Just got an email saying my order (cd + vinyl at the wrong, reduced price) has been dispatched. Why do I somehow think Roger had a good laugh at whoever screwed up and then said “not my problem but don’t you dare make it theirs?”  |

Roger is all class; when he gave us 'the lot', he wore the blame for early production issues. I wouldn't be surprised if he said exactly your words. |

It's a nice recording. Bit of a screamer in the crowd at some shows in the left speaker, but I'm enjoying this a lot.

Just got an email saying my order (cd + vinyl at the wrong, reduced price) has been dispatched. Why do I somehow think Roger had a good laugh at whoever screwed up and then said “not my problem but don’t you dare make it theirs?” Mine was shipped at the reduced price as well it seems. So that's nice. What bugs me though (but not surprises to be honest) is that again I got VAT charged (UK to EU) at customs, while the invoice from Queenonline/Universal said they already charged VAT ("VAT included (Netherlands) €6.23 (21%)"), so nothing has changed compared to the last time I ordered. See discussion here ( queenchat.boards.net/thread/3566/double-charged-queenonline-citizens-realizes ) for more clearance and explanation why Queenonline/Universal is incorrectly charging double VAT for EU customers and why we should all complain en masse about this. What bugs me additionally is that I paid the reduced price for the CD/LP combo (€18.49, incl delivery charge €35.89), but it seems I got charged for VAT at customs for the higher price. I had to pay €25,09 VAT at customs for an order of €35.89 incl delivery. That can only be if Queenonline/Universal has set the higher value on my package instead of the price that I actually paid..... Really, they're screwing up again massively! |

Value and price are not the same thing.

Must be even higher than the standard price of the bundle then... I recently ordered the bundle for Muse's new album, which costed, incl. shipment, about 65 euros. VAT I had to pay wad only €14,- Mine has not arrived at customs yet, but certainly VAT was included on the order. Let's wait what they will come up with. |

I've been waiting for this since the day it was announced. Just received an email saying that my copy has been shipped as well... 7-10 working days 'til it's here (probably more because of the customs declaration). The weeks just get longer and longer, but the thrill of getting something new.. Oh, how I love this feeling!!  |

The record company sells product to a shop for a fixed price. If that shop sells the product at a discount, that has no effect on the record company. So, who owns the QOL shop? QPL, last I checked. In which case, RT is absolutely swallowing this error. |
