| Quote (Korgscrew @ May 17 2009, 18:23) | I also think it's a shame they didn't give some kind of advance warning. They're generally not very good about letting people know what their plans are, or thinking about things from fans' perspective (and they don't seem too keen on taking advice about that either).
Anyway, I see one clear course of action here...and that's to start counting people who would have bought a copy but couldn't. Once we've got an idea of numbers, we can let Universal know, and if they're not interested in doing anything about it, we'll have to see what we can do without their help...and if we can't do anything without their help...well, at least we'll have tried (or we can make potato prints of Mike's signature). I'm making no promises at all other than that we'll do what we can - in fact, it's very unlikely you'll be able to buy the exact same thing, as they've already stated that this is a limited edition of 500 (and having sold them on that basis, they now have a contract with the people who've already ordered...if it turns out they're making more than 500, they'll have trouble on their hands) - but maybe we can come up with some kind of interesting solution (and maybe a few people will decide they don't want copies they've already bought and will be kind enough to part company with them at a reasonable price...).
So...if you're still interested in a copy (or something broadly similar), let me know, either here or in PM. Once I've got an idea of numbers, I'll start talking to people and see where things lead. |
i am for that ones who could not have the chance to buy a copy to have at the same a private concert of Mike ! 
More seriously , i can't say i didn't know ; every night after my work i was watching to my box mail . But when i have seen the price ??? i was sure it would be close to the 50 or 60 € and not 95 € ! In fact , after talking about that with my wife , we said to ourselves that it was not so expensive for this boxset but the problem is the selling date of it ! This week ! ... I simply couldn't buy one this current week and even not this month ! My budget is calculated at the near cent ! We had some expensive buyings these last 2 weeks ,for me , my family and my house and we have planed to have some holidays next summer , so i simply couldn't . Honestly , i was interested by Mike's autograph because i've seen him two times in, concert but i didn't got the chance to meet him for asking to this ! This breaks my heart because i'm really a fan of Mike's music since i was twelve years old and not being able to buy this set is something like not to be a real fan ! But Korgscrew , you can count me in for anything else !
