One of my free vinyl plus shipping orders was cancelled, the one I actually wanted. Disappointing. Edit: And they cancelled the second. Oh well. bagina fucked around with this message at 18:00 on Jul 11, 2023 |

LP120 is $250 for prime day. That's about as good as you'll ever find it, these days. https://a.co/d/30o0Wvx That shortened link might have someone else's referral link in it, I can't strip it out on mobile.

grabbed some stuff from Newbury    I grabbed the Bartees album since I heard a song of his from a different album I liked on Spotify, and this one was like 11 bucks. Love the colors, album not bad either! Elliott is Elliott. I've heard this album a million times and I love this color on the vinyl. I also ordered a copy of his album XO on amazon but that's coming in like a week.

 I finally bit on it and bought this album I've wanted forever. Really wish they'd do a reissue for this band but I strongly doubt it will happen

Heath posted:Was there ever any explanation for what happened there? Just that email. My only guess is they oversold stuff (as evidenced by the person earlier in the thread having theirs cancelled), and now they're getting confused about who to give refunds to.

I just got this in and I thought it would just going to be gloss, but the sleeve is like textured parchment and it makes it look like the whole sleeve was just made by hand with ballpoint pen:

Came across a record on Spotify of all places. I've been looking for this one for a while and actually wasn't sure that it received a wide release. Discogs prices hover around $50 which is hell no for a 45 (but loving tempting.) The original is a fuckin' jam. Sounds like one of those oldies/low rider comp deep cuts. In fact I thought it was a cover at first. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPLhTzq-TpY But this version with Y La Bamba, I dunno, just haunting and transcendent stuff. Blows me away. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvPWrepHW5c Good poo poo. Oh and it was $17 shipped which is normally a no for a single but this is definitely a top five song for my wife and I.

 Went to Dearborn Music today since my birthday is tomorrow, walked out with this. Bought for myself: American Football - LP2 Bright Eyes - Fevers and Mirrors Bought for me by fiancee: The Academy Is - Almost Here JoJos Bizarre Adventure Golden Wind OST 1 I was looking through the indie section and my fiancee was trying to get my attention and I'm engrossed, like "honey give me a sec" and I finally turn around and see the JoJo OST on the wall display and she's like "you see it right?" Quite a fun find that I didnt even know was on vinyl let alone expecting to find it in some store in Dearborn MI.

Yeah I ordered something Friday and it shipped yesterday. And all the stuff I ordered from the week before got here. I can’t actually read the thread because I don’t have a Twitter account, what’s the cliff notes of what’s happening?

Lol go figure but fitting because it's pretty much the same song and dance as twitter. The VMP CEO took over and has made a ton of bad changes. Staff got gutted, fees got increased, there's a massive scam bot problem, there's virtually no support system anymore...real ugly stuff.

TheMightyBoops posted:Yeah I ordered something Friday and it shipped yesterday. And all the stuff I ordered from the week before got here. He says they hired a new CEO, which doesn't seem to be true. The VMP guy was hired as COO, but it looks like the same guy is still in charge that always has been. He said there was also recent layoffs, which I can't easily confirm or deny because it's impossible to google "discogs+anything" and get any useful results about the company lol. This supposedly has lead to an increase in scam sellers and terrible customer support for buyers and sellers. Finally, most of the complaints are about increasing marketplace fees in various ways, which is making ebay a more appealing marketplace for sellers.

https://twitter.com/mikesimonetti/status/1680932748259631107?s=46&t=t8CFjI5-v0IxaoLh38KSzw Maybe record store owners can price their records according to their local markets instead of just lazily looking it up on discogs and adding x%? Perhaps?  How did record stores ever exist before someone made a website, huh.

Nihonniboku posted:What's wrong with that listing? The listing reads it's a UK DJM copy, the label clearly shows it's a US MCA. For those who are unaware, there's a huge gulf in sound quality between UK Elton John records and US copies (much in the same vein as The Beatles). Great opportunity for scammers to get some cash.
