A funny story to share here...

In august i ordered Accelerator on vinyl on Amazon UK. It was listed as temporarily out of stock, but I wouldnt mind waiting as i figured it could take them a while to find one in new condition, and it would be worth the wait.

Just before Christmas, i was notified that it had suddenly been shipped! I was thrilled until i saw that Amazon now list the price as ~9£ while it was 27£ when i ordered!
I contacted their support, who said they would refund the full amount if i returned the parcel, after which i could reorder the item at the new and lower price. I tried to explain to them what a waste of resources it would be to post the same item back and forth, instead of just giving me a voucher for the price difference, but to no avail. Very silly because usually Amazon has given me really good support.

Today i received the item they send me.
Notice how i didnt say that i received the Accelerator vinyl, because what i got was this. You can listen to it here.

Long story short, anyone up for a swap with Accelerator on vinyl??

this is just a trick to get us to listen to your song, isn't it?



;p

That's utterly baffling. I'm hoping you sent it back!

Bizarre. Funny though - worth the hassle of sending it back just for the story

I contacted them again, they refunded the full amount and i dont need to send it back thank goodness.

So, if anyone wants this akward maxi single, which is so rare that it isnt even on discogs, let me know

sorry, if it's not on discogs then it simply doesn't exist!
