panic at the credit card bill

[erilyn]

I'm seriously thinking about buying the deluxe edition of Pretty. Odd. Someone come and talk me out of it. Though since the FBR store won't let me access the deluxe edition, I may be saved already. Nope, seems they do want me to take my money. ARGH, decisions. ETA: store still dead. LET ME MAKE AN IMPULSE BUY!

Speaking of Panic, I'm hoping that y'all have as non-stressful and successful ticket-buying experiences as possible. Abusing alcohol will not help - it'll just slow you down when you're trying to buy.

My exam this morning went...adequately. I'll be surprised if I fail, will be surprised if I do better than a pass.

Excuse me while I go listen to Nine in the Afternoon again. And again.

But it's cd+making-of-dvd+VINYL+tshirt! Such a good package! ARGH.

It's pricey but I just can't resist - except for how their site is DYING under the load.

It's telling me that it is sold out. Dammit dammit dammit.

You should be getting some money in your bank account btw. I just finished paying off the money I owe you. Now you can spend it all, yay!

It isn't sold out!! I think that was just one variation on the list of "we are fucked up right now" messages.

I finally got it to work by using another browser and logging into my account first. When I got the "sold out message" I clicked on view cart and it let me keep going from there.

Tentative yay? I will have full blown yay when I have a confirmation and it is in my cart.

Thank you!

Also, it timed out while it was processing my credit card info. I got an error message, but when I refreshed my account order history it was there. So, don't click order several times and accidentally order 12 copies! I did that this summer and ended up with 5 of the same orders b/c I kept getting error messages. Grrr. Stupid site.

I managed to get one in my cart (thanks for the tip about going to the cart after getting the sold out message), but now I'm getting another SQL message which could indicate it's having problems with my address. They better be willing to ship this sucker internationally, you bastards.

Omg. Success. Finally. I had to stop for awhile and go have a sandwich because otherwise I would have smacked my computer in its face.

victory is ours!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I have had success too! Except I think they ended up charging me more shipping than I wanted, but I don't care!

I'm trying to set up an account now, I've never ordered from them before.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

*sniffs* But I made up my mind to buy it! And thank you :)

I just keep getting error messages. DAMN YOU FAST-MOVING TEENIES!

[not-nele.livejournal.com]

Go for it! I am totally spending money I do not have. But... I don't need to eat for the next week. I have pizza!

::kicks site::

At least let me set up an account!

[babygotbass.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I can't talk you out of the deluxe CD+vinyl+DVD BECAUSE I JUST BOUGHT MINE!!! And I can't wait to see all of the artsy shit they came up with.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I WANT TO BUY IT! I shall keep trying :D

[shihadchick.livejournal.com]

This is sooooo belated, but you do realise my personal setting is always on "enable", right? :D

*salutes you in the pursuit of our ridiculous ordering enterprises*

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I'm suddenly freaked out that I won't like the album enough to justify this.

Then I consoled myself that if it's really not my cuppa tea, I'll sell the vinyl on ebay ;)

[shihadchick.livejournal.com]

...yeah, I had that moment as well (especially as it kept insisting on trying to give me two), but, yeah. Though I'm pretty sure I will. Plus, vinyl. *tries not to embarrass self by drooling in public*

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I can't wait to listen to it on the record player :D

[shihadchick.livejournal.com]

Oh, man, me too, exactly. ...although I guess that'll mean I have to take Arcade Fire out of it first. This could be difficult. :D (Funeral is just alksjdalksjdGUH on vinyl, oh man.)

never was there a more appropriate subject title. seriously.

At this point, my envy over the HCT shows has been killed by my relief that I'm not having to deal with the ticket buying. So I splurged on this instead :) Good luck if you're trying for tickets!

[flyingtapes.livejournal.com]

We get no HCT in the UK, unfortunately. But I am seeing them on March 14! Before the HCT dates, even.

Have a great time :D
