Before anyone smacks me around, I did run a search and combed through subject headings going back till August, and couldn't find anything that addresses the following:
When is World Container going to be released down here in the States? We expats need our new Hip too, but I haven't seen any sign of any non-import versions south of the border. Is it going to be in the next couple weeks? Or do I need to get people back home to buy WC (and Sloan's new album, which won't be out here till freaking January) and ship it down to me?
Sometime in 2007. You're better off just ordering it online like I did.
Amazon and Best Buy show it to be available Oct 24. Maybe these are import shipments only?
Here in PA, I ordered thru amazon.ca last week, paid the extra for fast shipping. Lo and behold a knock on the door at 11:30 am, there it is! Too Sweet. Early faves Ocean, Dreamed, Kids, Fly.
I drove to Ft. Erie on my lunch break (1/2 drive) and picked it up.
circuit city has it available on halloween and it is an import for $30

Same here! I was so glad to get it on release day like everyone else! :mrgreen:
Two :thumb: :thumb: for Amazon.ca. I preordered and it arrived at my doorstep yesterday (the 17th). What more could you ask for?
Two :rambo: :rambo: for Amazon.ca. I cancelled my order after getting an email yesterday about it being backordered with an estimated ship date of
LATE NOVEMBER. Huh?

I guess I could get my lazy ass to drive over the bridge.
I preordered my copy Monday from mymusic.com and i got an estimated arrival date of Friday for 16 bucks US. Not too bad, if it arrives when they say it will. I don't think I'll be using Maplemusic till I live on the East coast coz it took forever for an order to get up to Alaska and it was marginally better delivery times when I lived in Wisconsin.

Saw World Container in FYE at the King of Prussia Plaza this afternoon - it was marked as an import at a whopping $27.95. So, for those who care, it is available in the states.
I bought it here in the Detroit area at Dearborn Music for 17.99 as import in Nov. I heard a DJ giving it some promo on the radio after playing In View last week... he said it would be available in the US in March.
