Internet shopping during computer class and LOOK WHAT'S SOLD OUT @haleyreinhart http://instagr.am/p/TJhYPhy9I5/

^ Deluxe edition - the Walmart exclusive - is not available from Walmart.com.

IMO giving Walmart the exclusive rights to the deluxe edition was foreshadowing of Interscope's soon to be recognized mismanagement of Haley's career. Pathetic!

Walmart accounts for a sizable chunk of music sales, so I don't think cutting a deal with them was necessarily a bad move.

I fear WM is out of stock now because Interscope has ceased production of the album. Best case scenario would be holiday sales combined with the news of her breaking with Interscope caused a run on their available inventory.

On eBay there are:
27 unsigned 10 track Listen Up CD's
7 autographed 10 track Listen Up CD's and only
1 unsigned 14 track deluxe Listen Up CD's

I don't understand why at the clubs Haley has been playing at and even with Allen Stone , there wasn't any cds for sale at the venues. If people liked her music at the show, they could've bought a cd and continue to listen to her.

Otherwise, they will twitter, "it was a great show". then go home, and forget about it.

That was so stupid. Chiara should have had boxes of cds with her. IMO

I agree provided they had available stock. I found it very strange that Haley had none on hand, and I don't sense an oversight. As Miguel suggested, Interscope ceased production and that was it. What was in stores was the last of the inventory, and what is now available on e-bay. IMHO, I think that Interscope had never intended to hang onto Haley. It's as if Jimmy liked her enough to allow her to make one album, but production of CD's was limited from the get-go. Chiara may not have had any stock to bring. Just my feeling on this matter.

On the bright side, though, I'm still not worried about our girl!!! Everything happens for a reason!

Walmart had limited stock available in their stores (don't know about online) from the the time Listen Up! was released based on my experiences as well as many fellow Haliens posted experiences. On the day Listen Up! was released I went to my local Walmart early that morning. No CD's were to be found. I went back after work in the evening and her CD was not in the New Music Section. It took me 10 minutes of hunting and scavenging to find 2 deluxe editions and 2 standard albums. That's it! 4 total Listen Up! albums. The next day they had nothing. Whether that was a Walmart issue or an Interscope issue who knows; however, limited supply is limited supply.

She had CD sales for sale in Portland when I saw her there at the Allen Stone show.My two nieces each bought one and had them autographed.

I walked into Target Dec 19th. To my surprise the CD rack very close to the front door had Listen Up prominently displayed. My wife spotted it as soon as we walked in and we weren't looking for CDs.
