i've often shopped at uk-dancerecords.co.uk and i've always found them great. u have to get your orders in quick, 'coz they don't seem to gave large stocks, but delivery is well fast (once in under 24 hrs!) and all, so if i can find it there i grabs it.

I went to DMF yesterday and the place is a bit of a tip!

They have plenty of stock all right, and it's categorised reasonably, but they don't appear to have any form of stock monitoring system. ie. when a record is sold they have to remember to delete it off the system, no barcode lables or stock numbers like other stores.

I got a couple of tracks I wanted (real old stuff though). There was one I wanted that I saw on the website but the guy there said that he didn't think they had it and looked for it and counldn't find it.

I'd get stuff from there but never mail order, only if I actually went in, then you can be sure what you are getting.

ok, never order from www.nrgmusic.com!
they offer free shipping in the united states (their average vinyl is $10 though) so i ordered 5 about 4 months ago..
it took an entire month for me to get one of them. then it took 2 more weeks to get another one. so i canceled the rest of my order...
they take ridiculously long to get your order. what are they doing, walking to germany to pick them up???

tossers!

i didnt think it would be possible to fuck up an order on a set of needles..................

but thats right you guessed it! HTFR the ****s managed it!

i ordered a set of Shure carts, everything looked fine, nice box boths carts and styli there, so i set about mounting my new shiny carts only to discover the idiots sent me only 1 set of mounting screws instead of 2!

well this is the very last time i shop there as these idiots are nothing but incompetant, and should not be allowed to have a website never mind a web store!

DO NOT SHOP AT HTFR!

Hey guys.

I just read through the whole thread, and I think this is great that we all watch out for each other.

I've been a photographer for years, and there are similar mail order camera shops that pull the same shit. Like you will order a certain camera with a certain lens, and they will send you the right camera with a cheapo lens. Sometimes you will get lucky, but for the most part they are scammers. If most of the people have bad experiences with a store, then I think it's safe to say that you shouldn't even look at their webpage lest you be tempted to order something! Maybe like that guy said you can go in person to the store and check it out...

I'll only order from places that people have recomended here. Gemm.com is a great search engine, but you can tell some of those stores are scammers as well. They will sell a rare vinyl for like 8 bux, when it's worth $30-40.

Peace,
Dave

I've used HTFR once back at the end of February. The reason being that they had a certain DMC vinyl and a one sided Steel Fish Qattara vinyl in stock that I was really after. So while I was there, I also ordered another 4 which I was interested in. I must say I had absolutely no problem, although the price for the Qattara vinyl was a little steep. All of them arrived in perfect condition very quickly.

Although maybe I'm just lucky. I guess it's probably because I'm into older stuff that there's less demand for (I'm a big 90's Trance/Progressive/Epic House fan) and so generally there will be less trouble with them so they aren't likely to make a bootleg copy of something they don't think will sell. So from my personal experience, if you're into older stuff that isn't too sought after among most people and HTFR have it, then go ahead with it. Although nobody has to listen to me.

I recently had a problem with www.humpty.de. I placed an order with them over a month ago. I was charged on my credi card but I never received my records. I tried emailing several times to 2 different email addresses with no response. I then stated my problem on the message board only find that message was deleted a day later and no response back. After doing this several times of posting and getting deleted, I got an email response saying that I wasn't charged for my order when in fact I was. I wrote back but no response as usaul. Now the site has been down for about a week. Anyone else ever order from them or had a problem like this?
