I needed this news today! Thanks Trent! Now time for endless speculation....
OMFG Quake vinyl finally yaaaaaas
There doesn't appear to be a way to enter your address when creating a new account. I checked the FAQ and found something about changing your address. You have to submit a helpdesk ticket to change your address, I'm guessing you have to do the same thing to have your address added? Seems really odd that you can't update your own account details and have to submit a helpdesk ticket to get someone else to do it. Hopefully they enter our info right.
So with this Quake vinyl, we finally get to know what the actual song titles are
What if the blacked out title is just the title of the upcoming EP?
It looks like Sandbag got their start with the digital release of Radiohead's "In Rainbows" way wack when. I remember that being a painless experience at a time when something like that was brand new, so that bodes well.
EDIT: I guess they actually started as the W.A.S.T.E. store, which pre-dated "In Rainbows." At any rate, I used them for pre-sale Radiohead tickets back then, and never had any problems in the realm of the Firebrand fiasco.

Has to be.
I'm sure Trent has used Sandbag before: Dragon Tattoo soundtrack release
I think it's pretty amazing that Trent is taking most of the accountability for this, when all he and his team did was try to make these vinyl packages the very best they can be. You can't fault someone who obviously cares about his fanbase and the quality of the products he is selling to them. I don't mind waiting another month and haven't minded the wait so far, despite whatever wisecracks I've made.
As far as Firebrand goes, I'm curious as to what pissed Trent off about them so much, if they had little to do with the design and manufacturing of the pre-orders. I know they screwed up the download thing at the beginning, and weren't the most expedient as far as getting back to inquiries, but they seem pretty blameless from the actual vinyl standpoint if they never even had these things to ship in the first place.
Seems like it's a case of obsessive quality control meeting a marketplace log-jammed by a trending commodity. It is what it is..

Has anybody recieved the email yet, that has the NIN store discount? I'm waiting on mine with my credit card ready.
So what's our guess on whether Deviations will ship at the end of June if it's part of an order with other items in it?
Are the new vinyl releases such as Quake and Patriot Day going to include digital downloads too? There's no mention of digital files on anything but the first wave of vinyls
Just got a 20% code from NIN
I just got my discount code emailed to me. So others should be getting them too.
Nice that it is good for a year. Hopefully that means I can stock up on a whole bunch of new stuff all at once. Love to see new merch is coming. Can never have too much merch.PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS DISCOUNT CODE IS NOT APPLICABLE FOR PURCHASE OF NOT THE ACTUAL EVENTS, THE FRAGILE: DEVIATIONS 1, AND THE DEFINITIVE EDITIONS OF THE FRAGILE, THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL AND BROKEN.

YOUR CODE IS VALID FOR UP TO 1 YEAR.
THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND UNDERSTANDING.
Got my code, too. I suppose I'll just wait and see what comes to the store, even if that means some things sell out in the meantime. :-/
As always I'm reading too much into it and getting incredibly excited when reading "and more".NEW MUSIC, REISSUES, MERCHANDISE AND MORE WILL BE APPEARING IN THE COMING MONTHS SO KEEP THIS CODE SAFE.
Edit: Sorry, I mean "AND MORE".
it says on the FAQ help page
