@Piratenovelist - thanks for the comment. FYI - I pinged them in July 23rd, and I heard the same thing from them. If I do not receive shipping notice by Aug 23rd, they will get a “nastygram” from me. Its not really that important to me, just want to be done at this point.
Mine shipped, too! Mofi Blonde on Blonde in stock at Music Direct :

This was my first vault package and while the music is great, I agree for the price I was expecting a bit nicer presentation, e.g., jacket + sleeves. The DVD case is also cardboard, FWIW, not so much of an issue but el-cheapo route, too.
Here's mine, album sounds great!
Ever-present dust is maddening :)
I also did some research to figure out how to clean the 45 with my VPI cleaning machine and found a tip that worked well for me: use plastic wrap and some tape:
Thanks for the links. I ordered the $30 2LP from EarWax and have yet to receive an confirmation either. So, crossing fingers, I hope this exists. Not sure I want to splurge for the $80 version yet. BUT MAYBE :)
My first month with Wax Buyers - the Skull Session AOTM made the trip across the pond and looks great!
Thanks to @Edd, he is great with communication/support and I like his taste in music. Looking forward to the next albums... :)
Well it's good to know I shouldn't take it personally, ha!
I have taken advantage of most of the Target 3 for 2 offers in the past and had fantastic success with good packaging/delivery....until now. One of the albums I received was damaged and now these cancellations.
It's ok, I will try...
Yesh, I kept getting those emails to confirm the delay and then poof it was cancelled. The Target rep I spoke with basically told me there was nothing he could do to reorder. Hope you have better luck than I did!

Bummer, FYI Target just cancelled two of my Tone Poet pre-orders for Jackie M and Bobby H as well saying that I had not responded to approve the delay even though I had indeed done this. I just gave a call and it turns out these are sold out for them, so the message I received wasn't accurate...
I recently joined Secretly and both of my shipments also left Ann Arbor to go to Pittsburgh, then Detroit and then.....back to Ann Arbor where it is to be delivered 12 days later. This is not right. :( I'm going to ask if there is another option for shipping, would be willing to pay a bit...
Yeah, last time was a gong show for me as it was for many others. Spent 30 minutes or so trying to make the transaction as I had to remove multiple copies due to slow response and then ultimately receive no copies. This time was a much better experience. :)
Thanks as well! Got both this time, too. Website worked easily/normally for me unlike the last time.
Site still says both in stock for me.
MikeH were you able to finally make your purchase?
Edit -yes, indeed. :)
