THANKS SO MUCH for letting us know this!!

i also ordered Pink Floyd-Wish You Were Here (i used to own it, but it got incredibly scratched up because i was a big idiot and left laying around all the time). but they said there's no tracking information for it... whats that mean?

It has also appeared on Amazon UK (at a ridiculous price) - check out the difference between that one and play.com:

Although I'm not crazy about the peace sign cover, I think that it would be a lot worse if there was a picture of the band on the cover. 90% of the time I think album covers with a picture of the band on them look really stupid and unoriginal. I only think it really works with solo artists/rappers.

Smashing Pumpkins' "Gish" had them on the cover, but they made it work.

Weezer made it work twice.

EDIT: Why would anyone preorder it for $19? That is just nuts.

If there's no delay for the release in Europe, my odds are pretty good, two/three weeks, a month at most

I really love STP, but I don't love them enough to pay 19 dollars + shipping for their album.

That's ridiculous and I hope Amazon decides to lower the price by about 7 dollars.

That's how much I'd pay for a deluxe edition.

It's nothing compared to how much Amazon.co.uk is charging for it at 18 pounds which equals to almost 30 dollars.

Geez, I hadn't even looked at the UK Amazon site. That's nuts. Although I think Amazon has it so if the price goes down before the pre-order ships out, they'll charge you the lesser price.

Hopefully. I'm definitely going to shop around, maybe Target and Best Buy. $18 dollars for a CD and they wonder why everybody just downloads them for free....
