This company is the definition of the word RIP-OFF!!

They ripped off myself and 4 of my friends of our valuable money by not
sending us our requested CD's. How many others out there have they stolen 
from, and how do we put an end to their existence? Please post your comments 
here so others can be forewarned. They seem to care less when you call them, 
and apparently are getting rich and delivering nothing!! Amazing!! Only in 
America!!

        As any avid CD-buyer knows, purchasing import CD's from overseas can 
take about 6 weeks to arrive at your home, because of all the legalities 
involved. SOUND CITY 2000 uses this as a means to swindle purchasers. When I 
eventually realized that I wasn't going to get my disc, I called my credit 
card company and they said that the original order occurred to far in the past 

to refund my money. 

        Oh, by the way, another tactic that SOUND CITY 2000 uses is to send no 

refund back to purchaser until THEY DECIDE THAT THE DISC IS OUT OF PRINT!!!
That's the only way to get your money back. In my case, they said that they 
had no record of my order, even though I still have the original purchase 
order. I've since reported this to the FCC, but they have not gotten back to 
me as of yet.

here's 2 other companies that deliver what they promise:

        CD Europe - cdeurope.com

        CD Connection - cdconnection.com



        ONCE AGAIN, WARN ALL YOUR FRIENDS.....S O U N D  C I T Y  2 0 0 0  

        IS A RIP-OFF!!!  AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS!!  (no pun intended)
