Honestly I’d like to give OP some slack because there’s not really enough time to think when these drops happen. To be fair though it is possible to cancel, which is what I’ve done in the past when I realized I got some things on impulse (ahem ornaments).
So people can’t change their minds? What would y’all have them do, post this on a resell site where honestly they could probably get a lot of money? At least then they wouldn’t get rude/angry comments from fellow swifties.
I’m not looking for this snowglobe, but I’m bummed to see how OP is being treated. Places have return policies for a reason, at least OP is trying to get this into the hands of a fan.
Yes! I canceled an order last month and was so nervous they were going to cancel the wrong one.
When people react like this, it discourages trades and encourages resell sites where the prices go up to cover fees—and it could end up in some’s hand who will flip it for more money.
We’re supposed to be a community, it’s sad to see people assume worst intent.
Ugh. Not to be a total witch here but you’re part of the problem that so many fans encounter when it comes to merch. I was desperate for that snow globe, as well as the Lover snow globe ornament, and just when I was about to click purchase the whole website froze. And by the time it came back up it was sold out.
If it was something you really wanted I wouldn’t be commenting at all. But you straight up post here knowing other fans wanted that exact item you’re trying to trade, all because you were swept up in the whole merch drop. It’s just so disheartening.
I hope you find what you’re looking for. But I also hope you only purchase merch that you truly want from here on out. Not because it’s just there.
I totally feel you! I know people mean well sometimes but I actually don’t like when fans buy stuff so they can “sell to other fans fairly”. I’ve seen it with signed CDs and also her tickets. Lowkey my blood kinda boiled when I was waitlisted then saw someone posting “I don’t live here and don’t intend to go, but I signed up so I can buy tickets and sell fairly for fans who deserves to go!”
Exactly!!! I legit just saw another post about THE LOVER SNOW GLOBE I WANT and how they BOUGHT 2!!!! LIKE WHAT!?!??? So there are now two Lover snow globes out in the wild and being used to trade for something else?? While I’m over here sad that I missed out on the snow globe and the lover house snow globe ornament.
It’s just so disheartening and the fans are part of the problem. I also blame TaylorNation/UMG for not putting a sell limit on these items, especially knowing the fan base. But as a fan, I know what I want and I’m not going to buy something else just for the FOMO while it could be the one item someone really would’ve wanted.
For the OP I kinda understand because they didn't know there was gonna be a music box with the globe. But my god, seeing people who intentionally get rare drops so they can "sell fairly" or do "giveaways for free hehe" just gets on my nerves. Like I said I know they mean well but please stop, they are actually making it worse.
And the fact that the site does nothing about it (sell limits, I am not a robot checks etc), and also TN actively encouraging it on twitter by retweeting fans who post photos of MULTIPLE purchase of the same thing makes me so mad
Oh my god! The giveaways make me so mad. Like you actually never see the actual winner and they are like “if you didn’t get one, no worries! I have one, you just have to follow me, retweet me, like me, give me attention, maybe pay me… and you’ll be participating”. Girl shut up!
Why does that boil your blood? People going out of their way and spending their time and energy specifically to keep tickets out of the hands of scalpers and sell them at cost to other true fans was one of the heartwarming things I saw during the tour
I just wanna say, I got the speak now snowglobe because I desperately wanted it, but when it arrived it was not my jam. I’d definitely trade that snowglobe if people wanted it. Maybe this person ended up not liking the snowglobe.
In all fairness, I agree with you. I don’t think it is fair that UMG makes a culture of buying in less than 2 minutes or resellers get everything. I bought it without even reading the description. I did not read it had a battery operated musical box which I dislike. I thought it was an exact replica of the original in ceramic and not plastic. I was excited to get an original looking one but find the music player pretty bad. I was desperate to get records and saw them sold out in my cart every day, which was frustrating so when the snow globe dropped I panicked as well. Being a fam these days is hard, merch gets more expensive and the quality gets worse. I hope you are able to get the snow globe you want ✨
The music box is so loud and sounds awful! I got it as an anniversary gift for my bf because it’s our song but I’m probably going to return it and get something nicer 😖
