    Did I miss the sale? Got up, made some nice coffee, and decided to listen to some Iron & Wine and enjoy the morning a bit. Oops.

    You did the right thing, friend. Also, yay for Iron & Wine! I love Ghost on Ghost. And Shepherd's Dog. I might love more if I took the time to listen.

    I was on right when this thing went live and I wasn't able to get anything. xD

    The mystery is me and what I'm doing here. More money for the ball game, I guess. Go Mariners!

    Nice. Felix is pitching. Hopefully they will break their slump.

    I had the issue of getting no confirmation email, no order #, and nothing in my order history. I went back in to try to repurchase just now, and it said "THIS PRODUCT CANNOT BE PURCHASED BECAUSE YOU HAVE PURCHASED AN ASSOCIATED PRODUCT IN THE PAST." I'm assuming that means my last order went through. If not, I think I have a right to be very upset.

    I had the same message but I've since received a confirmation email so I think you should be good. As someone stated before though the site won't let you order two, so until you get a confirmation maybe....

    I thought Vanilla forums was supposed to be able to handle all the traffic

    HAHAHAHAHH..BEST POST AT 2015!!!! :)
    Hey it's true, the forum itself was fine through all of it. :)
    They said it was supposed to handle ticket buying traffic if I remember correctly.

    I had decided I was never going to delete it from my cart, just as a constant reminder of what I went through today. And like an idiot, I kept using the back button every once in awhile and trying to get it added to my cart. AND HOLY COW IT JUST WENT THROUGH! Unbelievable.
    To stay this excited about it, maybe I shouldn't open it when (or should I say if? Sad to say, I'll believe it when it's sitting on my front porch) it gets here. It's like Schrodinger's cat. Unopened, it both is and is not a benny :>)

    Got through on the first run but absolutely no confirmation (nothing on my french credit card, no email, nothing in order history), but when I tried to score on the second run it said I couldn't buy it because I made the same purchase in the past, so I'm hopeful I really got one!

    I had same issue. first run got confirmation screen without order number and no email and no order history. second run was able to purchase. checked CC account and charge went through for both....hope they don't cancel both

    Same. Had to try it twice just a few minutes ago and it went through. Shocked. Please I hope it's not something too crappy.

    Beauty!

    Good luck and hey... great perseverance!
    Thanks mate. not sure quite why i am still here either - but the confirmation email has arrived so hopefully it is a lock and the perseverance pays off.

    got one 20-30 mins in. Other than on screen, no email or order history. Yet people getting them now are getting email confirmations immediately. Dont know what is going on

    And I thought I was having problems because I'm at the airport in Punta Cana using some flaky network!!
    Got all the way to waiting for the final order confirmation to get processed and I got kicked out.

    Now to wait and see how many of us get cancellation notices! :worried:

    I wonder if this is happening to me .This is what i got:

    Order Number: 4417197 (pending)
    Order Date: Saturday 18 April, 2015
    Ship to: Order Cost: $60.99

    (pending?) is what i'm concerned about.

    Just a thought, maybe the unspecific total vinyl counts (ie, Backspacer black 80-100) were a way of covering their asses in case of server/order problems (which, let's face it, were to be expected). In other words, sell 80 at first, but have a backstock to make up for problematic orders, etc. Very smart if that is the reason for listing counts that way.

    Why all the complaining. That went exactly as expected.

    Having never done one of these before, this was not at all what I expected. v_v

    I expected to refresh the page at the exact time the item went on sale, add to cart, checkout, and be back in bed in like, ten minutes, tops. Naive, eh? Oh well.

    Next time I'll know better but it probably won't stop me from trying.

    Issues like everyone else. Multiple log ins. White screen of death. In my cart but sold out. After 1hour20min of refreshing one finally came up. Guess they are purging the multiples. Checkout was a breeze and got my confirmation.
    Made my dAy. Now time to hit up the record store and see what they have left
    Good luck
