BEST POST I READ ABOUT MYSTERY VINYL..HAHAHAHAHAHAHA./..EPIC!!!
"A tale of woe from this weekend.
Early Saturday morning I went down to the local convenience store because they were having a sale on Coke. I haven’t bought a Coke in a while so I figured I would show up and get one. Other cola is good, but real Coke is special.
Well it was a really good sale and there was only one left by the time I got there. So I picked it up and went to the cashier. I didn’t have any cash so I got out my credit card. When I handed it to the cashier, he asked to see my ID. So I got out my ID and handed it over. He looked at it and then handed it back. But when I tried to hand him my credit card, he stopped me and told me he had memory problems and could not remember who I was. So he asked for my ID again. Confused, I gave him my ID a second time. He looked it over and handed it back. I tried to give him my credit card again. He apologized, said something about OCD, and then asked for my ID again, just to be on the safe side. This went on for about 15 minutes.
Once I finally convinced him that I was who I said I was, he accepted my credit card. But he had trouble swiping it. He tried to swipe it again and again, but the machine wouldn’t read it. So he tried to manually enter the numbers. But before doing that, he once again needed to be reminded who I was, so he asked for my ID again. After 15 minutes or so, he was finally able to successfully enter my credit card number into the register. However, just before he could punch the button to complete the sale, the register apparently blinked off and then back on again, as if it had momentarily lost power. My credit card info was somehow cleared and was no longer on the screen. So the cashier had to re-enter it, after again checking my ID of course, because he wanted to be extra sure I was who I said I was. At this point, my patience was coming to an end and the people in line behind me were getting frustrated.
I set the Coke down on the counter and asked if I could help. The cashier asked me to come look at the screen and see for myself. So I walked around the counter and looked and sure enough, the machine was acting erratically. Every time he entered my credit card number, the screen would blank out and he would have to start over. Now the worst part. The guy behind me was disappointed that they were out of Coke so he got a Pepsi instead. But when I walked around the counter, he saw my Coke sitting there. He must have thought I had abandoned it. Before I could react, he picked up my Coke. Not one second later a second cashier came back from break, opened their register and called for the next person in line. The guy with my Coke took five steps to the right, whipped out his card, gave it to the cashier, paid and walked off with the last Coke while I stood there with my jaw open, examining my cashier’s blank screen. I gathered myself and quietly told the cashier that I would go ahead and take a Pepsi. He asked for my ID.""
LMAO frickin brilliant.

Just got confirmation that it's being sent to warehouse for shipping I got no email confirmation though and it only showed up in my order history yesterday... What a strange experience. I tried for over an hour to purchase it It took several goes to accept my billing address, shipping address and credit card number. Finally at the end the screen just went blank so I presumed I lost out.
I see it as I got the 2nd best result of getting shut out: Nothing.
I would rather nothing than get a Brad and a single I already own (own and like Brad too).
Optimally, I would have scored, got Avocado, LD, Yield, etc... but likely not.
The site gets really annoying though for these sales. This would have probably been better served via lottery since it is basically a lottery anyways. Those glitches on the site are maddening. I spent 40 minutes dealing with them, it was sold out, and later I found out if I spent only another 40 minutes of a beautiful Saturday Spring morning in front of a computer and not outside, I would have been able to buy one.

F@cking Hilarious and on point about Saturday. Forgot to add after you walked out of store - a few more people came out later with Cokes saying "People who bought 2 Cokes were caught leaving the parking lot and they had to return their extra Coke at the backdoor. After they inspected them they sold the Cokes to us!"

Shipping confirmation here as well, although I was never worried as I got my confirmation email, Sat in my order history etc straight away. For those feeling like they missed out, I'll post a pic of my rndm and 2010 Xmas single when it gets delivered in a couple of weeks so you can feel a bit better
I think reason they have it at $0.00 and not taken off web site yet is because a lot of us had 2 or 3 orders go through. So expect a sale once dust settles. hopefully a lot of you have a second chance. I got confirmation without order # first round. Then order go through 2nd round. 2nd order shipped today and 1st order looks like they canceled.

2 CC charges, one on sat, one today. no conf email and blank final screen. also, after i had "purchased" it, i went back to add it to cart again, and it said i couldnt purchase the item because i had purchased it already
why charge my card again if you plan on not sending me anything (which is what i expect thats going to happen)

wow, you would think in 2015 they could handle a ecommerce sale without it turning into a clusterf*ck every time

double check the one for today. it's probably an offset negating the one from saturday and has a negative sign or its a credit

Game over for all who received the confirmation screen and no order number...my email just arrived telling me that I received that in error.
Jokes on us everyone who received the pending charge and the faux confirmation. I love the 10 Club...

Now... What about those that recd a confirmation number/order number at the end of the order.... No email confirmation though.... Nothing in my order history... And a pending charge/preauth on the cc... Still waiting myself to hear back from 10C...

In case anyone really cares what those of us who got the faux confirmation looked like:
Formerly Brew Crew Tix “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world.
I didn't get a shipping notice b/c the 10c wouldn't let me buy what was in my cart.
Same here.
Yep. Me too... Logged in, refreshed for 30-40 min, had in cart, chose shipping address, continue, then white screen of frustration. Then to find out that they dropped more back in the shop an hour later...ridiculous. Oh, well. Congrats to everyone who scored. Still think it was awesome for ten club to do this. But lottery would have been great. 1 week to enter, if you get picked your credit card is charged. Just like tickets. Maybe they will go to that for all the special sales.
Got my money back now, but still no explanation as to why I was able to put a charge through and get nothing and people were able to come in after me and still get their ice cold cokes.

You won't get an explanation because they know it's not right and they know they can't defend it. So to keep silent is their best course while people are rightly upset.

no biggie, really
Is it because i used a gift card to pay, or does my mystery package suck so much they decided to give me a discount to the store haha
