Any one catch this over at "The Sky I Scrape" site:

I've had great customer service when I've contacted 10C in the past. I recently moved out of state, and I had already ordered Backspacer. I e-mailed them politely to ask if they could change my shipping address. They updated my vinyl shipping but said the Backspacer CDs have already been packaged and ready to ship (!!!), but the guy dug through them and found mine and changed the address. That's great service right there.

    Yeah but it doesn't mean that they will necessarily be sending it out anytime soon.

    I doubt it ships before the 15th or 16th....which means Canada will be lucky to get it in September.

    A smidge off topic, but I found myself wondering... and I'm sure it's been covered somewhere before but I don't feel like wading through threads when I search for "ship" or "mail" or "sunday"...

    Does the 10c preorder get to my hot little hands Saturday the 19th or Monday the 21st?

    It depends on where you are, among other things. But I would say there is a very good chance that if you're in the US, you'll have it before the 21st.

    By the profile, the "hot little hands" are located in King of Prussia, PA...just outside Philly.

    That's what I figured, but I'm hoping it's true. I'd hate to have to go buy the Target version first. :)

    You know your PA geography.

    What's a bearcat, anyway? I remember rooting for the Nova Scotia Horsedogs in middle skewl during March Madness b/c I didn't understand what a Bearcat was.

    Yeah, I'd think there's a very good chance people around Philly get this one a few days early.

    I'd say that's embarrassing but what do I know, I went to Sonoma State, at the time we were the Cassocks.

    I'm sorry. Your mascot isn't embarrassing. He's a cute little furry fella with whiskers.

    Think about it...it is going to get released in Aussie land 2 days before North America? I don't think so. PJ went through the headaches that the Ten Re-Issue brought with it (shipping etc)...they are doing it on their own this time...my guess it we could have it as early as a week prior to the official release.

    Hey I'm in Breinigsville!! I'm new to the Lehigh Valley:) I too got the fixer single a couple days before the official date. Would be great if it came on the 18th or 19th. Crosses fingers..

    If your statement is accurate, I´m glad I sent it to my sister in LA. I´ll be leaving LA oct 5 and would be very dissapointed if I was to fly back home to guatemala w/o my backspacer cd.

    I'm guessing most of us in North America will have it by Thursday or Friday (9/17 or 9/18).

    Glad you're pleased with their service! I've paid approximately $15 more for the cd through the Ten Club than I would have if I'd just bought it off the shelf on the 18th. You'd think that they'd ship it at least a week ahead of the release date knowing how much extra we Australians (and nationalities other than those in the US) had to pay. We should get it earlier rather than later.

    were you not aware of how much you were paying for it through the 10c before you clicked the "buy" button?

    Did the 10c tell you that you were getting the album BEFORE the release date? Of course they didnt.


    You had to pay? No, you really didnt. What you really had was a choice. And you made it. Now, you realize that it might not be the best choice for you. Sorry to hear that.
