What's going on w/SSD? PM if it's not appropriate to post publicly. I've done a lot of business w/them, over a month ago ordered 3 records that never showed up. Had to ask for my money back. Seth was always a good guy to do business with.

They are done, as in out of business.

It'd be nice if they noted that on the website (or at least stopped orders).

Check out is blocked; no further orders can be placed.

Oh--that's good. The site looked totally normal to me (I didn't try anything to do with checkout).

I've had issues with SoundStageDirect as well. I only ordered LP's but it's always a struggle. I have to email multiple times and finally call to ask why the in stock items haven't been shipped. Even when pre-ordering LPs they never shipped on time.

Bottom line...Never Again!!:no::no:

That is a bummer. I checked my PayPal and on July 13th they said they were issuing me a refund, still hasn't come through. Just escalated this to PayPal. It's sad to see one of the great dealers go away.

I had read somewhere that they are technically in "limbo" and that a third party was looking at acquiring the web site and business.

As always, stay tuned, it's about as exciting as whether Krell is still in business any given week. :(