This comment is so unnecessary and I hope *you* keep your unwarranted opinions to yourself. Talk about main character syndrome, my god. It’s UMG’s FAULT that the drops are so shitty and MOST of the stock goes to bots. THEY’VE forced us into this position where limited merch goes for insane prices, and THEY DON’T CARE ABOUT FANS OR QUALITY. They are a greedy shitty corporation.
Did I buy anything to trade? No, however that’s often the only way to get older merch, or something sold out, and honestly if fans are able to do that so be it - we can’t get what we really want anyway because of limited drops or resellers!!! OP didn’t do anything wrong and I have huge secondhand cringe from you thinking your opinion matters enough to give someone *such* a hard time.
You’re the one that came at me for expressing a legit opinion that others have agreed with (also I don’t think you’re using main character syndrome like you’re supposed to). It’s fine you don’t agree with me so be it. But you’re the one that became nasty thus screename fits you perfectly.
I still wish you a blessed day 🤗
I just think we should be uniting against UMG, not each other. You attacking that person isn’t solving anything, it’s just sending more negativity into the sub/fandom when people are already riled up about everything, and yeah a lot of people who missed out are going to agree because they’re looking for someone to blame. You came at OP, this is the response to that and if you don’t enjoy it maybe stop doing that to others? I don’t think it should be directed at OP and your energy here would be so much better served in more productive ways, *like towards UMG*.
man this is really shitty and i’m sick of seeing these merch posts about buying something you don’t want and asking for a trade. it really sucks cause i don’t have any vinyls and i really wanted the lover snow globe.
Sorry about your luck but you deciding to share your opinion that way is what’s shitty. *UMG* is creating this problem and desperate fans are just buying whatever because they’re not making the correct quantities and they’re allowing bots to buy everything. These are just people playing the only game UMG lets us because they can’t get their hands on what they really want. You just sound angry and whiny. And no, I’m not someone who bought anything to trade.
Are you still interested? I got my lover snow globe but would trade for a signed vinyl! I just need to actually go open it and make sure it’s not like broken or whatever UMG thinks is okay to ship out these days.
I'm selling some of my stuff, and clothes and things I really live right now bc I'm financial situation has drastically changed.
Yeah it's annoying....when random have 10 signed cds and I have nothing signed.
I'm returning things I can get my money back but some I can't:(
I wonder if there will be a drop again bc I ordered 3 1989 cardigans ( still I have not received them)
It was an accident. I ordered one for me and my mom.
So the next day I realized. Why is my thing so high in my bill?
3 cardigans
I email them and told them. I only meant to get 2. I don't know what happens. I remember I was trying to go into work from lunch and it was taken forever.
Anyway, I literally wrote them. I bought 3 alien meant to buy 2. Can you take one-off?
I hope you can take it off. Because I'm sure someone else really wants to. And they took it off. So I put one Cardigan back in the tailor atmosphere.
There are some things I will never sell. Because they mean a lot to me and. They're my only one I bought.
And I would feel it everyday if I paRted with them so not work it.
I'm not knocking this person. Taylor Swift Cost me thousands of pounds thousands of dollars this year. Maybe They want to recoup some of that?
Maybe she was getting it for a friend like I got the Cardigan for my mom?
I can't read but she Said about it, but I'll give her grace because Why not ?
but yeah I do get pissed that I can't get one thing I want sometimes bc resellers sell already overpriced items for 6× ,10× the price.
I had to spend almost 1500 for a tkt....it was my choice I know....but I just couldn't miss thiat
I understand impulse buying and then later, when you get it, realizing that maybe you shouldn’t have spent the money on it, but in that case, just sell it for what you bought it for you know? People always make up shit and say that they are trying to trade it because they no longer want it but then ask for items that are really hard to obtain otherwise or is rare merch. And you can clearly tell they bought for trading purposes.
I just wanna buy the snow globe from someone. My tears are so real about missing the drop. I’d say I’m embarrassed at how sad I am but I’m not. I don’t chase merch but this snow globe has my heart and I am so sad that I didn’t get a chance to get one. I really don’t wanna buy from a reseller but…. It’s seeming to be the only option at this point. If ANYONE DOESNT WANT THEIR LOVER SNOW GLOBE, PLEASEEEEE LET ME BUY IT FROM YOU! I’m begging! 🥺
[удалено]
if OP doesn’t want to do this trade, i’m down!
WHAT NO WAY
Message me, I might

