The picture disc restocked in the UK store! x

Yea the picture did it for me too  It looks gorgeous and I'm glad I was able to catch the restock just in time 
 

omg i really hope the one from uk comes with a box, now i'm nervous hahahah

.

since its a 2LP I wonder if the picture discs will b the same photo or different  if they're different photos imma be pissed I didn't get one 

I am not too sure that the responsible ones of her management actually know this, lol. Her way (and other universal artists') to release stuff in the last years make me doubt it... I tend to believe they think that Europe is a country and "UK" was the name of its capital. 

Ughh I’m scared to add up my purchases this era but here it goes 
.
.
.
$741.94 
Whoops  I’m a little ashamed but I also know I’m gonna probably sell some of the vinyl variants eventually and I really do love all the merch I bought 

I fully agree, maybe we get the box set and a yellow vinyl in the 2 weeks around release date to push sales and charts. 
Was the same for me with Chemtrails. I hated spending all the money on mostly the same cover all the time (since my collection is kind of complete and it's one of my favorite albums, I felt the need to get them all, lol) . Glad this time they have way more different photos on the covers. But who knows what else will come, maybe we will top Chemtrails... 🙈

Was the same for me. Was undecided all the time, and then, after sold out, one came back and I just had to buy it, lol. Her insta pic of her holding the box kind of convinced me, too. I only hope the UK one comes with a box, too. It's only pictured on the US page.

I'm pretty sure the COCC era was the most I've ever spent on preorders. There were so many different color variations, almost all with that same cover At least this era we are getting different artwork along with the different vinyl variations. I would prefer it to be this way imo.

Since I wanted a pic disc and we got that yesterday (yay), I would be the most content with this era if UO had a pastel kinda yellow vinyl to match the font of the standard artwork (I feel like that was a missed opportunity tbh) and a tata vinyl boxset with different artwork. Maybe Lana's tatas wouldn't be plastered across the cover, but the picture she shared clearly showed the pic being used as a vinyl sleeve, maybe inside the boxset or something. That's my 2 cents at least. Of course we all probably want something different and everyone won't always be happy. Overall, I think Lana and her team have done a great job with the different variations this era

this rollout is by far the most i've spent on her and i dont regret it only bc the variants have different covers.  this is also my first picture disc so im gonna cut my self some slack by dropping 40$ i shouldnt have on it

LOL yes, we are the UK(E) (=United Kingdoms of Europe) and our president is a Monarch called King Charles 
 
But seriously, I sometimes think the US Universal Music heads really have no idea how things are working in Europe since Brexit... 
 
I "love" how I had to buy my merch in UK, the red vinyl in France, the green one in Denmark, the white one in my home country and the spotify vinyl in the US.

Wait because I believe this too…. OMFG?

The problem is that they are not losing it really, as we just buy somewhere else and pay twice... I just sent them a message about it. Let's see what they reply. Not that I have any hopes.
 
Hello, 
I have a question about the way parcels sent from the UK to EU destinations are declared. When I bought merch from the Lana Del Rey UK store few days ago, it said the VAT of my country was included, but another fan told me the same happened to him in the Taylor Swift store (also Universal Music UK) and in the end, he had to pay the VAT plus usual fees again, so he paid the VAT (plus extra fees) twice. The interesting merch (lighter, jacket, necklace) was only available from UK, so there were no other options for EU buyers.
Will there be a declaration on the parcel, that the VAT has already been paid before? (Please do so.) Because if not, we will have to pay it twice.
Besides I would like to know if it wouldn't be possible not to exclude EU customers from music purchases, especially when they include exclusives not available in EU stores. The exclusive spotify disc for example was for "UK only", so EU customers actually had to buy from Canada, US and Australia, because so far there was no link for EU customers. It would be really nice if this problem could be solved one day.
Best regards

There’s more countries than this??!?!

I will! :-) But I don't have much hope.
