....nothing to say tonight aside from mentioning i've added Sandbox Automatic, Inc. to my commerce:: links section. brap mentioned this place to me a while ago ,but as my usual sloth-like ways go...i've really only just begun to investigate it. if you are a fan of hip-hop but seem to have a hard time finding the smaller label stuff you would be well advised to check them out.

...a quote from their about us page::
...At last count there were over 2300 different items available to order, one of the largest specialty hip-hop catalogs anywhere in the world.

As one of the oldest, most established and experienced companies in the industry, Sandbox also continues to be one of the most innovative and customer friendly businesses around. The shopping cart system is considered one of the fastest and easiest to use. You will not see any annoying, slow-loading banner ads on any pages - they are not accepted here. Live phone support is available 5 days a week to answer your questions and concerns. As one of the only online hip-hop retailers based in New York City, proximity to key distributors, labels and other storefront record shops ensures that orders will be filled promptly, accurately and as complete as possible. You are free to venture elsewhere for hip-hop news, reviews, discussions, articles and interviews, but when it comes to fulfillment of records, CD's, tapes, gear and books paid for by your hard-earned money, Sandbox has long proven to be one of the very best.