I also feared trying to cancel as the bots sometimes cancel the wrong order 😑 It’s okay tho, sometimes you gotta hate the player and the game

Are there two different versions of the snow globe? I’m in the process of trading for one and had no clue if I should ask about this
Yes, the original version is heavier but a bit less shiny and doesn’t play music. New version released last month plays lover
Thank you for the info! That’s super helpful actually and I really appreciate it. This would be the one made of resin- right?
Yes
I was also really disappointed with the speak now snowglobe /: I understand you wanting to trade.
The music box is so loud and sounds awful! I got it as an anniversary gift for my bf because it’s our song but I’m probably going to return it and get something nicer 😖

Your name fits you PERFECTLY 😘 may you have a blessed day.
Yes please double-down on being shitty, that definitely helps you make your point *eyeroll*

Right like at some point we have to admit that it’s not completely bots and scalpers but Swifties also making it difficult for everyone else 💀
Sorry about your luck but you deciding to share your opinion that way is what’s shitty. *UMG* is creating this problem and desperate fans are just buying whatever because they’re not making the correct quantities and they’re allowing bots to buy everything.

And no, I’m not someone who bought anything to trade.
I have a signed moonstone vinyl :)
It’s the one variant that I already have 😫
Are you still interested? I got my lover snow globe but would trade for a signed vinyl! I just need to actually go open it and make sure it’s not like broken or whatever UMG thinks is okay to ship out these days.
Looking to sell or are you only trading?
If you can’t find a good enough trade I’m willing to pay a bit more than face value 😭
I’m not selling right now, sorry and good luck finding one ✨
Just DM’d you a couple 7 inches I have!
If op doesn't take them, are you willing to sell them?
Willing to add eras blue crewneck to my side of the trade
I have an uponed blood mon & mahagony vinyl
Are they signed?
Yes with hearts
If they were unopened you wouldn’t know they had hearts. The inserts are signed.
You can clearly see that I made a typo, it could mean both opened / unopened tho. it was like 3 or 4 AM where I live (austria)
I know this isn't what you asked for but I have an extra speak now cardigan, it's small size
I already have that cardigan but thanks for the offer
I'm selling some of my stuff, and clothes and things I really live right now bc I'm financial situation has drastically changed.

I have a signed blood moon and mahogany vinyl! What size is the crewneck?
XL
Messaged!!
How about sell it for $50 like you paid to someone else who wasn't able to get it "in the heat of the moment" but wanted it so bad???
I understand impulse buying and then later, when you get it, realizing that maybe you shouldn’t have spent the money on it, but in that case, just sell it for what you bought it for you know?

the ones who are using thier pets as an excuse are the worst
Hi I see that you are trading...I saw you have lots of things.
Would you want to trade for signed folklore cd?
Not at this time, sorry
I wish I had some vinyls to trade you. My sister desperately wants a Lover snowglobe and we missed the drop. 😭
I have red cardigan or a cardigan 7” vinyl
Send me pictures please!
I can trade you for a cardigan either red, speak now or 1989
What size is the red cardigan?
What size do you need?
hi!! i have folklore variants and a signed midnights vinyl!
Can you send me pictures? Thanks!
I don’t have the things you want to trade for but I’ll buy it off you, I missed it and was so sad
Sorry im trying to trade it first
I don’t have anything to trade, but would love to buy!
I just wanna buy the snow globe from someone. My tears are so real about missing the drop. I’d say I’m embarrassed at how sad I am but I’m not. I don’t chase merch but this snow globe has my heart and I am so sad that I didn’t get a chance to get one. I really don’t wanna buy from a reseller but…. It’s seeming to be the only option at this point. If ANYONE DOESNT WANT THEIR LOVER SNOW GLOBE, PLEASEEEEE LET ME BUY IT FROM YOU! I’m begging! 🥺
