Just an update, I ended up going with the 3 month plan, but VMP were extremely, ludicrously accommodating to my situation. Because I explained I only really wanted DD, they gave me a bit of a discount on the 3 month. Have never known a company to be so facilitating and compassionate. I think I actually might stay on after the 3 months because I'm just blown away with their customer service.

Ooh, neat. Was thinking of picking this up myself at some point.

You will most likely get the second print with is with the black records and not the color ones. The only issue I have is that my cardboard front side is warped.

 

[Dan-o]

You'll definitely like Sea Change.

My copy arrived today, and yup. It's great. Even my wife loves it

 

[Crayons]

This album was hard to find but I got it

Nice I got this a few weeks ago. It was £7, which is easily the cheapest I've seen it online. Perfect condition too

 

[Dan-o]

Very nice!

 

[123rl]

Very nice!

Anthology is one of my favourite Thrice songs and this acoustic version sounds incredible. So much passion and emotion in his voice

Loving it! And am taking notes.


Edit: just returned from a flea market here in Berlin and I cannot believe how lucky I was

The Yamashirogumi is mindblowing!

 

[123rl]

I just picked up an orange bootleg of Pearl Jam - Ten. The original release sounds much better than the remixed version from a few years ago. I'm listening to it now and it sounds lovely but it's reminded me of what an absolute classic album this is, even to this day.

 

[Cosmic Bus]

The Yamashirogumi is mindblowing!

That's gotta be the maybe-not-entirely-official reissue from a few years ago? If it's an original, then man, you hit a jackpot.

 

[wenis]

if it were an OP it's in amazing condition.

 

[Dan-o]

Comparing that pic with the art on discogs, it would appear that that copy is the reprint.

Agreed. Not bad though! Still an awesome find. I mean that thing still sells for like 30 for 40 bucks USD even as an unofficial reprint haha

 

[wenis]

some new pickups/deliveries this week

 

[BaronLundi]

Carpenter Brut live 2xLP is up for pre-order.

Damn, it's been a while since I've posted. I think this is everything I've gotten since then. I'll just do a shot of the discog library, too.

How's the pressing of that Elliott Smith album? XO is one one of my favorite albums, but I've heard really mixed about that Plain Recordings pressing.

Yes, definitely reprints. I also went back to that guys store the other day and got the Akira Symphonic Suite reissue amongst other stuff

 

[Snaku]

Been a while since I've made any vinyl purchases. Very happy with these two. So glad to finally have my favorite Horner

[123rl]

Very nice. I want both

I picked up some new records in a sale today. UK GAF, HMV have a huge sale on this week. I got two Snow Patrol albums and The Who - BBC Sessions for £7.99 each

 

[LaneDS]

Oh no shit, the Akira reissue is out? Looks like it may have been out for a while even after searching online. Anyone have a good source to pick one up from? Was thinking about this driving home yesterday oddly enough.

I'm pretty sure that's a different Akira release.
Milan Records says their version isn't due until later this year...

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Uh, why didn't anyone tell me Nickelback was putting a bunch of their stuff out on vinyl!?

I legit preordered The Long Road. I used to love that album back in high school.

My last ones. Loving the gold vinyls from RTJ. Also really happy with Opgezwolle's Eigen Wereld, Dutch hiphop classic.

 

[wenis]

I'm selling some records. Figure I should let some of you folks know about it here before I take any unsold ones to the record shop to trade-in. I can only ship out on saturdays as I work during the week.

List is HERE

I'm just trying to reduce how much space these guys take up and am still combing through my collection for more to add. PM me if you're interested.

Hey, everyone.

I was wondering if this is the right place to ask on record player advice(advice, repair/
replacement of parts, etc)?

I was inherited a big record player and need some assistance on getting it playing. Thank you!

Going to quote myself from the VG vinyl thread to see if I get more feedback:

How prevalent is scamming on Discogs? Ordered a vinyl (non-gaming, sorry!) and while the guy's page listed "credit card and bank transfer" in messages and the invoice he pretty much insisted on an international wire transfer. Despite being a member from 2012 all his sales feedback is from this month, so I decided to cancel the order after finding out wiring money internationally isn't super easy (plus, of course, it seemed shady as heck). Anyone run into that kind of thing before? Not willing to gamble the money to find out if it's legit, since it's a rare release.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

Going to quote myself from the VG vinyl thread to see if I get more feedback:

Scams occasionally happen on Discogs and like with all the online sales, wire transfer is the best way to lose your money.

The feedback part sounds shady too, so I'd say that you did the right thing.

 

[wenis]

if a seller on discogs doesn't use papypal or isn't local for me to pick it up in person, I'll never go through with the transaction.

Thanks guys- I feel better hearing others would have also backed away. The price being a good deal lower than what other sellers had it up for was another red flag I didn't immediately consider- just got an alert about a new listing and decided to go for it without looking too closely.

I would normally never go through a seller that didn't have PayPal as a payment option, but this one time I made an exception for a very rare LP. Guy was in I think Germany and only accepted Western Union. Thing was, he seemed to be an experienced seller and his Discogs feedback was perfect. The transaction, though somewhat awkward for me, was seen through without a hitch. I would do it again under the same circumstances for something that was too rare to pass up.
