I ordered a book from Flamenco World by David Leiva and received an acknowlegement that it had been sent on 4 March. I'm still waiting. Despite two emails, I have received no reply. If I don't receive it next week, I may have to cancel my payment with Amercian Express. Items I had ordered used to arrive fairly quickly. I hope this time is only exceptional.

Perhaps remind them of their slogan:

Flamenco-world.com is only possible thanks to our customers' orders in our online store

Got another reply from them today that it has been sent by FedEx, which means it'll arrive when I'm not in.

I think they're excellent!

I ordered two books in December and didn't get them so by the end of January I reported this to Paypal who refunded my money in full.

Then at the end of February I received both books.

It is a shame that the biggest flamenco site online is having these issues.

Living in Canada as I do, I have always been reluctant to order from them. They are an excellent resource for research however.

They are also fakers.

I once wrote a not 100% positive critique about a product. I wasnt wordbashing it.. It got deleted immediately. So for what is the feedback-option if all other than positive feedback gets deleted?

I once bout from another shop here in europe some encuentro books. After 4 weeks they didn´t arrive. I phoned em and told them that they have half a week starting from the call to send me the books. The books didn´t come, I told my bank to put the money back on my account. After that happened they called me from the shop and moaned very angrily. But,.. no product, no money. Its that simple. Now I don´t know where to buy flamenco books.. I don´t know a serious distributor. Maybe la sonata. At least I know people who know these guys personally. And I know where they are,..so in case of trouble..I could send my Moroccan friends over there with some rusty fireplace pokers.
