Flamenco Connection still has a website, however the email address does not work.
( The "excuse us while we remodel" message under the contact link has been there for quite a while)
Does anyone have a current email address for them?
There is no phone number listed. Are they still an active business? Thanks!

Joana,

Guillermo Juan Christie owned and ran the Flamenco Connection, and for the past nine or ten years the Guitar Gallery in Washington, DC, which he bought from Paco de Malaga. I used to go into the Guitar Gallery and chat with Guillermo from time to time. Nevertheless, the Guitar Gallery went out of business sometime last year, and I have not seen Guillermo for quite some time. As the Guitar Gallery and the Flamenco Connection were pretty well integrated, I'm not sure if the Flamenco Connection is still in business either.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the reply. I ordered many of my dance dvds from him many
years ago via the website and he gave great service. I still use
the dvds. I am so sorry to hear that his retail store has closed.

Joana

I have:

(888) FLAMENCO
(703) 533-3215
(703) 352-5825 (Fax)

The 888 number rings, and gives a nondescript answering machine. I didn’t leave a message.

The e-mail I have is flamenco@erols.com.

All of the above are from 2006, I’m afraid.

I placed an order with them for some Encuentro stuff at the end of January, two months ago. They e-mailed me an order confirmation and shipped the order promptly. I received it quickly, and got exactly what I ordered. But yes, their website is messed up a bit.

This is the contact information that was in the order confirmation they sent me:

Flamenco Connection

I called and left a message on the 703-352-5825 number but then I went ahead and ordered on their website a book by Oscar Herrero Volume 1 today. A lady called me back in the afternoon saying Vol 1 is on back order, and that she has Volume 2 if I wanted it. It would take several weeks from Spain, she said.



mark indigo -> RE: Flamenco Connection (Oct. 23 2015 23:37:34)

mark indigo -> RE: Flamenco Connection (Oct. 24 2015 8:06:07)

any current info/reviews appreciated, anyone bought from them mail order recently?



gmburns -> RE: Flamenco Connection (Oct. 24 2015 21:01:45)

I just checked out the site and noticed something.

The "Contact Us" page leads to the "under construction" page.

The "Other Links" page leads to their contact info. Not sure if they know that. I may drop them a line to let them know.

THey didn't show up at the DC feria this spring...my understanding was they were going through a move and big transitions so all their stock was in warehouse storage, so they didn't bother selling it. But far as I know they are still "open for business" by phone.

mark indigo -> RE: Flamenco Connection (Nov. 9 2015 16:41:40)

update re questions I asked earlier in thread - I posted questions as I saw some stuff on their website that I couldn't find on the Spanish sites I sometimes buy from.
But their website seemed a bit odd, I found the same items listed on different pages at different prices, and couldn't get the shopping basket/cart to work - it wouldn't let me put anything in it or buy anything, and kept asking me to log in, even after I had set up account and logged in repeatedly....

I tried to check out their actual address on the ground and found two addresses, one of them with a guitar shop that seemed to have closed down, so I was a bit dubious.

Anyway, I emailed them and got helpful replies, but I still couldn't get the website to accept an order, so I called them and placed an order by phone.

I emailed a couple of days later to check if the order had shipped and they sent me a UPS tracking number and the package arrived safe and sound a few days later, so all turned out well.

The shipping costs are no more than ordering stuff from Spain, and their website seems to have a good selection, so I would order from them again if I could get the website/shopping cart to work properly.



Richard Jernigan -> RE: Flamenco Connection (Nov. 9 2015 16:50:36)

I ordered from them several times in the past with good results, but not recently. One annoyance was that the web page that requested your credit card details was not encrypted, so I never used it, phoning in my orders instead. I mentioned the lack of encryption each time I ordered. They said something to the effect of, "Yes, we have to get that fixed," but they had not, the last time I looked a few months ago.
