    Do both. Go online while literally in line. Get in line around 4am though and do lines of blow to help you stay in line while inline. Hopefully the lines will help you focus while inline and online so you can click refresh online and land you some mystery vinyl while in line for vinyl.

    I can't imagine being fast enough on a phone to get something that will sell out immediately. It doesn't seem possible to me. You can't type and navigate a phone as fast as a home computer, at least I can't.

    if you were doing lines while inline and online you might be able to.

    i will not do it thief club

    i don't need an extra copy of black backspacer

    Awesome! More space Saturday morning for the rest of us. I don't have backspacer yet so I'm happy if I'm fortunate enough to grab this Saturday morning. If I got backspacer I'd be happy bc the record plus the fun and anticipation is worth the $$ to me.
    Nice optimism, but you know you can buy Backspacer for a big fifteen bucks in the shop right? :) The anticipation is good though. I'm waking up to give it a try. And if I get a Backspacer I'll trade you!

    Haha! Yes I'm aware it's there. It's not my favorite so I've been holding out and squirreling my vinyl funds together to save for all the others I also don't have yet. My point is, even if I happen to get my least desired vinyl, I'll still be happy bc I don't have it yet anyway and the anticipation of 1. being lucky enough to buy one 2. then of waiting for it to be delivered 3. then of opening it is worth it to me!

    That's my take too :) But I'm getting ready for the big disappointment of not scoring anything as well :lol:

    High hopes & zero expectations should be the only way to look at it! :tongue:
  • I think I'll stay away from the boards this coming weekend. there will undoubtedly be a whole shitload of whiners complaining they didn't even get a shot at buying anything and how crappy 10C is for doing this. And those who scored something will undoubtedly thank 10C for how it was run. :hang_loose:

    I will definitely go online while in line to attempt to score some vinyl while in line for vinyl. I'll pass on the lines of blow while inline getting online since standing in line for more than an hour blows.

    Too much funny over the last page or so!

    Me? I'm hoping to just get the vinyl....and if it causes me to end up with duplicates, well then...trade bait or maybe pay it forward.

    I reckon the packages are already made up. Just slap the shipping labels on in the order they come out of the printer and they're good to go.

    It can be done. I snagged a Moline poster on my phone while I was at work.

    That's what I do. I don't think it takes any more time, as long as you have your CC number copied and ready to paste. If your address is already on file there isn't any typing to do....

    I said it during the Moline poster sale, you have to train. Practice typing In your CC info, get your wife, or a loved one to throw scenarios at you like a power failure (get to your phone!) or an unwelcomed boss or coworker in your office etc...

    Practice doesn't make perfect, perfect practice does.

    Is anybody else wondering why they do this at 10 am EDT? Is it so the Westcoasters have a good chance at still hitting the record stores early?

    I encourage more people to go to RSD at a store. Someone's gotta buy up all those Aha picture discs!

    Yes, that will be me. Great song from my high school years.

    A couple of things...

    Can anyone confirm what time these go on sale for Australians? I think it might be 12am AEST? If anyone knows for sure that would be great.

    Secondly (and forgive my paranoia here), how is the shipping costs going to affect any internationals that are lucky enough to grab a mystery pack?
    Obviously with the boxes and posters, weight was fairly standard access the board however when you look and the possible inclusions (and lucky ones) of a Benaroya box or Sevens box, these weigh more right?

    I would hate for the next postage label to be slapped onto an order be mine but then not because the box/shipping was going to be international and it was slightly thicker or heavier.
