I'm trying to upgrade from a CD/Shirt combo to the Deluxe Package myself. don't know what I was thinking besides saving a little dough...

it looks like the only difference in shirts at best buy vs through the website here is color. it's hard to see...

looking forward to the store opening up and seeing the official hsc2 merch...

I bought the Deluxe and am so happy I did. I wanted to get in on having some rare stuff from this album. Anyway I’am for sure going to BEST BUY to purchase the CD for the experience alone. I need a copy to save for mementos sake and then one I can just play the hell out of and not worry about whether it gets worn out or not. :)

standard shipping 3-7 days i would hope! (in the US at least) probably some depends on where it ships from and where you live.

these i dont really get.


obviously everyone knows what an iron on is, but what is it for? just to collect? to put on the back of your shirt? to put it on a new shirt? hang it on your wall? ANSWER ME DAMN IT!

Anybody get this yet? As I mentioned earlier, I'm not a Best Buy fan, but the shirt lured me in. Ordered it online and will pick it up this afternoon...

Just saw it in the local store here. They had one "large" bundle so I had to pass...

Thanks. Hoping it's a large "Large." (And yes, that's what she said.)

What a joke. The presale said the tshirts were exclusive to the presale...now they are available at best buy just in a different color.

The Best Buy around my way only got one. I think they only come in large.

Luckily, I fit large if it's truly a medium.

I copped it. It was $20.99.

I'm not mad because I didn't do the pre-sale (I'm holding out for the vinyl) and now I have the CD, a nifty T-Shirt, and the packaging is kinda cool for the shelf of other shit I display.

I'll post pics in a few.

To be fair, the pre-sale shirt was "The Therapist," while the Best Buy shirt is "Mid-Eveal." Collect them all and trade them with your friends!

Pre-ordered the Deluxe package. But broke down at lunch, sped to Best Buy and snagged a "Best Buy Exclusive" package.

Shits dope!

Me too! Just got back from Best Buy. I walked all around the store freaking out because I couldn’t find it. And then I walk to the front and it’s out on a table on display! Got my shirt too! I must say the artwork is beautiful, it does go well with the chicken!


Sound quality…….. Off the HOOK!

I just back from best buy too. got there when they opened. Couldn't find the album either, so I also started freaking out. I called yesterday and they said they were getting it I told the sales clerk who was helping me. Then some random girl pointed it out to me. Got the one and only t shirt combo. Large comes no where near fitting me, so I got that for my wife. All this happened because amazon screwed up my order and emailed me yesterday to tell me I wouldn't be getting mine until fri! I said hell naaa! So I went to bbuy and got it even earlier than expected! Sounds fantastic by the way on cd.

DOH! How did I not realize this was different packaging. Thanks Micodin, I called my local Best Buy and they are holding one for me.

It's not that bad! Most CD's cost 20 bucks, a CD and a free shirt in a cool box that reminds me of a rubix cube!

No bestbuy deal in Canada ... I should have phoned first. Oh well at least it was only $13. Now where's my deluxe? I want my weird shirt!

Micodin
05-03-2011, 04:05 PM
Yeah, CJ

The box says CD+Large T-Shirt

Luckily I'm between a Med and a Large...

I tried it on and it fits perfectly.

I'm thinking there's one per store because I got there at 10:10 and it opens at 10.

The Best Buy site now says backordered for the package.

Right time, right place...

Me 2 on the Deluxe package + best buy cd/shirt maneuver...

Freaked out a little when there was no confirmation of shipping date in the email I got from topspin at 12:03 AM today. Usually ships in 72 hours was not gonna cut it today.

There was a best buy just a few blocks from one of the record stores where the lee majors 7" was supposed to be in. Went to the record store first. They said they only got 4 copies and would be raffling it off to people who purchased a cd. Nice on them I think, but ultimately Beastie swag in hand always worth 2 in the bush, no brainer for my best buy exclusive tshirt!

The record store was cool enough to give me a lamenated hscpt2 card on a lanyard thingy. Very cool of them- will have to hit them up again...

Very happy right now- so nice to have album (AND TSHIRT) in hand finally!


:D

Got mines around 3PM. Shirt too small, but that's ai-ight -- perhaps a future gift. The packaging was pretty cool, as you saw from Micodin's photo (props). The CD sounds freaking fantastic!

Put that Best Buy gift card to good use finally.

Cool T-shirt. Mine's blue. Enjoying the album! The CD sounds really good.
