HoneyFrosted Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Soooo... Has anyone actually had luck getting a record after getting a "backordered" notice via email? Not to my knowledge. That Lone LP and the Ty Segall / Black Time split both got backordered. The real question is, when some items say Shipped and others say 0 of 1 Shipped, has anyone actually had luck getting those items? Or is it just a precursor for more backorders? I know it was a mad dash for some stuff, but fuck, Insound is shitty to the bitter end. I think it's kinda sadly funny their emails still say they expect more stock in 2-4 weeks.

radiatorhums Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Soooo... Has anyone actually had luck getting a record after getting a "backordered" notice via email? Once and it was at least 8 months later. It was fucking annoying since I had purchased it elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himynameisShane Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 It's very unlikely they will fill back stock orders when they are clearing the inventory. They ended up canceling the speaker order I had that got back ordered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyFrosted Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Thanks for my severely creased Mr. Oizo record, Insound!! To be fair it was packed very well. But that's almost worse, since they sent out damaged stock to begin with. goddammit insound i hate you sio much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devon__ Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I bought Third Eye Blinds S/T and it came with major creases and corner damage. Emailed Insound about returning it but they told me to just keep it and they refunded my money. It's worth a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

himynameisShane Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I bought a turntable from them. It came with a crack on the side. I was bummed and sent them an email hoping (if they had extras) for a replacement, or a minor additional discount. They sent me an email back telling me they approved a refund on it and let me keep it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fowty Dollaz Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 What the **** ? http://underconstruction.insound.com/ It's like one of those furniture stores going out of business. They just need to liquidate everything and start over. They're not ACTUALLY going out of business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that newsletter form is from their last renovation a while back. If you sign up now, you'll get an email with a coupon for 10% off that expires in May 2015.

Aych Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I can't say I'd be surprised if this whole thing was just a liquidation, but I'm actually totally okay with that. More good music at like half the price for me. Also, I've somehow managed to have zero issues every time I bought something from them, even the two albums I ordered during this whole "closing our doors" sale. Don't know how, given the last few posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just a normal guy kevin Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I wouldn't be surprised if they resurfaced as a "limited quantities of this random release" newsletter service or if they became a middle-man distributor with no warehouse or stock. Or if they sold the name to someone else to do with as they please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fowty Dollaz Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I wouldn't be surprised if they sold the name to someone else to do with as they please. I wonder if their name sold at 30% or 50% off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natenomm Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I wonder if their name sold at 30% or 50% off? Regardless, they probably charged them $30 for shipping. Duff, mmhmm and Fowty Dollaz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twistedshabazz Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 So they just stopped the sale and called it a day with no warning? Awesome insound... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC1221 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 No warning? Dude they said the site would be shutdown sometime in May. I think two additional months post-announcement is ample warning. Duff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
