ahh, I´d totally would have ordered that MLIW 7" for $2.49. But $32 shipping for a 7"?

Yowza! I never realized how bad international shipping can be. If you wanna go through their clearance T-shirts section, you might find some stuff to defray the shipping cost (when I looked this morning, there were 13 pages of cheap-ass shirts just for men).

aye thanks Scott. Actually international shipping is not that expensive, normally you can send a 7" as cheap as $5 from the US to Germany via 1st class intl.

HT just has one international shipping option, and that´s intl express.

Here's the real question: Why does Hot Topic sell this stuff on clearance below their actual cost rather than just return it to the distributor for full credit? Would they lose that much money on double-shipping it back (once for each store to the main Hot Topic warehouse, then back to the distributor)? If they had any sense, they'd just keep a super-limited stock on-hand in each store until the other copies sell rather than getting 20 copies of a Lagwagon LP at the mall.

I believe (and I'm sure Travis can clarify) it's because Hot Topic doesn't do returns, they pay upfront for their product. I know when we (AP) put out a calendar a few years back, they bought half of the run from us and we were stoked because it meant no returns.

CDs are returnable but vinyl is never returnable.

Stores in the mall never get 20 copies of any vinyl. The internet is different, they get more stock than a normal store.

So yea, I have no sense and no idea what Im doing.

do these clearance prices apply instore too? wouldn't mind the Jaguar Love or Lagwagon but not high priorities. the shipping was more than the records.

Over the weekend there was a 50% off clearance but thats over now. Everything is still on clearance which is 50% off the reg. price but over the weekend it was an additional 50% off. Thats why everything was only a couple bucks.

I picked up the PMFS 2xLP and the Bad Brains - Build a Nation 7" box set for under $10 on Friday.
