zachobbs Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Does anybody else ever do so many pre-orders that you forget what all you ordered? I was working my ass off all this week because I am broke (which I am sure all the pre-ordering has something to do with...), and three times I came home and had records waiting for me that I vaguely remember ordering a while ago. Its like coming home to free records, because I paid for them months ago. Makes the work week a little less shitty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcm1610 Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I have a saved folder in my email titled "orders" and I save all emails regarding my outstanding purchases. That way I don't entirely forget what's supposed to be arriving soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexH. Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I have an incoming list on my tradelist, which is basicaly for me to remember what I ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhulud Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I have an incoming list on my tradelist, which is basicaly for me to remember what I ordered. Same here. If I didn't, I would be surprised about any records I receive that I don't remember ordering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatlinemole Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 i'm kicking myself because i pre-order a record, but i also buy 1-3 other records at the same time to save shipping, but then i have to wait until the pre-order comes out before i get the 'in-stock' ones. Example: i ordered Sparta - Threes, Dashboard - The Shade of Poison Trees, and 27 - Holding on for brighter days. COME ON SPARTA! i want to listen to some dashboard! ahaa..

burntwolf Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 yea i save all the e-mails, but i still forget if something takes forever to get here... every so often i go back and clear out all the paypal receipts and stuff for things that finally showed up...

daniel Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 At no point in time have I ever been waiting for more than 2 records at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon720 Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I have a saved folder in my email titled "orders" and I save all emails regarding my outstanding purchases. That way I don't entirely forget what's supposed to be arriving soon. Exactly what I do. I have an "Orders" and "Pre-Orders" tab. Makes everything a lot easier to remember.

swank Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Personally, I have a .txt file on my desktop thats just a list of whats coming. ANYways, speaking of pre-orders, does anyone know roughly when H2O & New Found Glory are each going to ship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manicdogbert Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I keep an Excel spreadsheet of all new releases coming out, stuff that i have on order, where it's coming from, how much, when i paid, etc. i'm OCD like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hvmyselfabear Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I tend to get blackout drunk and order records, and then when they show up a week or two later it's like Christmas. I guess that's kind of the same thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest genericinsight Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I have an incoming list on my tradelist, which is basicaly for me to remember what I ordered. same, it helps me keep track of what's coming. I always add something in the second I make an order otherwise I'll forget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vito Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I have a saved folder in my email titled "orders" and I save all emails regarding my outstanding purchases. That way I don't entirely forget what's supposed to be arriving soon. i have one titled "incoming" as well. if i don't look in there for a couple of weeks i do forget some of it though.

derbsauce Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I always put my paypal payments, various orders, ebay invoices, whatever I spend e-money on in an "Important Mail" folder...and then I have a Sticky on my desktop with "Vinyl/etc coming in the mail" so I never forget what I've ordered or what is in transit...so...I guess...no I don't have the same problem.
