Well, here is one of those subscribers. It seemed like a sensible thing to do at that time to save on postage costs to Australia. Quote

sidewinder Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 1 hour ago, Pim said: I payed with PayPal. I guess that means I can’t do really anything right? Worth checking the PayPal receipt that they normally email. For foreign transactions there is usually a time limit for contending transactions I think. Might be worth giving their office in your country a call. Quote
mjazzg Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 And if you haven't got the emailed receipt any longer just search for the transaction in your PayPal account. From memory it's a 180 day limit for claims though. Quote
sidewinder Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 I think the 180 days is correct - at least that's what it says on my receipt. Good luck in any case. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 Oh dang, checked the website. It does seem like they went belly-up!! Unfortunate, especially for those who paid upfront. Quote
Smith Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 Let me know if anyone manages to track down Matt, or any contact info for him beyond the Nimbus West email address he's ignoring. If he went broke and he intends to leave folks in the lurch the least he could do is own up to it and say so - happy to provide that opportunity. Quote

If he went broke and he intends to leave folks in the lurch the least he could do is own up to it and say so - happy to provide that opportunity. Will never happen. For instance, if he's lawyered up (which is very possible), no attorney would let him do that. Best hope for any kind of statement (which would be bland and generic) is if this causes a big enough stink to get media attention. Which I doubt. Edited January 4 by T.D. Quote
Smith Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 That's fine. It's a well-connected board, just curious if anyone knows my man. PMs are open. Quote
Smith Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 Just got an email from Matt as follows. Told him I'd be updating others as well. Hopefully he gets everything sorted out health-wise. Quote Hello, The IUCC discs will be arriving within the next 5-10 days and shipment will commence immediately- my friend Rebecca (nimbuswest.recordings@gmail) is helping with label operations now and ALL ORDERS WILL DEFINITELY BE FULFILLED, there was never a plan to run off with anyones $$, i promise you that… I acknowledge that i personally should have been more open about the reasons for the delays, but as it involves intimate details about my own declining heath, it’s been seriously tough to admit and open up about in any meaningful way. It is no excuse though and i understand there are many upset people.. With Rebecca here, things are set up now so that no matter what happens to me, the remaining cd/vinyl releases will be unimpeded by further delays. the last 3 IUCC releases are currently finishing up the final stage of physical production and shall be delivered to all in the coming weeks- kind regards / bright moments Matt ps / we’re working on the website / will return soon Quote

He definitely needs help running the business of course. It’s so great he kees the Nimbus legacy alive but it probably takes more from him than he can take at the moment. Quote
rostasi Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 (edited) Wow! That's got to be the most dichotomous of any answer I've ever seen. Good news and bad news! Like a dual-impact message! Edited January 4 by rostasi Quote

sidewinder Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 (edited) Thanks for communicating this @Smith - I'm sorry to hear of Matt's illness and will hang fire with any claim for the time being. Edited January 4 by sidewinder Quote
king ubu Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 Thanks for sharing @Smith – I put my order in with Soundohm and wrote them a few hours ago, asking about what's going on ... meant to ask them about shipping whatever they already have in stock for a while. Quote
felser Posted January 4 Report Posted January 4 Thanks for the update. Wishing Matt and all here the best. Quote
Pim Posted Sunday at 04:24 PM Report Posted Sunday at 04:24 PM DustyGroove is mentioning the last releases now. I'd say that's a positive sign: https://www.dustygroove.com/item/203712/Pan-Afrikan-People-s-Arkestra:Live-At-IUCC-2-24-80?cat=jazz&incl_cs=1&no_incl_in=1&sort_order=release_date The website is still defunct though....
