinion on anything than your assumption then. And yes, I'm very aware of how the band never cared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the band and I have been reminding you about for this for years, why does it not stick? They are dysfunctional. Apart from touring, expect them to not do anything according to logic or promises. That's the level you need to be at to go unscathed through GN'R fandom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not I will sue them. They promised it today. No they didn't, they said shipped ...not delivered & this has been delayed Are some people plain thick or unable to read & understand basics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we agree, you have to expect delays when ordering stuff. And now you have to realize that such delays will obviously potentially be longer for vinyls that aren't even pressed yet. 4 minutes ago, JAxlMorrison said: Now that it’s a day later, let’s try to analyze this logically.

I doubt it is only logistic because that shouldn't take weeks to sort out. So I lean towards the vinyls simply not being manufactured completely yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are dysfunctional. Apart from touring, expect them to not do anything according to logic or promises. That's the level you need to be at to go unscathed through GN'R fandom. Once again, your level of graciousness and the sheer self-sacrifice required by the patient, methodical explanation and regular reiteration of this clearly evident material to anyone willing to listen is admirable, to say the least. The only small hitch I would point out if I dare is that for someone who poses as neutral and logical, you surely spend a hell of a goddamn time defending TB basically on any occasion you can jump on. Sometimes shit’s their fault, sometimes not, and generally yes it’s all up to the one man anyway, but he doesn’t control it all. Yet when I take this logic and compare it with the amount of cases you’re defending TB, there’s a huge discrepancy in basic math and logic. Like there’s some sort of a bias or inner agenda or something. So – and pardon my humble and obviously erroneous conclusions – either you’re bullshitting us, or you’re bullshitting yourself. Off to drink now, cheers! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustard Tiger Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I've just been in a live chat with customer support for the UK store. Been told that the order is indeed delayed, but they don't have a date for when it is delayed to. Once that date has been finalised UK orders should get the dreaded email 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axljungle Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 6 hours ago, SoulMonster said: You think bands press and package vinyls and other physical products BEFORE they start selling them? Of course, at less some thousands copies. Bands as popular as Guns N’ Roses did it. It’s nothing new. And not only music, when someone want to start selling something, the first thing is make some products and their package before start selling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real McCoy Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I just hope we get the next round of locker leaks at this point out of spite if they can’t at least get the General up for stream/download in the next few weeks. Sometimes I really hate that I’m a fan of this damn band. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
