For the record... Ear/Rational is a great place to do business and I even get the stuff shipped before they (Dave and Dan) receive payment (of course I've done business with Dave for years). I think there has been a lack of commitment to the business lately though while Dave does other, more scholarly, things. You will get your stuff. MC

There's no "STORE" as you might be made to believe. Just a guy doing business from his home.... a friend of mine sent in an order and never received a thing. When he emailed to complain, he got an instantly defensive reply that he didn't do anything wrong, and that the order was never received, even though the money order was cashed by someone that signed it EAR/Rational... so who knows. I don't know anything else but what I was told. This could be a GREAT place to do business... which may even send out items before receiving payment (like a certain "SPECIAL PERSON" {in his own eyes} likes to brag once in a whileee) but I would be CAUTIOUS and use a personal check only, send it certified, and pay for shipping insurance (like JAZZY!) <> <>

I can't explain your friends experience, but I've never been less than happy with EAR/Rational. I really don't care if it's just a guy doing business out of his home, since the selection's great, the pricing is unbeatable, and Dave is a really nice guy. And he doesn't insult your intelligence by setting prices that end in .99 either. :) I recommend EAR/Rational to everyone. He really doesn't specialize in hard-to-find vinyl, but if its on CD he can get it for you. -arjun

This sounds like a very unusual occurrence with EAR/Rational. I've been doing business with Dave for several (~5) years on a fairly regular basis, and have ordered several hundred dollars worth of stuff. The only complaint I have is that sometimes UPS breaks my jewel cases in transit. Dave has always bent over backward to make sure things have been right; I trust him. __ Ben Cox cox@transarc.com

yeah! who cares if you do business out of yer home... less overhead which allows for cheaper prices! (although no credit cards accepted;(
