Not to rain on anyone's dark parade or add more negative energy but what exactly is the danger/risk/issue that we are being warned about? That we might make an offer to this user and it will get rejected without an apology or counter offer?

Yeah, when you go to a store and you're treated like shit, you tell people not to go to that store.

that's literally everyone on here that says "make an offer" though..

make an offer = not interested in selling unless you're willing to pay top dollar.

also why I will never bother with those threads and/or users.

And he wouldn't have even known if I would pay top dollar because he never even tried to counteroffer. I got annoyed because I spent the time going through the list, picking what I wanted, looking up their market value and proposing multiple offers only to get hit with one word responses.

And you can see how flippant he is in this thread. Shit person. 

You should be more sorry that you lack social skills. I hope you get better my man!

If you're trying to sell records and tell people to make offers on your entire collection, and someone makes you an offer that is objectively closer to "fair" than "unfair" in the scope of market value (just because a dude listed his everclear record for $70 doesn't mean it has ever or will ever sell for that price) it would behoove you to engage in conversation to possibly share what you would rather receive for those records, instead of a curt dismissal making me feel like I wasted precious time and energy even engaging with you in the first place. 

Nah I'll just share what happened so people can be wary of your tactics next time you post your list:

The NMH box set is available on their site for $100

The Discogs median price for those Everclear records are 30 each.

I offered you 130 for all 3, as people tend to give discounts for multiple records. You said no. I offered you 45 for the EC records. You said no. Didn't even offer any opportunity to counter-offer with something you'd consider more reasonable. All my offers were reasonable. 

You lack social skills AND business skills. Good lord man. 

FYI all this guy sucks balls. I sent him two offers that were fair for the market value and he just replied "Nah" to both without even counteroffering or giving me a chance to counter. Beware.

Yikes.

Agreed. Both are good albums but are extremely easy to find and their versions aren't that impressive/different. And even worse I couldn't find anything to swap to. 

I know music is subjective but I think, as a big fan of the band, if you don't think this album is better than their last two efforts, you're CRAZY.

There's no discernible filler on this record and the last two albums were about 1/3rd filler each. 

And I like every album they've done, of course. But still. I can't believe anyone would not be blown away by this release.

from start  to finish, i really think it's lower than that for me. it's way too long, the "interludes" are completely worthless, the pacing of side B is terrible. the only saving grace of side B is Rylan. just biding my time until a 2010 blue s/t pressing comes shows up somewhere

 

i did a fist bump when i saw the video of that Q&A - i'm fucking glad that guy mentioned that, maybe that'll be a seed in their mind for the next LP

link to that Q+A?

Album is a 10 and anyone who doesn’t like it has a bad taste in music 

thank you for coming to my TED talk

Welp, just got my two Sigur Ros records cancelled by Bullmoose FML 

PHASE 1: three pages of "got the limited!"

PHASE 2: one page of "WTF WHY IS IT NOT FOR SALE ANYMORE"

PHASE 3: two months of silence

PHASE 4: two pages of "got my shipping notification!"

PHASE 5: two pages of "this album sounds great on vinyl!" mixed equally with "listened once, not for me, selling for $90 OBO"
