So when is Chinese D going to be appearing on the shelves at Target and shit? If the deal is done, why wait?

It's available for order through any outlet at this time. If any chain has interest in the record (in the US) it will be sitting in their back room waiting to be stocked on shelves tomorrow.

Plenty of people could've bought it at Best Buy. Uni chose to not promote the record properly. So until that changes, I wouldn't keep up hope. Not trying to be negative, but the problem lies with Uni not with where you can find the album.

indeed, the only thing promoting this record now is the SA tour and nothing more.
I think it wasn't just Universal's fault. but a lot of people involved.

to not promote this album was a bad risk and they blew it with that.
There were proper tools to promote it but some people just decided not to persue them.

I just went into a Target here in CT and there were no signs of Chinese Democracy.

Definitly, and people need to realise that.

Right. As previously started; if the buyers for those stores have interest in the record, you'll see it there. If they don't, you won't.

And I cannot stress enough; Chinese Democracy being available anywhere other than Best Buy is not the key to unlocking album sales.

I realize that.  I was just stating that I checked out a Target store today and there was no sign of Chinese Democracy. I realize the sales wouldn't see a spike, but it's not a good sign that stores now CAN carry the album and aren't. I mean, that's a major band with a major release on a major label.  Stores usually stock albums that fall under those categories.

Of course it's only the first day and I only checked one store, so who knows what will transpire.

The point I'm making is that Chinese is now a catalog release. So it's not something that they would order unless they had a reason to. For example, when MJ passed away, everyone stocked up on Bad, Thriller, Number Ones, etc. That's the status CD is in for order with these places.  If there were a reason to order it, they would. If a reason eventually happens, they will then.

I see what you're saying.  So in essence, even though the Best Buy exclusive is technically over, if other stores decide not to order copies of CD, all things stay the same.  Maybe they'll get some copies in if/when they tour the US?

Exactly. Let's say the US tour starts around September as Frank hinted. If it's any sort of success or a single is released and get played alot, then places like Target, Wal-Mart, etc would probably order up copies and have them on hand on their regular stock.
