somethingvinyl Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I've placed two separate orders with them. Both times, at least one item that was supposed to be a LP turned out to be a CD. The last thing was like $1.50 so they just told me to keep it and they would refund me the money. It's a crapshoot but not a terrible risk.

robotfactory Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I have purchased somewhere between 20-30 records from Gohastings and have yet to receive a CD. I can say that about 50% of the records come packed like shit (bubble mailers or taped between two pieces of cardboard). The shitty shipping is usually worth low prices you can get from sales like this (at least to me). I will take a record at 20% off for having some damage to the jacket, it still sounds fine. ruckis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never gotten a damaged record from them. I have gotten 1 cd though. They sent me a shipping return label and returned my money. They also offered to let me buy the record again with the discount that I used but had since expired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaba1337 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I've ordered probably 15 records from them total. Only one screw up, received the wrong LP. Incidentally the screw up was also the worst packed, the rest have come in either regular record mailers, or in larger boxes, well packed. I contacted them about the mistake, they sent me a postage paid label and I sent it back, received a refund in a week. As others have said, between the prices often being several dollars less than anyone else along with the $1 shipping, I am always willing to order from hastings, even if the record arrives a little beat up. I actually listen to my records, so if I can save $5+ per record at the cost of a small split or crease in the jacket, it's worth it to me.

eskimoswim Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I bought a copy of Nadja's Under the Jaguar Sun for $8 (probably around $30 elsewhere) from this site last year. it arrived flawlessly in one of those nice mailers that amazon uses.

hudsoncomplex Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 ruckis, what'd you get? worried that i may end up spending now. already looking at in rainbows, and i'm on the third row. Ry- I've got a copy of In. Rainbows I never listen to, and I let it go on the cheap. Pm me if you (or anyone else) are interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikeguitars Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 They actually have mailers now. not generic, but with the company logo printed on them. Could have used an extra piece of cardboard and some bubble wrap, but other than that my records came in good condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Yup. I was surprised to see a physical cardboard mailer - slim as it was - from "goHastings goShip". Even with the lack of cardboard or foam inserts, the record was in flawless condition. I was very impressed. One down, three to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron666monkey Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Ordered 4 records. They sent 3 records and a cd.....and the cd they sent was totally wrong. Sadly the 4th record that ended up being sent as a cd was the one I wanted most. Figures. Follow up to this. I called and the customer service rep was super nice. They're giving me a credit for the wrong item plus a shipping credit. Still bummed I didn't get the album I really wanted. That being said, the 2 orders I have place with GoHastings have gone smoothly and were received in record mailers. This place has great prices.

Derek™ Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I've really got to hand it to Gohastings: they've stepped up their game immensely since my last order. Four records in flawless condition. No dings, split seams, or scuffs. All were sealed, and - more importantly - none were CDs. Couldn't be more impressed. I really hope it wasn't just a lucky fluke, but rather an indicator of things to come. Anyone else content with their recent shipping methods?

ruckis Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I ordered two records (1 being a pre order) and one showed up in great condition in a proper record mailer. Hopefully the second shows up in just as good condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no use for a username Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Got two records in today from gohastings and they came in a padded bubble wrap mailer, which probably would have been fine, but there was a big shoe print on the corner. Sure enough the sleeves on both records were bent to sh*t on that corner. Guess I can't complain too much for the price I paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure enough the sleeves on both records were bent to sh*t on that corner. Guess I can't complain too much for the price I paid. Call customer service and let them know, I work for the company and there has been a ton of e-mails telling stores to use the vinyl mailers and to not use bubble mailers. You think it would be common sense by now but it is not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
