Everytime they release a cd/ dvd etc I keep buying from 10C.
Im a pjam fanatic and still don't have the new album in hand.

10C should've sent the international orders sooner and should also review their shipping costs.

Think I'll just buy locally from now on.

End of rant! :|

    The shipping got me this time. I ordered cd and vinyl from Easy Street. $9 to ship both at E.S. vs $24 to ship both from 10C.

    I think we (10C members) should get the new release a week earlier or else something extra to make us buy from 10C. I mean the new album is just around the corner from me but Im not buying a second copy.

    Times like this, all you can do is laugh :?

    I live in Colorado and haven't gotten it yet. I'm not taking it as hard as others are though. I was thinking about buying one tomorrow but I've been listening to it through myspace. It might hold me over until (hopefully) Monday.
    If I had known then what I know now...

    Its just a pain in the ass, thats all. I mean people who are not big fans of the band could just go out and buy it and I messed up and have to wait.
    Lesson learned.

    is this the first time you have pre-ordered?
    From what I understand, foreign orders are always late

    but hey, its out there
    and you should find it if you have already paid for it

    No, not the first time I preordered. You would of thought I'd learned my lesson.
    Us "Foreigners" never learn!

    Yes, the album is available if you want to download it illegally.
    Just frustrated I don't have my cd. Im sure you'd feel the same if you didn't have yours.

    well I did receive it today, but it was a non-event-the artwork is nice, but other than that it went strait on the shelf
    personally, i dont have a problem with the DL IF you already paid for it.

    Agree, agree, agree. What is the point of pre-ordering if it arrives after the release date? I am also tiding myself over on MySpace, but it just isn't the same.
    By the way, best 2 songs are Gonna See My Friend and Just Breathe...

    Goddamned sneaky way of getting us to buy two copies, imo. I have to wait 4-8 wks for my 10 club one, no way could I wait that long so of course I've already bought my copy from a local shop. In a way I dont mind if it helps the album sales go though the roof, but I'll know next time not to expect my 10 club copy to get there on time.

    If it were me, I'd go buy a second copy.

    Then when your 10C copy comes in, return it to the store you bought the other one from and get your money back.

    Or give the second copy to a friend or family member.

    I decided to buy a Target copy even though I ordered one from 10c that still hasn't arrived yet. I've spent a lot more than $11.98 on the band. I guess it wasn't that big of a deal. Plus there are the free downloads we can access now instead of waiting for the mysterious "vault."
    If I had known then what I know now...

    I live in Ireland too, but what I do is buy the CD in the local record store and buy the Vinyl from the 10c, so it works out sweet!
