I got mine from Amazon marketplace, hope this helps

Thanks a lot! I didnt even know it was availible on vinyl. I only find German onlinestores/ebaystores who got it, maybe its a German only release? The usually reliable passionsjustlikemine.com isnt informed either. Maybe I should drop them an e-mail.
 
Sandy shore, i'm in belgium & it was released in Netherlands. Ordered mine on import.
Same goes for IBEH & FOTGTD 12" released soon.
 
Ok , thanks. Can you recommend any good Dutch onlinestores who will ship to Scandinavia?
 
Got IBEH on 12" today.
Etching is "done at townhouse", no "other message".
Normally i had FOTGTD too today but it wasn't there.
