    UPS Freight Charge To UK For Dave's Picks 31 continued

    Ha Ha, by chance I had a UPS delivery today and the driver asked if I knew I had a delivery next week and whether I wanted to pay £73.92 now - thats like $91.50 - for postage for Dave's Picks Vol.31 (1 copy) - I do hope Rhino sort it out.

    and does anyone else get crap with reCAPTCHA?

    UPS Freight Charge to UK for Dave's Picks 31

    Just clicked the tracking link in my e-mail to check progress and I got the same message about having to pay £73.92 for shipping charges, and DP31 would be due today, but and not suprisigly the package is somewhere still in the USofA.

    Feels like a UPS/Warner/Rhino glitch which hopefully it will be sorted out soon if someone picks up on this thread..

    My subscription discs Dave's Picks Vol 31 are due to be delivered today by UPS. According to the tracking info there is a freight charge of 73.92 GBP to pay. Must be a mistake?

    Help, Where is my limited edition Europe '72 box set ?
    Dear Marye,First time user here. I need some help to find out when my ordered box set will be shipped. I received an email from Dead Store 9 days ago questioning my shipping address. I replied giving my current residential address. Nothing happened so I telephoned customer service yesterday to find out what the status is. The shipping address was corrected by Customer Service and assured everything will be OK. 28 hours have now passed since my phone call to Customer service and no shipping email has been sent. OK I know that Dead Store has problems but my anxiety about my order being finalized has not been alleviated. If you can help, lmk how to provide you with my order details.

    My Order.
    I was originally down for a limited edition 72 box set. I lost my card so I had to cancel it. Needless to say my order didn't go through. I tried repeatedly to get through but to no avail. I gave up and decided to buy the music only edition with my replacement card. I tried to contact dead.net again to ask why my card has yet to be charged. I used the international number they sent me and got Sinatra.com. I am beginning to think that this box set is never going to arrive.

    Thanks Marye! Is there any info you need from me? My store account uses a different email address than my forum email. I was never able to finish the forum registration process through my real verizon address; but when I place my orders I have to log in through here, the forum, and then it brings up all my real billing info including my real email address at the store.) It never made sense, but it's been like this for a few years! I've tried registering proper for a few years and finally broke down and registered using a hotmail account so I could get the e-mails to the link to finish registration! Really, if that part can be fixed, I'm scared to mess with any of it until I get my Europe box) lol But yeah, if you could find out if my order posted that would be cool! Gary

After 3 days I gave up. The guy in India said everything looks fine you should have your download. I told him it was not there and he told me he had to send the info to corporate and I should hear something in 5 days. This is totally unacceptable! First you say wait 24-48 hours, then I am told after 3 days have gone by that I need to wait 5 more days just to find out what the problem is. Something is really wrong!

I have three separate issues with GD-store. 1) Half of items were missing from one order. I have already paid all items. 2) Store used Fedex instead of USPS that I chose without informing me. So I had to pay more shipping costs and Fedex took their fee for customhandling. 3) Send a defective product (a watch) for replacement or refund. I havent heard anything of it since. I have tried to contact customer service many times for over a month now but they are not answering at all. Calling there is useless because I cant understand anything. My english is not good enough. I can understand that mistakes happen and there may be rush time now. But nobody is answering at all. I find this unbelievable. There is not much I can do but complain here. I live in Finland so I propably cant use any legal instruments to get at least my money back. If it was only small amount of money I wouldnt care but I have paid some 300 dollars and didnt get anything but trouble and silence. I have been ordering products from GD-store for many years but something has happened there lately. They had minor problems earlier also but they were solved in a friendly way. Now they have constantly problems and the worst thing is that they dont even bother to answer you. I think this is it for me too. Ps. Downloads have been working very good for me. I have gotten them all in reasonable time and quality and music has been good.

mixmasterI agree with this: NO DOWNLOAD On May 15th, 2009 Darxtar said: After 3 days I gave up. The guy in India said everything looks fine you should have your download. I told him it was not there and he told me he had to send the info to corporate and I should hear something in 5 days. This is totally unacceptable! First you say wait 24-48 hours, then I am told after 3 days have gone by that I need to wait 5 more days just to find out what the problem is. Something is really wrong! My 4/28-29 shows did not get released for 4 days. Now, I've been waiting 5 days for Shoreline. This sucks. LivePhish does this so much better. The band should hire Nugs.Net to do this.

On Sunday 5/17,I paid for the FLAC d/l of LA 5/9, Shoreline 5/10 & Shoreline 5/14. I am still yet to be able to access my downloads. I am aware that Shoreline 5/14 is not available yet (why I don't know), but don't understand why I can't have 5/9 & 5/10. The messages I have sent to customer service go unanswered like the last time I had an issue with an order. I don't understand why, if a show is available, d/l access is not immediately available. The system immediately takes the money from my card. But, I have to wait, and wait without even the courtesy of an explanation. The music is so good but this service is so bad. I just don't get it.

