Tash Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Well I hope it's this scenario as well that would really increase chances of being able to buy one at the stores in stead of on eBay. Thanks for the information btw! (I'm going to tweet it and mention you if that's ok with you?) I hope so too! You're welcome :) And that's OK :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Don't want to rain on anyone's parade but I'm pretty sure it's limited to 1000 worldwide, 500 is the amount that will be available in the UK alone Happy to be wrong though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it would've been 750-250, it would've made more sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 But this was never said to be an exclusive US release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doritji Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 So then it could still be 1000 in the US, + 500 in the UK right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I doubt it, I'm not gonna say it won't happen 100% because we never had a proper word from either EMI or the band about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tash Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 500 copies, Parlophone 1000 copies, Capitol Looks like 1500 copies, right? :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doritji Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yes indeed, I wonder when they're going to announce it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doritji Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yes I was thinking the same thing, Capitol and Parlophone versions. That's even worse, now we have to collect 2 versions :p This would implicate that there are 500 copies for Europe/UK though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I wish coldplay.com would say something and clear our doubts, in the list I got it was EMI/Capitol, but they were importing it from the UK actually to be honest it wouldn't make any difference to me, it's a battle either way to get just one copy :worried: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The news got out more than a week ago, you'd expect them to tell us what's going on. We don't need much, just the artowrk and availability. C'mon Coldplay.com, you can do it! And yes, I've been contacting loads of stores and people and well, I'm starting to think eBay will be the only way.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheese Nip 2 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Has anybody gotten a request verification yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doritji Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 What do you mean by that? If we got a confirmation that we'll be certain of a copy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheese Nip 2 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 ^ That's what I thought, but I may be wrong..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doritji Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I think no one can say for sure that they'll be able to get a copy. Most record stores won't put items aside and even if they do, they might not be able to get a copy. For now it's wait and see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R23 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 So, summarized, there will only be 500 copies available for Europe? I was thinking of trying to get one here in Amsterdam, but it's not even sure the record stores here will have one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, I'm sorry then for saying you did ;) Too bad that the quantity isn't mentioned there. It could still be part of the 500 UK ones... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tash Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Too bad that the quantity isn't mentioned there. It could still be part of the 500 UK ones... Maybe they know more about it at my local record store, I will ask them tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsmith7 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Saw somewhere that they'll be packaged in white sleeves. Think it's a shame there won't be any artwork, that's almost the whole point of it for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tash Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I went to my record store to ask about the release (second time this week, they probably think I'm fricking annoying) and they are going to order it. They don't know for sure if they will receive a copy, I really hope so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tash Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 From the German release list: link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doritji Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I think those lists just copy paste the world wide releases. I saw it on a list of my local record store as well, but the list was as long as the first one we encountered and I don't think tehy'll be selling them all.
