Just got this:

Thank you for your purchase of the WATERFALL II Deluxe LP or Bundle. Due to an error in our shipping department, a small number of vinyl orders were accidentally shipped out of order to fans. Unfortunately, your order was one that was affected and it will now ship after September 7th. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for understanding. We will be upgrading your shipping method for your package to arrive as quickly as possible, and you will receive tracking info once it ships (be sure to check spam filters as shipping notifications can sometimes get stuck). You will also be receiving a separate email with a discount code for 20% off of a future purchase. Thank you again for your patience and for supporting My Morning Jacket. If you have any questions, please email us at info@colortestmerch.com.

Got the same email. Bit disappointing for sure. I just hope my order still comes with the signed photo...hoping they didnt give them all out by mistake to the wrong orders.

I thought about that too. Maybe the delay is to get more signed.

Too bad Carl did not sign the picture. I'm guessing it was hard to coordinate because of COVID.

He did, kind of hidden but right above his head.

He did, it is above his head but its grey marker on grey background so it blends in

Carl signed mine, but I didn't see it at first.  His is at the top of mine, all others are low on the picture.  I also got a strange/unexpected blue color.
5/24/2003, and every damn time possible since!

Anyone in the UK received theirs yet? Can't find anything in my confirmation email about when they were planning on shipping them (bought from Drift Records) not sure how long I should leave it before I email them to ask between the whole pandemic / bank holiday weekend if it doesn't ship by the end of today I guess I'll ask them
it wouldn't be a party without you

I ordered the spotify bundle and when I received it last week it says that it is the orange/green on the outside, but it actually looks orange and blue. I emailed them about the mix up asking about not receiving the correct gold spotify copy and have not heard back from them at all. Disappointing...
Doesn't matter what you're doin', as long as you're losin' your head

I've learned by now that if you expect a record to look like the mock-up (especially if it looks extra cool) you're gonna have a bad time

Muchas gracias!!!  I've received both the deluxe and the Spotify WIIs.

Examined both carefully and didn't see Carl either time.

Upon further examination, he did sign above his head on one, and on the other, signed right above Bo!! 

Lol, sneaky sneaky Carl. :)

Sage advice indeed.

I'm fine with mine being red and blue because it still matches nicely with the cover art.

Honestly, this whole colortest situation is stupid. Sounds like people have been having an issue with them for awhile, let alone from this preorder. Question is, why hasn't the band done anything about it? I'm sure they have to be aware of some of these issues, why not find a new site to go through that doesn't screw their biggest fans?

MMJCOBRA

Ehhh... One thing this whole COVID mess has taught me is to not sweat the small stuff.

1eyed_jack

I get that for sure, but for a company to take my money, tell me I'll get something on release day, and not even have the decency to send out a mass email saying there were shipping delays, sorry for any inconvenience, is kind of messed up.

Stuff happens, I get it, but keeping a customer informed on what they gave you money for should be assumed, not a luxury

Cameron

They did send the 20% off coupon code for the screw up. It's some consolation I guess.

I'm a teacher and today was the first time back in my school in six months. I've been going through hell from a nasty breakup.

My vinyl showed up today. I've listened to Run It more times than I can count. I'm going to have the most peaceful sleep I've had in weeks.

MMJ always delivers when I need them to, and I'm so so so thankful for them.

Still no tracking number.  :cry:
