agaetisbyrjun Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I am thoroughly excited for this album, and opted to stay awake for this PO (even though I knew it wouldn't sell out by any means). But those prices are a huge joke. I'm not sure whether I want to laugh or just be disappointed. Even if shipping was free, $29 PPD for a single LP is highway robbery. Huge nope on my end; hopefully a cheaper option presents itself somewhere down the road. To be fair, it is a 2XLP but even then shipping is beyond ridiculous. Gonna wait till it hits my local store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt see these until just now. Fucking hilarious *all of run the jewels obligations to you are null and void the second you start freestyling. Money is non refundable. Crying will get you nowhere.

dantheriver Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Ordered at Amazon. If they knock it off with the $20 shipping card I might cancel and order directly from them so I can get that rad poster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyawful Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 One shipping option for $20? And thats just the normal record with nothing else. Ouch Yeah, that was a shock. I still bought it though. Fuck, I'm what's wrong with the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepunkguy Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 I don't think this is going to be on the LP but a new RTJ for adult swim here. https://m.soundcloud.com/adultswimsingles/oh-my-darling-dont-cry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxbyaaahxx Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 What a fuckin joke. $28 UPS shipping to Canada, which they also charge me tax on. Mother fucker, I live in fuckin Canada. I don't pay American taxes. Not to mention I then pay duty on the shipment due to UPS being fuckin twats. I'll wait till this is on amazon since the 2LP doesn't seem to be limited or fuck all.

thepunkguy Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 It is. It's the second track. doh. that's what I get for not checking before I post.. either way. NEW SONG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doomcreep Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 But yeah, I'm super bummed out by $20 shipping for a 2xLP. And $93 shipped for the 4xLP? I love RTJ as much as the next guy but I don't think I can bring myself to pay that much. Those bonus packages are too legit, though.

thepunkguy Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 so here is what I say we do.. we all write them an email complaining about the shipping on (the vinyl only options) to [email protected] . I just wrote one. nyhi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natenomm Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I'll probably just buy it when I see 'em live this fall. If they're coming even relatively close to where you live, I recommend you do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuietCity Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Just got two of the deluxe vinyl packages. Also for the people complaining the $26 dollar vinyl is a package with a signed poster and sticker sheet. I do have to agree shipping is super expensive.

Blaine Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I'm in agreement with everyone that the single shipping option is far too high, and while this may not justify the cost the fact they're giving the album away for free might start to explain the exorbitant prices. I personally would prefer they reward the fans that are interested in paying for the album in the first place, but it's also a business and we as consumers have a choice to buy or not to. I chose to drink the Kool-Aid and pick up the 4xLP edition. QuietCity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepunkguy Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 follow up to my email to them.. "Hi Kristan The package is 4 pound and 4 records. We use UPS ground to ensure the package is well taken care of and not lost in the process. As we’ve had nightmares with media mail in the past. We’ll hook you up with a 10% off coupon, valid for 12 hours: thanks J" nyhi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Questhate Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Not happy about dropping $95-ish for the deluxe 4LP but like a lot of you guys, I did it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blaine Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I mean. I am definitely not one to bitch about pricing.. however. let's just say that the costs already are a bit high and us buying a "deluxe vinyl package" for 65.00 is enough price hike to make sure that Mike and El P see some returns from this purchase.. I think not offering a media mail option is just stopping them from getting paid.. you know? I actually bought one. I don't mind but I know that they're not going to get more money cause so many people on this board don't want to pay that shipping. and let's be clear. this is shipping costs. so.. if they send it at priority or whatever they're using that costs 20.00 no one is making any money from the expensive shipping follow up to my email to them.. "Hi Kristan The package is 4 pound and 4 records. We use UPS ground to ensure the package is well taken care of and not lost in the process. As we’ve had nightmares with media mail in the past.

That's pretty cool they sent you a 10% off coupon. As for them not getting paid because the shipping will turn prospective buyers away, you make a good point as some here have already demonstrated. I personally did not want to miss out on the album like I did with the original press for their first release on Fool's Gold. The pros outweighed the cons in this instance, for me. thepunkguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
