    We think the technical issues that caused so many difficulties have been resolved.

    If you are unable to log on using the email address you previously used in your Store account, please try setting up a new account. 

    If you are unable to complete an order online and get the Call Customer Service error message, your quickest path to getting this resolved is to actually call 1-800- CAL-DEAD (or 201 751 6746 for non-U.S. folks). Or email customerservice@dead.net.

    If this does not work for you send me a PM with the details and we'll get on the case. But at this point it SHOULD work and we want to know if and how it doesn't.

    Thanks!

    Any Word??
    I am begining to think that Meggan took this personally and has put my order on hold or something. It has been 3 weeks since I placed the order and now I am just thinking my money is history since they wont send me the cd that they have my money for. Thanks for being such a "kind" representation for the GD.

    I ordered a cd over 2 weeks ago and it still hasnt shipped. I was told that it was shipping soon a week ago. I guess soon is relative. Never had problems here before and it sucks that it is happening now.

    old GDstore.com gift card
    Hi, don't know if this is the proper place to post this but here goes! I bought my husband a gift card several years ago from dead.net (I believe the store was then managed by gdstore.com) The gdstore.com is defunct, musictoday.com used to manage it but hasn't for over a year. They told me to contact you for assistance; we still have about $75 on the card and I would like to use it here! I have called customer service numerous times, only to have the pleasant recorded voice say that all agents are busy and to leave a detailed message (which I have done several times with no response). Any thoughts, words, advice??Thanks!

    GDM needs to update customer service info
    The first log in this thread gives the name of Casson Kauffman as a customer service agent as well as her epost address. Which does not received eposts from customers. She probably no longer works in that job...so the info should l be updated, rather than just be left uncorrected. Are we on the same page here?

    Grateful Dead Merchandising's shortcomings in the internet age
    Well, sometimes orders get filled and sent properly, but often they do not. Comparing GDM with Amazon.com dealers, the latter represent a standard that GDM does not in my experience match. Even close. Look, I like dealers with personality, but I expect that they pay enough attention to their job to do things defensibly. I feel that GDM personell simply do not know how to do internet business. My Christmas wish is for Mr Weir to arrange an organizational shakeup. GDM has generally long delivery periods ("Buffalo", an extreme case, was 55 days in transit to Oslo Norway) whereas Amazon dealers manage regularly sendings of half these periods. At the end of August, I ordered Egypt and Road Trips vol 4. I got an order confirmation and nothing else, so I waited for the release and then a month longer. Getting nothing, I sent an e-post inquiring about the delay. Customer Service replied that my credit card, the same one used to buy many other GD products had been rejected and therefore the order was unilaterally cancelled---without notifying me about this. So I had no chance to arrange a rectification. GDM personell are apparently unaware that master cards are now and then rejected for no known reason, posssibly some systematic glitch. The advice from Master Card is to try it again the next day. Amazon and for example Spin cds have routines which guarantee that in case of card rejection the card holder is notified. These routines appear to be state of the art. But GDM does not have them. Dealing with GDM is too often absolutely frustrating. I do not understand why people who cannot implement state of the art routines are working for GDM in the internet area. And I wish they were not.

I got an email that my download pre-order (G000145433US) of Rum Runners was now ready, with a link to download, and...clicking the link gives me a bit of XML saying "The specified key does not exist". The key in the XML is "TBD", which seems, you know, wrong.

Going to my orders on dead.net, you get "we're switching systems, you might not see your past orders". Indeed, I do not.

Contacting support (ticket: 427982) is apparently shouting into the void. It has been two weeks without a reply.

Contacting y'all here may, too, be shouting into the void. Last post here was in 2023 ;)

halp?
