    Yes--two totally different things. I'd also be curious to know if anyone who ordered YESTERDAY received a SHIPPING confirmation.

    i would guess its going to take a few days for any of us to get a shipping notice.......

    Not really as they said 'This item will ship to arrive around the release date of January 29th'

    I stand corrected!

    I ordered last week and have not received a shipping notice..I'm starting to get worried..

    My understanding is that they're the 'official' distributor for the label releasing the LP, so it's unlikely they'll be able to get more stock.

    and for everyone that moans about the problem on TODAY's sale... they actually got out of their ways to cancel the scalpers sales of last week..

    so think of it that way: even if you don't get one on today's sale, the people who did are most likely real fans rather than the flippers that 'bought' them last week.. and you wouldn't have had even the chance to try for 1 today if they hadn't cancelled those orders then re-sold them anyway..

    wait, were all of the Jan. 15 orders cancelled or just certain ones?

    Pretty sure if you only ordered 1 you are all good. If you ordered 2 , you order was changed to 1.

  • I refreshed the page right after it turned 12p yesterday, and got right in. It did take a while to process my cc, but i recieved two confirmation emails:
    One from Karen as a confirmation receipt, and the other from Aural as a confirmation email for order ref. #. I have yet to recieve any other shipping confirmation, and my cc is still in "temp" status.

    He's probably not a big fan, so I'd say it was a really clever move (:

    AS mentioned on another thread... if you ordered and seemed to get it yesterday you still might not get it. They oversold 70 copies and the people who will get the records will be picked at random.

    Copied from another thread.
    "Yes, my wife called the store because I was working and they said they where at -70 and weren't taking any more orders. My order had gone thru, so my wife asked if that meant we had one. They said it was random and the store would refund the remaining orders. So as of right now I assume I'm not getting one. I guess I can pray I get chosen at random, but not much luck of that happening."

    I contacted them and they told me they were going in order requests were received, nothing mentioned about being random.

    "Hi,

    We can only go based on the order in which we received the orders.

    Thanks

    This is what I got from them :(
    'All orders are being restricted to no more than one copy and are being filled based on when the order was received, in the event that we do not have sufficient stock the newest orders will be cancelled. We are doing our utmost to make sure all orders are filled, but this is taking some time as we have to check for duplicate orders etc... (which will be cancelled) & for orders with more than one copy on them (which will be reduced to one copy).'

    1 per order/person is a good idea. order it from somewhere else in a few weeks if need an extra copy.

    Bummer, though I thought you got one from the 10C.. missed out on that one too, then!

    My payment is still 'pending'. I know they don't take payment until they ship but still... Well, at least no e-mail saying payment failed yet.
  • i haven't heard either way yet. i'll let you guys know when i do.
    the ice on my teeth makes the crystal cold
  • $61 on EBay already.
  • checked my order status on their site and it appears that i never ordered. others might wanna try this to see where they stand.

    check your emails,PAYMENT FAILED is what i got.

    it would be impossible to make enough of those towels
  • I got an email that mine was shipped yesterday.

    Thankfully, looks like I was luckier than some, I would have been really pissed if I had not got it.
    OH: You need to stop buying Pearl Jam stuff, we have no room
    Me: How about we just get a bigger house?

    Not to be a jerk, but they need to get in touch with other record stores or the distributor and fix this by securing enough copies to match what they just sold in 5 minutes.

    It's 100% unacceptable to run a business like this, no matter how friendly or small the business is. Maybe its the businessman in me, but that's how I would fix it.

    Depending what kind of shopping cart they use on the website, it could cause an over sell situation. Their site "could have" been overwhelmed by untypical sales at once and their inventory counts were not keeping up.

  • Did you order yours on monday the 21?
  • I got an email from steve at @auralexploits and it said that they are gonna try and capture the failed payments later today,so good luck everyone!

    cant say i blame ya tho... no one here would even know that they ran out if the OP hadnt posted something about them overselling which he/she only knew from asking... i mean dont say "payment failed" if the actually situation was that you over sold... and if their intent was to fix the failed payments later on they shouldve made that clear in the email they sent out too... i understand its a bad situation for this company to be in but it doesnt seem like they dealt with it that well... hope everyone gets one that ordered one!
