There are a bunch of 25-cent songs right now from Call Me Maybe and a new song from Fun, to a bunch of older sogs that have a summertime theme. They're probably best found on the sales chart

Looks like an error they're already on. No longer available for sale and the individual albums are 8.99 each. Too bad, as I would've hopped on this in a heartbeat.

Getting the Katy Perry, Bonnie Raitt, and maybe some others.

Not sure what they're doing over there, but shades of the Alien deal, they sent me a mail advertising $0.99 deals, not $1.99. And they have a link on each deal page to the complete list, but they show Katy Perry's original Teenage Dream Album, not the newer Complete Confection.

They are now 99 cents each.

Laser Movies 07-03-12 04:27 PM

Re: Amazon MP3 DOTD Thread (2012)
 
Damn! I ordered a couple of them while they were $1.99. Wonder if I can get a price adjustment? However for 99 cents I'm going to order more I was on the fence about.

Also if you search you might find other versions of the albums available for 99 cents that include digital booklets that are not at listed at the link.

davidh777 07-03-12 04:28 PM

Re: Amazon MP3 DOTD Thread (2012)
 
Well, damn, I even bought Lana Del Rey since it was 0.99. Also the Florence and the Machine that's been bugging me for months. fun, Regina Spektor, and the Black Keys--what the heck at that price.

I bought three earlier at the "doubled" price :lol: and they don't seem to have been adjusted, though I see some customers have mentioned getting a reduction. Not sure if it's worth my time, though.

I sent a email to customer service for a refund. Only took a minute to possibly save a few dollars.

I sent an email asking for a refund also. We'll see what they have to say.

I heard back on my email. No refund but they are giving me a promotional credit for $2 in my account that I can use on any purchase.

I got an email back that said they were going to refund $3.98 to my card which is a total refund for the two albums I bought this morning. Strange that they aren't treating all orders the same.

It's typical with Amazon's customer service. It depends upon the CSR and how they handle your problem. I was just hoping to at least get my $2 back one way or another. Maybe I'll luck out and get the refund mentioned at Twitter for another $2.

Looks like the refund is a promotional credit. I was just checking my account and noticed I now have $4 of promotional credit. Edit to add I just received the email from Amazon confirming they added the credit to my account.

Yep, I got the $3.98 refunded to my card and got a two dollar promotional credit also.

I bought 4 albums on the 3rd for .99 cents each but I sure had a hard time getting them to download without problems. Every single album downloaded really slowly and each album had at least one or two songs that I had to retry the download because there was an error during the download. It was a pain. I had never had any problems before downloading nor has it ever taken nearly that long to download through Amazon. Anyone else have any problems the other day?
