dantheriver Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I just feel it's BS from a company I've always thought of as reputable and worth shopping with. We all have opinions, I just shared mine. Update: that guy is just a troll. Saw him supplying similar replies in other threads. Pay no mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsWetWilly Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 My email to interpunk: Good Afternoon/ Evening, I have been a shopper of Interpunk for years. I mean a really long time. Recently I replied to an email about Interpunk expanding its stock to include things aside from punk, metal, etc. I was very supportive of this idea. I am about fairness and inclusion. Now to my question. This item (http://www.interpunk.com/item.cfm?Item=226266) is listed at $65.00. Why? If I give you guys the benefit of the doubt and assume that your distributors or Triple Crown is up charging you, you should know! They are ripping you off, and you should tell them to take these records and shove up their asses. This is selling retail at around $30. If you guys are up charging this by $35- SHAME on you! I know people will pay it, but that is ridiculous. Don’t worry I’m not bent out of shape because I want to buy it from you. I’ve already bought it, but I’m just looking out for the less informed people out in the world. Just know that if this is not somehow corrected, myself and MANY other people over at Vinyl Collective will be boycotting Interpunk indefinitely. You’ve already lost some, so do the right thing. I trust you will. Love Always, Benjamin Great letter. I sent an email to them earlier saying almost exactly the same thing. Also, mentioning that the vault was shady, but I turned my cheek to it. Plus, my name is Ben. They're going to think a gang of vinyl collecting Bens are out to get them. HURRY, stl_Ben! Fowty Dollaz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fowty Dollaz Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Did someone say the bens? Best super group ever. I would join this band only if each of you are as untalented as I am musically. I can listen to music like a pro, I just can't make any. Edit: with a name like "the bens" (Which is obviously a play on "The Bends" -- and simultaneously what my nieces call me...weird) we'd obviously be a Radiohead cover band and no musical talent would be required. I'm in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freedumb Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Ben wrote a very fair and concerned letter to a business he'd like to support in the future. Ben wrote a ridiculous scolding to a company that has sold countless records over many years because they overpriced a very-soon-to-be readily available record that was put out in 2003.
