im going to shoot amazon in the fucking head

batreleaser · 02.21.2008, 09:15 PM

i was supposed to have and old omoide hatoba record in the mail and a new copy of mount shasta's put the creep on (lost the last one during a move), and both of them have gone missing, and both the distributors said they "shipped them in quick time" and gave me a refund, but fuck, id rather have the cds for cuntlickin's sake! and now im waiting for arab on radar's soak the saddle, which is still within its 'estimated deliverey', but im paranoid now. well, thats just my bitchy rant for the day. thank you.

you mean amazon marketplace? that thing is crazy, a true gamble.

ZEROpumpkins · 02.22.2008, 01:14 AM

I ordered a Guided by Voices Box Set from the US and got it in days. But I understand there are a lot of problems with that site. Sorry about your records, I once ordered Selected Ambient Works 1 from a website but got the second one instead. The guy couldn't understand why I gave him negative feedback.

i get my stuff about 90 percent of the time. i still order from them, but i make sure i order cheap used cds, dvds or books. i don't want to get ripped off ordering a 25 dollar cd or anything like that

So much pot....

I ordered six albums a few months ago, and one of them (The Laughing Clowns - Golden Greats: When Giants Walked The Earth) still hasn't arrived. I haven't recieved an email about it being out of stock or anything.

New slogan for amazon:
Five sixths of the time, you WILL be satisfied.

Everyneurotic · 02.22.2008, 10:55 AM

i once ordered the goo deluxe edition second hand on amazon and didn't arrive, messaged the seller, told me it was odd but that they located another copy and sent it to me i never got it. good thing it was only 18 bucks or something like that.

batreleaser · 02.22.2008, 11:12 AM

yeah othe omoide hatoba distrib gave me a full refund, the mount shasta guys never emailed me back.

atsonicpark · 02.22.2008, 06:29 PM

Can't you just order the mount shasta cd directly from skin graft? I might be wrong. That's a good record.

I have ordered.. looking at my account now.. 271 things in the past 8 years from amazon and have always recieved what I ordered. A few times, I actually got the wrong thing sent to me, but I'd get a full refund and an actual copy of what I needed. Guess I'm lucky.

pbradley · 02.22.2008, 06:32 PM

Reminds me when I bought Zen Arcade on vinyl but the seller miswrote it as vinyl when it was a CD. So fucking lame and I still want it on vinyl.

i think its arguably the best noise rock record of the 90's.

I didn't actually order these from Amazon, they're from Redeye Records (who are usually very good). I don't think I've ever ordered anything from Amazon. I don't need to - JB Hi-Fi usually has everything I need.

atsonicpark · 02.22.2008, 09:33 PM

Well, it's a good noise rock record, but I actually prefer their collaboration with space streakings, shakuhachi surprise - space streakings sighted over mount shasta. KICK ON CIGARETTE.

SYRFox · 02.23.2008, 04:26 AM

I don't order often from Amazon as, for the moment, I have no payment method (no paypal, no credit card, no bank account in fact) - that's going to change soon -, so what I get from Amazon is always ordered by other people.

But, I received everything I ordered from Amazon (SYR 1 to 5, Loveless, Psychocandy by JAMC, Halve Maen by Double Leopards and Dins by Psychic Ills), so I'll probably continue ordering from it... I have already a few CDs in my basket that I want to order when I'll have some way to do it (Oneida - Secret Wars / Blood On The Wall - Liferz / To Kill A Petty Bourgeoisie - The Patron / HEALTH - HEALTH)

Trasher02 · 02.23.2008, 05:56 AM

I've always received everything I ordered from amazon, lucky me!

█████████ · 02.23.2008, 06:59 AM

well, i have never ordered records or cds from amazon, but i've never had any problems with books.

krastian · 02.23.2008, 04:40 PM

Have any of you guys sold stuff on Amazon? Is it cheaper/better than Ebay with all the fees and whatnot?
