Piccadilly's online / mail order representation is really good.  They seem
to get the best new stuff from plenty of genres in.

Dont know what RubADub's new improved web site will be
ready but I know they have been working on it, im sure
Jason will jump in with the usual RAD answer to when
they will get anything - Oh, about 2 weeks ;-))
They do still do mail order though Michael so if you
want anything give them a call, im sure they will be
able to sort you out.


As for UK online stores, I use piccadilly and boomkat

Re: (313) Online record stores again!!

2003-04-05 Thread scotto
we had a record store here in e. lansing, mi. that closed recently.
vinyl addict, til recently had a store front, now it is an ebay estore.
also i suspect spin cycle will soon join : (
i know the mix factory is blowing stuff out for cheap and about out of
there.

we still have fbc (flat black  circular) which doesn't specialize in any
one genre, but kind of covers them all, which i think has given it a sort of
longevity (25 yrs now). they do how every have great selections of
electronic music, hip hop, jazz, indie, punk, good ole' rock'n'roll.

which leads me to ask, where does everyone in detroit buy electro? i have
been to both record times with in the last month, and they had very little,
and it was most pretty common.
i have never been to neptune, but have been told it's an mad-net import type
store?
and melodies  memories (my favorite down there) has that in lock down imo.

I never had problems with this online records shop. They have big catalogue
(with Real audio samples).
They answer quickly to email if you have problem or you want to have
information.
On the other hand, I have never to control with UPS.

For French who would to order with satellite.  Be Carefull, made not too
important order.
The French customs stop 2 parcels that contains almost 20 each one. (They
required that I pay the TVA taxes)
I never had problems with small the parcels (less than 10 Vinyls).

no offense to anyone who may be satisfied with satellite records, but I and
many other people I've talked to about them have had nothing but problems.
Problems range from over charging accounts all the way down to a month or
two long wait for shipment of records that should be available immediately.
I've had the later happen to me the few times I did order from satellite.

I would suggest trying www.planetxusa.com for any online record orders.
They were one of the pioneers in online music shopping and have been around
long enough to have built a solid reputation throughout the industry.  I
only talk highly of them because I personally, as well as a good majority of

RE: [313]online record stores

2001-09-19 Thread Joe Szczepanek
I had heard bad things about Satellite Records, but decided to try them out
anyways.  Unfortunately, it turns out that everything negative I heard was
true. 

They sent me records other than what was on the shipping list and one of the
records I received looked as though it had been slammed in a door. Also, it
took them about 3 weeks to get the order out to me. Definitely not worth
it...

Groovetech, on the otherhand, is great.  I've used them many times, all
positive experiences.  

As compliment to Groovetech's customer service:
One time they sent me the wrong record, and when I informed them of this,
they immediately (next day air) sent me out the correct record along with
postage for return shipping on the old one.

Here's my experiences with Planet X:

1) Their policy for international orders (including Canada) is 
terrible.  The first time I ordered from them, I had to do a wire 
transfer to their bank account in NY because they can't verify 
international VISA numbers (for some reason the extra 3 digits on the 
back of a VISA card isn't good enough).  Thus the order cost me an extra 
$30 Canadian in wire transfer fees.


2) When I received my first order, a double album I bought contained two 
copies of the same record.  I brought the issue up and their solution 
was to refund me for it on my next order.  The only reason why I 
accepted this was because they were willing to let me use my ghastly 
international VISA number on the next order (so I wouldn't have to pay 
the absurd wire transfer fees).


3) When I placed my second order, I brought up the issue of the refund 
was told it would happen.  It didn't (I was charged the full amount of 
the second order).


4) Also on my second order, I didn't receive notice of what records I 
would be receiving (just notice that a package had been shipped to me).  
When I tried to find out what records were shipped, they said, our 
system isn't quite set up for that - yet.


5) I can't navigate their website in Linux (my main operating system for 
software development) since they use Internet Exploder specific website 
features (and there's no version of Internet Exploder for Linux).


Perhaps the last point is nitpicking, but it's important for me.  
Especially since Planet X seems to pride itself on independence 
(what's more independent than a hacker developed, DIY operating system?).


Anyways, I just needed to vent about that.  Needless to say, I won't be 
ordering from them again.

