the longest it took me to receive some records was last year during christmas time, but thats also cause i did not ask them to ship through fed ex...
Now, i only do the fed ex option, as the records will get to me within 2-3 business days.
The only complain i have is that sometimes you get records that are a bit warped.... not their fault, but always a risk of having these shipped overseas. I mean, if i can get the same records locally, id rather get them local, just not to depend on fedex ing up on stacking on top of records during shipment |

unless you select the fedex option, the records take a reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally long time to get to you... anywhere from a month to month and a half... i order at least once a month from them so i'd know... the fedex option is well worth it...

Cash is an issue simply because I would rather have 3 records instead of spending the same amount of money and getting 2. |

Juno is good and bad imo.
Great stock, simple website (doesn't have bulky crap) and decent shipping speeds.
My last order
Order Time: 04:05am (GMT +08) 12-31-02
Order Email Confirmation: 20:19pm (GMT +08) 12-31-02
Order Arrival: 10:30am (GMT +08) 01-06-03
Only took 1 week during the christmas season.
Downside though is their costs...
Net Total 60.15
Shipping/Packaging 31.60
Insurance 3.00
Courier 0.00
Grand Total 94.75 UK Pounds
31 pounds for shipping sux :whip: |

No worries dude, good luck with that. I reckon you'll get them eventually.

That's not true, all orders I have placed have taken 10-15 days since I clicked the "confirm order" button on their site. Except for that up that I spoke of (up the page a bit) which took 6 weeks of course.

in agreed. Chemical have very reasonable shipping costs, juno is in great apart from 2 pounds per record! :mad: :sadgreen: |

I heartily recommend Chemical.
When I order from them, 10 records costs about 11 pounds for shipping.. that's almost a pound per vinyl.
I live in Toronto, it takes about a week for the records to get here, without exception. Usually there are no customs charges, but if you buy lots of records at one time, you might get charged for your huge bundle.
Once it took a few weeks for me to get the vinyls, but that was because my local post office had failed to inform me that the records had arrived. In fact I only found out when I got a "last warning" message from my post office. Apparently they had gotten it a long time before, about a week after I had ordered them.
So Chemical rocks.
:D |

Anyone got a direct contact to juno via email?
I couldn't find anything on their site apart from customer enquiry if you have an order currently in progress.
Just want to ask them why the hell it's so expensive. |

| yeh if juno's shipping was better it would be unbeatable. i ordered 3 vinyls twice and shipping cost me about $25 aus each time :wtf: . I mean if chemical can do it for 1 pound a vinyl , why cant juno? is it because they have a contract with a shipping company? |

i think the problem is with ordering so little records at a time... like 1-3... I did that in the beginning, but it becomes like not worth it to order onine and wait, so i would shop locally... but then again, locals usually have of a selection.
So when i order, i usually order at least 8 records, and it usually averages to about 12-13 US dollars per record after shipping and fedex option.
Now to me, that is not bad at all considering that im getting a more rare selection (at least in the States).
All said and done, i cant complain with Juno, they have always come through, and even their customer service has been good.
If you want to know about expensive, try www.abovethesky.com.. they are pretty expensive in my opinion, and they are also from UK. However, they have an excellent hard trance selection.
I guess u get the good with the bad. |

I actually like Juno a lot. They have a great selection and good customer service. Though everyone is definitely right about the shipping charges. I had the same problem with my December batch of records, but they were very helpful and credited my account with the money I ordered with.
I think it is the contract that Juno has with the shipping company that raises their shipping rates. Perhaps if they tried to get a business rate they might be able to lower it close to Chemical.
Then again... maybe they want more money. LOL! |
