No charges to credit cards are made until your order is pulled and is ready to ship.

If an item you order is out of stock, we will not bill you for it or send it to you later. If you would like to receive an automatic email notification when an out of stock item comes back in, just add the item(s) to your shopping cart, click on the "Submit Order" button and then enter your email address.

All Vinyl and CDs for sale on our website have an audio sample. We use metafiles (.m3u) to link to audio samples so playback starts faster and to allow easier configuring of what program to play audio samples in. If you experience any issues with audio files, refer to your audio program(s) help pages or online support forums. Usually there is a "file associations" settings option within each audio program and/or the browser or OS, that specifies how .m3u metafiles are handled. (A metafile is a small text file containing the url(s) of one or more audio files, which downloads very quickly enabling instant streaming.)
Our shopping cart works based on your IP address. If you disconnect from the internet while shopping, the contents of your cart may be lost (most internet providers dynamically assign IP addresses). If you experience any issues with our site please let us know.