2001-09-19 Thread Dennis Donohue




I've had similar experiences with satellite - I had to wait 3 1/2 weeks for 
a record, and then I was overcharged (on a debit card - which cost me money 
for overcharged account - which was severely overcharged (not jsut $2 or 
something)).  I have had good luck with sixeleven records 611records.com  
though they never tell you if they're out of a record, neither does 
sonicgroove (www.sonicgroove.com) - groovetech is easily the best online 
record retailer - as planetx (planetxusa.com) and sonicgroove start charging 
premiums for sought after records, and never tell if they are in stock or 
not (though planetx sometimes did - and they may have changed since i 
ordered from them 1 1/2 years ago)


You can also try large record stores with online presence - gramaphone 
records in chicago has a deep back-catalogue of house (though I'm not sure 
how much is advertised online) but they only advertise records that are 
in-stock.  You can always call them as well.  Disadvantages to large record 
stores include sales tax, large shipping fees, and having to deal with 
people that don't want to be on the phone.


I've also found that you must know where your online shop is, as some are in 
teh uk (or even germany) and you might think you're getting a good deal on 
imports, but you're getting charged for it in shipping.


Hope this helps a bit!
Cheers!

i second (and third) the recommendation for Groovetech.  great service, 
great selection, good prices, can't say enough about them.


i've dealt with PlanetXUSA, they don't tell what's in stock on the website 
but if your order gets denied then they will tell you which ones they do 
have in stock.  best bet with PlanetX is to just buy the new records they 
get and don't bother with the older ones.  if you search the DJ Shoppe by 
genre, it'll give you the listing in newest-first order, and if it's less 
than a week old you'll probably be able to get it.

sonicgroove (www.sonicgroove.com) - groovetech is easily the best online
record retailer - as planetx (planetxusa.com) and sonicgroove start 
charging

premiums for sought after records, and never tell if they are in stock or
not (though planetx sometimes did - and they may have changed since i
ordered from them 1 1/2 years ago)

You can also try large record stores with online presence - gramaphone
records in chicago has a deep back-catalogue of house (though I'm not sure
how much is advertised online) but they only advertise records that are
in-stock.  You can always call them as well.  Disadvantages to large record
stores include sales tax, large shipping fees, and having to deal with
people that don't want to be on the phone.

I've also found that you must know where your online shop is, as some are 
in

teh uk (or even germany) and you might think you're getting a good deal on
imports, but you're getting charged for it in shipping.

Hope this helps a bit!
Cheers!

no offense to anyone who may be satisfied with satellite records, but I 
and

many other people I've talked to about them have had nothing but problems.
Problems range from over charging accounts all the way down to a month or
two long wait for shipment of records that should be available 
immediately.

I've had the later happen to me the few times I did order from satellite.

I would suggest trying www.planetxusa.com for any online record orders.
They were one of the pioneers in online music shopping and have been 
around

long enough to have built a solid reputation throughout the industry.  I
only talk highly of them because I personally, as well as a good majority
of
their shoppers have had nothing but solid performance by PX.

just thought i'd throw in my experiences

 Hi,

 I do several order at Satellite Records (
http://www.satelliterecords.com )
 .. I live in France (Paris).
 I never had problems with this online records shop. They have big
catalogue
 (with Real audio samples).
 They answer quickly to email if you have problem or you want to have
 information.
 On the other hand, I have never to control with UPS.

 For French who would to order with satellite.  Be Carefull, made not 
too

 important order.
 The French customs stop 2 parcels that contains almost 20 each one.
(They
 required that I pay the TVA taxes)
 I never had problems with small the parcels (less than 10 Vinyls).

 In my website, a list of online record shops :

  they are the one of the ones i have had good luck with.  it is
especially
  great if you are in the US and they pay the shipping for you.  i 
think

 that
  is a great move on their part.  i am getting ready to do another 
order

 with
  them.
  the other is record time.  a great place to get all your detroit 
music

  needs.  plus thier prices on domestic vinyl is cheaper then the rest
of
 the
  country.  if only they would pay shipping...maybe i should put that 
in

 Ani's
  suggestion box :)
  everyone else i have delt with has had something up thier ass and you
had
 to
  do certain things the hard way to recieve your package.  like
satellite
  records...have to be at the house for the UPS man to show up so you
can
 pay
  himi don't remember.  i gave up on them long ago.  they suck.  
big
  selection, but unless they revamped their delivery method i won't 
shop
