I got mine at Hastings for $10.99, great deal.

Bestbuy.com had the CD listed as $14.99 which is toooo much (well maybe not for Eisley) but, to those who bought it at Best Buy, how much did you end up paying?

I got mine at Cactus Records in Houston for about $10.99 (on sale). I think they had about 10 on the rack.

The sticker on it said $11.99, but when it got rung up, apparently there was a sale or something, and it was only $9.99.

The Best Buy in Cape Girardeau, MO was the same. They only had 3 in stock and they weren't even on the racks.

But, my friend at school told me that they've started playing "Marvelous Things" and "Telescope Eyes" regularly on the local alternative/indie radio station, and apparently the guys there have been promoting it heavily.

By the way, my copy of the CD was $11.99.

i checked Tower Records and they didn't have it, but i didn't ask.
i checked Circuit City, they had 1 copy, but the sticker was covered by the price tag partly.
i checked Best Buy and they had 3 copies and 1 Marvelous Things EP. so, i got the EP and 1 album. i'm gonna check Barnes & Noble and see what it's like there.
i wonder what it's gonna be like to find the vinyl. Shocked

The guy at my best buy said Rich Isley too. And I was like no, just Eisley, so he typed I-S-L-E-Y, so I had to spell it out for him. I was disappointed because he looked like someone who would know about Eisley, but what do I know?

It was marked 11.99 here too, but rang up 9.99. Not an uncommon thing for Best Buy during first week of release.

I work at Best Buy in Austin, TX.

Today I was stuck working as a cashier for the first time in months, instead of customer service like I normally work, so I couldn't implement my plan. At the customer service desk we have a portable boombox that we usually just listen to the radio on. I was going to play Room Noises and put up a sign saying "Now playing: Eisley-Room Noises. Released today and only $11.99" I'm going to do it when I work next on Thursday.

We had our copies out for sale when I got in today. Only 1 person bought the CD at my register today, I was disappointed. But I did have a nice conversation with the one girl who did buy it. She said she couldn't wait to get out of high school today to come right over and buy it. She saw them last Monday at the Parish just like I did and loved it.

Dang so it was actually cheaper?

Hastings had it listed as 12.99 but when they rung it up it rung up as 10.99.
