Blue Sky Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Just wondering how many people received a copy of the limited edition book/EP this week, when they only ordered a digital download?? Did you think you got lucky?? Well, yes, maybe, but to be honest, you received the book in error, and there has been some discussion about what to do here: http://www.mikafanclub.com/forums/showpost.php?p=2347945&postcount=264 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always thinking... For the record, here's my post that BS linked to: A note about the EP/Book -- we've discovered that a lot of people have received a copy in error, especially those who ordered the digital version may have gotten a copy of the actual EP/book (like I did!). If you did get one of those copies by mistake, it would be very nice of you to contact Sandbag and let them know. They may want you to return that copy, since the book is limited edition -- and they will reimburse you for the return postage. The email address to contact is: orders@sandbag.uk.com Thanks!

I actually ordered (and paid) for them on presale:biggrin2:. Although as we know, the presale was a bit weird as in I got the EP over a week later than I could have bought it at the gigs, and saved myself the postage costs . Anyway this is just old news but I felt like making the joke. Btw BS, I just now noticed your custom title. Fantastic . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAK1 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I saw someone report this a couple of weeks ago, and they told Sandbag, who didn't seem bothered about it at the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Ana~ Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I think it's unfair. I got my one and only EP I ordered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Sky Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 Well mine was unfair too...I ordered 5 EPs and one download. According to the order numbers on the packages, I got 1 book for the download :blink:and 1 book for the EP (instead of 5!!!) So I can't actually say I am lucky cuz I am three short... Anyway, sandbag is going to be well sick of emails from Mika's fan club soon, if they aren't already.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mari62 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I had ordered 1 EP/ Book and 1 digital version and got 2 EP/Books. Just emailed Sandbag, asking whether I shall return it to the address on the envelope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mari62 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 would be like so much cheaper to send it to Laura yes, but I don't think thats the best thing to do, she'll probably get her copy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, sandbag is going to be well sick of emails from Mika's fan club soon, if they aren't already.... Well, Sandbag (or should I say, Helen?) have been very nice all along, the poor woman was lovely, BUT if they had been organised and competent in the first place, they wouldn't have received any emails from Mika fans at all because both tickets and EP sales would have been dealt with in the right way. They only have themselves to blame if they are now flooded with queries, really. They were a total shambles, and a prime example of inefficiency and an utterly badly run business. Very bad choice indeed. I hope that Mika management make a note of this for future sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's absolutely hilarious . Why "us" though? Mika. Sandbag. Them. (Sorry for turning up ) I think it's unfair. I got my one and only EP I ordered. I want a free EP as well.

The tickets were bad enough, but eventually worked out in the end, but this seems like it's not going to work out quite the same way. I can't believe how they messed this up!

nikjass Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I got what I ordered but what a mess they have in their hands did they realise their mistakes? or did honest MFCers informed them of their mistakes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iadoremika Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I got two books whenn I only ordered one. I emailed Sandbag and they send to send it back and that they would reimburse my account. Too bad, I was really hoping to give it away to someone on here who hasn't had a chance to purchase one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I second this. There has to be a better alternative. I was thinking this.The tickets were bad enough, but eventually worked out in the end, but this seems like it's not going to work out quite the same way. I can't believe how they messed this up! Especially worrying given how limited of a release this EP is. There aren't exactly five million spare copies floating around the world. I got what I ordered but what a mess they have in their hands did they realise their mistakes? or did honest MFCers informed them of their mistakes? I don't know for sure, but I'm getting the sense that they only realized their mistake when MFCers started contacting them and explaining they'd received extra copies in error.

Miro Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I hope that Mika management make a note of this for future sales. I was thinking the same too. It would be really horrible if that will be the case everytime we purchase something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kata Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I was thinking the same too. It would be really horrible if that will be the case everytime we purchase something I'm not gonna buy anything from sandwich ever again. They can stick their codes up the body part they've been sitting on all this time, I'm not even gonna bother using them if it's these morons we're dealing with again They may be ever so nice and all, but there is a limit to how much you can eff customers around. I ordered 10 tickets that they guaranteed I would have delivered at home two weeks prior to the gigs. I had none delivered at my address at all I think they should send me a free EP instead of stealing one from me to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
