So I'm gonna write out this "method" in the OP. If you've made this work with the backordered record not shipping and getting a code, post your story. Even if you already have, I wanna see then so I can compile.

How many records? What records? How many orders? Payment method? How many codes received? When received the codes? And any other question you feel needs answered. :)

 

Cripes, don't do this.  Horrible idea.

I bought Panic! - Pretty. Odd., Circa Survive - Blue Sky Noise, Fall Out Boy - Folie A Deux and The Rooftops - A Forest of Polarity all in the same order this weekend. Then I saw people say that they had to be separate orders to get separate credits, so a couple days later I put an order in for Folie and a separate order in for Rooftops. I checked them today, the single rooftops still says backordered, the order with the 4 records still have all 4 labeled as backordered, but the order with just Folie now has a green checkmark in the processed part (all others have a yellow warning sign ! thing), and says that the order can't be cancelled.

 

So I guess it's actually gonna ship? haha

Trying to order Pretty. Odd but it says it's not available to ship. Am I missing something? 

Also, not seeing any Friday Night Lights LPs. 

 

It seems like they're starting to get smart about it haha they've taken FNL off of the site and changed Panic! to only available for in store pickup. So you won't be able to do it with those two anymore. They've also made Circa Survive - Blue Sky Noise unavailable on online.

 

Although I'm curious as to what happens if you do in store pickup and no stores have it either, maybe just have to cancel the order?

you can't order it if you don't set a store that has it in stock to order it.

Its kinda insane that this is still happening.  Just got another $10 credit.  I went ahead and placed two more orders that probably wont fill* (still have one other back-ordered item that I'm waiting on the $10 coupon for). 

 

 

*But, I'd be stoked if they did.

 

 

Here's what I'm doing every time I get a coupon... As soon as the code comes in, I'm finding an album for $12.99 or less that I really want and ordering it. 

 

So far I've got Radiohead- In Ranbows and O Brother Where Art Thou Soundtrack for a total of $2.99.  LOLZ.

This may be the beginning of the end..

Im not seeing any guaranteed backordered items left that you can actually order. I blame the idiots ordering 25 copies at once lol

 

I just ordered three different backordered items that I'm pretty sure aren't going to ship.
