    BUT... now we dont have the option to buy multiple cds of our choice together? :( there's just the one box set, but that doesnt give you an option to choose which ones and how many you want.

    im lacking on a few hard copies of some cds (i have them all in some form though), but i was waiting for the bear to come out so i could just get caught up all at once! shipping to canada, you know, not always so great...which is why i just bought most of them on itunes in the first place.

    and now i can't. sigh. i guess ill just wait until i see them again (who knows when THAT will happen though) and then ill buy them all???

    and thanks to this new store, it costs the same to ship the cd to me as it does for the actual cd. this sucks.

    i want the old store back. :(

    since i'm not over the top crazy about the new merch shirts and stuff i'll never cough up just as much for shipping as for the stuff itself...as for the new cd (which you can pre order now, btw) i'll wait til they come around on tour and save 9 bucks or whatever insane fee it is. i can wait.

    I hear you Malary.

    Shipping to Canada sucks when you're already paying an arm and leg just to ship it then you have to pay duty on top of everything. Ugh! Of course you know a good way to solve this problem, right? ROAD TRIP!!

    : )

    i found a solution!

    aside from the cd (because i just cant not preorder it) that i already bought, lol, im going to either wait until i see a show (probably unlikely until TRB...), or one of my friends do (i have quite a few sk6 fan friends in the states) and ill get them to pick me up some stuff and have them mail it to me! ive done that before with hanson merch (hanson's website is worse) and it worked beautifully with paypal and i saved so much. :D

    Is anyone ordering the pre-oder CD that's available in the store? Or should I wait? I'm assuming they're going to announce it...

    I am so in love with the hoodie and really want one and (of course) want to pre-order the new cd as well!! I can't seem to figure out which size to order though since when I click on "sizing", there are several different types of hoodies listed and I don't know which kind the SK6ERS hoodie is. It would also be nice if they had a combo package with just the hoodie and "The Bear" cd. I might end up waiting to pick up the merch at a show as well. Has anyone here had any experience ordering from this company? I've obviously never dealt with them so please don't think I'm bashing them. Maybe I'm just a total nervous nellie when it comes to ordering online...I just notice some red flags. First, there is no phone number to call to speak to someone. Second, their return/exchange policy seems a bit user-unfriendly. Third, they have a c- rating with the Better Business Bureau. Like I said...I don't know this company at all so I'm not bashing them or saying they're not a good company...I'm just wondering if anyone else has had positive or negative experiences.

    malary you are not kidding about the Hanson site. I actually am not getting the SETB dvd cause, too me, it's such a rip off.
    I'm bummmed that online stores are, imo, over charging for stuff.

    im not getting any sk6ers clothes unless i see them in person, the sizing on that website is stupid and confusing!?

    haha and yeah, im not getting the SETB dvd either. such a rip off considering ive even seen most of it alot already? my best friend ordered it so ill just watch hers and call it a day. i also really want a hanson shirt but i just refuse to pay for more hanson shipping. ive wasted alot of money in the past on that website... :x like $50 total for the walk cd/dvd combo all because i wanted the tiny acoustic dvd and 3 songs that arent on the cd that was sold in canadian stores (i had the canadian version of the walk)...whoops?

    Hey! I'm brand new the SK6ers forums but wanted to say that I was also really surprised at the new shipping rates in the store. I bought the new hoodie and had I waited a week, could've ordered the Bear CD at the same time...

    And to the Hanson fans here - the shipping is totally scary on their site as well, I agree! It cost me $9 shipping for the SETB DVD/CD combo!

    i'm so glad that this thread exists, because now i know i'm not alone and i don't feel like a cheap-o lol.

    I wonder if the high shipping rates have something to do with how much that the bands have to pay for their services or the cut that they get. who knows...either way i ain't paying anymore...their loss lol.

    Yeah the $9 doesn't sound so, so bad but it's a third of the cost of the price of the DVD. Which actually costs, what, $4 to send? I feel bad for international fans on h.net. The shipping prices are nuts!

    I don't know why band websites have gotten so scary with shipping costs. I remember loving how fair the prices were on this site not too long ago!

    Haha! h.net scares all of us and makes us pessimistic about shipping! But you're right, the shipping on this site was really cheap AND fast. And I used to get little personalized notes telling me about concerts in my area, which I totally loved!

    i didnt get any of those, probably because there never was any concerts in my area. how sad.
