Corporate Punishment Records is having a sale but it's all a trick.
They honestly steal your money and do not send you any product.
I feel bad that David Reilly had to deal with such scummy people but that's what they are.
Please stay away from them.
I've heard this from other people and experienced this myself.

1st time poster here...

When I ordered from CP, I had the same issue. I then opened a case with PayPal due to a lack of responce from CP. Amazingly, they responded and semd me my goods. Funny how that works.

If people that pissed off at CP and CP is no longer sending the goods, I've got no problem putting up the mp3s on my webspace somewhere for people to grab them....

Hello folks,

I have to admit, I ordered the David Reilly Inside CD twice from Corporate Punishment, and received nothing. There was no way to track the order and no way to get through to anyone at the corporate headquarters. PayPal refused to refund my money because of the nature of the purchase. Finally, a kind GLU soul I befriended helped me out with the tracks.

Eventually, nine months after placing the order, Corporate Punishment sent me one (1) of the CDs, but before that first CD came in I was feeling rather frustrated with the whole process. There's something about having the physical thing, and the liner notes, etc. And I had, after all, paid for it. It wasn't like Corporate Punishment wasn't around at all. They sure knew how to collect my money. They were right on the ball with that. Other companies don't take your money until the item is in the mail, Amazon for example. That's the professional thing to do.

It just feels kind of sad. I know CP has some kind of connection to that Mantis/Rooster Show thing, whatever that was. Here's a clip from his own story about being DR's manager: "David did the tour, it was a disaster, and he came home and promptly sent me the longest text I had ever seen in my life, firing me. ( Luckily he got over it the next day.) The most ironic part was the CD'S weren't even ready for the tour, and ended up coming out a few weeks after it ended."

Can't this dude get his act together, even now? He has INSIDE for chrissakes.

I'm sorry to hear of the issues with CP. I was fortunate enough to get a couple copies when the cd first came out.

I won ! Paypal awarded me money!
After I got Corporate Punishment Records reimbursement I also got 4 mean spirited emails from Corporate Punishment (more than sore losers-just losers) THEY ARE EVIL.
The reason I'm spouting off about this is because this is the FINAL nail in the coffin-IF YOU DON'T already OWN David Reilly - Inside EP then you never will.
This is sad but Corporate Punishment records has taken that away from the man.
When it was first released back in 2004 I ordered 4 copies, 4 months later I received only 2 copies.
Still I was in bliss, now being 27 years old I find this to be disgusting.

I really want to buy it but due to this discussion there's no way I'm ordering anything from Corporate Punishment. Is too bad.

wasn't inside on a limited quantity basis for some time now? if there's any issue maybe it's just because they are out.

If that's true they're responsible for letting people know that in some way. Either way they're dropping the ball and it seems to be the norm.
