TheTransitionary Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Absolutely, that's why I'm calling bullshit - Either the Warp representative was clutching at straws to respond to the question and made themselves look foolish or TheTransitionary's re-transcribing of the email wasn't 100% accurate This is exactly what they said: With regards the wav we have experimented with providing this free to physical purchasers in the past and found it cost us far too much to deliver this to all customers. It was simply not viable for us to do. We are very sorry that we cannot provide this and would if we could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jasondonervan Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 My CD order has been dispatched from Amazon Japan, which may arrive by Saturday, all going well. If they don't start moving the status forward from in_progress anytime soon, Bleep will be beaten like a rented mule. How much was yours? (in total) I'll let you know the total once HMRC have gotten their sticky paws on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd order it along with TCH and Geogaddi, but even that's 20 pounds per CD before tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was simply not viable for us to do. We are very sorry that we cannot provide this and would if we could. Interesting, I don't remember it ever being classed as an experiment by Bleep. I thought they had done it enough times to warrant it being standard practice, at least in my mind. They're being really clueless with this... Instead of using it as a unique way to get sales/traffic through the site ("buy from us and get the high quality digital version free!"), they seem to have decided that it isn't viable, binning it off, with an outcome that generates bad blood from dedicated customers who have been consistently loyal to them over the years. Very short-sighted thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gravity Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Was originally afraid that the 16 page booklet was just going to be large versions of the vinyl sleeve stuff, happy to see it's original photos. A nice addition, like what came with the Geogaddi CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy the summer festivals. I miss those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azatoth Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I am rather miffed that there will not be any digital downloads with the vinyl order, only a shitty 320kbps version of it, that I will be officially able to download several days after it being available for free all over the internet. With this order there has been absolutely no incentive to pre-order it from Bleep. It would have been cheaper and I would have gotten it quicker if I had just walked into the local record store on Friday. Now I will probably have it in my hands a week from now or maybe later.Not pleased at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping they make up for this shit fest with some freebies, if not, then Bleep have had their last (and only) preorder from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acroyear Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 How's Norman with shipping to the US? I can't comment on that, but I know they offer insured shipping which insures you for about $375 to $750 if you're looking to buy in bulk. Bleep don't offer that as an option at all, can't comment on Juno, though. Norman ships very, very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
