Good to know. Appreciate you sharing it with your wife. I’m clueless when it comes to all of this stuff and am just hoping I can avoid any insane battles with these scumbags. Will probably wait a bit first to see if Bleep says anything back. I know calling the warehouse itself will just result in intimidation and trying to get me to just pay up, which is pretty sickening. I just don’t understand what grounds they even have to stand on here.

Sure hope so. They loaded those letters with scare tactics and threatened going to collections, etc., all for charges that make zero sense. Maddening.

Yeah I don’t know how this random place can, out of nowhere, send all of these random insanely high fees to me. How could anyone protect theirselves against this type of thing if it’s legit? Bleep was cooperative with me when I emailed them in mid-August when I said I thought the packages were lost. They told me the items were with customs and to sit tight... and now this. They didn’t respond when I followed up twice again last week.

Wasn’t sure where to post... Safe, Secure, SELF Loans The SELF Loan is administered by the MN Office of Higher Education, a state... http://selfloan.state.mn.us I ordered two separate multi-item orders from Bleep (UK) a while back, around $175/ea order including shipping, and I’ve presumed they were lost after both shipped in early July. Safe, Secure, SELF Loans The SELF Loan is administered by the MN Office of Higher Education, a state... http://selfloan.state.mn. I just received a letter from “Brick Mountain Warehouse” in New York who is claiming I owe them, out of the blue, $450 for holding my package(s?) and I’m being told they may still destroy my items after I pay the mandatory fees. Oh, and they can’t ship them to me, I’d have to pick them up in New York (I live in chicago). Photos of the letters they sent me. I was never contacted by anyone telling me any additional information or any type of duty fees were required to get my packages unstuck. Has anyone experienced anything like this? I’ve been ordering things overseas for over a decade and have never had a single issue before (save for maybe an actually-lost package once or twice).

Apparently these are shipping now, so I don't know you'll have a chance.

Yep, went for around the average market price. When the guy made the offer I told him about the (likely) upcoming repress and he claimed he was a hardcore OG collector and didn't care. I was pretty shocked.

Rough Trade did tell people that there would be an "exclusive retailer" (NIN store) for a certain edition of the soundtrack and that other stores (including them) would carry something slightly different. Who knows, maybe that's all changed, but I'm not chancing it. Happy as hell that I unloaded my OG earlier this year.

Really excited to save $40-50 by not buying this album.

The copy he sold went for $259.95 not $999.95, FWIW.
