mkhaytman Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 So is the 50% automatically applied? I'm not entirely sure. I asked the clerk if they would be 50% off, they rang up as 9.99 and at the end they all got recalculated to 4.99. I guess she had to apply some code?

Waters Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 It's automatic. I've been to a couple stores- a lot of good stuff to be had, and everything has been 4.99 or less. Pretty awesome chance to get stuff you didn't know you wanted, but would grab for $5. Most with downloads, some limited colors, splatters, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I've been to three stores. Bought tons of stuff listed in this thread and left behind tons more. Looking for Twin Shadow and DIIV if anyone wants to trade. PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Quik Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Are the records on sale clearly marked at the UO store? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryantark Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Are the records on sale clearly marked at the UO store? Yes, most in a "Sale" section with $9.99 orange stickers on the back. But, some of us have found non-marked items. I found one on the display wall, not marked, rang up fine. Gotta know the items before you head in.

soundofsilver Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Then when you take it to the register you get another 50% off? if it's on sale, yes. the associate might not know about it, so you might have to mention it. they put a special code on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgoodtobefree Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I bought some records for $10 before the 50% off sale. Is there any way I go in and get 50% off applied to them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvham Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Tried it at two different UO and they both said no way. I brought my receipt in and they credited me the difference. It says right on the bottom of the receipt that price adjustments will be honored once within 14 days of purchase. Basically they returned the albums at $9.99 then repurchased them at $4.98 - and no, I didn't need to bring the albums in with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were spewing some bullshit about how it wasn't a single item markdown, it was a flash sale, and it didn't apply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvham Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Yes, as long as you do it before the sale is over on the 6th. As for the David Lynch album, the markdown price is in the system, so it should ring up 9.99 in store regardless if it's marked as such. I wasn't even going to try until I saw this from an UO employee...sucks that they wouldn't do it for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just a normal guy kevin Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I don't want to blame the victim but knowing your shit and standing firmly by it, even when a 19 year old Instagram model tells you no and his/her grumpy 34 year old manager says "we do that but not this time because [enter weird excuse]", goes a loooong way. Easier said than done but it's OK for it to get weird and uncomfortable before it gets better. whose_thare 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just a normal guy kevin Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Next time, use our shared experiences of success on VC as your foundation of truth. Or just lie and pretend you know more than you do/be annoying and argue until they do what you're asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tetsuodaironman Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Your home. For FREE Also, even if it isn't in your store, or online, go to your local store, have the rep check the inventory (as mentioned already), and if another store has it, they will send it to you, for free. I just had mine get the David Lynch and the Knife from another store. $4.99 each Word? You're getting Lynch too!? And only for $5??? Damn....
