Someone just tried scamming me on eBay, claiming they received the standard black pressing of the colour pressing I sent to them.  I am fortunate enough that eBay sided with me and paid the buyer on my behalf instead. Anyway, he made the mistake of using his work address and personal mobile number in his postage details. 

 

I have sent a formal complaint to the company he's working for, including the CEO. On top of this I also opened a case against him on National Fraud Intelligence Bureau for review. The fact that he basically got the record I sold to him for free doesn't sit right with me, I ain't letting him off that easy. 

 

The person who scammed me, if you're an ATRL member, I truly hope you rot. 

I’m glad you’re going to extreme lengths and not letting it fly. There’s a special place in hell for people who pull that ****. That should be multiple strikes on their eBay account (a deletion even, imo). Who knows who else they’ve done it to on other commerce platforms! Happy for you that eBay sided with you. My advice would be to always take pictures of what you’re sending out, from the record to the packaging process — on video! But you shouldn’t have to do that.

Not the standard Aaliyah being pushed back to December 20th when almost everyone has the VMP version. Blackground is such a fraud.

This is why I prefer selling stuff locally. Too many shady people online.

Those things are never coming. Barry is such a scammer.

Has anyone heard of any updates on the Love Sux vinyl? According to this page on Target it's supposed to release a month from now but I haven't heard much news about it so far.

How do you go about that though? I have more than enough stuff of my own that I would like to rid of, but selling thru sites like Mercari and Depop are the only way it seems.

At this point, I don't know what is worse Barry stealing people's money or Iggy's signed vinyl delay mess?

If I see another gay Swiftie show up on my Twitter with all four Midnights variants and call them "vinyls" I think I'm going to lose my mind

I’m tired of seeing/hearing about that damn album altogether. Her fans are so annoying.

Oh, you know I had to throw my shots  I wish the moderator would tell them to chill because it’s spam at this point  

[Kings.]

Anywho, I went into Barnes & Noble earlier and it was a MESS. The vinyl section was nothing more than four small cardboard bins with records literally shoved into them, so much that you couldn’t even flip through the records  I had to take a good amount out just to flip through and when I did you could see that a lot of the records were damaged   Oh, and Adele’s section for 30 (which was full) was priced at 25% off

I fear that even at 90% off they still wouldn't move.

I use OfferUp, Facebook marketplace, and Nextdoor. I only accept venmo or cash and meet in a public area with a friend. I think it's easy for me to sell stuff locally because I live in a pretty gay area.

Taylor Swift probably has another 4 variants for that 3am version of her boring album + 3 variants of a re-recordings.

Kylegend Minogue is ready to clog up the plants. And rightfully so.
