Both came out in February! WTF? That's how I got Fozzy's last album. It went from $17.99 to $5.99 a few months after release. Maybe it just wasn't selling? | |

- All but 1 FYE are closed in my state (RI). There used to be about a half dozen. There was one that was a mile from where I lived and I purposefully would not go there. I would actually drive 30 miles out of the way to Newbury Comics. The selection was terrible, the prices absurd, and the elitist and clueless teens that worked there put me over the edge. And what's with the constant pushing of magazine subscriptions in addition to reserving copies of things that will be for sale everywhere? I know they want to guarantee a sale (and take one away from their competition) but it's not like these are exclusive editions or anything. Target or Walmart will have Star Wars or Lady Gaga for sale too, and usually much cheaper. I have come to realize that FYE is good for the music of the masses. The currently hip and trendy is usually cheap there. But, the Metal is not.
Yeah, they always want to sign you up for something. It's annoying. What's worse, if they don't sign up a certain number of people in a given timeframe, they're reprimanded and can eventually be fired. The company is so out of touch. You know why clerks have a hard time selling subscriptions? Because no one wants them! Haha. | |
