Romier S 5,328 Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 So I offloaded 7 vinyls in the past two weeks via Ebay and the sales have pretty much covered the cost of both next gen consoles for me along with a few games/extras. The aftermarket sales of some of these special editions or alternate colors I bought is lucrative to say the least. jubjub75 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm seeing some preorders for it but but the price is significantly high for a US release. Can't find anything about this edition if it is happening. The drop one is a sure thing.

iainl 694 Posted October 23, 2020 Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 Reconfigured will be £40 tomorrow in our shop as part of RSD Drop Three; I had a look through their offerings when I popped in for the new Gorillaz and Faithless LPs today. It’s a lot too rich for me, thanks, not that I was planning on daring to try - Covid’s bad enough here again that the rumour is that we’ll be back under lockdown within a week.

Orpheus 88 Posted October 24, 2020 Report Share Posted October 24, 2020 Got my wrist band at 2 am. Came back at 8:30 this am, walked in and walked out a couple minutes later. 2 planned and 2 impulse purchases: The Church - Gold Afternoon Fix Modern English - Melt With You 12" Bob Mould - Circle of Friends (impulse purchase) Tres Vampires (also an impulse purchase and honestly surprised there was one left) With RSD being split like this I am absolutely certain I spent far more than I would have in a normal year. There were some excellent jazz releases I didn't pick up, mostly because I already had it on CD, that I may double dip on yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoeyN 1,321 Posted October 24, 2020 Report Share Posted October 24, 2020 I didn't line up as the soundtracks I want are only early release, no RSD exclusive this time. Wanted to sleep in for a change. I will check Newbury at 1 to see what they put up. I got hackers last time from the web store last time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoeyN 1,321 Posted October 24, 2020 Report Share Posted October 24, 2020 I got the three Austin Powers soundtracks on newbury. They actually have every soundtrack that was available. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angry the Clown 4,389 Posted October 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Mondo Nightmare Before Christmas is rather nice looking: Doubt I will be able to afford an imported copy. I'm actually sad to have only just discovered the (out of print) orange vinyl edition from last year: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iainl 694 Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 I think I’d rather have an orange one, as those stripy swirls don’t always end up sounding the best. Particularly with white. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angry the Clown 4,389 Posted October 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Yes, I do think I prefer the orange edition. It was £30 last year and now fetches closer to £100 on eBay...etc. I definitely didn't see it on sale when I saw Elfman perform Nightmare live last December otherwise I'd have grabbed it as the soundtrack had been on my list for a while.

JoeyN 1,321 Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 Got another round of music in. Picard S1 score which I listened to today which sounds great and Adam Lambert and Queen around the world which I listened to last night . The three Austin Powers soundtracks came but I have not listened to them yet. This month Mandolorian S1, Tron Legacy and Avengers game soundtrack release from Mondo. ST discovery s2 from FYE keeps getting delayed for some reason. I am also happy that a few things I missed when I first got into vinyl have been repressed (Dark Knight Rises and Man of Steel).

kelley 860 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 So do you guys bag your covers of just leave them out. I've got some that are bagged and some that are not and frankly the bags just feel like they are starting to get in the way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JoeyN 1,321 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 Yep I bag them all, and have anti static sleeves. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angel P 504 Posted November 12, 2020 Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 Same as Joey. Outer sleeves and anti-static inner sleeves on all, even the extra large box sets like Doom, Mondo’s Alien, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoeyN 1,321 Posted November 12, 2020 Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 Just got a shipping notice from Mondo for Tron Legacy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iainl 694 Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 I know I should bag my records. But back in the 90s I debugged everything because it was the only way to get everything on the shelf, and doing the whole lot at once now is prohibitively expensive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Orpheus 88 Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 I was never good about keeping up with this. It would be pricey to do it all at once but every now and then I'll grab a bag of sleeves. Eventually the whole lot will get done. As I'm sleeving I'm also entering into discogs so small batches are more manageable. JoeyN 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angry the Clown 4,389 Posted November 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 I'm team sleeves. JoeyN 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kelley 860 Posted November 15, 2020 Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 I must be using the wrong sleeves/bags as I think they make it harder to see the record spines. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Orpheus 88 Posted November 15, 2020 Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 It kinda does. After we move (if we ever find a place to buy) I'll be getting a display box to hold about 30 or so records that I can flip through with the front facing forward. Things I listen to a lot or newly acquired can go in there. The guy who's owns my local stores makes them and has a means of transferring high quality graphics onto them, which i may take advantage of. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kelley 860 Posted November 15, 2020 Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 That box is really cool! Orpheus 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoeyN 1,321 Posted November 15, 2020 Report Share Posted November 15, 2020 I use these https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000RA7IZS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . I leave the spine to the open side. In our house I’m more worried about dust getting in then the spine getting hit. I’m the only one touching them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
