Welcome brother.
I will apologize in advance for my over use of the smiley.

...am trying to cut down on CD purchases.
Guy
Same here...

Just got an e-mail from Justine: 4 out of 5 shipped. Nice. Thanks Justine.

You can't expect "major labels" to make new music you care for. The best you can hope is they make enough money to "justify" reissues of older recordings you want.
I think this is a good move for us.
I think so too.

Speaking of the sound, is Van Gelder going to record Van?
I hope not...
-
...But I admit he's a bit of an acquired taste.

I can't dig this dude if for no other reason than "Brown Eyed Girl."
C'mon, he did far more interesting things than that stinker...
-
Stopped buying his albums after Saint Dominic's Preview (great album, by the way), but this could be interesting.
-
Uh Oh.
I ordered 7. They were all listed as "in stock".
Haven't heard what I'm getting.
Wonder how many it'll be.
Ordered 5 in-stock items and haven't heard anything either...

August 7:
Marilyn Crispell - Gary Peacock - Paul Motian - Amaryllis
Frank Strozier - The Fantastic Frank Strozier
Billie Holiday Columbia Box, disc 6
Duke Ellington - Far East Suite
Bix Beiderbecke - Real Jazz Me Blues - The Bix Beiderbecke Story, disc 1 (Japanese DSD-remastered Sony 2CD-set, fantastic!)

What was their reason for taking so long? As you ordered two of their new releases, was it just that they weren't ready to go?
They didn't give a reason.
-
Just got a reply that the sets shipped last week... Hmmm...
-
It's now August 7 and I still haven't received anything. I e-mailed them several times (the last one just went out) but didn't get a satisfactory reply. I paid them via PayPal, and I'm thinking about reporting them, but I'm not so sure that'll do the trick. Any suggestions?
-
Yeah, I guess I misspelled it, in a hurry to get a post off before I went off to lunch.
I'm lenient about spelling, mine and others; we've been down this road!
C'mon Lon, it was just a joke, a reply to your spelling joke in the Japanese reissues thread the other day. I did post a
, didn't I... -
Oh, I meant that I have placed a NUMBER of orders to this outfit, and this has happened to me several times, well maybe five times.
I guess I had that worded a little weirdly!
Errr... I was trying to make a spelling joke...
OK, not funny... -
CD Baby does ship outside the U.S.
-
Overall this is a great place to do business with...
Agree!
...although there is this phenomenum which has happened to me several times.OK Lon, I'll bite
: phenomenum? -
They must be headquartered on a planet which defines the word 'AVAILABLE' in a way which differs from that of us Earthlings.
This is all too common: Get 'em in the door with BIG promises and then stiff 'em. Fill the order as best you can and then blame the unfilled balance on out-of-date listings - laziness for which NO ONE is ever responsible. (Maybe it's our fault?)
I'd call this either entrapment (of a sort) or false advertising. I guess were not expected to bitch and moan as we're not charged for our ultimate disappointment.
The Internet Police are W A Y too lax on this bullshit.
ALL venting aside, considering that I ordered nearly (GoD help me) THIRTY CDs and they stiffed me on four, I shouldn't complain.
WOW!

how do you find cotrotempo's service?
I have only ordered the once from them , at the start of July i ordered 3 Ellery Eskelin CDs after asking for recommendations on this board . Last week i hadnt heard or received anything so i Emailed them , they replied they had one but they will be ordering the other 2 at the end of August! I was hoping for slightly faster service than this.
Are they normally quite reliable & I've just been a bit unlucky ?
They're extremely reliable (they filled all but one of my orders), but they're also very slow... (must be the scorching heat in Europe at the moment
) -
The Andrew Hills are also listed as not available. This is the fourth time this has happened. I don't know why they bother to list them in the sale.
Don't know which Hills you're looking for, but Italian internet store ControTempo might be able to supply them. You can order in English
, just click on the title etc. The page can take a while to load. -
...thread goes up again...
Looks like we have 18 people thus far, of which two are "technically handicapped."
Anyone else out there?
Don't count me in, haven't got time.

My order is on the way but the following items are marked "DELETED - DO NOT REORDER":
