Ah, sorry to repeat you! I tried to check it and was paywalled

All 4 of the vinyl/collectible CD "bonus tracks" are also part of the 2nd half of the album. No idea if that makes it any more or less likely to have a standalone physical release!

I think that one is about Matty Healy

Could the "surprise" just be that they're carrying all 4 album variants? One local posted that they'll have a Taylor Swift RSD surprise but another posted that they'll have all the variants but the more limited ones won't arrive until later Friday/ definitely by Saturday

Last time I used store credits, I used an incognito browser to check out. I eventually figured out the issue was that you need to fully log out of Shopify to get them to appear.

The release was made and the pics were added 3 months ago by someone who had it. It has been in people's collections awhile--I'd briefly made a comment there in early Feb there confused as to how these people had it in their collections, but then I remembered about the shipping without the zine...

Yep, there are some people on Discogs who got it that way: https://www.discogs.com/release/29323543-Various-Barbie-The-Album

They list more stores selling the Dinked edition here, Norman and Drift seem to be the cheapest to ship to the US: Kate Nash

Barbie is another one that only shipped if people requested they send it without the zine. Also, They Might Be Giants shipped with the zine.

You can see everything that's available to order in the Shop app (55 records). If you don't have the app, I can chop up my very long screenshot of them there to post.

It looks like one can still buy from Bandbox in the Shop app though (and when I clicked more details on an item there it took me to it on the Bandbox site and it looked like I could order it there too)... But they definitely aren't shipping anything--last week I used my rewards points and a gift...

My impression was that all the 40% off sales are to empty out VMP's old stock because they will be moving warehouses with the new plant? I recall that's what the initial press around VMPressing suggested.

They just sent this:

It's a new Caroline Polachek song featuring Weyes Blood:
