hope they do something about it

They won't, they don't care. It's been long enough to do something if they gave a shit.

No mistake, been this way for a long time.

Maybe it's like an overnight courier?

Shipping to NZ used to be shocking but has been a lot better for the last year or so.

Sadly, I agree. :(

I live in Argentina. I remember paying 14 bucks for PJ20 vinyl, and 11 for White Backspacer vinyl. I paid only 5.17 for Vault #3, and 5.38 for Lightning Bolt vinyl + CD. I always buy Pearl Jam's CDs from the 10C, they are different from what we get from the US, Europe or made in my country. 10C releases are way much better...

I couldn't say why you are charged 8.01 to ship a CD, I don't understand why don't make it 8 even. Are sales taxes and/or state taxes included in those 8.01?

That might be a good point. Some states do charge tax on online purchases and others don't. Maybe they're trying to find an equal balance?

Ok... I just re-did it.

$8.01 shipping for 10C vinyl only.
$8.01 shipping for 10C CD only.
$9.51 shipping for both.


Still not right. They could send it through Media Mail for probably half that price, but I bet it's still easier on their end to send everything out through the same method.

I wish they would do free shipping like they did for Backspacer.

I'd take that or a fix to the shipping issues for The US to make it more realistic. We still have 80+ days to pre-order so I'm holding out a bit hoping it is resolved before. Not holding my breathe...but hoping.

Don't ever hold your breath around here. You may fall and bump your head.

$5.37 to ship to Ireland

How is it cheaper to ship to Ireland than US?

Anyway I will be in the US at the time for work so probably just buy it in a store over there

$5.91 to the UK for the vinyl. I will get the cd in a local store so there is some chance I will hear it and flip through the artwork on the day of release.

Don't 10c have a contract with UPS? That's why shipping is high, if they went with the USPS, customers would save more in shipping...
