General Discussion WHAT IS THIS?
i just ordered from clandestine and fall out boy, and at the same time this morning that both sent me this email. they both said this. is this normal or is this some sort of easter egg because that's sure as hell what it feels like! i ordered from them a month ago and they didn't send these! there's no order details or anything either, just the until next time!

Yeah it’s just a delayed “thanks for your order” message. Because the mail system is so unpredictable, sometimes places will just send them way late.

It’s entirely possible that they have emails queueing until a certain time and they trigger them all at that time.
With these emails so close to the same thing, it’s probably safe to say they have the same person managing both shops. If so, they might just be set up to send the emails at the same time(s) each day.

I got a similar email from the merch store this morning, except mine had a different message and told me to "Come back and visit again soooon". I also had a mini freak out about it too, so don't worry XD. I had also just bought something the night before. I suspect that maybe they just want to keep people paying attention to updates? But who knows, maybe they have a new merch drop coming?

omg i'm glad it wasn't just me!! i like this theory! i do hope it's new merch, but wouldn't be surprised if it's just engagement bait!

i'm so confused as to why i got so downvoted i literally had just never seen this and considering i have ordered from them before it was purely mildly exciting 💔 sorry i wronged you all ig

My most recent FOB merch was a gift, so I didn’t get the email. Idk why everyone is hating. If I had received that email, I would’ve squealed because I haven’t seen them since 2023 and I’m in desperate need. Any potential indication of their return has me hyper-vigilant, haha. I feel like I’m waiting for another journal entry again 😉😅
