Same... I actually hate HMV.

"From HMV, Straigt To The Boys From HMP" Well no, Kano, you were fucking wrong. It's from hmv to the boys when they get off there 3 month brake.. Pisstakers. I can't even cancel my order and book a new one till tomorrow because my dads not here :angry: Pissed!

Uptown, you have my written and sworn word, i will never doubt you again, I will be a loyal customer.

11th March '08, 03:56 PM
Yeah I thought uptown was more complicated to use than it actually was must of been there old site but it was easy and quick so I will be ordering from there again as long as theres no problems with this CD.

11th March '08, 04:10 PM
Appreciate the good comments :) and again we make our daily post run everyday so only reason you wouldn't get your cd next day is if you ordered after 4pm or your postman is a par and to be honest most postmen are! just make sure you drop him a xmas card and a mince pie this year cause postmen can sheg you differently lol!

Again this is why we been around for 12 years and counting! We appreciate the business and we have allot more to come to be able to give back to the customers we get! Watch out for some SERIOUS free downloads/mixes/videos coming weekly very soon...

LoL, i was thinking about starting up a Webshop for grime music, due to the mass complaints that UKRS gets. Uptown seem to have service locked though, which was gonna be the one thing i hoped to entice customers with.

Doing a paperound, listening to music, to make money to buy more music is what I call grinding

ok because hmv have taken the complete piss im gonna cancel and order it from here.

one thing i need answered though...how much is delivery?
it wont affect my decision to order from you because your service is clearly top notch

Jenai
11th March '08, 07:01 PM
£2.75 recorded delivery! Its a bit much on one cd but saves allot of trouble and if people send a cd them selfs by recorded its exactly the same price we make NO money out of postage unlike other companies.

Jenai
11th March '08, 07:03 PM
oh and by the way the more you order the better as its not £2.75 a cd lol!

For example we had an order for 4x CDs and 4x Vinyl and postage only came to £7.50 so the more you order the less you pay overall.

thats a bit of a pisstake really 25%

I reckon it should be 10% but on your overall order rather than individual items, so the more you buy the more you get off of it

not gonna happen, why should they? it would be good obviously but lets be sensible, it's not good business sense to offer 25% off just because of a link to a forum.

special offers/forum pre orders etc would be more feasible

well the cd i got from you yesterday cost £2.08 to post according to the label

you should have the option of sending out by normal post - recorded deliveries a pain as a) it costs more and b) i'm never in when the post arrives so have to trek over the other side of town to pick it up

^^ makes it worse when there are 3 depots for ups in your area due to gatwick being 2 seconds away and you dont know there are 3 depots and dont know which depot its in and you dont know where the depots are so you spend £30 on taxis trying to find the depots. and thats only half the story. longest night of my life.

maybe u have to be member for a certain amount of time?
or a admin activates when ur entitled to discount when they view you as a contributing member to the GF?

11th March '08, 08:09 PM
lol at those people who expect us to deliver by hand to their doors it seems! you cant win em all! and reason we DONT use normal post which cost about a pound or so anyway and isnt worth it is because if the cd goes missing which these things happen allot on normal post then you get nothing! we will not cover you or cant track it down and for what sake of a few quid! we learnt that lesson many years ago! and lol at people thinking we could get rich of postage costs lol

It's a par for me, and I live closer to the depot than you...although you drive. 25 minute walk or 5 minute drive for me. :)

Lucky I do evening shifts now though, can be in when orders arrive!
