They have sent me emails from time to time to confirm that I still want the CD. I paid 12 bucks for it now it is listed for 45 bucks but temporarily out of stock. What gives?

Sounds to me like a company that didn't actually have it in their possession and now can't find it to fill the order.
Was it supposed to be fulfilled by Amazon? Prime?KEF Q50 mains, M&K center, Boston Acoustics surround, Marantz SR6007 pre, Emotiva UPA-700, Pioneer DV-46AV, Samsung BD-j7500, Sunfire HRS12 subwoofer -
My guess is that it was depressing.

So does Amazon wait til they get the item in stock before charging for the $12.00 or has Amazon already taken the $12.00 from your account when you placed the order? I was thinking they wait til the item is in stock.

You are getting me worried now. I ordered a couple of SACDs from amazon (seller is zooverstocks or something like that). Its supposed to come from the UK. Hmmm. Hopefully it comes.
On the related note, My Dire Straits Brothers in arms SACD I ordered from another seller is out for delivery.

This happens all the time. I've had it happen a few times with rarer vinyl that is low stock or out of stock/ends up being backordered. With vinyl it sometimes means it's waiting on repress and may or may not even fill. I've been waiting on a Mofi Natalie Merchant Tigerlily.
Your purchase price is honored as long as you keep telling them yes, you still want it. Annoying if it's something you really want. If it's cheaper when it becomes available, you get the lesser price. Cancel the order any time you like if you prefer not to wait.
Nothing to be worried over. You'll never lose your money.I disabled signatures. -
TRJ, I've ordered stuff from the U.K. before. Once it's shipped, it may sit in Customs here in the States for 2-3 weeks or more. Did you get tracking on it?

I have 3 sellers on agon who have 10k of mine in their pockets. 2 of them aint even gotten back to me with any kind of message in nearly 2 weeks!

The only items I have had issues with delivery from Amazon has been music. They made right each time however.Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant

No tracking number. It just says shipped via royal mail. Its just been about 10 days though. The orders are for Dark Side of the moon SACD and Led zeppelin Remasters. I am just getting more impatient because I got my first taste of SACD with Dire Straits today.

My first step would be to call customer service. In my experience their customer service is pretty good, they may be able to give you more information on the subject than the Polk audio forum may be able to.2 channel:

Not worried, just thought it was odd taking so long and quite a few "you still really want this?" emails

I ordered an LP for my girlfriend for Christmas, it didn't state it was coming from the uk. Needless to say it didn't get here in time. Kind of silly it asks if you still want it lol2 channel:
