$4 LPs
We Are the Union – Great Leaps Forward
The Riot Before – Rebellion
The Swellers – Ups and Downsizing (Rust)
The Swellers - Ups and Downsizing (Dirt)
Hellmouth – Gravestone Skylines

$5 LPs
Have Nots – Proud

$2 10”s and 7”s
The Flatliners/The Snips – Split
Bomb The Music Industry – Everybody That You Love
The Swellers – Welcome Back Riders


This was my cart. $31 total. It was just about $20 for shipping. Totally unreasonable if you ask me. Should be about half of that.

That's not unreasonable at all for that much stuff.

Picked up the Swellers' full length and EP for under $12 including shipping. Awesome deal!

I agree that 20 bucks for shipping is unreasonable, but in this instance you paid a total of 50 bucks for 9 records. that means each record you picked up cost you under 6 bucks. that's still dirt cheap for any record. even 7" and splits are usually 12 - 15 bucks a pop.

Just grabbed My Roaring Twenties and Farewell Continental' entire discography for 11 bucks with shipping. Amazing.

Got Cheap Girls and BTMI for under $10 including shipping. Not bad.

Six 12" and three 7" records should only be $10 to ship? Maybe you're not familiar with how things work.

Regardless, after reading the concerns about shipping, I just changed our shipping policy in the webstore:

For all U.S. orders, the first LP is $4.90, and each additional 12" is $1, while each additional 7" is an extra 50 cents to add onto the price.

That means that your specific order will now cost like $12 or so.

Also really hoping the name of this sale doesn't get me sued by Subway.

If you literally are grabbing two records then your shipping will be $5.90. Not ridiculous at all really.

LOL at someone bitching that 6 LPs and some 7"s cost 20 to ship. Jesus.

Does anyone know if all the vinyls come with an instant download?

NickIsI 03/09/12 01:37 PM
Just to prove my point, here is a mock order from the Bridge 9 store that includes 6 LPs and some 7"s:



As you can see, to ship the whole order Media Mail, I am only charged $5.60. If USPS (First Class or Priority) is chosen, then it changes to $15.

If you are all claiming that my original quarrel is unreasonable, please explain how Bridge 9 can send this for $5.60 but P+P can't.

Different shipping policies for different labels, that's all. You try another label, you might get charged $30. A lot of it depends on how mailorder works.
