Aggie87 Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 That's odd. It worked for me last night - I actually placed an order with the "Buy 1 Get 4 Free, plus 3 additional Free cds" offer. Maybe it was a mistake and they corrected it. Sorry - that new deal isn't that big a deal. Quote
Ron S Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 That's odd. It worked for me last night - I actually placed an order with the "Buy 1 Get 4 Free, plus 3 additional Free cds" offer. Yeah, right. Quote

WD45 Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 Just placed an order with the code -- worked out to $5.07/disc! Quote
Big Al Posted January 17, 2008 Author Report Posted January 17, 2008 Just placed an order with the code -- worked out to $5.07/disc! What did you order? Actually I'm more curious as to how many you ordered. Quote
WD45 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 Just placed an order with the code -- worked out to $5.07/disc! What did you order? Actually I'm more curious as to how many you ordered. Since you asked, here are the details! David Torn - Prezens Coltrane/Hartman Jimmy Smith - Midnight Special Patsy Cline - Greatest Hits Gerry Mulligan - At the Village Vanguard Getz & Gilberto Paul Chambers - Bass on Top I had the unlimited $3.99 deal, so the more I ordered, the more the individual disc price went up. Maybe I should try to use the code again... Quote
WD45 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 So I used the code again: Herbie Hancock: Mwandishi 2CD set Miles Davis - Lift to the Scaffold Trio Mediaeval - Stella Maris Bill Frisell, et al. - Floratone $4.23 per disc! Dare I do it again? Will these actually ship at this price? Quote
WD45 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 It seems that you do not even need to buy a disc at regular price. Just ordered Mingus at Cornell 1964 and Johnny Griffin Introducing, paying only shipping. WTF! $2.72/disc! Too good to be true? Quote
Aggie87 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 My order shipped yesterday, and it looks like the Buy 1 Get 7 free thing worked. I think that code (J8E2 or 4) just added 3 free CDs to whatever your standard offer is. So at the time I posted it my standard offer was Buy 1 Get 4 Free. That standard offer changed pretty quickly though. Quote

Just ordered Mingus at Cornell 1964 and Johnny Griffin Introducing, paying only shipping. WTF! $2.72/disc! Too good to be true? We'll find out. I just placed three orders of three CDs each. Every one of them was free. We'll see if they actually ship them at that price. Edited January 18, 2008 by Big Al Quote
WD45 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 If it is all automated, maybe they'll ship without a hitch. Quote
Big Al Posted January 18, 2008 Author Report Posted January 18, 2008 If it is all automated, maybe they'll ship without a hitch. At some point, you'd think they'd realize that I've been going apeshit all morning placing 3-CD orders. I just bought the Charlie Parker Savoy/Dial takes for SIX BUCKS!!! At this moment, anyway...

Ron S Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 I just went frickin' nuts with a bunch of 3-CD orders. Quote
Aggie87 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 I just went frickin' nuts with a bunch of 3-CD orders. Don't ruin it for the rest of us! Quote

trane_fanatic Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) Do these codes only work for long-time members? Haven't been a BMG member since the 90s when I was a teenager and they tried to stick me with a lame Michael Jackson remix album as the Selection of the Month, so I'm waaaaaaay outta the loop.

WD45 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 All of my orders are labeled in the "my Account" section at BMG as "paid by credit card." They have all shown up on my bank statement as well. Quote
Aggie87 Posted January 20, 2008 Report Posted January 20, 2008 Well, I don't know what's going on with this "sale" now. The Buy 1 Get 7 order that said yesterday that it had shipped, is now saying "Not Shipped", and each item is listed as "Temporarily Out of Stock". And the couple (ok more than a couple ) of items that I ordered for "free" yesterday all show as shipped now. I wonder if their status will change to Temp. Out of Stock too shortly - if BMG caught the glitch or whatever it is. Quote
