I ordered the Everybody's on the Run and Dream on vinyl record singles, and I see they came out, but I am in the U.S. My email from topspin says they're shipping on Sept 3rd. Anyone else in the U.S. order them from his website? it sucks we have to wait over a month. What's the reason?

Well, DO is shipping on that date for everyone as they're new pressings. Everybody's on the Run probably wasn't given an official release over there so they're probably only manufacturing them to meet the demand.
Not trying to be a dickhead but you should be thankful they're being released this way or it may not have been possible to get them without importing.

I don't know why they said September. But I'm in the US and just received my order today. Kind of annoyed though. All that money that they charge for shipping and topspin can't make sure that both the vinyl and cover are protected. I opened the flimsy cardboard package to find that, while the one side was protected by a heavier piece of cardboard, the other side was not. The middle third of the bottom of the sleeve was opened up enough that the vinyl pokes out of the sleeve. And with the way it looks, who knows if they'd have a copy to replace the one I got if I wanted to exchange it.

Did you attempt to have a replacement sent?

If you ordered the singles on their own and not together with the boxset they were being dispatched normally.
If you ordered the singles with the boxset then they were being dispatched in September.

I've not had any issues with singles arriving bad conditions and I ordered through his website. Just for the record.

Did you attempt to have a replacement sent? I sent an email yesterday to topspin@townsend-records.co.uk explaining how my record showed up all bent. Let's see if I get a response. Here is what my record showed up looking like.

Yeah, I don't know about the shipping stuff for us US buyers. I ordered Dream On and EOTR and received Dream On but not EOTR yet. I'm guessing it will come after that Sept. 3rd date. Hopefully!

I realized this week I haven't gotten my EOTR 12" or cd single (I ordered both) here in the States so I checked my order status online and it said "canceled." I emailed them (can't call them) to ask why and haven't gotten any response. And yes, I was charged but the money was not refunded. Currently...a little frustrated.
