Limited Edition Items Who Supposedly Would Not Be on Slaw Again but They Are Brought Back
Post by FearlessStarlight on Jul 24, 2021 23:02:53 GMT -5I got the "picture me in the trees" shirt and box. The copyrights are horrendous, there's no need for a copyright to be that big on anything, it turned me off for some of these items. I wanted the bracelet until I saw it was just the copyright instead of the lyric it was tagged under. Disappointing tbh. | |

I love this new stuff but I can't afford to get anything this time around. With any luck there will be overstock and it'll go on sale at christmas! I love the die for you in secret hoodie and the the auroras and sad prose journal (that's already sold out). The only thing I'm miffed about is that they made more copies of the white "meet me behind the mall" record after I already bought it on eBay (for over $100 might I add, oh well, live and learn). I like a lot of the designs too like the black and gold theme and the embroidery on some of the sweaters. I was able to buy some things but not everything that I wanted. I literally have no more money to spend. I cannot stand when they release limited time merch. It's highly unfair for fans who can't afford to buy it right at the time that it's available. I'm trying to remember from the past but I think they often bring back limited time merchandise later on, don't they? I'm sure they have leftover extra stock for the "limited edition" merch from April for 'FEARLESS (Taylor's Version)', but they haven't brought it back yet. Other than the day following the few limited time releases where they had everything available at once. They must be bringing it back at one point. I don't feel as bad about this release of merchandise because I'm trying to be hopeful that this 'Folklore' anniversary merch will be brought back. Or moreso that the Canadian Online Store may get extra stock of it. The 'Universal Music Canada' Online Store has had literally every shirt released through the "limited time" releases in April for the last month or so. And almost all of the sizes say they are available for the t-shirts. They are "In Stock" too, so there would be no ridiculous pre-order wait like they often have. I'm trying to be hopeful that they will also get merch from this 'Folklore' anniversary collection. Even if it were just the clothing items, that's what I'd want. A few of the shirts and possibly the sweatpants. That shocked me when I saw they had the rarest grey vinyl record (that you just bought) in stock again. I'm pretty sure it was not specially made or restocked for this occasion. Especially how long it is taking vinyl records to be made right now (it's so slow). I think it was just extra stock they had somewhere. I have no idea why they held it back though. And why bring it back now? In December, when they brought back the supposedly "limited edition" vinyl records, every edition came back except for the rarest grey "Meet Me Behind The Mall" edition. So I assumed they must've had none left. I have no idea why they seemed secretive with it too and if it was to do with the cover picture and 'Target' selling a vinyl record with the same cover picture. Then all of a sudden, the grey vinyl record is back seven or eight months later?? Where were they all? And why were they not already brought back and sold before now? I was surprised they had a few of the different editions in CD format too. I would've thought they had sold and gotten rid of them all. I'm sorry about you buying the vinyl record recently...Has it been shipped to you yet? Or you received it? I guess you can't really say you don't want it anymore because you found it cheaper somewhere else, as I think it would cost you return shipping. But if it wasn't shipped, I wouldn't hesitate to ask the seller to try to cancel the purchase. |

Posts: 45,579 | Post by TaylorSwiftFan on Jul 25, 2021 1:26:04 GMT -5 psssssst TaylorSwiftFan they still have some of the items that are sold out in the us store on the Canadian store.... I saw that. I can't handle the Canadian Online Store because they absolutely suck and have bad pre-order timelines and lies about when things will finally ship. But I was forced to use them for one small order of merch from this new album anniversary collection. It included some of the things that had sold out quickly on the U.S. Online Store soon after it was all released to the online stores. It's frustrating how they allowed things to sell out, making people like me panic and buying it from a different international online store that still had it available. Then they restocked everything later on on the U.S. Online Store.....It does cost more to order from the Canadian Online Store with shipping and taxes, but oh well I guess. I can use their website to my advantage sometimes too as I can place an order with my banking account even if I don't necessarily have that exact amount in there at that time, and it would be charged a few days later. I am very shocked that the Australian Online Store got merch for once on its website. I think almost every international online store got this merch this time (and all of it, not just some of it) - U.S., U.K., Canada, Germany, and Australia. But some of the prices for the items after being converted on the Australian Online Store were insane to me. I think it said like $70 AUD just for the hat!! And $80 AUD for just the box!! |

I wouldn't be shocked if everything showed back up at Christmas so she could have a big sale (who knows, maybe they'll bring back 13 days of Taylor sales). Yeah, I was shocked when they brought it back too. Maybe they ordered the same amount at release but it took them longer to produce it so they held it back for the one year. If I had known they were coming back I would of held of. I'm not going to bother returning it to the seller on eBay now though. I think I got it back in March or April so it would be more of a hassle than it's worth. I guess with the Taylor store patience is virtue. Who knows, if I wait maybe they will bring back the 12" cardigan records that I'm missing. That'll be nice. |

