DecayToDeath Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 I thought they'd follow through like they did when he Takk... repress got mispriced. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackshidt Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 I just got a refund as well. I really am a little upset. I think that a company like Bull Moose (who accepts pre-orders without charging you first, and lets you cancel if you change your mind or find it cheaper later) can be forgiven for a pricing error and cancellation. Amoeba, however, charges you upfront and does not let you cancel pre-orders if you find it cheaper elsewhere. I think they should honor their pricing, mistake or not (especially when they apparently caught the problem several days ago.) Grrrr ....

Derek™ Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Yeah, I think I'm actually done with Amoeba at this point. It was a substantial savings but it's not like hundreds of people were getting it for $10. Really unfortunate, but the price seemed too good to begin with – so much that I never canceled my Bull Moose order in anticipation of a refund. Pretty bummed that they played right into my skepticism, and surprised they didn't honor it like DOMAN mentioned with that Takk sale.

Derek™ Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Got an e-mail explaining that there was some miscommunication from their distributor on the pricing. Yeah, okay. It's not like we all waited 'til midnight and ordered copies while the price was bugged in the first 30 seconds it was posted. That shit was $75 for a week at least, and like Lethal pointed out, the price had actually dropped before dipping way down to $30. Sorry, Amoeba, I'm not buying it – figuratively and literally.

aekastar Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Yeah, another disappointed person here... I didn't know other misprints were honored before though so I kinda expected it to happen, but had to take a chance. maybe for my bday I'll get this. can't afford the real price right now.

When you put it in your cart, it removes VAT charges and ends up being £41.74 (~$51.64) shipped to the US. (I suppose that's also assuming you're using a credit card that doesn't charge foreign transaction fees) Edited April 8, 2017 by harryq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's nifty to say the least. It's the cheapest option on the market! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still can't afford it right now (could barely afford the misprint price, hahah), but I showed a close friend the link today and hinted for my bday. they acted like they might get me that... even if not, I can buy it by next month if it sticks around that price OneThreeOneTwo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 After spending a few days with this one... I think it may be worth the $70 price tag for the music alone. What a wholesome listen. Kind of disappointed to see that Bull Moose is now showing a May 11th ship date, since they were supposed to go out today. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackshidt Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 It's funny, I buy pretty much all my box sets from Amazon Warehouse (including Narkopop, the Kraftwerk box, the U2 Joshua Tree Box and several others). In my experience, I have had better 'luck' with the box sets than my normal Amazon Warehouse purchases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
