šŸ“£ News Carpenters Royal Philharmonic Purchasing, Ordering, Shipping Thread

Just had a memory on my FB feed where I had mentioned the upcoming recording with the Royal Philharmonic. 1 year ago.
 
The last email I received from the "Official Carpenters Store" on July 18th contained the following statement;

"Your Carpenters with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra music product is now expected to ship in 3-4 weeks. Upon shipment, an email will be provided containing tracking information."

Their 4 weeks will be up this Thurs Aug 15th.

That means I should be receiving an email with the "tracking information" sometime this weekend! Oh Joy!!:goodie:

Probably changed it from "Prime Formerly Two-Day But Now Five or Six Day" service to something a little quicker to make up for the repeated delays?
 
I havenā€™t received that email yet.

Canā€™t wait to get the black and white vinyls AND the t-shirt that I almost forgot I had ordered.

I can't believe it. I just got a text from Carpenters Official Store that my order (white LP) has actually shipped! The UPS label has been created.
 
Perhaps as @Rick-An Ordinary Fool states, it is "August Fools Day." And so, the role of August Fool will be played today by a returning Jamesj75! (not the first time playing such a role)

My e-mail from Carpenters states that "Your order is on the way," with a "View your order" link, also accessing shipping information. So... we're making progress! :)
 
Geez what are we gonna have to talk about now that itā€™s shipped lol

Well considering what happened with the LAST vinyl release, there could be some interesting posts indeed over the next few days.

This thread will run for a while, as everyone dissects the vinyl versions in comparison to the myriad tinkered CD and online versions released so far. Iā€™ve long since lost all interest in following the pointless audio facelifts but I just hope for everyoneā€™s sake that the vinyl doesnā€™t come complete with jagged, razor sharp edges and misshapen centre holes that the box set vinyl did.
 
I don't own a turntable so mine will be carefully opened due to curiosity, but won't be played. Have never been one to dissect the various releases/tracks for comparison purposes, I trust that to the audio experts on this site. I do plan on having the autographed litho professionally framed and I will find a suitable place in the house to hang it.
