hm, only those who preordered you think?
Call me perfectionist, but I was thinking to order vinyls again since this I got is badly folded on one corner. And the envelope was opened when I got it.
And it would be great to get another keyring |

Yes I think so, cause this is what official site shop tells:
"Released 20th June. Pre-Order the CD or Vinyl to be entered into the prize draw to win A perspex Space Cowboy! 500 lucky people will get a fantastic Jamiroquai logo keyring with their album!"
So, I think the key ring will not be included in later orders  And of course you seem to be one of the 500 lucky winners. Congrats to you 
Sorry to hear, that the things were not carefully shipped. May be you can get replacement and keep the keyring?

I don't think this is it. Perspex is a plastic, my keyring is made of metal (buffaloman is only 2.5 cm in size). And if I remember, this competition was only for UK residents.
Well, winner or not, I'm glad I got it |

I think there was only one perspex 'Space Cowboy', and 500 keyrings as a sort of runner-up prize
I doubt they would check to see who lived in the UK and who didn't, it's probably an automated service anyway.
Oh, and did everyone else get...
...this?

I got no keyring and no flyer and indeed I sent my copy of dynamite back to recordstore.co.uk today as it arrived in an envelope predictably battered to f*&k by the post. If they are going to carry the can of being the official outlet and have the word 'record' in their name, they ought to realise that 12" vinyl needs a little more than a card envelope to survive the post office in saleable condition. Not to mention the hilarious touch of the tiny little 'handle with care, do not bend' notice they put on the address label, which I'm sure all the post office operatives who handled my package took the time to read.
In short, first and last purchase from recordstore.co.uk - sticking cd's in padded envelopes is one thing, selling vinyl is another. For the former, I'll stick to play.com, for the latter I went to HMV Oxford Street.
If any of you happen to be going there, I can categorically state that HMV Oxford Circus has no vinyl copies that do not have at least one damaged disc. I wasted a lot of time today finding the only clean set there was. Quality control must be at an all time low as the album was not in any way sealed in HMV or from recordstore. Hence my ability to check for a copy without any scuffs, scratches or other yuck on the records.
All in all, my experience of buying dynamite has been a trying one, so apologies for the whinge. Last year I went to selectadisc the day the album came out and went home with the one they gave me and had no trouble at all. This time, Selectadisc aren't even stocking it?? I'm sure there's a story there, as any of you who know the shop or have at least seen it on the cover of 'What's the story Morning Glory', will know that they essentially stock everything there is on vinyl - new and old.
Hey ho, all is well now  |

on friday, june 24 i've received all 5 items i pre-ordered:
Dynamite vynil LP
Dynamite cd
FJLIS vynil 12"
FJLIS cd single
FJLIS maxi single
and you know what?
Feels So Good knee deep remix
is the track i love so much,
A COOL MELODY, BEAUTIFUL CHORDS,
BEAUTIFUL IDEAS, when i play this song i begin to smile
because it makes me feel so fantastic....its great
they have released it on FJLIS single,
because now everybody can buy it, and its such a perfect song!!!
about Dynamite vynil LP ...
my vynil dynamite
upper corner is folded very much.
i am really sad, actually i was prepared for that cause when i ordered vynil on simply vynil they were also folded and one LP arrived even with torn upper edge not to mention
folded corners..
i am really upset because of it..
they should use harder protection, like made of plastic or smth...
my Feels Just Like It Should 12" is also folded but
less than Dynamite LP. |

I am sorry to hear that the stores are so bad at handling the vinyl records. I had almost given up hope when I picked up my copy today (ordered from EIL), but luckily it was in excellent condition No keyrings or flyers, though.
I like how the buffalo man is used on the silver-colored label, is it also on the CD label
