Just a heads up...
 
I just pre-ordered the reissues. I found that Best Buy has the three for the cheapest if you are going to buy them all at the same time. It was $52 and some change (with tax). Everywhere else, with shipping is into the 60 dollar range. You get free ground shipping there too.

It's hard to wait, but hey, I don't get out much, so, this is best for me. LOL

Also, I can listen to Rumours tomorrow ALLL day long online. :D

to order the 3 discs from deepdiscountcd.com but after doing some checking/referencing (ie-Customer reviews on http://www.pricegrabber.com) on ddc online I found that they can be very unreliable when shipping orders...I hope you are able to receive your order Ali.

I order all my cds from them and have never had a problem.

I really lucked out... I pre-ordered mine from CDUniverse, over a month ago, because they had the best deal, and then a few days after I placed my order, they raised the prices!

Thankfully though, they have to honor the price you ordered the items at, so I'm getting all three for $39.87, before shipping. :D

estranged4life 03-23-2004 02:40 AM

Same here...

How much were they when you ordered them from CDUniverse?

'Tusk' was only $13.99 when I ordered, but 'Rumours' was $16.99, for some inexplicable reason.
'Fleetwood Mac' was $9.79.

estranged4life 03-23-2004 02:50 AM

Let's see...
 
the prices I payed:

Rumours $13.99
Fleetwood Mac $9.79
(Tusk was $14.99 through CDUniverse but I bought it through BestBuy)

Depending on what is released on the upcoming live DVD, this will otherwise be my last FM purchase.

Wow, Brian... you did even better than I did! :D

Last Fleetwood Mac purchase?
Ever?

Last purchase? More-than-likely for the forseeable future...

Ever? Can't say...

Johnny Stew 03-23-2004 03:08 AM

Every time I think I have everything, I stumble upon something that I'm missing... so I'm FAR from my last Mac purchase.

I'm gonna be an old man, spending my social security check on Fleetwood Mac CDs, I just know it! :laugh:

Brian, your Icon looks like Robin from Witch Hunter Robin, I am actually watching that right now. I love adult swim.

Johnny Stew 03-23-2004 03:11 AM

:laugh:

I love your new signature avatar, David!

estranged4life 03-23-2004 03:38 AM

That's exactly...

who it is...I just thought the image looked cool, So I made an Icon out of it. (I wanted Amon, But the Icon I made came out to dark)

Witch Hunter Robin is one of my favorite anime serials because it is unlike anything else in the genre, As is "Cowboy Bebop" (Which I bought the complete series on DVD awhile back...Along with the movie.)

Anyways, I usually have good luck finding new releases at the cheapest price (I have access to a couple of sites that have just about anything available on cd/tape/LP/etc and I do comparative shopping) online...And I am patient person, So I can wait a few days after the release date to hear something since I usually save a decent amount of $$$ on my orders.

Thanks Johnny! It took me awhile to make it, ever since I saw the Simpsons' version of Rumours I have been making Simpsons Fleetwood Mac album covers. Tusk, Say You Will, and Mirage. Just making them for fun. Takes awhile to make them.

Yeah Brian I thought that was Robin, great show, like you said there is nothing like it in the genre. Cowboy Bebop is excellent, it is the next anime series that I want to buy. I bought the Trigun series first because it is my favorite. I buy them on Ebay when I have the money. Which is hardly ever.

People, people, people!

Don't you know that the best site to buy and pre-order music is http://www.deepdiscountcd.com ??? :laugh:

It's always free shipping on no matter what you buy or pre-order and I got all three for around $40.

Check it out! :wavey:

estranged4life 03-23-2004 12:31 PM

Well...
 
As I stated earlier they have a history of problems with shipping orders (Especially with back orders...Which they are notorious for moreso than with shipping new releases.), I guess I should have been more clear in my post.

They are cheap though, I will give 'em that much...

Well, I didn't order the cds because I wanted them in my hot little hand on the day of issue...so here I am, two hours, four stores, and $59.77 poorer, and I finally have them in hand.

First stop: Best Buy. Not on the shelf, so I ask for help. They check the computer. Yeah, they have them. So they go check "in the back." I wait and wait and wait. And finally, the guy comes back: they can't find them!!

Next stop: Target. (Had to go there anyway) No luck.

Next stop: Circuit City. Found one copy of the white album and one copy of Rumours. One of each! No Tusk. So I go to the checkout to buy the two and ask about Tusk. Computer shows 0 copies in stock. Go out to my car and insert the cd right into my arm.

Next stop: Wal-Mart. Found all three. Didn't look at prices on the two I had already opened. Bought Tusk.

Grand total: $59.77 plus gas and time.

estranged4life 03-23-2004 12:37 PM

I noticed that...
 
most stores are not receiving copies of Tusk and/or the Rumours remasters for some odd reason, Could it be because they had a hard time selling the VBOFM & SYW?? (There are ton of these shelve warmers still available) Makes ya wonder...

I've never pre-ordered from them before, so I hope they're okay. :(

estranged4life 03-23-2004 12:58 PM

I was tempted...
 
to pre-order from 'em, but after doing some research on the reliability (A great place to do some price-checking & background research is http://www.pricegrabber.com) I saw that deepdiscountcd had more complaints than most of the other music retail websites I deal with on a regular basis...Especially when dealing with back orders & communication/customer service.

Just be patient, they may be reliable with pre-orders of new items.

You have me worried. :laugh: I ordered the CDs over two weeks ago and they still ahven't shipped, even though they said that they would ship last week.

Oh well, if that place is any good, I'll let you know. :D

Best Buy told me they shipped a week before the 23rd. They lied. They didn't ship until the 23rd.
Total cost? Tusk was $13.99 (free shipping) from Best Buy.
Rumours and White were $32.97 with shipping, from CD Universe, sooooo,
$46.96 total for all three.
