cj Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 hmm... so it looks like i will actually get mine that was cancelled after monday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainmorgan Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Wow, what a fiasco. I'm pretty psyched to still get mine, though. i just managed to track down 1,2,&3 and I was bummed that I missed the second (third?) preorder on Tues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melikecheese Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I fail to understand what that paragraph means. If the collated orders that means there had to be more then 1 to combine, so I have not idea if I will get one or not, since I only got a successful order the first day.

cj Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 it means that if anybody got one on monday and tuesday they would only get one, but people who got one monday and not tuesday would still get one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hickey Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 It means everyone who received an order confirmation, regardless of what day that was, will receive the 7" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowserhound Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Fuck Matador. Stick with slaying Bulls, as internet sales is clearly not your niche. The whole 'each release will be more and more rare - even though we will never tell how many exist' was such a stupid fucking idea in the first place.

thischarmingham Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I think at this point they shouldn't do mail order at all for these going forward. When it gets down to the final 7" they'll have less than 500 7"s to sell. Even if they had all 500 to sell and they sold them at $4 a piece that'd be like $2000. Is it worth $2k to have your website fucked and a bunch of unhappy customers? I might be partial, owning a store myself, but I think they should send them all out to stores and have people bother us instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that would be the smartest way to handle the final 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melikecheese Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 so I got a copy today from my original first day pre-order. I didn't get a successful order in the second time. The fun thing about this. My original auth was canceled so at this point my card was never charged. I don't see another auth attempt pending and something tells me I won't... anyone else get a free copy at this point?

I might have, I succesfully ordered and matador withdrew the charge from my bank account, I'm in the process on moving out of my apt. though, so hopefully it'll be there next time I go to check mail/move stuff.
