My story with the online ordering this time is as follows:
I'd planned all along to order the three new discs from Amazon, as I'd done in the past. A couple of weeks before the release date, I read with interest about the Sony Online Music store, and their reliably early delivery, beating the release date.
Being anxious for this set, I succumbed to this "dark side", placing an order with Sony that came out to a nice. cheap $30. As I read the posts from the others here who recommended them, saying that theirs were on the way, I kept checking the status of my order, where it was constantly listed as "in process".
Release day came and went, and I got my copies at Borders, but the online order was still "in process". At this point I was quite sorry I strayed from the Amazon fold, and fired off an email to the Sony folks.
I got a reply that they didn't know what had happened but they were going to discuss why it happened with their distribution people. Meanwhile, I was assured that my package was sent out on that evening, 8/16.
Well, here we are on 8/27, quite a few emails later, and still I have not received this order. Yesterday, I was informed that a replacement order was being sent out UPS. At this point I'll believe it when I see it.
Ugh. That's what I get for straying from the fold...
