What's sad is that we all fear that it might actually be real...We've all been burned before!No way is that picture real!
The replacement discs from Tribe Anthology that I asked for on March 9 are still nowhere to be found...no tracking or anything. Some things never change!
Yea. They fed me some BS about how they had fulfillment issues last month. Even though when they initially placed the order for me in March they said it would ship out the following week...Have you reached out for a follow-up?

all of the episodes as wellAnd the Herbie podcast popped up on iTunes this morning (No purchase required), so I'm guessing it will be shipping soon.
I’d be a little annoyed if I bought the anthology, and it was this delayed, and then they also just threw the podcast up on itunes for anyone to listen to for free before people even have their records. They advertise it like it’s part of the product that they’re selling.And the Herbie podcast popped up on iTunes this morning (No purchase required), so I'm guessing it will be shipping soon.

Interested to know what the response is as, to be honest, I’m a bit hacked off about it. Fair enough release the podcast later but at least have the decency to wait until those 7 people who paid for the box have their product and get to listen to the experience that was allegedly part of the package first.I'm going to shoot them an email and see what they say.
The package was not cheap by any means and to basically give away part of it for free, after saying it was exclusive, AND before the box is even shipped is clearly misleading. I personally see the podcast is an integral part of the set, especially seeing the line-up of participants (which includes Herbie) and they clearly used this as a marketing tool to get people to buy it. Although I was obviously in for the records themselves, I did factor in the podcast into the justification for my purchase of it.
Just to add to the above, their own site has it as 1 of 6 reason things that is included. Seeing as it is no longer an exclusive im assuming they will be giving everyone 1/6th of their money back.........
Im interested to see what their reasoning is.
Edit: Just looking at my emails and they clearly show it as being individual 'drops' alongside each LP.

Completely. They even highlight it as 1 of 6 exclusive elements that are included in the purchase of the set. I cant see how they are not going to receive negative feedback/emails for this.Interested to know what the response is as, to be honest, I’m a bit hacked off about it.

it’s just thoughtless as usual

This. Exactly this. I’ve no issue at all with them putting them out. Just let the subscribers have a window. Or at least wait until the boxes have actually been dispatched. Then let the world inI bought all the anthologies including this one, and I don't mind them being public at all. I actually like them all being more easily accessible if I want to relisten (not that I have or necessarily ever will).
But I agree it is a legit complaint considering the cost. They should probably at least have a window of time where it's exclusive to Anthology buyers before putting it completely out there for all. Maybe until the next anthology is released?
