So I called MusicToday at 877 687 4277.

The rep said that they are "awaiting a bigger shipment" from the manufacturer b/c "demand was higher than they expected"...she said she read that off of her computer screen.

She also said that no CD's have been shipped or will be shipped until the "bigger shipment" arrives, which will be in 1-4 weeks, and when our cards our charged we can expect that the CD was shipped that same day.

I understand the fact that there are more orders than actual copies of the CD, as has been explained previously. What I find odd is that even the people who ordered within the first few HOURS of availability are awaiting another shipment from the Park.

Sigh. I really should learn to stop getting my hopes up. One of these days!!! I'm not complaining, by the way, so please don't go off on me. I'm just reporting what I found out.

It seems that the June 19 date was somewhat arbitrary, I guess? I don't know. Oh well. If anyone else hears anything, please post on here so we are all informed - thanks!

Prince, what you need is a manager.
The way you handle your business sucks big time.
However, the currently released music is much more exciting compared to most stuff he did in the 90ies, and that´s what counts to me...

PP2 : "please c the updated sticky note at the top of this 4um regarding shipping. Musictoday is doing the best they can 2 move along quickly. Due 2 logistical issues at their warehouse, the 27th is the shipping start date now."

let's hope...

Yes, you should. just enjoy what you have right now, and if something is out of your control, don't let it bother you too much, because letting it get you down won't do no good.

Peace

I agree with Heavenly - unfortunately the evil little fucker that sits on my left shoulder is yelling "why am I the only bastard that makes good on his word!!!" Doing the right thing isn't something we should be grateful for. Don't make promises you can't keep. There's nothing wrong with speaking out when you don't get what you paid for.

(Just letting off some steam, it's not directed at you!)

I love how people complain about what they were "promised". Some people need to crawl out of their mailboxes and get lives.