I've posted numerous times to customer service but they seem intent on ignoring me. I've ordered every release for years and while I've occasionily had issues they were always quickly resolved. I ordered the road trips/pure jerry combo. I first got just the pure jerry. Than I got just the road trips bonus disk. Since than I've just been ignored. Nobody bothers to even respond to my messages. I've been a deadhead for damn near 40 years but you're sure making this hard.

I just put an order in for the two Shoreline downloads and I went through the checkout process and everything. My card has been charged. Nothing is showing up on my downloads page. Where are my downloads? It's just a blank page. I just read through some messages in the forum pertaining to this same issue and it appears that my problem is not with my Mac as I suspected, but with the way this site does business. I ordered the Meadowlands shows on LiveDownloads and was able to download immediately. Now, it seems that I must wait for up to 10 days before I can download these shows after jumping through hoops and waiting. This is total crap, but I'm sorry. I'm going on a road trip this weekend and was depending on listening to these shows. I'm apt to go download on the other site and ask for my money back later. Please do something about this because people want to support this organization. It shouldn't be that hard to partner up with someone who knows what they're doing. If you're going to offer a product and accept money for it, you need to have a process that can deliver.

Just Keeping the music alive I ordered the new shirt, hat and hoodie.. was supposed to be shipped on the 11th. Still waiting to hear that the order is shipped or delayed. A good business would have notified me that the order was delayed. They should treat their customers like the way that they would want to be treated.

Finally, Customer Service worked with me to get my downloads working. It was actually a pretty silly issue on their end, but oh well, they're working. I did receive my shirt I ordered with the downloads. I also pre-ordered the purple shirt that was supposed to ship on the 11th and I am waiting to hear as well.

the on-site live CDs were provided by another company having nothing to do with Dead.net. As far as I know there are no plans to offer the shows in this format beyond the real-time sales, but feel free to pursue the matter with the vendor: David at service@ratdoglive.com.

If inserts is same as cd cover art and song title sleeves, I have asked customer service if they exist and if it is possible to get them. But surprisingly no answer to that question either.

Thank you for trying to help. For some strange reason I finally got an email from store. In it they cancelled order I made 01/09/2009. It was great to hear of them but that order I actually have received and paid. So there was not problem with that one at all. Real problems like missing items, vanished watch and shipping costs: nothing. Sorry everyone. This complaining makes me sick too but I cant really do anything else but to write here to get this right.

I have been investigating that issue, and I have no news. So far it is not possible to download the insert art and liner notes. With regard to your missing items, they should be on their way. PM sent.

What's so strange to me is that in the old website format (so long ago I forget what it looked like) there were inserts. The Dead Download series HAD the inserts... I bought a recent one, and no insert there. I was told they weren't available. I resolved that by posting on usenet and someone emailed me the inserts, as they had bought all the downloads a long time ago. I will get the last 4 download series I need to get them all.. but I want the inserts. I think it's a shame I have to go "third party" to get what the Dead officially released themselves. I just don't think it should be so hard. Whoever the webmaster is can easily link the album art jpg on each page, to the album art available. It used to be that way... then there was that "relaunch" like 2 years ago or so?.. and they all disappeared. In fact the entire Dead Downloads series disappeared at that time. Once they came back is when the inserts were gone.

I paid for 2 philly downloads (Order Number: 0139390Order Date And Time: 05/04/2009) but mistakenly got FLAC instead of MP3. I've called the customer service line and submitted 3 requests on-line for help having my downloads switched to MP3 some 23 days ago and still have not received a response. I'm assuming folks are busy because of the tour, but 23 days without a response has me wondering if anyone is home? Any one out there that can help?

If it means anything, i ordered it with a different email, Kyejo@comcast.net. and i ordered it with a shirt (but i dont think it does and i'm not worried about that)

For the record and in all fairness, I should say that I was contacted via phone regarding my download issue and apparently my downloads were not pulling in because I had also placed an order for two hard copy CDs with my downloads. I guess someone has to process the order before the downloads show up on one's page. I think it's kind of silly and the downloads should automatically show up, but that's how it works. Just be patient and persistent and things will work out.

Dear Marye! I have sent two messages to the customer service to report missing records. Not a single answer in more than a month of waiting! Is it some kind of trouble with the mailingsystem or am I being ignored? My complaints concernes order number 0121010 at the date of 03/25/2009. I got a package with three of the total of five titles in my order. The missing records are: Ace (Bob Weir) CD Dick's Picks, Volume 14 CD I would be glad to finally get an answer, and I still want my records.

