Yesterday I placed a pre-order for the KISS Love Gun boxed set in the Small Blue Planet site. This morning I received an order confirmation email. This afternoon I got this:

Yeah, I know the price was to good to be true, but what’s with the lame “discontinued” crap?!!! This is so not over yet SBP mofos…
Yep. And all the threads on the white board that dealt with ordering from them have been deleted. Somone just posted a thread mentioning that all the SmallBluePlanet threads had been deleted and, guess what, within 5 minutes that got deleted too. [img]graemlins/wonder.gif[/img]

Yeah, I know SS. Just to make sure, I started a new one.
Let's see how long this one lasts.... when I tried to respond to the last one they deleted it out from under me before I could even get my post up! [img]mad.gif[/img]
And it's GONE! [img]mad.gif[/img]
Took 'em 11 minutes this time. [img]graemlins/thumbs_down.gif[/img]

Laaaaaaaame, reeeal crippled! I had ordered two sets from them, and just got this e-mail as well! BOOOO, HISS, BOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Jon Goff's explanation:
"A handful of people tried to take advantage of what was most likely an honest mistake and now they are complaining about.
While complaints and random nonsense can be accepted on these message boards from time to time, every now and then they just have to go away. This is one of those situations."
Check out the "Conspiracy" thread b4 it gets deleted. You'll know what I'm aiming for SS. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Jon's response:
"No it has not been discontinued. The KISS: Love Gun boxed set is still going to be released."
EDIT: And someone at TMP must have realized it, because the thread has now been deleted!
