Bandbox: an uncompensated review of an interesting new club

Got my Plans today finally. It sounds pretty nice! Not a fan of the numbering on a sticker though. I'm also pretty sure my C and D labels are switched. However, I must give kudos to Bandbox's packing. It came in a thick mailer with bubble wrap on both sides as well as bubble wrap corners. The magazine is nice too.

Yeah. I thought the number on a sticker was a little weird too.

It's not the first time I've seen this but it's never great. It would have been fine if it was in a re-sealable sleeve but it was in flimsy shrink wrap. My attempted transplant to another outer sleeve was unsuccessful :( .

My labels weren't actually switched. The clear vinyl just made it a little hard to tell what side the grooves were on.
 
Can someone walk me through how Bandbox works exactly? I just signed up for Waxahatchee's St. Cloud on a monthly plan...when will it ship? And when will the next month's pick be announced? I probably will dip in and out and skip some/most months...will there be plenty of time to do that?

Thanks!

Did you just sign up this month? Have you been charged yet? If they have charged you already I would think you should be getting a shipping notification shortly. I have already got my shipping notification for Waxahatchee. They don't have records of the month per say, you just pick from their inventory of exclusives or regular pressings. I think Bandbox subscriptions renew on the 28th. I know they have some more exclusives in the works but they have not been annouced. You just have to make your selcection by the 28th.

Yeah, I just signed up this morning and was charged but under Subscription Orders in my profile it says next shipment February 28 so I wasn't sure if that's when Waxahatchee ships or my next month's order.

I would reach out to them to make sure because that sounds confusing.

They got back to me pretty quickly when I reached out.

How does it sound? Any indication of what the pressing is/if it's just a color reissue? Their exclusives have been intriguing for me...I stopped being a subscriber but was really pleasantly surprised with their CS and how quickly they shipped items to me when I was a member.
 

that's the new exclusive! Mountain Goats - All Eternals Deck anniversary pressing
