Hi everybody.

Just wanted to say that I've just received my copy of Stu Hamm's "Live Stu X 2" CD through this store. The thing is, I ordered it exactly 10 days ago and it was shipped via regular air mail. Never received anything that fast through standard shipping before. Besides, the guys at Cd Baby are really cool. Here's part of the e-mail I received after placing my order (Subject: Cd Baby loves Alvaro):

Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with
sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.

A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sure
it was in the best possible condition before mailing.

Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over
the crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that money
can buy.

We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party
marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of
Portland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, in
our private CD Baby jet on this day, Monday, March 12th.

I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did.
Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year." We're all
exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Sigh...

Amazon is great, but these guys went to the extreme in the "satisfaction guaranteed" department, I think. :cool:

CDBaby is great. That's where I get my Claudia Gomez CDs!;)
 
As nice as CDBaby is as a store I'd say it's even BETTER for artists. They really take care of you - digital distribution, credit card scanners for shows, and more resources than you can shake a stick at.

Yup. LOVE those guys. Great stuff. I'd also love for you all to go to the link in my sig and buy MY CD from them. v:O)~

Thanks in advance for your purchase!

...and just received this!:

Alvaro -

Did you get your CD OK?
Was everything perfect?

If you liked a CD you bought, please write a little review on the
musician's CD Baby page? Just click the link below, and scroll to
the bottom of the page. You'll see where it says, "WRITE A REVIEW".
It only takes a minute and would mean a lot to the artists.


The CD we sent you was:

STUART HAMM: Live Stu X 2

Of course if anything was wrong, please let me know! I'd be glad to help.

Thanks!
