I just ordered Bishop Allen's new album from their site using Paypal. I was going to order all twelve EPs as well, but that would've meant the total being eightysix dollars, which i don't have in my account right now. Rolling Eyes

how long will it take before The Broken String arrives through my door?


place bets now!

If you ordered it through Barnes & Noble it'd only take probably 5 days. I love BA, wish more people knew who they were.

It's probably going to take 2-3 weeks.

it arrived on Friday!

Love it so much i have neglected to post in this thread. or, i actually forgot about it. You believe whichever statement you wish to.

It is amazing. It is a pity that i can't find Charm School. It should be in the collection, but i think it's been so long since i've listened to it, i've forgotton right about it.

Anyways, the delivery was not helped by a) the postal strike(s) and b) the post office across the pond.

The email from them, from the 25th of September, makes for good reading:

Hello. I'm writing with an update on your CD purchase, which by now is very late in coming. I've been receiving many complaints about undelivered records, and, well, I just returned from a personal visit to the post office to try to figure out where the records could possibly be.

To my horror, the entire batch of orders was still sitting in a box in the back of the station--I know the postmaster well enough by now that he let me go in back to look. I dropped them off on Sept 7th, and they haven't gone out yet. Needless to say, I'm very very sorry about this. Your order is now in the mail, I saw them go on a truck myself.

Thank you again to everyone who wrote us about the missing CDs, otherwise I never would've discovered the problem. You should all have your orders very soon. If I have written you previously that your order was 'already shipped' it has, unfortunately, just gone in the mail today. I had no idea that 200 of our packages were just sitting in the post office.
