Well, I'm gonna have to second the "Bent Crayon isn't
the best place to shop" opinion. I've had some
success with them, but now that I've moved they don't
seem to understand that they need to ship to the new
address and not to the old one. This only happened
once, but that's enough. I explicitly told them I had
moved.
And in the past their communication was not always,
er, timely. I've had the "weeks go by" thing happen
to me, too.
They're not *bad*, exactly, but they're not *good*,
exactly, either. I definitely wouldn't put them in my
top 3 favorite online places to shop. My best online
shopping experiences have been (in no order) with:
Skimo
Forced Exposure
Amazon
eBay
Sister Ray
WarpMart
CDZone.co.uk
And if you can't get it from any of those places, Bent
Crayon ain't likely to have it either...
