Hi friends! As you may know, we had a bit of a delay with the Audra vinyl shipment. The freight company had mistakenly sent it to the opposite side of the country. Ugh.
However, we have now received the records and did notice some imperfections in the printing of the jackets/sleeves. We've since hand-inspected every single copy of the record. Upon that, we determined that the printing of the jackets/sleeves wasn't fully up to our standards and the pressing plant has agreed to re-print them.
With that being said, the colors of the vinyl turned out STUNNING. We've also put up the remaining copies of the Indiegogo Exclusive Smoky Edition. It's limited to only 50 hand-numbered copies & is on the left in the above photo. Less than 25 are available now. Order yours at: audra.bandcamp.com/merch
Back to the printing issue...
At this point, we have 2 options available for your order:
USA Customers:
1. We send out your copy now. You may not even notice any issues. But if you feel unsatisfied with the printing, we'll send you a new jacket/sleeve when we receive them. Just let us know - or send a message saying all is cool with your copy.
2. You can hold off on receiving it and we'll send out the whole thing when we get the new jackets/sleeves. Estimated shipping date is October 31, 2019.
Outside of the US:
1. We send out your copy now AS-IS. You may not even notice any issues. Just let us know and we'll get it packed up and on its way.
2. You can hold off on receiving it and we'll send out the whole thing when we get the new jackets/sleeves. Estimated shipping date is October 31, 2019.
Please know that we are very sorry for the delays. I can't wait for you to hear it and have it in your hands & on your turntables!
Thank you so very much for your support AND patience! Bret Helm of Audra
