Crazytiger.net - New venture from old CD-WOW team

Post by EvaUnit02 »

I got this in an email, it seems to be from the same hosts as BangCD.

Once upon a time… (actually around the start of this century) there was a bunch of really cool people who realized the public needed a cheaper source of fresh CDs and prime DVDs. They resented paying 13 pounds for a CD and knew you did too. So they started a groundbreaking website called CD-WOW.com. They sourced the best music at the best prices from all over the world, and passed those savings on to the overjoyed consumer. Not only that, but postage was free, and the service and support was the best around. The world was happy and everyone was smiling!

But then the big bad companies started giving them a hard time, as they didn't like the idea of a bunch of rebels upsetting their profitable status quo. It didn't matter that the public wanted cheaper music, the greedy old moguls did not! Even so, imitated by many but still the original best, CD-WOW went from strength to strength. And all was well until the mean old-style companies picked a fight in the high court, and equipped with an army of lawyers and a bottomless stash of cash, persuaded some old fart in a horse-hair wig to fine the wow-ers a gazillion pounds. Boo to the mean old judge!

So they were forced to sell the company to a new cdwow (that's without the hyphen – no mistake) but it wasn't the same was it. You told us that. The company was hopeless and the service was rubbish. Boo to cdwow! (Still minus the hyphen.)

However you really can't keep a good team down. And so… we are back! Like a phoenix from the ashes of the old CD-WOW meet the new Crazy Tiger! Some of your old chums who prided ourselves in giving you the best CDs and DVDs at the lowest prices have regrouped to give you what you always wanted. Price. Service. Value.

And although we are called Crazy Tiger, we are cute and cuddly as a kitten to our friends, and only snarl at the nasty old dinosaurs of the music biz who think that expensive CDs & DVDs are the best way to keep up their fancy lifestyles of bubbles and caviar. Tigers don't do that. Call us crazy (no, really) but we know that value and service is what you want. And that's what we'll give!

So that's the story.

Anyway I'll be here every week to point you in the right direction of cool new music, great DVDs and any insider gossip that comes our way. Straight from the tiger's mouth.

Oh, and if you see a bloated executive with a bruise on his bum – then he'll have been bitten by a Crazy Tiger.

I got X-Men 2 UK BD for £8.99 but otherwise they're dosh. Even their CD prices are largely beaten by Bang CD.

That is a interesting e-mail thanks Eva. If the same team can give us CD WOW back but under a different name, I'll be very happy indeed. They used to have excellent prices, with excellent customer services.

Some good prices on BDs/DVDs:

p.s - Their "New release" CD prices are very good!

Eva's right. Crazy Tiger is the same company as Bang CD:

http://www.bangcd.com/

Their prices are pretty much identical. It looks like another case of BlahDVD owning DVD.co.uk etc...

Import R3s but not BDs. Bang CD have always sucked for DVDs/BD, good for CDs though.
