PayPal sounds awesomeeee for me - and the price for the awesome limited edition package. Gotta get some more art commissions to raise more money though - this might be hard. (maybeyouguyscanhelpme?? *random plug*)

I'll try to be patient though.

Re: Barking Pre-Order Problem
 
For the record, are there a definite limited number of editions of this? Basically I want it for my birthday, but I don't think my parents will be up for paying for that just yet. But I don't want it to sell out as I want that second fucking disc.
I'm getting a bit antsy about it now.

Radiohead never had a cutting off point for their stuff, so I imagine they'll have plenty on mass, or will sell and make to order.

I'm starting to panic! I have to drive to San Diego tonight (~2 hours) and I'm afraid the pre-order will go live while I'm in transit and all you bastards will have bought all the special editions!

i am upset that no one from the uw team has posted anything

Yeah, if only there was a person who managed the forums and also had contact with Underworld to act as a liaison between the band and the fans. Wonder who that would be. Wonder how we could get some information like that. Hmm.

I'm hoping that they'll have the store closed until the end of the month... I have zero cash available to pre-order the big box of fun until then :D

It is 10:21PM eastern standard. I am home from work. I have worried about this all day. And the shop is still closed.

damn. it.

ultradave 07-20-2010 08:46 PM

Re: Barking Pre-Order Problem
 
hmmm, still closed... doesn't seem like they'll be open today, unless they are planning on showcasing the goods at 11:59pm Hawaii (HST)... in which we still have about 8hrs to go... :D

I am similarly broke, but it'd be nice if everybody had access to the system! Oh, well. Patience is a virtue and all that...

so the store is still closed and... no updates or changes.

They just refunded me after my, er, premature purchase :)
i hadn't even emailed them to ask if my order went through...

i promise to wait til the shop is deffo open this time ;)

Re: Barking Pre-Order Problem
 
whats this assumption that this is ultra rare and will sell out in seconds? i've been quite relaxed about all this since if this does sell out i have my amazon pre-order still, though theres no indication that this is like a box of extra tokyo gigs lying around to snatch up on ebay in under 20 minutes

BrotherLovesDub 07-21-2010 10:03 AM

Re: Barking Pre-Order Problem
 
You've already pre-ordered a copy so you are relaxed. This is purely psychological. Once I order it I can relax. My urgency isn't due to an assumed scarcity in the Ltd. box.

well. shops up. pre-order selected. paypal link clicked... and what's this?!!! :confused:

This recipient does not accept payments denominated in U.S. Dollars. Please contact the seller and ask him to update his payment receiving preferences to accept this currency.


That's it! I'm moving!!!

And there are no other options to pay except via Paypal.

Sent an email about the issue and got this response:

We're undergoing some work on the site at the moment. I am sorry for the inconvenience. Please come to the site again in a couple of days as I cannot give an exact time of completion at the moment. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
Kind regards,

A couple of day?! no!!!

If they don't accept US dollars, why does the site have the option for US dollars. I would have guessed this is what they were working on but probably not.

Re: Barking Pre-Order (Problems)
 
UGH just had the same "does not accept this currency" error. I've been monitoring this for a the last week or so and now that the shop is finally up, I get denied at the checkout process. Beyond frustrating...

Same problem in Denmark - only here Paypal won't accept Euros.
And Euros are pre-selected in the shop and I can't find a place to change the currency.
I've just emailed support@digitalanimal.com so hopefully a solution is on the way (it better be...)

Re: Barking Pre-Order (Problems)
 
isnt that just a Paypal setting? Not to mention there is no other way to pay besides Paypal.

Thats mines ordered, wonder what the signed art print will be like.

One thing that does seem a bit odd is that the WAV download costs more than the Standard CD, why would you pay more to not even get a physical product?

khouri 07-22-2010 12:08 PM

Re: Barking Pre-Order (Problems)
 
I switched my country to the UK and it still denied me on account of the US dollars thing, before I could even login to PayPal. What bullshit.

For one thing. you don't have to wait... you could start blasting it as soon as you DL it.

there is something to this: how can we change our location? or is this automatically generated based on our location???

yey! just bought the boxset thingy. and managed to cancel my HMV order.

Fair point, but I imagine it wont take very long after the release date for the CD to turn up. I remember with Oblivion With Bells the CD arrived through my door before the actual release date.

Anyone from Canada got an order through yet? I started but then stopped...for some reason the PayPal page that I was forwarded to after clicking the Checkout button in the UW Shop was not secured and I refuse to put my credit card info on an unsecure page. Hope that is just some glitch that gets remedied.

Definitely want the vinyl, but I'm a little sad that it doesn't give you automatic access to the MP3s...I can rip from vinyl to digital, why can't they spare me the work?

Is it safe to assume that because it's 8pm in england, that this issue isn't going to be resolved in the next 12 hours.
