I wonder if it's because they did the email a few days after the release that allowed downloading. I'd be curious about what other people experience. I didn't use the one in the email and decided to wait till I got the download card with the package.

Got mine. Not Dig card, no poster. Therap t-shirt (at least the Xl runs big) Future iron on. The vinyl looks nice, but am I the only one who thinks this package was a tad bit over priced, and overpriced shipping? Im going to be pissed if the vinly I ordered from Amazon is white.
Vinly- $15
CD- $10
T-shirt- maybe $15
Iron on- 50 cents
no dig card- neg - $10
no poster- neg - $2
So really I paid around $60 for the 7" vinyl?
I think Topspin should really take a look at who bought this on the first day (like me) or even the people who purchased the fatty set and send them something a little extra. Its been a big pain in the ass since day one, with downloads not working, not getting one thing on time and then not sending what is clearly marked on the website and also on the package sent.
Since there is no tour, there is plenty of time for Mike to give us all a call and thank us for the purchase? Dont you think?

The poster is in the CD....you should have been mailed a link to the downloads, i'm pretty sure everyone else was. The package seemed to be priced properly. I don't know where you're able to get vinyl for 15 bucks....but it certainly won't be the first run pressing, and a 10 dollar CD is only so because the seller has chosen to take a loss to get you in the store.
Here's where I stand on this...no one is making money on music these days...TopSpin has the right idea....bundled sales directly from the artists. If I have to play a little premium to do business directly with the boys, and I know they get a fatter cut...i'm great with that. Whatever I need to do to keep them making music.
I'm not afraid to complain when I don't get what I paid for, but clearly I got what I paid for...I mean if you didn't agree with the valuation of the package, why did you buy it?

Sounds like you work for topspin? My local record store preorder price (mom and pop) was $17 for the vinyl (which I did). My preorder price on vinly at Amazon was $13.50. And I guess everyone wanted you in there store, as Ive not seen the cd for more or less then $10.00. I bought it since I have everything else they have came out with ( I mean everything) I just think everything was mishandled on their part (Topspin, NOT the Beasties).

I don't work for TopSpin, in fact I've railed on them as well...but seriously...have you been buying music for the last decade? Those prices you are quoting are definitely bargain basement and reflect retailers who sell music at higher volumes so they can afford less margin. Don't forget Amazon just held a .99 cent sale for the new Lady Gaga album...when you talk direct from the artist and compare it to Amazon or even Mom and Pop, its not apples to apples
Also...Here's a link for a 17 dollar CD from a reputable online dealer
http://www.sandboxautomatic.com/
I'm just saying...there was no gun to your head...there was a full list of what was to be sold displayed on the webpage...you have your stuff....why complain now? The DL thing was a pain in the ass...but they stepped up and reversed course and provided all of us with the album the next day...

I am not trying to defend topspin here, but I don’t understand why you bought the package if you weren’t happy with the price.
You could have done the same calculations before you bought it from the website. Topspin delivered everything it advertised.
I used to see this all the time when I worked in sales and customer service. People would complain about the price of something and then go ahead and buy it anyways.
The only thing I found misleading and annoying from topspin was how long it took for the package to arrive. Especially since some of us ordered the package one month before the album came out. I knew the vinyl was going to be delayed, but I though at least the CD and everything else would have came on time.

I think I would have been less bummed out if everything came when it was first posted day one. I didnt have a issue with the price if everyone who paid the price got it before others did. It would have felt a little more special. It wound up being a ho-hum package opening. After seeing the 7" on ebay, that made opening up the box less special since I knew what it was going to be. Also, as corny as it sounds, I was hoping for the pictured "download card" to add to the rest of my OCD Beastie collection.

Awesome set-up/pix!! Are those actual albums in the frames? If so are they doubles? or maybe you keep the vinyl separate? Hey so I have another quick question: what's inside the gatefold of HSCP2?
Also if you can describe the inside gatefold of TT5B, too. I never saw that one either. Shit sorry for all the questions...But
Thanks!

Those are actual album covers in the frames and yes I keep the vinyl separate so I can spin it.
The gatefold of HSCP2 is two pages of the "head's of the HSC" drawings one starts with 'pirate' and the second with the 'fainter'.
TT5B gate fold is just a continuation to the Manhattan cityscape panoramic drawing. I can't remember if the white sky was filled with the song lyrics or if it just empty!?! Sorry, I am to lazy to take it out of the frame.
Glad you enjoyed my 'Beasties Shine'!;)

I put my 'knight' on a Tee, but I have a professional T-Shirt Heat Press so, it was a no-brainer.
I'll buy a 'from the future' and 'clepto' from anyone, if the price is right. Just PM me...
I not a huge fan of these B-Boys shirt designs... but I do have a nice collection of Beastie Boys shirts, so why not keep the collection up to date.

