RECORD STORE DAY EXCLUSIVES (LINK: http://fifthelementonline.com/collections/record-store-day-exclusives): We’ve ordered a mighty fine variety of the available exclusive items this year. However, per RSD standards, retail stores never know exactly what they will get until they show up in the mail due to available allotments. Soon as our allotments start to show up we will be posting on social media which items we have, so make sure you are connected the retail store that day! Any remaining stock on those items will go live on our online store at 8 AM CST the following morning (4-17-16).Note: In the link the items say SOLD OUT, but that is just because they are not live yet.