I can't say I've ever ordered from the Canadian store, Taylor's store just looks so much more professional and typically has all of items in stock where the Canadian store is more touch and go. I sometimes look there to see if they have stuff that Tay's store has sold out of but I've never gotten anything from there. The price hikes are upsetting! I found our store to be pretty on par but if I was in Australia I probably just wouldn't buy Tay's merch cause $70 for a hat is ridiculous. |

Because they said in the item description that 13,000 were made. And they didn't sell out before it was taken down from the website. So they must have some left over. I'm not sure about the other white and gold vinyl records but I would think they had to have some extra made for replacements. I'm surprised they haven't really brought them back either. But they brought back some CDs and the "Meet Me Behind The Mall" vinyl record two days ago (which I'm pretty sure would have just been small left overs). So I would think they might've brought back the 'Cardigan' music items too if they had any left. I'm just so confused by their decisions on when to bring stuff back. It seems so random and you never really know what stock they have. You never know if they still have some stuff kept back or if they've had more made or what. |

I found our store to be pretty on par but if I was in Australia I probably just wouldn't buy Tay's merch cause $70 for a hat is ridiculous. I've ordered from the Canadian Online Store a few times (or actually the 'Universal Music Canada' Online Store a few times) and they've been terrible most times. I think they've tried to improve because they used to be really bad late last year. They were pretty bad earlier this year too. I haven't ordered from them a lot of times as most of my orders have been from the U.S. Online Store. I find it frustrating how the Canadian Online Store charges both tax AND shipping. The 'Universal Music Canada' Online Store offers free shipping for orders $50+ CAD, which is great, but it doesn't often or always get what the Canadian Online Store does. Even though they both ship from the exact same warehouse I'm pretty sure. It makes no sense to me why the Canadian Online Store cannot offer free shipping. Taxes and shipping costs is one reason why I don't order from it often, because it actually ends up costing more paying for tax and shipping within Canada as compared to paying just high shipping from the U.S. Online Store. But a big reason why I don't is that their customer service is absolutely terrible (most times) and their shipping times are ridiculously slow. I can get pretty much everything faster from the U.S. Online Store in the time that it takes to travel internationally (which has been a snail pace for a lot of my orders up until earlier this year). The Canadian Online Store(s) lie constantly about expected shipping times. They put up expected shipping times in the item descriptions, only for them to continually push them further into the future. And for one order or item in the past, they just stopped emailing about delays on the item or order, which is extremely unprofessional. I had just gotten so fed up with them. I said I'd never order from them again, but thanks to the U.S. Online Store having things sold out, I was worried and ordered a few things from the Canadian Online Store where items were still in stock, and then they restocked them on the main online store. The expected shipping date is September 1st, so we'll see how that goes... I'm confused by their shipping times on all of the online stores. The U.K. Online Store has dates of August something for pretty much every item from this current collection, while the Canadian Online Store has September 1st. It's sad that the U.K. is expected to get it quicker than Canada lol. |

The U.S. Online Store has really weird shipping times. The box I think said 10 or 12 weeks, which goes into October I believe. They've had weird shipping times lately so I don't think many of the ones for this collection are accurate. Items from the "Just A Summer Thing" collection shipped a lot sooner than their expected shipping times said.| TaylorSwiftFan "What died didn't stay dead, you're alive you're alive in my head..." Posts: 45,579 | Post by TaylorSwiftFan on Jul 26, 2021 17:55:12 GMT -5I meant to post this earlier when I saw Taylor Nation's' tweet post but I forgot. They apparently have decided to keep the "Folklore Album Anniversary" collection on the online store(s). But who knows for how long. I hope it is until it sells out. This is good but it's frustrating they did this and call it "limited edition" merch and make people think this stuff won't be available past today, only for it to be available for longer. |

Posts: 45,579 | Post by TaylorSwiftFan on Aug 20, 2021 14:03:25 GMT -5There's apparently a few new pieces of merchandise (clothing) being sold exclusively at 'Urban Outfitters' in store and to be online (hopefully soon). People are also saying there's a few free gifts like a tote bag, bandana, and poster. I will share pictures here once the items have been put online. |

Posts: 45,579 | Post by TaylorSwiftFan on Aug 21, 2021 16:15:31 GMT -5 I was hoping the Urban collection would be like more of a fashion collar than merch I'm shocked but relieved that there are only three clothing items. It would've been cool if they maybe had a few smaller items. The bandana and stuff are free gifts (who knows if they'll be available online) but it would've been cool if they had some non-clothing items like the bandana for sale. It's interesting why they chose brown and white colors for the clothing too. Some people said online it's more like 'Evermore' album colors. Poor 'Evermore' only got one drop of merch and that's it. And there was never some nice sale on it or a restock of it. I still wanted some of the clothing items from it but I wasn't able to get them before they sold out. And they never restocked it for some reason. Very confusing why 'Folklore' would get a few random new items as an exclusive from 'Urban Outfitters' when the album was released 13 months ago... |
