I just got mine from Wal-Mart. They had one copy of each, and I briefly contemplating buying them all, but it would've cost me about $60. So, I just got Tusk, since that's my favorite.

The other thread on the reissues said that Best Buy only ordered three of each . . . but there were a lot (at least 8 or so) copies of Rumours at the Best Buy I went to. All three cost about $48 (which includes 6% tax here in PA).

Well the idiot at the Best Buy here said " Well we have it as coming out today in the computer, but it says Quantity : 0 ,so they mustve pushed the release date back."

So i asked "Well then why does best buy sell them on their website, and why are people getting it at other best buys if it isnt out yet?" lol...what an idiot..

somewhere that some stores (ie-BestBuy) were only receiving 3 copies of each of the remasters (9 cd total), Which is a surpringly low number...

I wonder what gives, Are they assuming the reissues will not be a great sell???

Well, the idiot at my Best Buy said "I guess you like Fleetwood Mac" (gee, how did you guess). And then he said, "Are these all the same record?"

Uh, DUH!!!!

Fortunately I found all three reissues at one place. They only had one of each on display.

I found all three at Borders. Looked like they were leaving the shelves pretty quickly though.

My copies shipped today, EXCEPT for Tusk. :rolleyes:

I'm seriously wondering if they produced more copies of the WA and Rumours and short-changed Tusk.

BB here had Rumours and WA but not Tusk. Had to go to FYE at the mall next door. :(

So I decided to go to Tower Records last night to go buy the Maroon 5 album, decided to walk by the "F"s and guess what I found? I found the "Tusk" reissue...they had about 20 copies laying out there. BUT, I guess they made a mistake b/c I walked back down the isle about 2 min later and they were all gone. Either someone bought 20 copies or they relized that they weren't supposed to be out until today.

So off I go to buy "Rumours".

The first Best Buy I went to had none of them. That was the one where I hunted down the manager of the media dept. and asked what gives and why aren't the reissues here because their website said they would be. He then looked it up on his computer and told me three of each had been ordered for each store (in the DC area I guess-I didn't ask about that). I was going somewhere else today so asked the guy if I could pay for and reserve the cd's now and come get them when they arrived. He said I couldn't do that. That's when I told him the company must have no idea how many Fleetwood Mac fans were out there waiting for these reissues and that he wouldn't have the three cd's of each for even 24 hours! He looked like he thought I was a little nuts but it turns out I was right-when I did find Tusk (only) at another Best Buy in Woodbridge, I got the last one..so glad I lucked out..

The attendent at my local store asked if 'Rumours Tusk' was the name of the one cd. :laugh:

I got all three of my reissues at Borders. They had tons of copies of each reissue.

Rumours and Tusk were $19 each, and the White Album was $11.

I found the White Album & Rumours at Best Buy but NO Tusk! I went to Circuit City and they didn't have ANY of the reissues. So I came home and brought it off of BestBuy.Com.

I work for one of the many Best Buy stores in Orlando and I KNEW we were going to run out. We had 5 copies of Rumours, 4 copies of Fleetwood Mac and 2 copies of Tusk. I bought one of each before the store even opened. Needless to say there were 3 or 4 people upset that day. I told them to order at least 5 more of each but they didnt listen. Too bad!

I got all three of mine at Circuit City on the morning of the 23rd before I went into work. They hadn't even put them on the shelf, they were on a trolley waiting to be put up. I saw two copies of Rumours, one copy of the White album and no Tusk! Of course, that was the one I wanted most. The trolley had a second lower compartment and thanks to the person who misfiled Tusk with the artists who begins with T as I found the only copy of that. So I bought all three for fear they would be very limited release. I left there and only one copy of Rumours was left in the building.

Best Buy must've messed up with presales, because I bought Tusk for 13.99, and now I believe it's the same price as Rumours.
They also emailed me they shipped it last week, yet the tracking # shows it just shipped yesterday.:(

Yeah, I think that Best Buy Tusk pre-order price was a mistake on their website. I think it was priced as if it was the old CD, not the new 2 CD remastered version. It doesn't matter to me anyway since I got it for the cheaper price. :) Their e-mail said that it was shipped on Friday and I just got all of them in the mail an hour ago.

Now what about the album sales/chart positions then? Do these reissues count as new albums? Or are they regarded as the originals i.e. the sales numbers for f.e. Rumours reissue counts/is added to the 19millions they sold in the US up to today?
And if there is a huge interest and stores running out of CD`s, then all of these albums appear on the album charts next week again?

Sadly, my problem isn't a lack of 'Tusk'... it's too many copies!

I ordered the three from CDUniverse, and I received my shipment today, only to find that they omitted my copy of 'Rumours,' and added a second copy of 'Tusk' in its place.
D'Oh!!!

But I called CDUniverse, and it seems we've gotten it all straightened out... so I should have my copy of 'Rumours' around this time next week.

I'm disappointed, but at least the other two arrived! :)

Yeah, I got my Rumours CD (I already had the White Album and Tusk) at Borders in Providence Place Mall today. :) They had all 3 of them on the end caps when you walk in to the music section.:)

I went to walmart because that is the only store close enough and I couldn't wait till the weekend, and there was only one reissue there, Tusk thankfully, but it was 22 bucks! Of course I couldn't wait and bought the damn expensive thing, but it was worth it.

For anyone in Philly, I went to Tower Records at Broad and Chestnut today and they have all the reissues, about 10-12 each of Rumours and FM, and a handful of Tusk...$24.99 each for Rumours and Tusk, $14.99 for FM.

I got Rumours...will go back another day for Tusk and/or FM....

but Tusk was the first to arrive in my mail (Like the reissue disc 1, disappointed with disc 2)...

I wonder what the deal is with these missing Tusk discs? Are they sitting in some government warehouse in a box labled <b>WMD</b> collecting dust??? :laugh:

I got the Tusk reissue and the Rumours one out from the library because I was sick of waiting for them to arrive. Finally, I got a package in the mail today. What do I find when I open it up? The old White Album CD. :laugh: :rolleyes: :mad:

I gave customer service an earful just a few minutes ago. I warn everyone not to shop at deepdiscountcd.com, they suck ass. And not only was I shipped that one crummy CD, they had the gall to actually charge me for it on top of the bill for the reissues. Whatever. :rolleyes:

I just got an email from Deep Discount CD and they apologized for the mistake...then proceeded to tell me that the remasters won't be released until March of 2005 and thy had no idea how I ordered them. :laugh:

Our Best Buy only had Fleetwood Mac and Rumours. I asked the woman at the check-out, and she checked with a manager who said that they got the shipments for the other two, but Tusk didn't come in yet. WTF!!! The woman told me that they were flying off the shelves though....she said people were leaving with them left and right. As it was, I got the last copy of Fleetwood Mac that they had. And there were only 2 copies of Rumours left.
So I then went to Circuit City, who had all three of them. They only had 1 copy of Tusk left, and I got it! They had a couple copies of the other two though.

does it seems that retailers believed that reissued "Tusk" discs would not sell? (Ya know, That over-stated "Tusk wasn't a success that Rumours was" BS)

I have only seen 2 (!!!) copies of it since it was released (A copy at Wal-#$%^&*-Mart and the copy I received from BestBuy.com) and I am surprised I have not seen more copies on store shelves...
