Stop Us... Japan First Edition CD delayed

Postby my3dtvtan » 2nd Jul 08, 13:57

Just got an email from HMV Japan that the Limited First edition I ordered is "regrettably delayed due to items not received from the manufacturer"

Has everyone else who ordered it got this message or what?

The actual site says they are sold out but seen as I pre ordered over a month ago I hope I still have a copy reserved and the Cd's just delyed.

Saying that, Ive gotten the exact same message before when I pre orderd a Limited Edition from HMV and just got told they had sold out! Whats the bloody point of pre ordering then?

I know the T-Shirt wont fit and I already have the download but I was quite lookin forward to gettin one of these from a collectors stand point. If they just say theve sold out I will be pissed. :evil:

Yeah got the same message.

I ordered my copy the best part of 2 months ago, so am really hoping
its as it says and its just a supply problem.

My lady friend in Tokyo got hers delivered today/yesterday. Not sure who she ordered it though, but it certainly doesnt seem as though the product as a whole is delayed.
Did you lie to us, Tony?

Heres hoping for some supersonic shipment to the UK.

Fair play that looks really nice. I get paid friday so may have to buy one of those , how much is it from hmv,japan compared to those on ebay?

Pity about the size of the t-shirt though , that aint gonna fit me any time soon haha.

Ha! Guess what arrived on my doorstep this fair morn? :D

I was shocked it came so qiuck as reading the customs papers, it was sat in Japan two days ago!

Still havnt had any email from hmv.jp saying its been dispatched so just presumed Id be waiting a fair few weeks.

Looks really nice to, some obvious effort has gone in to making this feel like a real Limited Edition rather than just saying that it is to sell CD's (as most bands do now)

Im well chuffed anyhoose :D

Got mine too!
I was also in shock that it arrived so quickly

There is no 'other disc', just the t-shirt (not sure it's really japanese large / EU medium - it still seems rather big!) and CD


It's cool :D
