corey. Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 If labels don't start giving me special discounts for my self perceived loyalty I'm not going to support them anymore. batnoises, CastellaKiowa and RockPuppetz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkinglot Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 It's shitty to ask a label to apply a discount that wasn't active when you bought stuff. Bottom line. That's not the point of "sales". CastellaKiowa and RockPuppetz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanyrecords Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Okay we get it guys, you disagree with me. Let's move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockPuppetz Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Okay we get it guys, you disagree with me. Let's move on. It's not about disagreeing, you're just straight up wrong. If I buy a record and a while down the line the record gets a permanent price decrease its not cool for me ask the label to pay back the difference, let alone a temporary price decrease. But yeah, lets not derail the thread. I can't tell If I want to finally jump on that Mister Lies record now that its cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orchidtapes Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Hey, we're still waiting on them to arrive. It's probably cuz we ordered a larger quantity of tapes but they're still not set to arrive until Monday or so, we should have most of them out by the middle of the week though, new HEAVEN records are set to arrive at the same time too. New Ontario Gothic are coming like a week and a bit later, and the Swung from The Branches records are gonna be here the first week of March Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainaldous Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Kess is complaining about 25% off his OT order while I'm a broke 20 year old college attending father, supporting my family and funding my own record label. That thought never even crossed my head. RockPuppetz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainaldous Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Not that any of us know his situation, but if it's that awful don't pre-order 28 dollar records on a whim. RockPuppetz and corey. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runforcover Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 i have never heard of any store / label or anything applying a discount to orders BEFORE discount/promotion was started, ridiculous I said this in another thread and was essentially told I was wrong. Even if there are labels that do this, to expect this to be the standard is crazy to me. What is the acceptable cutoff for placing an order and a sale going up where you can ask for that discount, and not be a complete asshole? A day? 3 days? A week? Two weeks? There's no standard, so it just can't happen or people are just going to get more pissed about other related discrepancies. Even if a label did this for someone who ordered 3 days prior to the sale, that person's going to go post on a message board that they got hooked up, and someone who ordered 5 days before the sale is going to ask for the same, with the argument that the person who ordered only 3 days before got the discount. Gotta give that guy the discount too. Then people who ordered a week ago are going to email you, and this just creates more work, causes orders to go out slower, and will likely remain an issue for a while. dylanbyronfoy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orchidtapes Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Yeah I'm sorry to anyone that was looking for that kind of thing, but this isn't really something that we can do. There have already been a few people who've sent emails to us about the discount and if we were to refund even one person, we'd have to give the same treatment to everyone (and whoever else would come forth expecting the same afterwards) and it would just set a precident that would create way too much additional work for us around a time that we're trying to celebrate / give something back to those who are interested in partaking in our sale. batnoises, RockPuppetz and erthan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkinglot Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 There have already been a few people who've sent emails to us about the discount Hahahahahaha. If you did this, fuck you. That's not how the world works, sorry. I'm probably more bitter about this type of conduct than most because I work in retail, and people are seriously a fucking joke sometimes. "Hey, I bought this pair of shoes 42 days ago for my son for Christmas. They're on sale now since it's after Christmas, can I get the sale price? No? Okay, I'm just going to return them since you have a 60 day return policy, and then buy them back at the sale price". Yes, that happens to me. People suck.

kamalatapes Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Yeah retail sucks, I did my time, I work with zero customers now and oh my god, it is li TRALLY heaven on earth. Speaking of heaven on earth, are you ever dropping Yohuna's LP on OT Warren? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Rarity Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I mean to be fair in this case probably no one has received their items yet. Amazon always gives you the lowest price on preorders. I'm fine not getting the discount but i understand where people are coming from.
