BEST POST I READ ABOUT MYSTERY VINYL..HAHAHAHAHAHAHA./..EPIC!!!
"A tale of woe from this weekend.
Early Saturday morning I went down to the local convenience store because they were having a sale on Coke. I haven’t bought a Coke in a while so I figured I would show up and get one. Other cola is good, but real Coke is special.
Well it was a really good sale and there was only one left by the time I got there. So I picked it up and went to the cashier. I didn’t have any cash so I got out my credit card. When I handed it to the cashier, he asked to see my ID. So I got out my ID and handed it over. He looked at it and then handed it back. But when I tried to hand him my credit card, he stopped me and told me he had memory problems and could not remember who I was. So he asked for my ID again. Confused, I gave him my ID a second time. He looked it over and handed it back. I tried to give him my credit card again. He apologized, said something about OCD, and then asked for my ID again, just to be on the safe side. This went on for about 15 minutes.
Once I finally convinced him that I was who I said I was, he accepted my credit card. But he had trouble swiping it. He tried to swipe it again and again, but the machine wouldn’t read it. So he tried to manually enter the numbers. But before doing that, he once again needed to be reminded who I was, so he asked for my ID again. After 15 minutes or so, he was finally able to successfully enter my credit card number into the register. However, just before he could punch the button to complete the sale, the register apparently blinked off and then back on again, as if it had momentarily lost power. My credit card info was somehow cleared and was no longer on the screen. So the cashier had to re-enter it, after again checking my ID of course, because he wanted to be extra sure I was who I said I was. At this point, my patience was coming to an end and the people in line behind me were getting frustrated.
I set the Coke down on the counter and asked if I could help. The cashier asked me to come look at the screen and see for myself. So I walked around the counter and looked and sure enough, the machine was acting erratically. Every time he entered my credit card number, the screen would blank out and he would have to start over. Now the worst part. The guy behind me was disappointed that they were out of Coke so he got a Pepsi instead. But when I walked around the counter, he saw my Coke sitting there. He must have thought I had abandoned it. Before I could react, he picked up my Coke. Not one second later a second cashier came back from break, opened their register and called for the next person in line. The guy with my Coke took five steps to the right, whipped out his card, gave it to the cashier, paid and walked off with the last Coke while I stood there with my jaw open, examining my cashier’s blank screen. I gathered myself and quietly told the cashier that I would go ahead and take a Pepsi. He asked for my ID."""...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".

here is your answer those of you who got charged, but had no confirmation number, no oorder history, but a blank success confirmation :
Unfortunately your order did not go through.
The amount in question is an authorization and will disappear after a few days.
Thanks

Thankstinz. said:Go
good luck man fingers crossed for yaKearn5y said:
To be honest I don't mind. Shit happens. Had 2 orders go through. 1 with and 1 without email confirmation. This was the 1 with. Other one probably will be cancelled or may not have been.tinz. said:
That sucks I'm sorry to hear that :( a lot of angry people here over all of this. Honestly I didn't mind the challenge it was frustrating but whatever I'm not entitled to anything and if I get a cancel it won't be the end of the world. If I get one awesome, hope we can all just calm down its not the end of the world. Good luck again as I've said before!Kearn5y said:I got a order cancel email just now

This reminds me of the PJ20 ticket fiasco so bad.www.cluthelee.com0

Just got confirmation that it's being sent to warehouse for shipping I got no email confirmation though and it only showed up in my order history yesterday... What a strange experience. I tried for over an hour to purchase it It took several goes to accept my billing address, shipping address and credit card number. Finally at the end the screen just went blank so I presumed I lost out.
I think a lottery would be a better way.0 -
I see it as I got the 2nd best result of getting shut out: Nothing.
I would rather nothing than get a Brad and a single I already own (own and like Brad too).
Optimally, I would have scored, got Avocado, LD, Yield, etc... but likely not.
The site gets really annoying though for these sales. This would have probably been better served via lottery since it is basically a lottery anyways. Those glitches on the site are maddening. I spent 40 minutes dealing with them, it was sold out, and later I found out if I spent only another 40 minutes of a beautiful Saturday Spring morning in front of a computer and not outside, I would have been able to buy one.
no biggie, really0 -
Does anybody else have a "1 Coupon - Discount Code shipped" included in their mystery vinyl shipping e-mail?
Is it because i used a gift card to pay, or does my mystery package suck so much they decided to give me a discount to the store haha0 -
Still waiting for that email. And there is still the mystery with the confirmation number at the final screen and then nothing but a pending charge...Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue! http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/148993/please-pearl-jam-consider-a-vinyl-benaroya-hall-re-issue0

F@cking Hilarious and on point about Saturday. Forgot to add after you walked out of store - a few more people came out later with Cokes saying "People who bought 2 Cokes were caught leaving the parking lot and they had to return their extra Coke at the backdoor. After they inspected them they sold the Cokes to us!"Horse2345 said:
