I've ordered for hundreds of pounds from warpmart and today got my first freebie (Richard Devines 'lipswitch' ep on vinyl, which I already have on cd).
not complaining though! warpmart are really reliable.
I'm curious: what freebies have people gotten?

I haven't got any freebies, cuz I've never ordered. Which means posting in this topic makes no sense. BUT, there are tons of topix on freebies from warpmart. Search freebees, free, freebies in the search, and voila?
Muahahahahahahahahhahaha. Now I'm just being rediculous!

when I ordered the two latest prefuse 73 releases on cd, they made a mistake and sent me the cd and vinyl version of "the 92 vs 02 collection." so I e-mailed warpmart, and not only did they allow me to keep the "12, but they sent me the On Single and Music Is Rotted One Note along with Vocal Studies And Uprock Narratives...

see, i'd be ordering from warp like crazy if i lived in the UK. but i don't, and it's so much easier to get it from BN.com (Barnes & Noble) where they have 90% of what i want at excellent prices ($12-13!) and FREE shipping!
i keep trying to think of excuses to buy from warpmart, but everytime i come up with something i want that BN.com doesn't have, warp doesn't have it either. they only sell one vsnares album! and the donkey rhubarb ep isn't sold there either.

I've never ever ever ever ever had a freebie from Warp. Grrr.
Postcards and stickers don't really count, do they? Cos they sort of say, don't they, "Preorders get stickers" and blahblah...
Grrr.

*looks up* wow i sure am a bitch dude!
anyway, i received my 1st ever warpmart order today. pros: extremely fast international shipping (4 business days!), items in good condition (though both copies of LFO's 'frequencies' came unwrapped; the two copies of plaid 'spokes' are in plastic), received everything i paid for (including bonus mix cd for plaid) and in the right format
cons: the only freebies i received despite showing them how many warp tracks i've played on my radio show (hundreds by now) were 3 promotional postcards! they didn't reply to my email so maybe they didn't even take the dj thing into consideration, but i know people who've gotten free stuff w/o saying anything so i really think it's a "luck of the draw" type situation.
so in conclusion i'm not going to order from warpmart much except when i want something out of print in the US or exclusive to warpmart. most everything is available for 1/2 to 1/3 the price from bn.com so it may be a year or two before i order from warpmart unless they get smart (shop smart, shop s-mart) and set up a US warpmart (told them this in my email too).

and yeah, agreed: might as well order only if it's exclusive or otherwise unavailable elsewhere. i've gotten the 'anti' and 'cichlisuite' EPs from warpmart for that very reason, and the price was either the same or equal to what i would pay for them domestically if they were anywhere to be found.

people outside the UK never get freebies besides postcards and stickers.....that is because shipping rates cost them too much

i wrote above that i got the 'spokes' bonus mix cd, which is really why i ordered, but i was just observing that warpmart aren't always generous w/ random free items.. maybe things have changed

sorry. yeah, i know you received it in the post. i wanted to know if the order confirmation e-mail they sent out listed the bonus CD on it or not. mine just had the following: warp1** (catalogue number) Plaid 'Spokes' 1 x 5" CD listed in it, but i ordered it when it was still apparently shipping with the bonus mix, so i'm just wanting to know if that will be the case or not.

WARPCD114 : Plaid : Spokes [Warp] 2 * [1 * 5" Compact Disc] @ GBP 10.99 each
no mention of the bonus. but it says on the site that ALL orders will include it (not just preorders), so you should be receiving it.

where did you get that idea..?
I certainly do not live in the UK.
since then I have gotten more freebies - a Lexoleum cd and just a few weeks ago I got a piece of vinyl with my NMB Allstars 12".
I think I have found what it is (it is completely white label, but there is a small catalogue nr. scratched in the vinyl).. can't remember at the moment though. :)

interesting fact: the copy of 'twoism' which i bought at the local HMV came with not one but (accidentally) 2 BOC stickers in it, even though those were apparently included only with direct Warpmart orders.

this reminds me. a friend of mine bought a copy of the 'donkey rhubarb' EP at some store somewhere, and as it turns out, it could very well be the only existing copy which has a misprint of some goth-y doom-metal band on the reverse side of the insert. i wonder how much that would fetch on ebay.

WARP includes freebees when there is room and it won't send the weight into a different postal class (on both domestic and international orders). It also depends on the mood of the person fulfilling your order.

Travis, you were fucking lucky - 4 business days? The post's gone to shit recently, it used to be 4 days to the US and back (I used to write to a friend regularly), but recently it'd been six, seven, sometimes nine days for a package, either way. I had some CD-r from my label to send to American, which were going on sale at a live show. I sent them nine days in advance, and they still didn't arrive on time. Fucking stupid.
Coincidence of the day: I ordered my first package from Warpmart today (the three Æ EPs they had in stock that I didn't have).

i received an order about a month ago...but they mixed up two cd's so i mailed them to ask if we could exchange the cd's and they told me to send them the wrong one and they'll send me the right one...it's been like 2 weeks now since i sent the wrong one back and i still havent received the right one - if i knew this i'd at least kept the wrong one .)

I received my last order.
They forgot my pre-order gubbins though! :(
e-mailed and they said sorry and it's on the way. I get such a small amount of freebies it's not funny. I order almost every week and get stickers all the time. I've had one 12" and one CD and that's it. Man that's harsh. I'd have though regulars would get more.

instead of ordering it every week do it once per month - its silly but its going to look like a bigger order so you should get more freebies

They're big orders anyway. I do try and do them all at teh beginning of the month but sometimes things aren't for pre-order or I don't know they're coming out or come in stock. I should be more controlled.

customers like yourself make a big difference to the shop, and without you we wouldn't be able to keep going.
so - thanks :) best
