  2. On any and all record auctions I may have on eBay, I borrowed the verbiage from BCD on my listings: Take note: even though these records are pristine please be aware I DO NOT issue refunds or replacements for minor cosmetic damage, such as corner dings, bends, split inserts, and so on. I pack all items very securely and carefully but in some cases this type of wear is simply unavoidable during transit and handling by the USPS.

  6. Gotta love these newjacks who get into records and bitch and whine over small bent corners during shipping. If the jacket was completely destroyed it'd be one thing to really be upset over, but a dinged corner?!?! Bitch, please.

  7. Crying over a bent corner and demanding half of the purchase price back. Ridiculous. One of the many reasons I can't stand the "new breed" of record buyers. Sorry, I can't really offer help to your situation. I'm just painfully aware how buyer friendly eBay is in these situations. I hope it ends up going well for you though.

  11. Recording a full length with my blues rock band next weekend. Should have it out by Christmas time. Been whipping up artwork for a while on it - super excited for this to finally come out.

  12. STAND YOUR GROUND. Photos do not matter to ebay, as they are aware that the buyer can damage the package themselves. GO INTO MEDIATION WITH EBAY. Last month, I sold a $50 Stephen Malkmus record to some retard. He wrote back and fucking complained that the paper inner sleeve was damaged, and the FUCKING PLASTIC SLEEVE was damaged. After several emails, we basically went into mediation via ebay, and I told him - send back the UNPLAYED record and I will refund you, and he ended up losing essentially. People are getting way too picky. When I buy a banana from whole foods, and it gets brown after two days,I don't go back to whole foods and throw it at someone, I fucking eat it.

  13. I didnt really own records in 1999 because I was so fixated on the whole compact disc trend going on at the time, but I own probably a handful of albums that were pressed in 1999, which I think was what this topic is supposed to be... not what records you bought that year.

    ive never really went to the bars to find ass. i was never really looking for ass, so i guess that makes sense. i never had that feeling that i just had to get laid immediately or else i'd die. besides, random ass always scared me. im a bit OCD with my genitals being healthy. never was afraid of a potential kid, just didnt want to have to pop warts on my ass the rest of my life.

  16. First paragraph is dead on. Everybody these days wants to stare at their fucking records. Why? Put the damn thing on your TT and listen to it. This is really turning into a goddamn Beanie Babies fad and I personally can't wait until the stupid fad boys go away.

  17. Seriously. It's not awkward one bit. I know exactly what's going on and what's coming in November or 2014. I'm (thankfully) in a position where throwing around some money to grab the first edition of a nostalgic record won't impact me in the least. I'm glad to pay a little bit extra if that means a VC member has some free cash. Share the love, man.

  18. I've totally given up on eBay as a seller and don't buy there much either. I think the OP has done everything they can and should do at this point. I know eBay tends to take the "guilty until proven innocent" approach, but If the buyer won't reply to messages, and isn't sending any proof of damage, just try to stop worrying and wait and see what happens.

  19. This same situation happened to me a couple months ago. In the end, the kid (no doubt some kid buying it to frame) only asked for $5 back after he spent $80 on the record. I obliged because $5 is nothing to settle a paypal dispute. He said next time I ship records I should use a piece or wood or hard plastic to keep the package from getting bent. You know, like how all record labels and distros use wood and plastic in packaging. GD kids.

  23. Beginner’s Guide to Hi–Fi Created to hopefully aid anyone venturing into this stressful, beautiful hobby. I will update this with more information whenever I have time to waste. Anyone is welcome to chime in. Basic Hi-Fi Chain: SOURCE -> AMPLIFICATION -> SPEAKERS (click to jump to section) The source component reads the recorded information and translates it into the signal that will be later perceived as sound. Amplification takes that signal and amplifies it (no, really?) in order to make it strong enough to move the drivers of the speaker. A speaker is a collective of drivers that are moved by the signal, producing air pressure in front of them which to us, mortal beings, means hearing sound. When putting together a hi-fi setup, always keep in mind: The end result will only be as good as the weakest link. Buying an expensive turntable and a good phono preamp is useless if you're using cheap computer speakers. By no means should you decide to just get a shitty turntable then. Instead, think carefully how to ration your budget across all important components. Jump to setting up & use: SOURCE, AMPLIFICATION, SPEAKERS LIST OF RECCOMENDED EQUIPMENT FOR DIFFERENT BUDGETS

  24. Instead of people mentioning and asking in every thread, how about this be a catch all. Let me know what you want. You will paypal me now, and then I will send another invoice when they come in and you can pay shipping costs. Cool? I hope so. PM me. EDIT: Going to have to put this on hold for a while.

  25. Ryan Murphey pretty much just takes everything he can't put on Glee and crams it into AHS. I love Jessica Lange but I definitely would like to see her do something different.

  28. You expect orders to ship same day and arrive the next? What kind of world are you living in? HT takes a day or two to process then a few days ship time. Hold your horses.

  29. I've run into this situation a couple times and my response is always the same, I give the buyer two options: 1. Send record back and you will get a full refund. 2. Keep the record, and I keep the moneys. No partial refunds, ever. eBay claims are different than PayPal ones in that if eBay decides in his favor they will make him send the item back in order to get a refund anyway (in my experience) so either way he shouldn't end up with a partial refund.

  35. I have a feeling that album got overlooked by most people. It was easily one of my favorites from 2010. I'll have to listen to it again later today, it's been a while.

  36. This is so damn good, too. If you haven't heard of Talons, king, I'd change that immediately. Hollow Realm is a superb listen if you're into math-rock and post-metal. It's available for dirt cheap at Topshelf Records as well. And I believe they're shaping up to release a proper sophomore album as well... in the spring of next year, I imagine.

  37. For the record, I am User420. I think it's pretty funny that anyone actually thinks I am the OP or that my name is Richard and that I was serious about telling the kid making threats to send me to the ER to "come over." I understand sarcasm doesn't translate well through text but when I said "You CLEARLY know who I am" I was being sarcastic. I appreciate blocking me under User420 from posting. I don't understand what I did to warrant a ban from blocking as I don't feel as though I was posting for the sole purpose of creating an argument. But thanks for jumping to conclusions about people's identities and thanks for being rational and mature regarding discussions. The intellect of some of the members of this forum is astounding.
