    My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12

    haha over sold.... not good!

    [Edit]
    Just got this email from Aural Exploits....

    "Dear Customer,

    Due to a system failure on our end during the sale of this Limited Edition album release, we regret to inform you that we had to check our records on who actually purchased this item on a first come first served basis.

    Our records show that your time of purchase was 0:00:00.015 seconds behind the person last securing an album and thus you will unfortunately have to miss out.

    We regret to inform you that you will not be receiving the album and we will refund your money in full to your credit or debit card"


    That's pretty douchey they told you that you missed it by .15 of a second. They should have just said they sold out. They took time to actually tell you that you missed it by that much time. That's like rubbing it in your face. That's lame.
    I shit and I stink. I'm real, join the club.

    A friend, he called, I didn't mention a thing. The last thing he said was, "Be sound". Sound. I contemplated an awful thing, I hate to admit. I just thought those would be such appropriate last words. But I'm still here.

    just for the record before i make a statement on this and people comment>>>>

    i did not want this vinyl and did not order it...



    ok on to my point...this is poor business practices, plain and simple...there is no way you can justify "overselling" a product...you have to know what you have on hand before you announce selling something, to me thats just common sense..especially if your supposively a small business

    hope it all works out for whoever ordered from these guys, but do remember it will be sold it stores, well minus the "little bonus 7" that comes with it, but oh well

    all the versions of this LP are the same... 10C, auralexploits and store copies comes with the booklet and the 7" ... so if anyone had bad luck with auralexploits I would start calling record stores to see if they can reserve you one :)

    good luck with finding it in stores..
    I emailed a UK online store specialised in Vinyls, including imports..their response:
    We're having problems with that one ourselves, the Vinyl Films releases seem to be crazily limited. The best that I can suggest is that you keep an eye on our website in case we manage to get hold of any.

    But there are few people that have been able to get one at record stores here in the US so they are out there is just that they have to look real hard before they are all gone.

    that is the same boat I am in. Got the initial 2 emails and when I track my order it says not sent. I am looking a t it as a good sign. For now...

    My pending charge just fell off my account and didn't post, guess that means I didn't get one. That sucks.

    What a joke this place is. 3 days later and i still have a pending payment on Paypal? They told the person who was .00015 seconds are something too late yet they still have all these payments on hold. Its kind of a problem when payments are on hold, i could be spending that money somewhere else!

    I had a confirmation e-mail saying mine has been shipped (ordered Monday) - arrived this morning at 1.00am UK time (the e-mail!)

    If your payment is pending on paypal, you still have the option of cancelling the transaction if you really want to spend your money somewhere else! They will take the money when they ship.

    i am starting to get annoyed. I ordered Monday, got thru, got the 2 confirmation emails and that is it. Charge still pending on my card, when I track the order on the auralexploits and it says not sent. But it seems that everyone else is finding out one way or another. i just need to know.
