stuartjo Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 WTF too. I'm going into the army on 26th Dec. So can I hold that only like 10 days? THIS IS A JOKE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Yes you get mp3 downloads on day of release, so we can listen to it straight away, minus the booklet :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplayfan24 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I think I might put it under the tree as well, after all I did use the parents credit card for it. It seems you get the edition in December. But you get the audio files downloadable when the album is out which is pretty good. I want to listen to the album on vinyl but I don't want to buy the vinyl and the limited edition version that's way too much. That's the only way to get the extra stuff is waiting until December and because it's shipping to Canada I won't get it for a while after release not to mention the delay due to the amount of Christmas mail.

Yeah I guess in that regard it is a bummer. Can't believe the year is almost over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmets21 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I'll just buy the vinyl when it comes out at Best Buy - vinyl's now a day come w/ either the CD or the MP3 downloads so I'm covered either way. Plus I'll save $60-70 for not being suckered into that wretched deluxe edition. OHHHHHH pictures! Gimme a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can´t resist and the thought that it will be all wrapped up under the christmas tree makes me glow with happiness :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Ok Maybe I am being paranoid, but I chose standard shipping and I am wondering whether it would arrive in time for Christmas? :O Have you chosen standard or courier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sjef Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 It's pretty expensive and it's a long wait. But I'm sure it's gonna be worth it! Even if you would get only the copies of notes and handwritten lyrics of the songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Courier or standard? I am torn. Any other non-UK ordering the pop edition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nopix Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Do you have to pay immideately to pre order? Coz I won't be able to pay until like thursday or something, as my card has been stolen (getting a new one this week).... I'm a bit anxious, since they call it a "limited" version....

Lore Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 it's smart, people will buy both editions. EMI will make more money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrman78 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I thought it was pretty reasonable. I really think this is pretty limited - hence the later December release date. I'm guessing once they reach the pre-determined limit of pre-orders it will be sold out. It's costing me $92 with shipping and taxes and I feel it's a fair price as you get all three formats (MP3, CD and Vinyl) which make up half the cost, so you are paying half for the book, etc. and the fact it is limited in the first place! Mind you, if it didn't include the MP3 album on October 24 I don't know if I would have bitten - ah, who am I kidding, but still! Plus, if it really is that limited, it will go for much more later!

Jedi Leo Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I am wary of the limited definition: it might mean limited amount of copies or it just might mean special edition always available. I guess we will see. Anyone can advise me on courier or standard shipping? Sorry for sounding paranoid, but I REALLY want this for Christmas :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlipBack Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Don't feel great coughing up the dough for this, as I am uncertain where MX is going to stack up as an album, but I'll probably order it later today. Man I hope it's worth it... Might just sell the Vinyl and the stencils/stickers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Sell the stencils and stickers? Blasphemy! hehe :) Anyone knows what this means? Delivery Date w/c 12 September. Does w/c stand for courier? Does it mean the package will not be delivered by 12 September with standard delivery? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlipBack Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Sell the stencils and stickers? Blasphemy! hehe :) I just want the CD, pop-up book, and the studio diary/band journals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Leo Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I love it! Love it so much! If I get the poster as well as featured on the picture at Coldplay.com I will be 100% ecstatic about the art in this edition :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamgirl Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I have a question that I think should go in this thread....I didn't want to start a new one just for this. But I am wondering what are the pros of pre-ordering just the cd over waiting to buy it in my local store? Do you get anything extra or different? I would like to preorder, but then it will take so long to get here. I could probably have my hands on the cd sooner if I walked to my store and bought it on October 24th. I would LOVE to order the limited edition, but I am trying to curtail my spending habits. Though I would really love some stickers and stencils. :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
