I have here a Morgan Geist 12" on Clear : A : Linking Tunnel AA : Food & Fuel and it says : "This is a limited edition single only 1500" taken from the forthcoming album "The Driving Memoirs". So okay, the album's out now - but does that limited edition mean it's in any way rare or collectable? In what numbers are singles usually pressed up? Is 1500 a lot or not really? (We're not talking MASK here :-) ) Just wondering /// I *

I couldn't tell you, but I really love this 12"... keep forgetting that the cd has been out for a while and that i should buy it... on a clear note... a while back (months back) i ordered stuff from clear (possibly four + five months) was wondering if anyone can tell me if this is typical response time or am i sol... on a pressing #'s note... a couple people asked me if i knew what the pressing was on the vvm catalog and i haven't forgotten, just can't find your emails... remind me who you are... brap@sonic.net /// occasional noisy soundfiles (np: burundi challenge.rm) http://www.sonic.net/~brap/ blackdog, vvm, whitezone-l, slipdisc C.Gosselin, PO Box 8264, Santa Rosa, CA 95407

I we are to AVOID a witchhunt or whatever, why do it in private? Anyway: I ordered stuff from Clear about 3.5 months ago orso... I sent em money on their request and I was informed that it had arrived as well. Then for more than two months: nothing. So, I rung em up (+44 (0)171 386 7865) after several unanswered emails and I was told that they had been to Japan for some weeks and stuff. Well, I recieved my things together with tons of apologies and a free t-shirt. And although they really should work on their mailorder a bit I still don't think they're out to fuck anybody over. When I ordered some Aphex things a couple of years ago it took em more than a year to get it to me (got a free shirt back then as well - albeit longsleeve, but then again it was four times the period of time) - it seems like only Warp have their shit sorted out in the postalorder bizniz. Give Clear a call. Fe. inf: 908285 | F. ENMARK | SWEDEN = ) - =-= = pop: http://gargamel.com/plod -/ - - - ] www: http://gargamel.com/frankie = -.. =-= = .

I ordered 7 items from Clear recently. It took 9 weeks to get to me and everything was fine when I received it. I didnt call them, but I did send a reminder email every other week. They are very good business people, theyre just not a Mail Order company and I think you should expect a delay when ordering direct from a source like that. Jeffrey Franz Enmark wrote:
