I forgot to pre-order. Just ordered right now and its on sale at Amazon for $7.99
man, I got ripped paying all that shipping and exchange.
I’ve learned not to preorder from 10c unless it’s 10 CL exclusive and limited. Even then you’re taking a chance. But I did mean to order off Amazon before and just forgot.
Agreed… but some of the items have been described as limited only to appear elsewhere. It’s not always clear if item is limited to the ten club only or the ten club has a limited supply.
this is just it. I'm not "in the know" enough about how these things work to be confident enough to wait and see and then miss out and have to pay top dollar for two songs on 7" of wax.
Yes. It would be nice if the listings were less ambiguous. Especially because some stuff requires a nearly instant decision to avoid it being sold out.

There's always exceptions, and you take a chance either way. But most of the time, a pre-order will not sell out quickly. If its a rare item that I have to have, I wouldn't take the chance and I'd just buy it. If they reissue RVM or Lost Dogs, sure I'll grab it here so I don't take the chance of missing out so I can save $10 on shipping. But a 7" that is available for pre-order that would cost me $20 after shipping? I'll gamble, and this time wind up getting it for less than half that on Amazon.

I just never know if it's going to be a Matter of Time pre order or a baseball bat preorder.

Yeah, a lot of it doesn't make sense and is just guess work. If I would be that pissed without it, I'd just buy it. But I wouldn't be that pissed about not spending $20 on a 45, so worth the gamble. I also don't understand the craze for the bats. $100 + shipping seemed like a lot to me, I didn't think they'd sell out that fast. Its just a bat with Pearl Jam stamped on it, right? I mean, if Eddie made it to the minors and this was the same model he used, maybe I can see that. But some of the merch I just don't understand.

seems odd to me too, unless ed really wanted a bat with the pj name on it. lol

Most items the last few months have been preorders. Seems the new normal. Vinyl, bats, clothing, hats… have all been preorders. And a lot of it has sold out.

I've only noticed the bats being a preorder and selling out that fast. But I havent paid much attention to clothing and hats lately. Which seems to defeat the purpose of a preorder. Isnt that to see how much interest there is so you know how much to order? I am starting to think they label everything preorder just to confuse us.

Yes! Confusing is a good word 👍🏻

That is the challenge. 10c rarely mentions if they plan on releasing something retail or not, so we're left guessing. Not too many 7"'s make it to retail, so I ordered it assuming it was 10c only. Ahh well, can't win them all.
It would be nice though if 10c would say "Available in our ship and at your local record store" etc.. so we'd know we could save on shipping, and create less garbage (more environmentally friendly).

I agree, But most places that do preorders don’t charge until the item ships.

no clue why I ordered two of these, but they both arrived in separate packages today in Winnipeg. i was all excited thinking they were the fan club singles. But this is good too.
I ordered two too from 10club. See you received them now, another week & so till they arrive in Atlantic Canada.

Still waiting on this to arrive. I bought from 10c because they put an end date on the preorder and stated that they couldnt guarantee the availabity after. Sounded very much like a made to order deal. They really didnt make it clear that it was getting a wider release. They didnt use the word exclusive but we all know about the Ten exclusive they sold. I dont know if its a deliberate marketing strategy to not be clear when they sell things. I end up buying so as not to risk having to get on the secondary market.
Even then I remember when Amazon let me order Sevens and it was exclusive to 10c.

I think this is it.
I got mine in Winnipeg the other day, so if they've arrived in Canada, I'd assume anywhere else is going to be very soon as well

mace1229 But some of the merch I just don't understand.
This. I have my share of t-shirts and posters but I don't get the baseball bats, the viewmasters, the commemorative setlist shirts for streaming shows, the baseball cards, and probably 20 other things I can't remember. What do you guys do with this stuff? Where do you draw the line? Is there an item they could they stamp a PJ logo on that wouldn't sell?

I think it’s all subjective. You buy what appeals to you and others buy what appeals to them. Beyond the music, it’s all just stuff.

Its all about cost for me. I wouldn't spend $100 on a bat. If it was $30, I probably would, and I would use it with my kids. I'd even buy that whoopie cushion if it was under $5. I bought the Patagonia backpack 10 years ago, because I liked the bag, I use it, its a good pack. I don't get why anyone would pay $500 in the aftermarket for it though, it was worth the $70 I paid, but not much more in my opinion. If i hadn't used it a bunch, I'd try to sell it.
