TFP Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 No, not at all. I mean they sold 500 copies. Paypal credited an unknown amount of people back for their orders. Let's say 20 for arguments sake. So, Third Eye Blind is still sending out all 500 boxes, but basically they're only getting paid for 480 of them, or at least that's what I assume is happening. There is no information that would suggest otherwise. So in this case you're sticking it to the man(band)? chiefwahoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agreetodisagree Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I mean, what if a VC'er gets screwed? Depends on who got screwed, I guess. If it was someone who deals fairly on here like Toki or Loveless Wrists, or someone cool I've dealt with like Royce or Sapst, I'd considered it. Otherwise, who cares? You do know this is just a message board right? We don't owe these random people anything. Tommy, sergeantscruffy and Duff 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnywreck Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 This is like the ultimate Third Eye Blind lifehack. Well played, VC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasingbreakers Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Technically by law, you are allowed to keep anything that is delivered to your house, whether you ordered it or not: http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0181-unordered-merchandise Is it ethical? That's subjective. That applies to unordered merch that just shows up at your door, which I believe is designed to keep from companies shipping you unsolicited goods and then attempting to collect on them (i.e. "Oh we sent you a leather coat a month ago... did you open it? Well then you owe us $400"). If you ordered, and cancelled or filed a claim, but it still shipped by accident things aren't as clear cut and the rule your citing doesn't apply. buffylover29 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cesar11 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 According to fedex, I should be getting this tomorrow. Stupid cause the place from where it shipped from is literally 20 minutes driving distance from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawhizz Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Is there any way for them to reprocess your Order if they ship it to you and keep it? Or go back and challenge the refund? I wouldn't put anything past #Jenkins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lupe Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Can anyone Input on S/T comparing the first press and the non boxset repress? Any big difference? I didn't pull the trigger on the repress because it seemed the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tatom Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 FYI - i just got an email from 3EB saying my order has been cancelled at my request. My tracking number says 'initiated', so i have a feeling they'll stop the shipment on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergeantscruffy Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 New 3EB ineptitude scenario. 1. Third Eye Blind doesn't respond to our cancellation requests. 2. Paypal credits our account for the full amount paid. 3. Third Eye Blind mails us our boxed sets. 4. Third Eye Blind notifies us our orders are canceled. 5. Third Eye Blind refunds us our money (again). 6. The box set shows up anyway. Hey, a guy can dream right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisWithanF Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I'm not complaining. Not going to lie though, it would have been some sweet justice if it did happen, I've already expressed how I felt about their whole process. Still waiting on my individual copies though.

sergeantscruffy Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 ...Now it seems you guys are complaining you won't get a free $200 box set.... I don't think anyone is complaining. The premise of getting a free $200 was fun to think about, but it seems as though we'll be getting what we paid for, nothing, which is fine, you know, because we didn't pay for it.

TFP Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 You know, I was commenting on something said 2(?) days ago. You guys said there was a shipping confirmation and etc. details. So how is it you guys won't get the set? Can they redirect something currently in shipment? buffylover29 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how is it you guys won't get the set? Can they redirect something currently in shipment? My tracking number still says "initiated" so I assume they provided FedEx with the tracking info, but haven't actually sent it. I believe you can also recall a package once it is shipped, but I'm not a hundred percent sure. Then again, there is also the (small) possibility that these just show up at our doors anyway.
