Anyone having troubles ordering from AMAZON?

Are you sure this isn't a permanent policy due to SEO spamming/chart spiking?

 

well seeing as so many of us can't order any cd's at all.....
i'm going to guess no....

plus why would Amazon care about how many of anything someone wants to buy.

that's like going to a bake sale and the person selling gets mad at you for buying half of their goods....

if you have lots of things to sell, you want to sell as much as possible....simple as that.

 

I'm convinced it's a mistake

 

I missed out on a hard to find CD I wanted from a third party. Damn you Bezos!

 

Like the IT dept software engineers still haven't gotten tickets or still not aware? SOUNDS LIKE all levels know how to pass the buck...wow.

 

I've seen this theory floating around a little, but I don't think it checks out since this also applies to used CDs and vinyl. Are they really worried that someone is going to order both available used copies of a Mudhoney CD from 2002 to somehow game the sales charts? I still think it's a glitch.

 

I have been assured that opening a second account to make a purchase is OK. They would rather not lose the sales. They are not crazy.

 

Seems to be fixed

 

Yes! I was able to order my vinyl record too!!! OMG THIS HAPPENING?! IT people must be relieved!

 

Yes, it looks fixed for now. Maybe those emails to Jeff Bezos worked after all. Thanks to everyone who wasted a least a little of their time on this stupid problem.

 

Wonderful! Fixed! Just pre-ordered two CDs, completed the orders for the two CDs I wanted to buy on Friday, and added one new Mktplace CD too! Let my usual bacchanalian CD spending spree recommence!

 

"Yeah, WHY THE **** do I keep getting these emails from someone named, CDR303??? telling me about not able to buy his CDs????? GET ON IT NOW! I'm trying to get to Mars, not deal with music fans."

 

I ORDERED BRIAN WILSON THANK YOU GOD BEZOS

 

Me too — glad Long Promised Road is getting a physical CD release at last!

 

This was me all afternoon:



IF WE PANIC WE DIE!!!

 

I believe my email to Jeff Bezos may have really helped:

FINALLY!!

Just ordered the 3 things i was trying to pre-order
and then just placed an order for the cd that was in stock i was trying to get originally last week when this all started.

 

Appreciate the feedback on the corrective services by Amazon. It is worth remembering that standard CS is a waste of time. Direct correspondence (shared by those stated earlier) seemed to be far more practical approach. Kudos to those who did so.

 

Mission complete CDRebels!!!

 

Everyone this was obviously an inside job by the Steve Hoffman site as a membership drive and spike hits on this site through Google searches.

Hey, there are some out there conspiracy theories on this thread so why not this one?

 

THANK YOU!

 

Well heck...the thread gone dead now since issue resolved.
CHEERS to all music lovers that endured horrid CS, 5 days without the freedom of buying music they wanted. WE ENDURED.. and kept the passion, calling, emailing, stomping, pounding...striving for better service and to be able to do what we love...just buy our musical interests on cd, tape, vinyl. WHEW...what a ride. Yet still, the world out there is in disarray....Thank Gosh Golly for our family and MUSIC!!

 

I'm good with this thread remaining a catch all for all horrible interaction with Amazon customer service. That will remain an issue even if this specific one is resolved.

 

RIGHT ON! THUS, til next the Amazon forces crush the Music on CDLPTAPE crusaders...we will be ready to rumble and get the Amazon universe back to a non stressful music media purchase place.
Rock on Music loving, collecting , appreciating, Discovering, Jamming Family!

 

Seems to be fixed now. At least for me.
