GB film score CD almost gone!

Posted on March 15, 2006

Ryan LeClair emailed me just now - apparently when he and his father went to order their copy of the Elmer Bernstein Ghostbusters film score, they were told by Var�se Sarabande customer service that they were down to ten copies remaining. So if you didn’t get one already, let’s hope they decide to do a second run.

    This is looking very exciting! Let me know when you actually receive your copies in the mail! I listended to the samples and they sound really clean and crisp. What do you all think? I’ve been stuck in the middle of another Ghostbusters pre-order fiasco for 8 months and I’m too scared! :)

    Well, they start shipping tomorrow, so we should start hearing feedback pretty soon.

    Damn! I wish I could order it. Ah well, I’m hoping that they do a second run.

    Has anyone received a shipment confirmation e-mail yet? I ordered shortly after the “almost gone” news was posted, and I’m not sure whether I made the cut or not.

  5. castewar March 20, 2006 8:23 pm

    I haven’t yet, no.

    I would still keep trying to order the score until the site of the label officialy says they are “sold out”.

    the only thing i have gotten from them was a purchase confirmation, not really a shipping confirmation yet.

  8. Steven March 21, 2006 5:25 pm

    Thanks for the info, guys.

    I ordered my CD the second day it was on sale but haven’t got it yet or even a delivery confirmation? Anybody got theirs yet?

  10. SpendusWorks March 23, 2006 5:15 pm

    I ordered mine on the 15th…I too have not yet gotten a mail notifying me of delivery…I’ll notify as soon as I get one, though. :)

    Has anyone who ordered this received their copy yet?

  12. Roshangar March 24, 2006 6:23 pm

    Just got my shipment notification email. Woohoo!

  13. Andrew March 25, 2006 6:48 pm

    Still haven’t got my shipping confirmation.

  14. castewar March 27, 2006 11:52 am

    I just got my shipping confirmation today.

  15. Andrew March 28, 2006 1:22 pm

    I e-mailed them yesterday and this is what I got.

    “The shipping process commenced on that date for the more than a thousand orders that we received. You will receive an email when it ships.

    Thank you for your patience.

    I finally got my confirmation today.

  17. Paul Rudoff March 29, 2006 12:58 pm

    I e-mailed Varese Sarabande on 3/24 (to orders@vareseSarabande.com) and 3/28 (to orders@vareseSarabande.com, info@VareseSarabande.com, customerservice@VareseSarabande.com). I have yet to receive a reply to either message.

    They charged my card instantly when I placed the order on 3/8, but they let that charge expire on 3/13. So right now I’ve not been billed, and obviously we’re two weeks past the supposed shipping date still listed on the webpage (”CDs will begin shipping on March 16″).

    If I don’t hear something from them by the end of the week, I’ll give them a call on Monday and see what the heck is going on.

    By the way, Andrew, which address did you use that got you that reply from them?

  18. John C. March 29, 2006 3:10 pm

    Well, seems I’m one of the lucky ones. I recieved a confirmation e-mail earlier today and was surprised to discover that my package arrived this afternoon! Haven’t listened to the CD yet, but rest assured that I do have a copy, which probably means that others will soon recieve theirs.

  19. Andrew March 29, 2006 5:40 pm

    I got my confirmation today. The address I used was at the bottom of the order confirmation e-mail.

  20. daltysmilth March 29, 2006 6:45 pm

    My dad, who ordered the CD for me, said that he wrote an e-mail to Varese Sarabande, and they replied that they are shipping the last orders at the end of this week, so hopefully that means those of us who still don’t have our copy will have it by next week at the latest.

  21. SpendusWorks March 30, 2006 6:57 am

    It’s been 15 days since I ordered mine, and still no CD or order confirmation…I’m going to send them an e-mail right now. :(

  22. Germz March 30, 2006 9:22 am

    I got mine yesterday and I listened to it last night. It’s great. It was nice to hear the instrumentals from the old soundtrack mixed in there.

  23. SpendusWorks March 30, 2006 9:31 am

    I got a reply, and they said that my order was towards the end, but should be in the mail by next Tuesday.

  24. Steven March 30, 2006 1:15 pm

    Has anyone been told that their order WILL NOT ship? Any idea if such an e-mail will be going out?

  25. SpendusWorks March 30, 2006 8:59 pm

    I doubt they would do that…but then again, if they run out, who knows… :/

  26. Paul Rudoff April 1, 2006 1:52 pm

    I just got my Order Shipment confirmation e-mail today. YAY! I was getting mighty worried when they weren’t replying to my e-mails (they still haven’t, but it’s ok now).

  27. Steven April 3, 2006 6:08 pm

    Sweet! I just got my shipment confirmation e-mail. (I guess that the orders are being filled first come, first serve.)

    Thanks for all of the information, folks. I’m very glad to see that I made the order cutoff.

  28. SpendusWorks April 3, 2006 6:56 pm

    I also got my shipment confirmation today…earlier than they said I would.

  29. RayStantz April 4, 2006 11:29 am

    I live in West Sussex, Uk, and my copy turned up today.

    Its brilliant.

    Favourite track - Judgment day.
    (the music they play as ecto 1 crosses the bridge) Class!

  30. castewar April 5, 2006 11:28 am

    Mine arrived in the mail today - Hooray!

  31. Logo Lou April 5, 2006 3:50 pm

    I got my copy today, same day I got my copy of the Stripes score from amazon… eerie.

    The disc is very well put together. I hope they do another run for folks who missed out. It’s definitely worth getting.

  32. Andrew April 6, 2006 2:30 pm

    Got mine a couple days ago and it was well worth the wait. It is worth it.

  33. castewar April 6, 2006 6:01 pm

    Whoops - they spell it “Zool” in the track listings.

  34. SpendusWorks April 8, 2006 6:04 am

    Got mine in the mail on Friday. It’s already neatly catalogued on my iPod. :D

  35. Steven April 9, 2006 3:56 pm

    As I was leaving town for the weekend, I saw the UPS van at the end of my block. I got the driver’s attention, and was able to get him to give me the CD at the corner so I could get it before I skipped town.
