A-Bon Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 if anyone has a copy of Fever... could you spare me a copy?? Pleeeeeeeez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
213041284s Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Mine wasn't cancelled, but I ordered literally right when I saw it go up Order date: 2012-11-09 02:45:31 To the guy who ordered around 4 and everyone else after yeah it's really sh*tty of HT to pull that off =/ Unfortunately I bought only 1 copy of each, but remember they said they had to cut off the pre orders at a certain number to calculate the demand, and that the records would be put back in stock online and in select stores around the release date, so there's hopefully a second chance for everyone Do you think they'd put the cancelled orders on some sort of "wait list?

californiaflow Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 There was a BIN of a first pressing that was on eBay for $35 but I think the dude bumped it higher now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockieftw Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I really hope I can snag a copy if they go back up. I had 2 in my order for me and a friend to save on the international shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh that might be why you got cancelled then. I remember a bunch of international people getting the recent thrice represses and having their orders cancelled. Even someone on here that tried to do a group buy for Germans, if I remember correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockieftw Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 That's pretty shit when they charge huge amounts for international shipping. Try to save a few bucks and get fucked over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even someone on here that tried to do a group buy for Germans, if I remember correctly. Guess, what just happened again? Half of the order cancelled, the rest shipped, shipping costs remained the same. I am seriously angry right now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even someone on here that tried to do a group buy for Germans, if I remember correctly. to me this is the only explanation, because i ordered one like 5 hours after this dude and i have a "fulfilling order" with a tracking #international people who are getting boned - when the remaining copies go back up i'll try to help you guys out! we'll fool them with my sweet USA postal address!

I am seriously angry right now... hot topic definitely deserves a trophy for its shitty service regarding international customers. in comparison to many other US online retailers this is beyond ridiculous.

searos Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I am actually surprised hot topic is not big enough to expand into Europe and japan with retailers and a few distribution centers. Japan seems to have a hard on for western culture and online retailers would at least fair well in Europe. If nothing else international distribution centers could lower the cost of foreign transactions and help penetrate overseas markets with products there is already a demand for. If the whole online retailer was available with more balanced shipping rates based on country and selection was similar across regions than Hot Topic would receive a lot more overseas traffic and demand.

rossd Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I don't have an email from HT but I'm going to shit it every time the new email tone goes off on my phone from now on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-Bon Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Can i ask... for who has had their orders cancelled, when you log into HT website and goto "track order", Does your item say cancelled ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockieftw Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Guess, what just happened again? Half of the order cancelled, the rest shipped, shipping costs remained the same. I am seriously angry right now... I emailed and complained that my shipping stayed the same amount for one record as when I had five and they refunded all my shipping cost.

isavedlatin54 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I emailed and complained that my shipping stayed the same amount for one record as when I had five and they refunded all my shipping cost. i could be wrong, but dont they have flat rate shipping?

isavedlatin54 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 ps i notice a trend with people getting fucked when it come to HT pre orders....maybe they should just not do them anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantheriver Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I'm 1/1 on HT preorders, going for 2/2. So far both times they have even sent my additional items in my order separately at no additional cost. I think in general it's just international orders, and especially international orders with multiple items, that seem to be getting dicked.

Lockieftw Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 i could be wrong, but dont they have flat rate shipping? I only ordered the extra record because I was making the order for the PATD and FOB. I emailed and asked them to cancel War All The Time because I have the OP but it was already sent. No way would I pay $45 shipping on a $15 record haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than the fact my other item was fucked up (which has nothing to do with the preorder), I got it separately and early, and I recently got my other half of this package and shipping stayed the same. Love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
