Ordered placed online on 18th May. Money was taken from my account, a purchase confirmation was received & 3 weeks later I haven’t received the product or had had an update. It’s been 3 weeks. I’ve tried to contact sanity & heard nothing. Disgusting!!!
Made order and payments come out but no order came and no notification of being put into back order until an Unknown timeframe apparently. Now apparently I can choose another item or cancel order on an item I really would like to own and have already waited ages for and was falsely advertised as in stock and available..... Talk about getting… Read more
someone's hopes high for nothing!!!! ...... Not even an offer of compensation for my time or the misleading information upon ordering, or forthe mess around, or for the mere fact they took away my choices e wether to wait out the back order process and continue paying or what I want to do, or for the mere fact I had to chase this up with no information about any of it from them .... As a customer I should not have to chase up my order to find out where it is... If it gets put to back order it should not be faley advertised ass available and in stock, and should not be able to be purchased and especially paid for in advance while my order is awaiting an indefinite timeline ...... And if put onto back order why still take payments,.. shouldn't the payments be put into back order also ?? But mostly communicate with the customer and if there is an accidental mishap maybe inform the customer affected and perhaps offer options available to them and maybe even something to compensate for the falsely advertised apparently available and in stock item that you charge customers for. I have made orders in the past with them and not once had an issue but this is extremely disappointing to say the least

Been waiting for a pre-order item that was purchased way back in Feb 2026. We could have waited and is willing to wait for the item to become available but no effort from their team to reply back to our messages on any update. The money used to purchase that item is from my son’s saving acct. He was really sure that it is coming soon but I have… Read more
already put in his young mind that we have been scammed. Shame on you luring young ones to purchase your products and shame on you advertising and putting a company logo that says Great service!!! Not a great service at all!!!! We need that money back!

My Grandson absolutely loves his Vinyl set for his birthday. It did take a little longer than expected, but I didn’t count the weekend in between. Otherwise no issues. Ordering online was an easy process.
Cd arrived broke on arrival. No clear way to request a refund. Sent a request via the website but no response.
Hi Sabrina
I am sorry this was damage din transit. We can send you a replacement case if you would like?
Still waiting. Two weeks after paying for my order no news about it, beyond the "on back order" a few days after contacting you to request a possible estimate for delivery times. Now on day 36, or 5 weeks, or 23 working days since placing the order. No news since you last answered my previous review earlier in the month. You don't deserve any start at all. I am not willing to accept anymore excuses from you and I will request my money back.
Hi L. Di Noi I can see this backorder item normally takes… Read more (+1 reply)
Having the rare stuff due to the age of the product (for me it's CDs) really helps. I normally shop stuff that I grew up with or am late to discover.
I searched all over for affordable CDs of the Jacques Loussier Trio Play Bach series (specifically #3) and found Play Bach '4 Classic Albums' at a great price in a two CD pack.
Very happy with my purchase and very quick delivery. Will definitely be buying more.
I have been buying from sanity for years and will continue for many more while it’s available

I ordered Nashville seasons 5-6 DVD box set back through the online store back on the 9th of April and still haven't received it yet, I've no communication from Sanity regarding my order but they do like spamming my email address with offers and… Read more
were quick to take my credit card payment, yet don't seem too keen to send my order out, I miss the bricks and mortar store I used to buy from, they always had what I wanted in stock and I could have it straight away, I hope I'm not grey and wrinkled by the time i receive DVD's. I think I'll use ebay next time.
Follow-up · I've contacted them and waiting on a response, no tracking number as yet and no estimated delivery as my order seems to be on back order still, it's almost 2 months since I placed my original order. I placed the order before I set up my Sanity online account and my order can't be linked so I'm disappointed with my whole experience so far, hopefully I'll see my DVD's soon, maybe before Christmas if I'm lucky.

my only problem with online sanity is your lack of communication, .like i would put a order in and i get confirmation of order, then i would hear nothing for 2 weeks, and i have no idea whats going on with my order
Mistakenly bought a HD blue ray disc that I could not play in my player. Took some time to return seeking an exchange. Instead I was given a full refund no question asked. Subsequently bought a disc I could play. Very happy with the outcome.
Ordered a set of three Noel Coward CDs; not everyone's cup of tea so they're a bit hard to get. Sanity provided great service. A brand new set, they arrived quickly, were well packaged and very competitively priced. Thank you very much.
Negative reviews
Fast delivery. Cheap prices. Issue with one cd which was not sealed and had damage. Offered 10% off. Pretty average tbh. Amazon service online much better for similar issues.
I was prompted to review my item and experience, so here I am. I ordered an item on 1 May that said “in stock with supplier, ships in 7 days”. I haven’t had any other contact from Sanity in the last 18 days. I wouldn’t have come here to review other than they asked me to. So not sure how else to rate them - they took my money, told me it’d ship… Read more
by a date, told me they’d let me know when it was on the way, ghosted for two-thirds of a month. Here we are.

Placed a preorder in April for dispatch in May, waited a month and received no shipping updates by late May. Followed up, no response from customer service then I received a generic email detailing shipping is delayed until late DECEMBER!! Still no direct response to my emails from customer service. Scam to get customers through the door and preordering from them, then not delivering on their promise. Would not recommend.

Ordered a 4K UHD disc on 14 April which was stated as "Ships within 7 days" and still has not been sent yet as of 7th May and no contact advising there has been any issue with the order or availability. Im happy to wait but as Sanity is an Online service only nowadays, you would think the automation available would provide updates if thebdelivery is expwcted to be late.

I still have not received my order from 17 April & cannot understand why it is taking so long to arrive! I ordered this for my friend who is undergoing chemotherapy because she loves the music & I thought it would cheer her up but, in the meantime, she is now on Spotify so this CD will be superfluous to her needs. I thought it would arrive within days but now my well-intentioned gift will be unnecessary. I would not order from Sanity again.

Paid for express post but still took nearly two weeks to arrive, the postage time was ok but pressing time took ages, a week before even notifying it’s been processed, I don’t think they actually have stock but order in from supplier.

Ordered 1 vinyl record online - 7 day delivery timeline. Been inundated with promo emails but Have not had any follow up regarding online order despite contacting Sanity. Have requested a refund and waiting for Sanity to confirm. Online reviews are scathing and all with similar issue - no communication and no delivery. Would not recommend anyone use Sanity.

I purchased several DVD's. However, I have written to Sanity possibly three times, I wanted to find the number of our elite voucher. I had misplaced ( that is what I think). The last two times I contacted Sanity I was given the wrong number twice. I was very surprised at the decline in what was once a very good store and the customer service was exceptional.

Living in a small South Australian town & having nowhere to purchase music or DVD's, I placed an online order for a DVD which was dispatched quickly & Sanity notified me about tracking my order. My parcel arrived intact & Australia Post also kept me updated with my delivery & parcel collection point. I will definitely use Sanity again and I highly recommend the store.
