UK hardcore punk mail-order/distro.
Better than silence. Mostly.
Christmas Shoppers
The season of infant greed and parental guilt is upon us once again.
If you’re visiting this store in order to buy a gift for a loved one/favoured associate, firstly, good call, I applaud you decision to opt for something they might actually appreciate (that faux Banksy wall calender from last year, it was, well, a bit shit). But secondly, it’s a difficult one! Selecting a musical choice for somebody else is hard. Especially so if you are not well versed in this mysterious anorak world of punk rock records. Call me or email me if you need some good intentioned, but probably hopeless, shopping advice and guidance. On the whole, I think books and t-shirts are the easier option…
But, gentle words of warning: in most respects this store is the direct opposite of Amazon, (they are my enemy, and they should be your’s too). Also, I have no control over the Royal Mail’s christmas service, (they are not the enemy. But, at the top, they are run by incompetent knobheads). With that in mind, I will reply to messages containing curt one-liners that demand to know the excact location of a parcel that was ordered 12 hours ago – but I am a petulant grump when antagonised in this unfriendly manner, and consequently things may not go as speedy-smooth as they ordinarily would. Treat me good, people.
As always in times of postal congestion it is a good idea at checkout to add ‘signed-for’/tracking to your order.
Oh, and just about ANYONE would love to receive the gift of some previously unreleased/unheard songs by Minor Threat. Hopefully there will be enough copies of the new 7″ to go around for everyone, but who knows?! Reserving yourself a copy asap would be a good idea.
Sold out? Missed out? Drop me a line, I can let you know when any given item is due back in stock and can reserve/message you when it returns. It’s usually a matter of days/weeks, not months. Modern life is fast. (I, on the other hand, vary somewhere between brisk and sluggish).
I still do not have a policy for making reservations, however, I’m happy to do the right thing in terms of stashing stuff for a few weeks or whatever. It’s all done on an individual basis depending on who you are (i.e. a regular customer) and what you’re after (must have good taste).
If you place a big order, or build up a big stash – like over £100 – I can probably do a cheap deal on postage. Pay for standard second class at checkout and I’ll then send your parcel Special Delivery – which costs £16, has good insurance, and is guaranteed next day delivery before 1pm.
