I wasn't serious, just a little angered because I never come across the promos like everyone else gets, so it's just me talking, I though you'd get it, evidently no.

I don't understand why they'd send you a promo and not me. I know they gave you one cause they know you sell your stuff and they want to do test marketing or promotion. Or maybe you don't sell the stuff. See they really don't know... I guess those who are richer and order more stuff get more benefits than those who bought all of our Warp stuff through the shops and therefore didn't need as much from their Warp-mart site. Rusty

i ordered 4 twelves, one double pack, one triple pack, two full length cds, two cd singles, two dj bags, a pair of slipmats, and three t-shirts. i've found that it's really not uncommon for me to find a promo or two bundled in with large orders. i suppose it's an idmer's version of a baker's dozen.. g.

I only ordered the AUTECHRE 12" & MIRA CALIX 10", and I got a AUTECHRE Amber promo CD (says "Promotional" on the disc) a WARP sampler CD, plus 4 different BLECH paper cut-outs... so I don't think it matters how much you order., just if you're lucky. ;)

I have a feeling that from here on out, Warp mailorder customers will be lucky to get diddly the way you all have been taking issue with their generosity or perceived lack thereof. Teep np: black flag - gimme gimme gimme

Exactly...we're getting these little extras for free. np- U-ziq's "Lunatic Harness" William O'Brien wobrien@edisto.cofc.edu (or) obrienw@juno.com Altered state: http://www.geocities.com/sunsetstrip/studio/3031/ "May the funk be with you" On Thu, 4 Sep 1997, Aran M. Parillo wrote:
