Scored the /200 on the In Reverie drop, got damn. Gonna go buy a lotto ticket now.

 

Well shit, I totally forgot about In Reverie today. Oh well, got my page up and ready for Ocean Avenue at 1.

 

Went to Bullmoose for the sole reason of picking up the new Architects. Ended up leaving with that, Kate Bush's Hounds of Love, and the new Tigers Jaw

 

Damn, was on right at 1pm for Ocean Avenue and while it was processing my order it refreshed saying it was out of stock.

 

It looks like Yellowcard is already out of stock and I have no clue if my order went through. It’s just loading

 

So it crashed in the middle of of me checking out, and now I have a pending charge on my account. Chances i’ll actually get it? Haha

 

God, that Field Day website fucking sucks. Immediately was overloaded. No idea if my order went through either, but I'm thinking no.

 

Got all the way to PayPal and clicked pay, next page says error. Literally had everything in by 1:00.30. Site crash probably fucked me.

 

Here comes the “we’re sorry we completely fucked up this sale, we’ll make a second pressing now to make up for it. Ships in 2032.”

 

My PayPal had an error so I rapid fire replaced the order and typed my card info, and now it’s currently loading lmao. I have a pending PayPal charge so maybe it went through

 

They were not equipped to handle this at all!

 

Same thing happened with Zombie EP repress. How do these places not prepare for the traffic? Also, why doesn't Universal press a bunch of these and make a ton of money. Obviously there is a market. I don't get the exclusivity of this.

 

Got a pending charge on my credit card, so...who knows.

 

I think the big labels just completely fail to understand the demand there is for some of these 2000s records.

 

What was that scam vinyl company who pressed a bunch of blink stuff like a decade ago and he stole all the money? Those were the days.

 

I have a pending charge through PayPal so again, who knows. I have hope, that despite the error message, it went through.

 

Okay, I think we’re good. I got an order confirmation in my email.

 

Mightier Than Sword

 

Hold up, I just checked my account and I also have a pending charge for this. Even though I got a message saying out of stock after my order was processing.

I'm so confused!

 

I hit complete order and then got an error but got charged, then received an email confirmation 10 minutes later.

 

Did you get something from Field Day? All I have is my receipt from PayPal, nothing from Field Day.

 

I was able to get through PayPal but when I was directed back to their site it just loads and nothing happens. I don’t feel too good about this one

Edit: I ended up getting a PayPal notification

 

funny/sad story:

i bought a record player for my girlfriend on black friday to gift her last christmas, and she broke up with me before i got it. i decided to gift her 'the eraser' vinyl from thom yorke so she could start her collection herself. after some deliberation, i decided to keep the damn player. i don't plan for my collection to be huge, since most of the albums i do want are seriously out of my price range. what i own currently:

Metallica: Ride the Lightning - Walmart edition blue vinyl
Metallica: ...And Justice for All - Walmart edition green vinyls
Metallica: Hardwired... to Self Destruct - Walmart edition orange vinyls
Metallica: S&M 2 Deluxe box set - Metallica.com 2 color/splatter vinyls
Thrice: Vheissu - Hot Topic Peach vinyls
Thrice: Palms - Red vinyl
Thrice: Palms: Deeper Wells EP
Thrice: Sea Chance 7 in.
Jimmy Eat world: Always Be 7 in.
