Apparently the concept that people would like to spend more money is new to them.

I placed my order this morning and my brother is now interested in Angel Olsen at the discount price but no dice.

In all seriousness I agree completely but am equally not surprised. Their whole model is built around FOMO so I’m guessing the expectations for them are panic induced “gotta catch them all” baskets full of records people don’t really want all that much but hey they’re cheap!

I wasnt caught. I browsed & quickly realised nothing was an absolute must buy..... And returned to UK websites.
I mean why pay slightly more for items I wont receive for at least 3 weeks.

I bought Fiona earlier in the week with the 10% code on top of the original discount. There is litterally nothing else in their store that even remotely interests me right now. I likely won’t even touch their site today.

I’m still a member so it worked out as €22ish off my cc once the currency conversion was done so I don’t think I’m going too far wrong there. If I wasn’t a member I’d want to ordering a fair amount to make that $15 worthwhile and I don’t think they’ve got that depth of quality right now.

I posted this on reddit as well, but if any of you have initiated cancellations for Dec and are seeing shipping charges when you try to use the BF code, just undo your cancellation, place your order (now with free shipping), then cancel again. One last set of hoops for that Jay Som I’d been eyeing but unwilling to drop $29 on. Never again.

It’s weird, I have it in my cart and it shows the discount applied. I may try it out and worst case I paid for my memebership a month early.

Yeah I bought one late last night and the discount did work on it. But I’m not sure when I will actually receive the credits.

The 30% code is one time use even though it didn't say anything in the email about it because of course it is.

Yeah, and it's fucked, because, with free shipping, members have learned to cart things quick, check out, and go back for more to prevent them selling out in the cart.
