Right, this may get me into trouble, but I don't care the cunts can sue me.
I pre-ordered the CD+DVD edition of REM's new album ACCELERATE from Amazon uk, Believing I would get it on release day, well 5 days after release I get an email from them telling me "We're still trying to obtain the following item[s] you ordered", "Still want it? We'll keep on trying." "Estimated ship date: 06/05/08 - 21/05/08".
So despite pre order, they want 5 weeks after release date to try and obtain a copy for me, fucking cunts, if they couldn't match the release date why not tell me before?
I just hope my pal can pick up a copy for me in a local record shop in next day or so, cos they do seem to have them instore, just not in my neighbourhood, hence my pre-order.
I can't even cancel my pre-order till I know someone has picked me up a copy of the DVD+CD version I want. Bastards.