Wow, mine didn't come today either. I ordered 3 x copies ($270 USD). First copies delivered to other buyers showed up on 5/26, post doesn't run tomorrow, and I am skeptical that mine will come when it does run again on Monday 6/6 (12 days later). I have had nothing but good experiences with topspin and SAMmerch. I am certain their is a good reason that I'm waiting an additional 12 days... They must be procuring an autographed test pressing on my behalf. ;)
P.S.
I tried this in another thread but no one seemed interested. If you want your deluxe package early and ordered after 4/19 let me know and I will send you one of the ones I ordered in exchange for the one you ordered. Maybe the only way you get one before August... Just sayin'

Because before details were available I was hoping that the 7" would be available in different versions (mainly). Also because as far as collecting goes, having extra copies to trade is better than cash.

The vinyl sounds great. Way better quality than the quick fix download that topspin sent. I can actually hear ad-rock say "Scott Storch come on, get up" in the beginning of NDP.
It's great to finally listen to this with the headphones plugged into a good sound system along with the big lyrics sheet in front of me.

I think I'm gonna scan the iron-on as I have old sheets to make T-shirts (from the BBMB-posse times) so I don't use the original one.
No download cards, but I've got the downloads on mail earlier. Would've been nice with a card tho...

got mine today. Pretty sweet.
Everyone thinks 'The Therapist' t-shirt is a t-shirt I made of myself. :/

Hamish from New Zealand (speaking in 3rd person) just recieved his. Perhaps he'll never open the plastic on the vinyl for he has the bonus tracks via email digital download and plus, keeping it pristine forever is kind of a cool thought.
But curiousity will no doubt get the better of him, and he'll be spinning that analogue shit in no time.

Exactly the same thing happened to me at a corporate teambuilding when I wore the shirt.

anyone care to exchange "the knight" iron-on for either the "from the future" or "the clepto"?

got mine this week. unceremoniousy put the shirt over my sweaty neck and wore it to the gas station where i got a weird look from the cashier.. it DOES look like something the wearer made themselves.
i tihnk i got the knight iron on, but i stashed it with the record for posterity
my vinyl is smear-free, couple of tiny specs of blue. opened it once to look at the packaging and put it away with my other records.
i read through the lyrics sheet and noticed how a lot of the words are not the same as what's being said on the album. i gave my other copy of the cd to my younger sib with a wishy note written on the cover. my copy remains pristine and my digital tracks get the most play.
must say, the album sounds the VERY best in the car. the bass and richness of the sound is something that cannot be appreciated on a computer. if you havent, burn it and take it to a proper stereo - or at least your car.
kudos to the bboys for giving this release the proper depth/sound complexity that was sorely missing from TT5B. i really am enjoying tadlocks, say it, make some noise and disco the most. really good shit (y)

i noticed a couple of heads saying the same thing, but what are we talkin' about here, a few single words, maybe a phrase or two?
take out the pauls boutique liner notes and compare word for word with the album, there are a few differences there as well.
i would say the lyrics are 93.8 % accurate

i thought that about liner notes from the other albums too. yeah, there've always been discrepancies.. i'd say 93.8% is a precise assessment
i thought disco powerpack sounds like "all day is'ok in the neighborhood" and it says "all day its how we play"
in lee majors it sounds like "you wanna battle, leave your mask off/easy now star" at the same time and it only says "easy now star" i could be wrong about that one
in tadlocks it sounds like he says "YES i cuss" and it says "plus i cuss"
i think there are more, i cant compare right now. in all these cases i like the lyrics i hear
i think maybe they don't give the lyrics sheets and just make someone listen and transcribe. its probably better that way, leaves things a little hazy

it's interesting, the NDP and Tadlock lyrics you listed are exactly as I have been hearing them since the album dropped.
but was that because my first initial listens included the lyric sheet from the CD?
keep in mind, I tried my best to avoid the dropped singles over the last couple of years.
in fact, I was worried I wouldn't like the album based on BBITC and TMR originally. I held out until the MSN MSG event.
I liked Lee Majors and Pop Your Balloon, but you could say I was underwhelmed. the chopped HALSFY from the video game wasn't enough for me to judge, but as some have mentioned the album cut is growing into one of my favorites on the whole album.
I can't get the organ hook from MSN out of my head, I play it all day long as my soundtrack.

Maybe.. I may be wrong about the lyrics, but i could swear they sound different! Wonder if I would hear them differently if I'd done a first listen with a lyrics sheet?
Upon further inspection, it was my 45record of the 2 extra songs that is all speckly. Blue specks all over it.
I'm really intrigued about the seemingly hand written numbers on the LP vinyls... on the inner part of the vinyl where there is no music printed. Not even what they are but why they look hand etched in the plastic :confused:

I went and bought the vinyl at a record store for 20 bucks. It came with the 7" Pop Your Balloon/B-boys in the Cut, an iron on of "From The Future" and a digital download card. WOOOOH! I want to buy a second one.
I'm glad the vinyl came out later than CD release since it gives something else to look forward to post release.

it's not that it's not funny, it's just fucking boring, like some jerk's comment on soundcloud long burn the fire "this is rape" what's the bullshit? it's easy to write some shit but what does the jerk really means? what's the point in bringing on the same old rape and hate vision which is all over the place already and fucking dead! I am all about THE FUTURE with the LOVE AND INSPIRATION VISION. suckerz!!!(i had to say it, i've been listening to the record a lot)
