Dan Gould Posted February 15, 2019 Report Posted February 15, 2019 I see there is demand for these on the Jazz Messengers sale. I'll part with them to the first who PMs me, $12 each postage paid in the US. If someone from Yuropa wants them we'll figure out shipping cost to settle. Quote

No communication or response to inquiries about missing and damaged orders, and I had to file claims with Amazon directly twice. They also had (or perhaps still have) the incredibly skeevy habit of posting the same item several times on amazon.com, using different seller names, and many of them *not* stating they were shipping from Germany (which would be fine if I didn't live an ocean + a continent away, perhaps). (Maybe they're less awful for European shipments?) Quote

They are the only fully banned Amazon/Ebay seller for me (decluttr is partially banned for non-existent product control - they sometimes send me discs terribly overgraded, or even missing elements, such as a second disc. Both sellers do refund without dispute if you file a claim, but who needs the headaches? Quote
T.D. Posted February 17, 2019 Report Posted February 17, 2019 Wow, thanks for the warning. I think I've bought a couple of single CDs from momox with no problems, but I've been considering a used box set. Will shelve the plan. I doubt overgrading is rare among Euro Amazon sellers - I avoid used items from Zoverstocks due to unfortunate experience in that regard. Quote

Huge into recycling push. Quote

Big Beat Steve Posted February 17, 2019 Report Posted February 17, 2019 (edited) I never had a problem with Momex either - did not order from them often but when I did the transactions were excellent and fast and the prices very interesting. As for "a continent away" - caveat emptor and do read the fine print (i.e. address). The shipping problems from the USA to Europe can be at least as much of a headache - if not more. It has yet to happen to me with a seller from Europe that a seller was a complete deadbeat. Happened to me with a US seller via abebooks. Given the foreseeable hassle I left it at that eventually. And twice on eBay.com. One at least refunded the price but communication was zero. Apparently one of those cases where he found he could not be bothered to sell an overstock book item across the pond after all (despite announcing worldwide shipping).

felser Posted February 17, 2019 Report Posted February 17, 2019 Momox has incredibly poor ratings on ebay, about 90% satisfaction (many large sellers are close to 100%, for instance get_imports is 99%). I don't think they are deadbeats, as sometimes I have had shipments from them show up months later. I just think there is some sort of systematic glitch getting stuff from Germany to USA addresses (regardless of which postal service/customs office is to blame). Quote

Like I said, they have done business on Amazon under different names without mentioning the country of origin (edit: and in fact having a Florida address as their US front—I wish I'd kept notes on which one!). Reading the fine print did not and could not help. (I only realized what they were up to when my package arrived and had the same originating address as the Momox ones. I think they have since cut this $&#* out, likely because pissed-off customers like me reported them to Dark Lord Bezos.) Shady AF, y'all. I'm glad you've had good experiences with them, though.

Maybe the best thing, then, would be to avoid ordering from Germany altogether. After all, according to the latest news twits, ordering from Germany might put the security of your country at peril anyhow ... Edited February 20, 2019 by Big Beat Steve Quote
