Found In The Flood is a fucking phenomenal album. This band was always pretty good, but that album is just incredible.

I liked it alot, but I always felt PTF was their best.

New update! Just got a coupon for a cancelled order, and it was...five dollars.

The album was under 10 bucks so that may have something to do with it, but still, it's a change.

Beat me to it haha.  One difference between yours and mine, though... mine was a $50 album.

I just received a $5 discount code instead of the normal $10... This happen to anyone else?  I'm curious if they are changing to $5 codes or if it had something to do with my order in particular.

This album is incredible.  So happy I sprung for the PO.  But, I will say that getting the records in/out of the sleeves attached to the front inside and back inside cover of the book is frustrating...Might have to get a gatefold copy that I use on a regular basis.

Damn, would not have called that many points. Especially after Hoyer went down.

I'll go with Chicago since tml beat me to the Broncos haha.

early congrats to tml! haha

Edit: Changed my mind.  I pick Detroit!  Go Stafford Go.

No problem - I had a feeling you'd be slightly interested...

Let's do it. 

On an unrelated note, did you see Opus Eponymous is getting a special Black Friday RSD press of 1000 on blue/white split?

If you, or anyone else for that matter, places an order for an item that is in-stock and you use codes, and it's cancelled, seriously give Best Buy a call.  There's absolutely no reason an order for a product that is in-stock would be insta-cancelled, especially if you're paying a little bit extra on the order for the part the codes didn't pay for.  I would love to hear their explanation for that.  At the very least, they should be able to fix the fact that it was cancelled and fulfill your order.

I plan on it.  I don't think I would do anything if it happened on a backordered item, but if its something in stock I would feel much more comfortable calling and getting them to try to fix it/give an explanation.  As always, I'll report back when I end up pulling the trigger in a couple of weeks.

Every order I have placed has been from work.  I've gotten the intsa-cancel 3 times, but ordered the same items that canceled 2 days later and they went through.  And that was when I only had two or three open orders.  I have since made several orders when I've had more open orders and they went through.  All of my insta-cancels have been on morning orders; however, every order I've placed has been in the morning.  I have the records shipped to work, which is a different address than my billing address.  And I've had both paypal and cc orders cancel. I haven't found anything consistently that results in the insta-cancel.  The uncertainty makes me hesitant to place a 6-8 code order...

My copies will arrive on Thursday or Friday. Big thanks to those who ordered from me.

Thanks for the update.  Can't wait!

Also, keep an eye out, because a lot of times items go back and forth between being 'sold out online' and available again.

Thanks, NK.  I thought that might be the case.

made orders a day or two apart. its only if you place different orders on same day , you either you get one code for the day regardles of how many orders or none at all. but as long as orders are placed on different day you get codes.

Well then, I will be modifying my method.  Thanks for the info.

Edit: Dive is no longer available and listed as "sold out online".  I'm interested to see what happens to my current order...

 Dive has got me 2 codes this week alone. I have it on order again and so far no issues.

 

Looks like the whole auto cancel  thing is as random as getting codes.

How did it get you two codes this week?  Using different accounts or something?  I thought I remembered reading you could only have one of any given record on order at a time and still receive codes..?  Teach me your ways.

Placed an order for Dive about three and a half hours ago and it hasn't auto cancelled (yet, at least).  Different record that auto cancelled on me twice, though.  I'll be trying that one again in a day or two.

It says cheapest shipping option is $11.97??!! For only a 2LP album? Ridiculous.

Wow, that's stupid.  You can also get it from Best Buy ($2 shipping, I believe) or Amazon, which has free shipping if you're a Prime member.

Bringing some of these into my distro (vinyl color unknown). Just put a pre-order up.

I ordered one too.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  This is one I needed.

I'm in. Thanks, dude.

Then do it, my good man.

It would certainly liven up my Tuesday evening.

Sec,

I've been spinning that Minot 7" for the last 3 days... It's righteous.  So glad I won and discovered them because of your giveaway.  Thanks again, man!

I also had this happen to me a few days ago. I ordered the same record yesterday, using the same payment method, & had no issues this time.

Strange.  I hope that is the case with mine... the BB forums have tons of people with this problem, and alot of them never get their account working again.  Crossing my fingers :/

Has anyone had an order cancelled because BB "couldn't verify your information"? I thought maybe it was because I used paypal when I normally use a credit card, but I tried the cc and the order was cancelled again...

many men, many many many men, want to kill me

 

or something like that. I remember that song

I believe it's many men, many many many many men wish def pon me haha.  Classic song.

Update: ended up picking it up from Last Rights Records for only about $5 more than through the band's store. Can't complain!

www.lastrightsrecords.storeenvy.com if anyone else is looking.

Been looking on and off for a few days and I found a couple on discogs and one on nuclear blast, but both were alot more expensive and had more expensive shipping, so I figured I would try here before I spend too much money needlessly. But in the end, I'll do what I have to do... Its too good not to have.
