Okay, this is probably futile, but why not? Post your city and what stores you've checked.
USA-Chicago-Reckless Records (Wicker Park) [moebius]
USA-New York-Other Music [some_lucky_bastard]

Since it's apparently confirmed there's only one in any given country, there's probably no point of people in the US checking more stores, is there?

Not really, but Reckless is just down the block from here
And they have also have a shop in London, but the guys here didn't know anything about it.

Are you from Victoria? I live just up the street from Ditch, but I haven't checked yet -- I work on Saturdays so I missed Record Store Day entirely. :/

I checked Shake It Records in Cincinnati and the clerk dude said he didn't recall seeing it. So yeah it's probably ultra rare and only in major cities, likely the Geogaddi listening party ones since those are some of the biggest anyways.

i would say forget it, the guy was told 'one only in USA'
these are elsewhere, 5, possibly, london, paris, berlin, tokyo and the 5th, could be edinburgh, canada etc
no harm in trying but i don't think theres anymore in USA
if this is the case, then its one big brave thing they're attempting, hope it works out for them.
i personally can't see it coming together too well, could take weeks, months...

Naw, now that we know about the records, there are probably thousands of people looking for them.

Eh, I was going to get my panties in a wad even if Pitchfork hadn't posted about it.

Other Music : NYC record shop specializing in underground music: indie, electronic, avant-garde, psychedelia, international, vintage rock, folk and more.
Look at those genres. Is there a record store in your neighborhood like that? I wish there was here.
I'll be checking a record store where I've seen some hell interface laying around, and some smaller stores. I'll have to wait till Thursday for most other stores to open.
also: don't expect the record to look EXACTLY the same, even though it probably does, you might overlook it being pink and all...

yaw, thousands in America looking for them are wasting their time.
this is not how its working, it may seem that there would be more but nope.
only one in USA, happy hunting but you'd have better hope of saving your gas money
and catching a flight to another country.
i can't say how i know, it's just a feeling that develops over the years on how this boc machine works

I can confirm as fact the record is not at Zia Record Exchange in Tucson, Arizona. I don't know why it wouldn't be there. Tucson's a major city that ranks with New York, London, Tokyo...right? Ok probably not

once again, it'd only be at places participating in record store day, the list is still up, check the ones on that list in the party cities
