Sonic Groove is notorious for enticing people with their website stock.
They finally put up a disclaimer saying that what they have listed on the
website might not be in stock...but that doesn't really do much, does it?
I have ordered from them in the past and haven't had any problems, BUT I
do know people who have...just keep in mind that they are usually
extremely busy (prolly the best techno store besides hardwax in germany)
and sometimes fumble people's orders due to volume.
And yes, they probably attempt to cull their resources if you have a want
and they don't have it in stock. I don't, however, view this as a bad
thing, but, if you're a person like Frankie Bones, you prolly have access
to a good number of records (or people that have the records).
Oh, and another thing, I'd be curious to see what you're ordering...SG has
a wide variety of records, but they definitely specialize in more
dancefloor friendly hard techno, not really idm type music.
