I have a question: Is the pre-order not available through WIRED? I appreciate being able to have the audio stream and the $9.99 price is great, but that is with a $30 order of new merchandise. Do we not get the 20% WIRED discount on the new stuff?

I don't have the official answer to your question, but I would think that the 20% would apply to all merchandise.

The pre-order is not shown when you go to the Third Day store through WIRED.

It looks like the answer is no. The link from wired to the store does not include the pre-order stuff. Wired is looking less and less attractive to me every day.

Have you listened to the songs? They are awesome (sorry, James ;) )! They ROCK!! I love them... I'm trying to decide on my favorite, now.

I do love the songs, but disappointed if we can't get the 20% discount on merchandise which is one of the WIRED benefits.

Yea! Ordered mine - ordered me and hubby a shirt - got 2 cds (cause I'm not sharing!) and am soooo STOKED!

I am more excited to get my cd and listen in my truck than I was to see them in concert. go figure huh?

WooHoo!

I really like the new website.

And the stream for Revelation is great and so is the bonus mp3 song "Shake".

WOO HOO!!!!

That is the one I got. I ordered the regular T for Winn and the women's cut for me.

Have I mentioned how excited I am???

I am waiting to see whether the link to the pre-order is going to show up through Wired. I will be well and truly ANNOYED if we can't get our 20% discount. As I STILL haven't recieved my Wired package either.

I think the new site looks fantastic and the kids pages are a sweet touch :) The album is going to be just fantabulous I know :D

Ahhh, so the $9.99 price for the CD that we've all been talking about that was so much better than the price for the CD at other places is only available with a $30 merchandise purchase? Don't remember seeing THAT in the fine print. But then my fine print vision is bad when I wear my contacts. LOL.

Hmm... so spend $30 to save $3? And no Wired discount? Interesting. But still a good deal if you're planning on buying a tee shirt anyway. :)

But hey, did you notice that in all the girlie style shirts, there's no pink to be seen? THAT'S a good thing for those who dislike pink.

Was contemplating spacing out the order and expense a bit, and getting just the CD now for the stream and the bonus song, and getting the t shirt later with the Wired discount (I'm thinking the preorder combos, since they're already discounting the price of the CD, will probably NOT show up in the Wired discount area, at least not until the presale is over. But that's just a guess), but then figured that paying double shipping would all but eat up any Wired discount I could get later.

So for those who have already ordered, and bought the CD and a Tshirt combo, how much was your shipping?

I just paid the 12.99 for the CD and passed on the merch. I was really confused on the shirt sizes for the girl shirts. The black rhinestone has seven size choices and none of them make sense to me. Plus, I'm severely peeved at Music Today and refuse to give them any of my "extra" business over and above the basics. I am also hoping at some point we can use our wired discount for that merch if I do resolve my MT issues (yeah, right--who am I kidding?).

I'm still interested in the pre-order for the audio stream, but not particularly fond of spending $30 WITHOUT the WIRED discount on merchandise. I do like the new T-shirt designs.

That's what I'm thinking. If I buy just the CD now, $12.99 is not out of line for a CD, even without a Wired discount, and to me it's worth the difference to get the stream and the extra song.

Not sure if I want to cough up $45 at the moment for the tee/CD combo pack just to save $3 on the CD, then be able to buy the same tee later at 20% off. But then, if my math is right, the savings is only something like $4 once you factor in the full price CD, and you just KNOW shipping out two separate orders will cost more than that.

It's like a really bad word problem. "And which way was the smoke from the steam train blowing if the wind is blowing east at 30mph and the train is going west at 70mph?" :P

I know what you mean about the shipping costs. I've really been looking forward to hearing all of Revelation and a bonus song is nice. Sure wish we could get our WIRED discount on the T-shirts though. Guess I said that before.

There is now a link on Wired to the Revelation gubbins.

Yeah, I think if you buy at the merch table at a show, you probably come out the same, saving on the shipping, as with your wired online order. The pro/con column in my head for wired is a little lopsided right now.

