don't tell him what to do you aren't his mother kiddo

Addendum: You can't enjoy it period unless it's a variant

^^^^ People join this forum just for variant news. Its what people do. I cant get mad at people just discovering him or for people wanting this rare LP. Ive done it for other artists. We're all collectors. We all enjoy the hunt. I hope people enjoy the album if they ever open it.

Well lets put it in the past and I apologize for my behavior, though I am really aggravated about how this situation went. I love color vinyl even though I have too many of them, it just sucks paying premium for the black when there is a chance it could drop though Ill probably buy the Uk edition for 25$ when it goes up.

Are you kidding me? I am the turd? You know what I am not even going too because all it'll do is get this thread locked up and ruin it for others. Grow up and that same advice goes to the others who will try to carry on this petty argument.
But you quoted me directly so obviously it was a personal response.
Again i stated why I didn't get it from Bowie's website and I ordered my copy a day after release thinking nothing of it.

Hey dumbshit, don't go making assumptions about other users when you know nothing.  I've been a Bowie fan all my life so don't say vaguely.  Second, yeah I like having the variant, it's an OCD thing and when I can get the variant for the same price I rather do that and I don't feel like paying premium for a standard black when it can drop in price any time.  
 
 
 
 
I only made an exception because I found a decent deal for the variant, I would have bought it from a record store if I could.  The Bowie store was ridiculously expensive for a clear but if I could get the clear for a 1$ more than I'm okay with that.  

So I pre-ordered the clear version back in November and now Barnes & Nobles just cancelled my order. Apparently, regardless of whether its coming back in stock on their website, they cancel pre-ordered automatically and once you order is cancelled they can't un-cancel it. I spoke to to someone on their instant chat and he guaranteed that I would still receive the item. Yesterday they cancelled the order, so I called customer service and worked my way up the chain trying to get them to un-cancel the order and got fed a bunch of lies, I started getting pissed and the supervisor who claimed there was no one else I could talk to hung the phone up on me. So I called back and went up the customer service ladder and got a different person at the top who said they could un-cancel the order but it will probably be automatically cancelled again. FUCK Barnes and Nobles, they are a terrible company with horrible logistic planning and I can't wait for them to go out of business. 

I hope an entire company shuts down and loads of people lose their jobs because I didn't get a record one time.
Makes sense.

If anyone is looking for a standard copy, found a local spot that has one. I can link you to their site if you DM me because they only have 1 in stock

I would've gone into the store and called out both employees, demanding someone confess to lying, then I would complain to their superior. But I make people take accountability for shit.

SRC has it for sale, will be in stock on the 28th.
Had another phantom B&N clear copy appear in stock for me last night that I reserved and was denied this morning. This damn thing.

I finally found a black copy and I'm going to tell myself I don't need the clear because the album is called BLACKstar. The lies I tell myself...

My pleasure. Got to look out for each other. Rising tide floats all boats.

If anyone on here lives in Detroit or Nashville and can pick up a copy of the Hateful Eight OST I would be forever grateful

This
I remember when they opened up for the White Zombie / Pantera tour.
I also saw them on that last Incubus tour (Incubus sounded terrible). The energy was amazing but his voice just isn't what it used to be live.

I had the chance to buy multiple copies and passed up on it. Everyone makes mistakes. 

It's just so absurd. Oh well. I should have ordered like 10. Shoulda woulda coulda.

Ok but what if the plant was running behind like always and it was almost release date? For smaller labels they just say "sorry everything is delayed" but I could see them shipping out a portion of the total pressing for a release like this.
Not saying this is what happened, just saying it doesn't sound too unrealistic.

Pretty much nonexistent.

Definitely. It demands full attention while reading the given lyrics. 

Holy shit, this album rules.

It is fucking next level.

Walked into my local store the other day and they had 3 copies, grabbed one and hid it in the clearance since I had about 5 dollars in my account, went back when I got paid and they sold the other two grabbed the one I hid and purchased it. Glad I did because the girl at the desk said some dude bought the 2 copies and was hoping they had more. Probably to flip.
The night of his death my friends and I were having a party and one of them had bought it and stuck it on the turntable, we were all drinking and all really enjoying the record, about an hour later my friend comes inside, turns the music down and says "Guys, Bowie just past away" it was such a horrible moment for all of us. The rest of the night was one huge Bowie playlist.

Its funny how this thread was 2 pages before his death, now it blew up with "all these longtime Bowie fans" who are only interested in a limited variant................................................................Now if only I could figure out what is going on

I saw that and it was stupid. There has been way more out of control stuff on this board than what was going on there. Now, people can't post leads for other people to find that damn record. Unlock that shit!
