Dominic_ Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Why is it inherently bad that a store focus on rare stuff? Only "limited to one" stuff is the Little Elephant lathes they will cut forever anyway. I haven't seen prices yet, but they will at least have to be competitive? Don't sharpen your pitchforks yet, Christ. aopps42, freezeflash and poweredbytrust 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have traveled to EU and Asia getting a lot of these records and have been (and still) busting my ass and putting myself in debt to make this a reality. if you don't like the idea, don't come. simple as that. I know a lot of people who'd like the chance to see and check out the condition of an LP before buying it. and I know a lot of people would like a shop that focuses on contemporary music and not a lot of dollar bins and stuff you can buy online. once again, if you dont have something nice to say. ..

spectrum Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 6 hours ago, Aych said: It's like a brick-and-mortar eBay flipper account. So let me get this straight: you have an issue with the idea of grabbing all of the wall records in NYC record shops and placing them under one roof at fair prices? Are you so naive to think that if I walk into a local store with my copy of Washed Out's Life of Leisure, their first record on purple, trade it in, that the store is going to sell it at like $15? They are going to look it up in Discogs and price it accordingly. Maybe you would buy it, maybe you wouldn't - but you wouldn't think twice about the store selling it. But now because a store is limiting its stock to just records like that one you take offense? Please, go out and be productive today. freezeflash, MyckelJay and thepunkguy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had a lot of help from other people on the board and a few cool label people too. (we've had some labels send us some cool Out Of Print stuff, tests, etc..) I just think it's funny that people are commenting about the pricing without seeing one LP priced. xpacinox and freezeflash 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pepperonigin Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 People who have never owned a small business or have put lots of money and hard work into a labor of love will always try and knock you down. Just ignore them and do what you gotta do. I wish you all the success in the world and I look forward to stopping by (probably on the first Monday). I'll be sure to say hi! freezeflash and thepunkguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
