XB-70 Valkyrie

Do any of you ever order from them? What is your opinion of service, speed, etc.?

Yes, I've ordered from them. Service was lovely, speed was fine. Proceed without caution.  8)

Be sure to pick up the Melodiya Shostakovich symphony cycle by Kondrashin from them as well.   $:)

Thanks. I'm amazed at how much stuff they have that can't be found on Amazon or Archiv. I enjoyed picking this stuff up in Russia for around $6 each (as opposed to nearly 3x the price), but I'm happy to be able to get them at all!

I've ordered from them via Amazon. They're a seller there.

No problems so far.



Veit Bach-a baker who found his greatest pleasure in a little cittern which he took with him even into the mill and played while the grinding was going on. In this way he had a chance to have the rhythm drilled into him. And this was the beginning of a musical inclination in his descendants. JS Bach

good seller but not all their products are in stock. Unfortunately the Shafran set I ordered a few days ago is out of stock and I'm guessing unlikely to come in.

I second the Kondrashin recommendation with enthusiasm! What an experience!  8)

Unfortunately I had to wait over a month to get it. Hope the long delay was only an exception, not the rule.  ;)

I had the joy of picking it up from the record store, a few months back. And yes, it's one of those self-recommending sets, that one. 8)

Kondrashin, on a Russian DVD thread 'off topic'? NEVER!  :-*

They're running a limited time special--buy $100 worth of merchandise and they'll throw in a Russian bride.
