I think the reaction was to the fact that even with the shipping, this is a a great deal; that this limited edition is only $7 is a really really good offer from 10C. I'm not sure why someone would pass on it just because the shipping happens to be more than $7. I think Santo's comment points out the fact that the person will see just what a great deal it is once these things start going up on Ebay!
And I was pointing out that I thought it was a ridiculous amount to ship a small record.
Its fine, I didnt want it to "flip" and I dont want it enough to get gouged on ebay for one either.
Yeah, fair enough... I guess 10C is just sick of hearing the shipping complaints when the item is a steal, I dunno. Personally, I don't mind when the item is an insanely good deal. If it were an expensive item AND the shipping was out of control, then I'd care.

I may end up with an extra 10c blue version from a friend. If this is the case I would be willing to trade for other RSD items i missed on including the band of horses, my morning jacket, and possibly the gary clark jr.
Pm sent~ Have a RSD MMJ on yellow/orange vinyl, ltd= 1k that I'd trade.
I guess thats how you get treated as a customer who decides not to purchase an item. Seems to be a recurring attitude from employess of Ten Club LLC towards their customers and the fans.
have you not seen how Santos gets treated around here? not only that, but it's no skin off his nose if you don't want to buy it. someone will. I think the general consensus by 10C is that they are sick and tired of answering the call from the fans for more merch and then all they get is people complaining about it.

I definitely think that some of the products are pricey, and I don't love the shipping charges, but if I don't want buy something I won't buy it. $14-15 for a limited, previously unreleased track isn't that bad of a deal. I paid $14 for Gaslight's RSD release yesterday, so its pretty fair in my opinion.

So because an item will sell out its cool to give a smart ass remark to a customer? I don't think so.
People have a right to question the ridiculous shipping charges.
I dont care who made fun of him. It's his job to handle questions about products/shipping from fans on the board run by the company with which he works for.
For the record, I did want to buy it. Saw the shipping and did not buy it. Won't buy it. All is well.
And so you see, I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you.
The comment from Santos is TOTALLY DOUCHEY. Sorry, just my opinion. No wait... I'M NOT SORRY! We oughta boycott buying anything. Actually, I'm going to. I'll keep my membership but I'm not buying $15 hoodies that cost almost $12 to ship anymore. It's funny that somebody ships me a hoodie UPS and it's half as much. Joke.

i think we all know why the shipping is like that in USA..i find it expensive and 10c need to find a way like find with international shipping to low the cost of shipping..
or give options how u want to ship it to you....first class or the way do it now
there is a possibility 10c did this ,priority with tracking number only option cos they have alot of people telling they didnt receive the item so 10c refund them or reship another item..
and from my experience here i learn one thing..
if you have an issue with orders,shipping, tix,memebrship etc..ONLY need to call 10c or email them..
almost always ,even not office hours will get an answer
by posting here??your issue?in the forum.the possibility to get an official answer from 10c..like....0.000001%
as for Santos answer,i understand the reason he said it and why,but its wrong the way he said it..sound disrespectful to Dr. Delight...there was better ,more polite ways to answer

I understand why you sting from the smart alec comment, but I have to admit that when I read it I smiled and thought, "yeah, no shit!" And moved on. I think Santos rocks. This isn't a Gap outlet. It's a discussion forum for a rock band. Get over getting some minor sass from the staff on the board. These are 10C people, not store clerks. It was an unexpected comment for you, but fuck it - it's not that big a deal.

Not that I love shipping charges (I've bitched about them before), but I'd also like to point out that there are TONS of other places with comparable shipping costs. Like, just about everywhere without a massive number of sales. Perhaps we're all just too used to Amazon-like shipping charges? Because honestly, every other place I've bought shit that isn't a pretty major seller has the same kinds of costs (yeah, I'm sure everyone can think of some exception, but I'm talking generally). I mean, I paid fucking $47 or something to have one record shipped to me (insured). J think it was $12.50 of something for shipping for the King Animal album from SGW. I was looking g at a product from See-See's candy shop in LA and the shipping for one item was $30 fucking bucks. Yes, shipping can be really pricey, but 10C isn't an enigma. That just seems to be what shipping generally costs with out mega-sales happening for the company. It sucks shit, but I'm also thinking that 10C isn't actually trying to gouge us, but are charging what they are paying themselves for the shipping. What j don't get is why they don't give an option - pay more for registered mail, or pay less for unregistered mail.

Amazon.ca usually offers free shipping for Canada if you're over a $24 purchase, but yeah, international shipping from 10c is now super cheap. I'm just talking about US shipping.

Yikes, the shipping more than the record. Gonna have to pass on this.
yeah, you're right. Best to save a few bucks on postage. You can always pick it up later on the secondary market.

I've seen far worse posts. if anything, this is only sarcasm and honesty.

has anyone received this yet? I know it's only been 6 days. I just thought it was odd my order status still says Warehouse. Just wanted to see if that's normal since my PO BOX where it was shipped to is kind of a far drive for me. thanks
