Online sales of RSD releases


Recommended Posts

Welp. Got this email from Marvelio today (regarding Far Cry 3). To me, it doesn't even look like they ever sent it. The timeframe for me to get it hasn't even passed yet, and they are already refunding me after I just asked for a tracking number. Weird. Oh well, atleast I got my money back.

 

Dear Customer,

Your order has been dispatched as planned and as of now, has not been returned to us. We have of course already contacted the delivery service.

Unfortunately we were not able to provide a replacement delivery because the item is temporarily out of stock. Furthermore, this item is currently not available at any of our suppliers.

Since we would not like to keep you waiting, we cancelled your order and have refunded the cost of purchase.

Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience.

We would be pleased if you would consider us for future orders.

Sincerely

-Marvelio

 

Looks like you scored a free record... I believe the Far Cry 3 was coming from Germany.

Still waiting here too. I just emailed yesterday and got the first stock response. And I agree, if nobody gets this that negative feedback should be left.

I got that email too and I'm not missing any kind of package so I'm pretty sure it's spam.

Yeah, I think that's just spam (probably the kind not good for your computer). In no way tied to your order or any order you've placed.

 

Yea def spam. Fuck.

Are you part of the Marvelio screwed over crew too?

What happens after all the flippers sell REM for $200-300? Do they disappear forever or do they get reflipped again?

Highly unlikely they will be fliped again.  There are about 10 copies on Discogs in that price range and they've been there for a couple of weeks.  If it is difficult to sell them at $250, how could you possibly buy one and reflip it?

 

They will never disappear but after the flipper scum drop their prices or people cave in and pay the prices listed now, you won't see them for sale a lot but they will show up from time to time.

Part of the Marvelio crew waiting on a Far Cry 3. Yet to receive record.

 

I'll bet this is what happened: Marvelio realized they sold a bunch of copies to people in the United States at a loss due to only charging $3.99 for shipping. They jacked up the price to $80, actually sent those and will refund everyone who ordered a $40 copy.

im part of the marvelio waiting party, but never received that spam message you guys received. I honestly think we got screwed. I emailed them and they said this:

 

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your request.

Your order has already been processed. As quoted on Amazon we only assure a delivery within 7-14 business days, however, we have noticed that the delivery could take more time than expected.
Please feel free to contact us again if your order does not arrive within the given time frame. At that time we will try to find an acceptable solution for you.

Sincerely
-Marvelio
