Prince Estate Shop

Anyone else having trouble with the Prince Estate Shop? I'm trying to fill a couple of gaps in my collection and have a discount code i got in my email on the 6th June...I put the items in my cart, apply the code and nothing happens..no discount.... I apply the code again and it says its already applied but the price is the same...

To make it worse they announce a 25% off storewide sale today....I go back in, select my items and voila...still full price...

Am I missing something? I'm logged in, even continue on until it asks me for my card # to see if anything changes... nothing, full price either way...

I emailed them yesterday but haven't heard anything back yet

That;s jjust the usual amateur hour for them, get used to it. Just remember they are too cheap to use professionals for these simple things like a webstore and proper 'communication' is something alien to them. it is what it is, one of the greatest musical artist legacy is run by suits Prince despised, oh well shrug

To be fair, it would probably be amateur hour if Prince was still around.

It was when he was alive that why it still is. Londell pretends to be Prince.

Discount codes and sales at the estate store usually have loads of exclusions, including "all media".

I doubt you'll ever get a response from the official store, you'd probably be better off just ordering from another site that has their shit together.

It is so true. The Official Prince merchandise shop does not accept a coupon discouns for any music purchase, so you can just forget about those savings toward your music library!

Just got another email saying 25% off storewide... Still no change to vinyl prices and still no answer from musictoday (I've given up expecting one now).... why don't they add *except vinyl or something... it's pretty much false advertising as far as I'm concerned.

Their high shipping cost does dampen people's ability to buy stuff. Their coupon issuances will barely offset their shipping charge, for real!

Makes me think they want to keep this "Prince fandom" thing as a cult entity.

Music Today is a huge operatuin but not good.

Discount codes also do not apply to the"special collection" clothing items

I'd understand if there was a small, select group of items excluded, but I don't understand how you can get away with using the term "storewide" when such large swaths of the inventory are excluded.

Londell and company are con artists, plain and simple.

I was about to use my coupon but if it's not valid for music then no thanks. I don't need a new over priced shirt right now.

They were great to work with when I had a T-shirt problem over the holidays (the graphic was messed up on it). They sent a new one out right away.
