    Just received my replacement today. It's pretty identical to the US one and, you know what? All the back information leads you to the US pressing... Guess they had to ask the US manufacture to produce more copies to replace the european ones!

      Received my replacement today - doesn't look anywhere near as good as the US ones but it is better. As expected, it is full retail packaging minus signature

        Finally got my copy and yeah no gold anywhere and the purple is very minimal. Got the full refund instead of replacement. But at least my poster seems to be signed by Tate and not some secretary so that's positive lol.

          Replacement received and it’s the same botched pressing, still not the one that was d. I have no words, if that’s not proof of awful customer service, then I don’t know what is.

            Different colour to what was d, it was meant to be gold and purple swirl

              Just got the following e-mail:

              "We are reaching out because you purchased the
              So Close To What Limited Edition Alternate Cover LP with Signed Poster.

              Unfortunately, some vinyl units were affected during manufacturing, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

              To resolve this, we are offering you the following options:
              ● A replacement once new stock is available
              ● A full refund"

              I just choose a replacement, thinking that they will follow the US aesthetics and give us a vinyl equal to theirs.

                🤡🤡🤡this pressing 💀💀💀

                  I also emailed the EU store about my vinyls, first because of damaged package and then because of the vinyl. At least I got a real signature, with all the fake ones people are getting... But sadly this press has nothing to do with its mock up... I want a vinyl like the one in the US release. We really were scammed with this release!

                    I still have to receive mine but im already pissed of. They stated on the website "mardi gras" and this version has nothing to do with it? Do you think I should with the customer service asking for a refund?

                      I asked merch team to return and swipe my UK vinyl to US ones. AS it is clearly misleading and against what people bought. it's not subtle difference it has NOTHING to do with the real one!!!
                      Both US and UK store are the same vinyl but indeed they F* ** * up the UK one, why not import the US one as usual? (made from memphis records MD58 Mardi Gras)