After 3 weeks of waiting, my orders for an On the Road Tee and Gorge Poster arrived. The big issue is, I didn't get a Gorge poster but a Garcia Plays Dylan poster. I got a wrong poster sent. This is so infuriating! I guess this means having to send the wrong poster back then waiting again for what it seems weeks to get it processed and shipped, and hope I actually get the right poster. It's the weekend and phone customer service is not available. Please Help.

Letter to Casson Kauffman: (EMAIL WAS BOUNCED BACK. "NO SUCH PERSON". Dear Casson, I have to tell you at this moment I am the angriest I have ever been with any company. For the last MONTH I have tried to get this order resolved and up to this point I had not resorted to screaming and cussing. (Sorry, I just couldn't take it any more.) I dressed down your customer service people and left some caustic voice mails to your "Supervisors". I have been a loyal fan of several incarnations of the store and this one specifically. You always made it better than right if there was a screw up. So, all that being said, here is the story. A month ago I was finally able to order the SYF Hoody that is green and zippered in XXL. I have been waiting a while for this item and I was thrilled. I ordered ground shipping and it finally arrived. I opened the box. Boom, green hoodie, correct size but its a pull over. No Zipper. No worries I know I can call you guys and it will get fixed. Made the call everything is cool. They even agreed to send it 3 day for me. 5 days later. Shirt is here! (Wooo hoo) open the box...guess what right size. right color.........Another f-ing pullover. How hard can it be? I make the call. I speak to Lily Amini. She was friendly and courteous. I received an e-mail saying there was an attachment two days later. (no attachment BTW) I sent one back with the picture from your web sight. With a Zipper on it. She then sent another email with attachment of someone from the warehouse holding up what appears to be an xxl zippered hoodie! (incredible!) Fine so now I say great. overnight it to me your other two shirts are labeled and ready to roll as soon as I get my order. Lily is so nice she agrees and even tells me I can keep one of the mistakes! Wow, just like Dead.net I know and love. Next day: I get an email from Meggan. Offering me $20 gift certificate and 10% off my next order. I call her and tell her Lilly already offered me the shirt so the other stuff wasn't necessary. I find out the shirts I have nobody even knew existed!! MEGGAN says there is "No Way" she is going to let me keep the shirt, but I can have the other stuff. And on top of this I don't get my original order until the shirts are sent back. (So, now I am a potential dead beat and I still don't have my shirt.) Next Day Thursday. I call Meggan back and send an email to Lilly saying "what the heck. I'll buy the other shirts and give them as gifts. Just call me and I will give them a card #. NOTHING UNTIL THE FOLLOWING MONDAY. MEGGAN IS NOT RETURNING CALLS. FINALLY LILY CALLS AND TAKES MY CARD #, USES THE GC AND THE DISCOUNT, AND SWEARS SHE WILL OVER NIGHT MY FUCKING SWEATSHIRT! IT IS NOW WEDNESDAY EVENING. ONE WHOLE FREAKING MONTH LATER!!!! NO SHIRT. I CALL MEGAN LEAVE A MESSAGE WHAT IS GOING ON? I SIT DOWN TO READ EMAIL.....EMAIL FROM CUSTOMER SERVICE (YEAH RIGHT! CUSTOMER SERVICE!) NOT MEGAN. NOT LILY! (GOD, NO THAT WOULD BE SILLY) THE EMAIL SAYS MY ORDER HAS BEEN CANCELED. THEN AS I AM SCREAMING AT CUSTOMER SERVICE ON THE PHONE, I GET ANOTHER EMAIL SAYING "DUE TO AN INVENTORY ERROR, MY SHIRT ISN'T AVAILABLE AND I CAN HAVE 15% OFF MY NEXT ORDER!" (HOW FUCKING GENEROUS. NO REALLY.) CASSON, Can you explain to me how my shirt, that I saw in a photograph taken by your people, sworn to me that was in a box waiting to be over-nighted, could be gone? Can you tell me how your "customer service" department has no knowledge of who I can contact above Meggan and Lily? Why my bank account has not even been credited for the "canceled transaction"? Why the people you have in charge don't know what the "Service Industry" is about? And last; Why I had to write this long diatribe to you? MY EMAIL WAS SENT BACK. NO PERSON OF THAT NAME.

Okay, here's what SHOULD be happening. If it does not map to your experience speak up. 1. This site launched in May 2007. Accounts stored on previous versions of Dead.net were not copied over. 2. If you've set up an account in the Store and/or ordered from the site since then, that account info should have moved over to the new site this week. 3. If you haven't ordered and/or set up an account since May 2007, go ahead and set up a new account because we do not have that info. Like I say, if your experience is different, speak up. Thank you.
