Well i ordered a couple opeth t-shirts from them and they are based out in germany. For the past month they've been giving me problems and the latest one has said they've had trouble charging my credit card. I'm not sure if i punched the credit card number in wrong the first time or what. I just need to know if this is a good place to order from or should i take my buisness somewhere else? BTW this was the only place i could find that had Morningrise and My Arms Your Hearse t-shirts. :loco:
 
I ordered a Morningrise shirt there... Well, acutally a friend ordered it for me because I had no Credit Card at that time. There weren't any problems as far as I know... but I live in Austria - I always order from German mailorders.
 
I ordered from them lately....After a waiting period of 1 Month I told them to send me a quick update on my order. They mailed back that they're having problems with their suppliers...

Anyway...I got my morningrise shirt a few days ago....still awaiting the BWP Logo Shirt....well, I's been only 4 Months since ordering...:grin:
 
I´d say, leave your hands from metalmerchant, it´s the crappiest mailorder out there.
A friend on mine ordered some shirts there and had nothing but trouble. It took ages after he got the shirts and finally he opened the packet and noticed that metalmerchant sent him the wrong stuff. They are totally unable to organize anything there.

Maybe he will have a look into this thread and tell you the whole story...

Just one advice: Cancel your order and get the shirts from somewhere else.


[edit]
You said you couldn´t find another mailorder who offers these shirts - here are some:

www.pervertedtaste.de
www.life-mailorder.de
 
Well the main thing i'm worried about is they never sent me an order confirmation email with all the details about the order. So if they try to fuck me over i have no proof.
 
As my dear friend Verago already said: Fuck Metalmerchant, kick their ass, cancel your order and look out for a better place to get your shirts from.
At the beginning of June, I ordered three articles there: A bloodbath-shirt, a Runemagick-Shirt and a Runemagick-Album. After quite a long time I sent a mail to them in order to check the status of my order. They told me that they had problems getting the Bloodbath-shirt. Considering the fact that it would still take some time, I cancelled the Runemagick-articles cause I no more had any interest in this band. They confirmed the cancellation via mail. As a replacement for the Runemagick-shirt, I told them to send me an Orchid-shirt. This has also been confirmed. Two months after my first order I checked again and they told me they were still waiting for the Bloodbath-Shirt to be delivered and expected the delivery for the upcoming week. So I waited. 2 weeks left until my holidays in Vienna where I would need the shirts for the metalfest. And when I left for Austria, I still didn't have the shirts and had to rely on my only band T-Shirt (Still Life, the others are longsleeves / one sweetshirt -> too hot in summer). This Tuesday I returned and there was still nothing. On Wednesday, I finally got something from them. And guess what did I find inside the package? A Runemagick-Shirt (and not even the one I had ordered at the beginning!), the Runemagick-Album and the Orchid-Shirt. No Bloodbath-shirt. And they were even too daft to cancel the two RM-articles as requested. I sent them a mail in which I told them to fuck themselves (well, not that directly ;)), that I would send back the canceled articles and expect them to rebate the money for those things within one week after receiving them. They didn't even send an excuse or something, they just said I should send the shit back and give them a written cancellation and I would then get a cheque. Fuck Metalmerchant! As Verago said so perfectly - the crappiest mailorder out there. And I have no problem with spreading this declaration throughout the scene in order to prevent other innocent orderers from this... err... shop.
 
Bah this sucks, i don't know what to do. I really dont feel like cancelling and shit because it takes them like weeks to respond to your damn emails. I'll guess i'll take the risk, and if i don't have it in a month i'm gonna cancel the order. :erk:
 
They just sent me another email today, i have no idea what the hell it says. I guess they don't speak english, i had to reply and ask them what the hell they're saying. Here it is:

Your new credit cards data changed, we without

Did they send you a email back confirming the cancelation? I cancelled mine a week ago and still haven't gotten a reply.
 
Go with Displeased in Holland. I too had hassles with MM. Took forever and didn't end up getting one of the shirts they said they had in stock in the first damn place. They definitely don't have their shit together.