If you go to the 3D store through WIRED, the discount is already shown. For example, the "Keep On Shining" women's tee is $25, but $20 through WIRED which is the 20% discount. I didn't see any indication on the pre-order link that we get the WIRED discount.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!! ! :(
I have just gone to order the CD and the shipping costs to the UK are............wait for it.............$14.25!!!! !!!!!!
I am sorry - but that is OUTRAGIOUS!!! That makes us think we will wait until it's released in the UK. It's a sad day for me :(
BTW - it was $21 p&p if we ordered t-shirts too :eek:

Worth the cost of the album plus more???

depends on how bad u want to hear the album...we ended up giving 10 bucks for shipping to get it 2-4 business days after it comes out but u get to listen to it for over 2 months before it comes out so depends on how bad u want it.

Revelation is terrific. I am sorry those outside the US are having troubles ordering. I wonder if it is possible to just order the cd and not ship it! That way you have the stream nearly 3 months prior to release date. That's about $4 of greatness per month or pennies a day.

It is Soooooooooooooooooooooooo oooo good.

I just checked shipping and the cost is $6.40 if you are willing to wait 3-10 days after release which would be worth it to have the audio stream. Maybe we can find someone who would be willing to ship it to you. I imagine most of the stores will have it on sale 7/29.

Love the DUNES on the website intro! Hey, how did I end up paying like $15 for shipping on the cd and 2 shirts? I don't think I ordered express. Also, forgive my ignorance, but how do you listen to the album once you've ordered? I can't figure it out.

$12.78 standard
$13.85 expedited
$19.25 express

Yeah, I checked and I inadvertantly chose expedited--but, it's only $1 difference.

I chose the standard shipment. (the one that was 3 to 7 days after the release date) Should I have chosen expedited instead, or does it not matter? Which one out of the three choices did you choose?

Hmm...when I try to click thru to the store, or quite a few of the rest of the links on Wired, it errors on me. But that's nothing new; about half the time I visit Wired, this happens. :rolleyes:

I'm going to contemplate my pre-order...the t-shirts are cool....

SirMax
05-02-2008, 03:48 PM
So if I buy a t-shirt am I going to have to wait until July to get it???? I think I'll just buy the shirt I want at the show. No extras fees....Music Today stinks and I don't feel like giving them anymore money than I have to....

Thanks for the non-pink shirts though...I'm very happy with that!

That's what I say! I think they are already selling the black rhinestone shirt at the shows. Not sure about the others. I'll buy at the table. I think the discount from wired is pretty much the same as the shipping cost.

05-02-2008, 06:29 PM
I wasn't too crazy about any of the t-shirts. The one that I sort of did like was only 25 bucks. That would have left me having to find something else to buy for at least 5 bucks to get the CD for 9.99. So, I just got the CD by itself. 12.99 + 6.40 shipping. Almost 20 bucks but worth it to get the stream 2 months early plus the download of "Shake".

The Unknown Gomer
05-02-2008, 06:33 PM
:confused: The smileys are working just fine here.

Just preordered and got my confirmation email. I'm in the middle of uploading a bunch of files (another 4.3 hours to go), and don't want them to get tangled up with the stream so will listen tomorrow morning, I guess.

After sitting down and doing the math, I held off on getting a t-shirt for now. It costs just a smidge ($2.60) less to get the shirt/CD combo now than to get the CD now at full price and get the tshirt at the Wired 20% off later. But since I couldn't make up my mind between two of the shirts, and didn't want to hold up the preorder stream until I made up my mind, I figured I'd pick up the shirt at some other time and who knows, maybe catch it on sale or at the show in September or something. And I'm with Wendy, the less money I give to Music Today at this point, the happier I am anyway.

Finally got the CD ordered, anyway, so that's done. :)

...So, I just got the CD by itself. 12.99 + 6.40 shipping. Almost 20 bucks but worth it to get the stream 2 months early plus the download of "Shake".

Yup. That's what I did too. About blew a gasket when I saw the total with the shipping, but it could be worse, we could be Ems and have it cost $27 for the CD after tacking on THEIR shipping charges!

rossid
05-02-2008, 06:50 PM

And the smilies are not downloading in the box as I type this reply.

Just the :eek: and :P show up.

;) (wink) :D (Big Grin) and all the others are are not working. Yes I just typed them in this sentence and can't see them after hitting preview or submit.

But now let me give Shake a listen....

You know I will ship anything you want to order to you. Just let me know.

So far I have not pre-ordered the CD. I am not too happy with MusicToday either, but I probably will end up doing the pre-order to get the bonus track, since you guys seem to like it so much. I like some of the t-shirts, but I am going to hold off on that for now.

The bonus track is well worth the aggravation of dealing with musictoday. Seriously rocks.
