LJazz Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Just a thought but could it be they are processing the orders that do NOT have free shipping first. Quick poll. Did all of you guys that have received a second confirmation have to pay for shipping? I ordered 51 CDs (with free shipping) Thursday afternoon and got the second confirmation yesterday. I ordered on Wednesday afternoon. 40 + CDs @ $2.98 (free shipping) -- no second e-mail yet. Ditto with a second order I placed Wednesday evening.

bertrand Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 (edited) I've heard nothing yet - I'll call Monday. I don't have any sort of spam filters (yet my penis is still too small, AND I haven't heard back from my Nigerian friend who cashed my deposit) so that can't explain it. Bertrand.

LJazz Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 patience? Agreed. Seems as though those who have gotten e-mails regarding shipping are still the exception at this point. All the speculation is interesting and makes for good conversation, but there is no sense getting all worked up. I'm sure they were overwhelmed with orders.

Dmitry Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Last night I placed an order for $360. This puts a serious dent in my cd buying budget for this [and next] year. It'll be shipped to my office, naturally... otherwise it could turn ugly at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 It'll be shipped to my office, naturally... otherwise it could turn ugly at home. Might be good for business too!

kh1958 Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 My resolve (40 CDs is enough to order at one time) weakened and I went back for the Coltrane box. But, I used a different credit card, so it should be all right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffrey r Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 As others have said, I think patience should be the order of the day right now. It's not like Concord is a major e-tailer, so they will likely need some time to sort through all of these orders and get them shipped. If by mid-next week early orders have not started shipping, then that would be another story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concord says they process sequentially, but some members with later orders have received confirmations while earlier orders have not... That is all.

I wonder if the "early" orders left "unprocessed" are orders by folks who questioned the free shipping deal. They might have put them aside to deal with after they have formulated a policy.

Reasonable thought, but I'm not sure that works for my order assuming my order is still "unprocessed" (I received the initial confirmation e-mail but nothing else). I ordered Wednesday afternoon, got free shipping and never asked about it -- it was the only option when I checked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Same here. I wasn't even going to think about this order for a while (my friends are in no hurry) - I have enough backlog as it is. Just, when I see that others got e-mails and I didn't, it makes me scratch my head. I got free shipping and didn't do anything about this order since. Eventually, if I didn't get an e-mail soon, I was thinking of calling. But now I'm not sure that's such a good idea. Has anyone here actualy had their shipping changed from zero to non-zero because they called, or is it just those who tried to get the free shipping who did not get it (and who 'spoiled' it for all later orders ).

TheMusicalMarine Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 I placed an order for 130 or so titles, mostly K2s (don't have any yet), limited OJCs and some Good Time Jazz titles). Hopefully most of them are available. This is one of the few purchases where I'm absolutely devoid of guilt. Helluva deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffrey r Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 I don't think the free shipping has any impact here. My first order from Thursday afternoon was for about $150 and received free shipping. I got the second e-mail ("Order Confirmation from Concord Music Group") listing the 7/18 ship date at 10AM Friday morning. I placed my second order on Friday morning, which was for about $60 and no free shipping oviously. I got my second e-mail for this order from Concord at around noon on Friday. Anyway, hope you guys get your confirmation e-mails soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 patience? I agree. More data: Order #5589 33 single discs + the Coltrane box Free shipping Haven't heard a peep from them, but I reckon they be swamped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not because I submitted several on the same day as you and I never called them about anything.........yet I'm still in that "unprocessed" pile w/you.

trane_fanatic Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 (edited) Great sale! What are all the OJC Ltd. Ed. titles in this sale? Edit - Scott: I see, thanks. Edited July 15, 2006 by trane_fanatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parkertown Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 At this point, I think they're all "Limited Editions" if not downright "endangered." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kulu se mama Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 i'll be as patient as i can be (not a strong suit on my part to begin with), but how can jeffrey r place 2 orders after many of us an get confirmations on both of them. it's great for the the people that have received confirmation, but a little confusing to the rest of us.

Brad Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 It's a great sale but I just can't justify it right now. I have most of the stuff on the Evans box, which is what I would get and I just don't see getting around to listening to all that's on the Coltrane box. I'm sort of down on the box concept right now.
