planetrakis Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Oh, and the only way to speak with them is by phone pretty much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whc Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Aural Exploits is absolutely terrible. I made a single order through their company and it literally tooks months. They respond to zero emails and never answer their phones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
april47th Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I ordered from them an never received my goods, they never answered emails and too much time had passed so paypal did nothing. I should have googled reviews before making an order. A lot of scamming seems to have been done, especially to overseas customers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlikesmusic Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I think the only thing I've ever bought from Aural Exploits was one of those transition copies of Alkaline Trio's "Remains" that they were hocking on eBay at the time it was pressed. Transaction went fine, albeit probably going on 5 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxv Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 They used to be really good and at some point they turned heel. The last time I ever ordered something from them they sent me a black vinyl copy when it was supposed to be colored. It took a week of repeated emails in order to get a reply and the dude was rather unpleasant about the whole thing, blaming it on the label sending him the wrong records. At least he corrected the mistake but I had to insist that I not eat the cost of return shipping for his mistake. The bad attitude I received soured me on ever ordering from them again.

blackholesun Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Yeah something must've happened over the last year or something. I used to order from them all the time and the records would come nearly always within a week. I haven't ordered from them in such a long time though. Such a shame.

nothingnatural Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Not surprised. Hope everyone was able to get their money back. I never bought from them as I heard nothing but bad things plus I didn't like the fact that they stocked lots of bootlegs and sold them for ridiculous prices. Wish I picked up those exclusive Elliott Smith represses a few years back but I didn't want to risk getting screwed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrd Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 i never had any problems with them, probably ordered about 10 times and always got my stuff, so weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainwrong Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Sorry for the thread bump, but I found this board looking for info on Aural Exploits. Just curious if anyone ever received a copy of Jesu - Ascension from them. I kept getting the "it's coming" emails whenever I asked, but of course, it never did. I'm accepting that I'm probably out the $30 or whatever, but I'm curious as to if this record ever pressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmoney Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Never pressed. Never shipped. Sorry dude. http://vinylcollective.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=61877&start=0#1115011 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
