do they have Florence's album discounted. Ive always wanted but can't justify the $40 for that for some reason. 

I think I read that it was UMG artists that are discounted

My webstore exclusive from The Driver Era that I waited 8 MONTHS for arrived damaged last week, and customer service initially only wanted to give me a 10% refund -which then went up to 15%   but I kept arguing and now they are sending me a replacement and I can keep the damaged copy.

 

Sometimes it's good to complain 

They NEED customers like us to keep them on their toes and hold someone accountable

It’s the the truth Had we accepted these damaged conditions we would be drinking the pickle juice. And some people think that’s a bad thing when we complain.

It's true, it's true. When i first started collecting, I never complained. I have a lot of exclusives from back in the day with some minor damage.

I'm glad I saw the light tho- we pay too much to be getting our **** in less than perfect conditions

UO is literally the worst. I updated my e-mail a few weeks ago and lost 3 of my rewards. I've now gone thru FOUR different people on the virtual chat and TWO different people on e-mail and they all say the same thing "we're looking at it, you'll get them back, we'll update you asap or 24-48 hours". its been three WEEKS and nothing.

Omg he was on Depop 3x before and I got a ton of my records from him for cheap! Seems like he’s caught on to the value of records because he previously listed stuff for dirt cheap. These prices are giving Discogs

I believe there is an option to have items packaged when you check-out. Either way, that fucken sucks and at least Amazon is good about returns/exchanges. Try chatting with customer service, asking for a replacement and the vinyl being boxed. 

Thank you, I will check for that option next time!! I guess I just never noticed/bothered because they’ve always used proper vinyl mailers in the past  But you’re right, Amazon is always a breeze with these things so it could be worse.

Y’all I am so happy because apparently Sunrise Records in Canada will be stocking the purple variant of Lizzo’s album and the orange variant of Maggie’s album… two variants I was worried I wouldn’t be able to get!!

Not our resident Swiper popping up on my Twitter feed with Halsey  I wonder how many of those concert exclusive records he snatched up only for them to collect dust

[Bandito]

Hey there everyone, I'm in a bit of a pinch right now money-wise so I decided to try and let go of some of my collection of limited edition vinyl, CDs, and other assorted autographed items. Before I go through the tedious process of listing everything on Discogs, Mercari, Depop, etc, I wanted to try and see if any fellow vinyl collectors here wanted to get first dibs on anything in my collection. Unlike others who try to charge exorbitant amounts of money, I'm just looking to get as close to what they currently resell for as possible. 

 

Here's the link to the Google document that lists all of the items that I'm currently willing to part with. If anyone is interested, please feel free to DM me with any questions / offers / requests for photos of the items and I'll be happy to respond! If the hyperlink doesn't work, I'll also put the main link in a spoiler so it doesn't make the post look ugly. Thanks for reading!

Not MARCH 2023  It’ll most likely be non-gatefold too so it’s not worth the headache 

[Power love]

Some new company is selling Aaliyah self title album. I’m really confused did black ground records steal fans money? I thought about rebuying her vinyls with the new company but i will have the record twice if we ever get it from back ground.

And no indication that it’s limited. It’ll go on sale eventually
