    Shelby got a reaction from Mars in 2023 - Did Your Vinyl Purchasing/Collecting Habits Change? Any Record(s) You Were Most Excited To Have Snagged?   
    I continued finding new genres/sounds I enjoy so music is as interesting as ever and I'm excited over new records in the mail just about every other day. I've never been a variant hoarder or obsessed with gimmick releases for TV/Movies I like so I'll never have that day where I look at my records with regret. I feel like a lot of you can't let go of your youth through your music taste and it's really not doing you any good. You dress like an adult now so why would a new Blink or Green Day release be mentally exciting? It's impossible and forced unless your brain just stopped developing. Accept it and explore something else, music is endless.

    I sold almost half my collection amd have not bought a new record in a long time. I think the only record I purchased this  last year was the Repress of Slip by Quicksand and I probably only listened to it once. Everything is overpriced and almost everything that was hard to find 10 or so years ago has been repressed at this point and that kind of takes some of the fun out of it. I think most new vinyl buyers have ruined the Golden age of the 'Revival' and after all the delays for new releases post covid I completely stopped pre ordering new releases (Which coincided with me becoming a parent) so my interest in new bands has dropped almost completely. The absolute worst has been how Discogs pricing has just become the norm. It is almost impossible to find a good deal anywhere because everyone record store just prices based off Discogs.

    seems at least some people’s orders via RT and BM were canceled so did these ever actually exist? Beats me… but there were for sure at minimum listings  for Dreams of Field pressings over a year ago.

    Shelby got a reaction from Tommy in Glassjaw Coloring Book vinyl limited to 120 unique color combos 8/16   
    Y'all act like it's a fair price on purpose when their favorite number is 93. Just got lucky they didn't charge $1,993 for the gold and $193 for the white/black haha.

    Shelby got a reaction from N8TRU in Thoughts from sellers about inflation situation?   
    Gotta remember pressing less copies is more expensive though. Paying the little guy $30 for an LP /100 or /200 is terrible for everyone but fair lol

    I feel sorry for her. It would suck to live such a miserable existence. I also feel sorry for her "friends" who have to listen to her going off all of the time.
    Maybe if someone starts overreacting here we can just tell them not to be a Mean Jeannine. LOL.
