The what's going on in Thrash thread

Thanks. I've never dealt with etsy but I have seen their links pop up in searches.
I don't mind the devil one on the indie merch site, pity there isn't anything newer though.
You are welcome sir. I wish there had been more. Etsy is pretty good. I've ordered several things over the years and never had a problem.

Thanks. I just wish AFM was more reasonable. Bloody Euros and EU's can go fuck themselves :)
Between Helloween and Flotz I reckon I could happily spend $100 on CD's and shirts in the coming months but instead they have to price themselves out of the deal and I'll end up buying the standard edition CD's from a local store and missing out on the shirts.

Just this week? Why would they do that?! Allergic to success?

And they celebrate odd numbers too, because it's 31 years since Act III, you'd reckon they'd have done this last year.
(oh yeah covid, bands couldn't make money last year!! Silly me)

Their FB page does only say one week though, would also explain why it's print on demand. Doesn't explain why they couldn't change the order but were happy to cancel it though.

Yeah the Flotsam Boxset is $34.99. After shipping it will be $50. I'm sure it's much worse for you guys.

It looks good at 50 euros but the euro is fucking terrible against our dollar. It would nearly be cheaper to convert euros to USD and then convert it to AUD. It would be nearly $80 to get sent here.

Probably a dumb question but you looked here?

https://www.flotstildeath.com/store/

I thought I had checked their but I guess I hadn't.
The postage is a lot better than AFM but still $30 for two shirts whereas Relapse was $15. However the prices might be different to even that out. I'll have to check it out a bit more....thanks.
The one downer is they don't have the Flotzilla in big fat bastard size :)

Holy frickin damn. That's so unfair.

I was just looking at some new Exodus shirts which the band linked to on FB. They are from some site called Rebellion Republic but like so many of these sites in America they have removed standard postage and only offer First Class UPS. It's no wonder shipping is so damn expensive when that's all anyone offers. I know there is still only a fraction of the planes in the air that there used to be but normal shipping has pretty much resumed for so many other industries, for instance car parts and computer parts can be delivered standard post and have been that way for months. Seems to me some of these t-shirt companies are behind the times. The problems from Europe do still have some thing to do with high postage rates but mainly it's a very poor exchange rate and it's always been that way even before they went Euro.

It is! I went on the youtube video of this. And saw Dbag Whight made a comment. Wasn't a bad comment. But I told him to fuck off with his league bullshit. You know how many times I've read him call Exodus d league?

The stupid prick made a comment on the Blabber article that whatever Zet lost Vince Neal gained. It shows just how fucking stupid the guy is because not only was there a recent article with Vince showing how much weight he'd lost Dave was commenting on the article

What's really fucking stupid is that labels don't set up local distribution here. I realise for the bands local distro deals would be difficult, although bands like Alestorm and Dropkick Murphys can manage it, but for an entire label it would make sense.

I saw that. Such a douche bag.
I changed my response. I really wanna burn this guy instead of swearing at him. He's got a lot of nerve posting on Zet's channel. Knowing he hates thrash and has repeatedly called Exodus d and c league.
