maintreqd Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 any success or horror stories with these guys? i placed an order on saturday after not being able to grab Anberlin NTFP in time at the store i went to. they charged my card, and the website still lists it as in stock (along with a ton of other stuff that is seemingly sold out everywhere else). I called and got bounced around to like 5 people before giving up but no one there seems to know what the status of inventory is... from what I gather it sounds like they are waiting for stuff to come in maybe? anyone have any more insight? i get the sinking feeling it's one of those "wait a month only to receive a cancellation email" scenarios...

maintreqd Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 That being said if anyone has an extra Anberlin NTFP they're willing to sell or trade me please let me know what you're looking for to make it happen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickemmons Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 They are a big electronics store in NYC if I'm thinking about the same place - I ordered the Cursive 12" from them and I'm also hoping it actually ships Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theinkd Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 i've worked with them a bunch when i worked in the city, they are a legit company but they run shit ass backwards. no one take offense to this but its basically israel in there... and everyones a complete asshole. but i did order a couple things from them on saturday as well. they haven't charged me yet and i really don't expect them to pull through at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collectivemike Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Yeah they're this big huge electronics store... think Best Buy but more run down. I've never seen records in the one near me. I'd stay away from ordering from here if you can help it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get why stores wouldn't get more, Looney Tunes only got like 5... anyway thanks a bunch, +1 for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I used to live near during college was in the Bronx, so they had 0 selection. EDIT: At what point am I going to stop being freaked out after every time I say "when I was in college" or something similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseydave77 Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 B&H has gentile workers as well. J&R has come through for some and failed on others. Relying on them in these situations is however a crap shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emo Revival Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I just called and canceled my order, fuck it I'd rather go through T&N for Anberlin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maintreqd Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 EDIT: At what point am I going to stop being freaked out after every time I say "when I was in college" or something similar? probably around the time you start freaking out instead about turning 30, which is where i'm at. but nah, not really. i hear a lot of people say 30s are the best. i guess i'll let you know.

I love my 30's - really. I stopped saying "when I was in High School" or "when I was in College" and started to instead refer to things music and friendship related as "coming of age" - I found it easier to explain to people who didn't share the same experiences as I did.

I read on yahoo news that relationships are the best at the age of 33. And by relationships, I mean the sex... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
