Beach Slang and both Shrimper releases are available on Midheaven. Beach Slang is pre-order and the other two are for sale. They have also been at Amoeba in SF for a week.

I tried to get some stuff from them last month but the site went to an "closed for August until we can catch up on orders." Now it goes to a redirect page for Limited Run.

 

Tried a couple emails w/o a reply.

 

Does anyone know what the deal is? Are they don't or just still catching up? Curious.

With the exception of Feb 14th and Rubbing the Impossible... you can still get most of their 7" s for under $5, LP for about $10-$12.

 

Curious, what else are you including?

Any notable albums? Wonder if it's the same selection as the last wave of sale albums there.  

 

I picked up:

 

Owls 2 on lt. blue

Pure X- Angel

Speedy Ortiz- Real Hair

Bleeding Rainbow- Interrupt

The First Ice Age album

First Big Pink album

 

Nothing crazy amazing, just stuff I've wanted but didn't wanna pay $20 for. I'm hoping there is a 50% thing soon so I can get an adjustment. Plus they have a couple copies of Dylan Mono Recordings box, I wouldn't mind one of those or less than $100.

Looks like eveyone's favorite record store, Urban Outfitters, is slimming down on their vinyl.  

 

Saw some stuff on the sale section of the page, but decided to save on shipping and check one down the street. About 6 full bins of clearance LPs @$10 ea. 

I've used Sonos a few times and can never bring myself around to actually buying it. I think it's good for parties and get together situations, but the quality is meh.

 

Honestly, if you want the best sound, it's all about hardwire. I think wireless audio is a couple generations shy of "getting there."

 

I've been doing the hard wire things slowly and putting keystones with stereo jacks in different rooms/outside. Will probably use an A/B switch for receivers as my turntable is hooked up to a solid state and everything else is on a modern receiver.

Like I said, there are sadly no search filters whatsoever. It's a shame, because they would do better business and not have to have sales all the time if they put the tiniest bit of effort into improving their site.

 

This kinda' works.

you can change the search term from vinyl to " LP" in quotes. Doesn't work so well with 7" or 12" because of syntax and the inch symbol, unless someone knows a way (iso/html) didn't work for me.

 

BTW, thanks to the person who posted this link. Got the Pure X lp for $5.

 

Found it:

The results show up on the bottom of the page. It was "below the fold" on my laptop, so at first I didn't think it worked until I scrolled down.

Would be rad to setup a custom google map with the store location and comments about what they specialize in, tips, etc.

I might have some stuff that you would be interested in. Lemme dig and I'll PM you.

Do you know which pressings the Citizen's Arrest LP and the NY Hardcore LP are?

 

Thanks.

Amoeba SF, on the wall, $30.

 

Call 'em.

For me, it's a copy of the Chain of Strength "What Holds Us Apart" EP. It was one of the rejected mix 7"s that were supposedly destroyed, not the Chain Crew. Mine had a photocopied cover with handwritten notes from one of the band members. I've seen these go for crazy amounts. Mine didn't sell for a crazy amount (though at the time I thought it was).

 

On the reverse, I traded an original 80's Powell Rat Bones Jacket for a couple records that were hard to find at the time. I've seen them in clearance bins since. 

Everyone's favorite Italian shoegaze label, We Were Never Boring is having a 40% off deal. I would suggest the Be Forest stuff, super good.

code: blackfriday

Turntable Lab has a few titles that are allowing you to order them. Not sure why since it's supposed to be next week. Got RaRa Riot and Mewithoutyou.

WHYYYYYYYY???

 

I just bought some.

Looking for a copy of the Now, Now/Lonely forest split. 

 

Buy or trade.  My current trade list is basically my discogs sale page:

If there's something on there you're interested, we can work something out.

 

Thanks.

I keep going back and forth. File by a-side (if there is one), favorite artist (what if I like them both). ARGH, this is killing me. 

 

Right now they have their own box. 

 

I should just buy two of each.

 

Anyone else?

When I was young and broke I sold a bunch of records I wish I hadn't. Now that I'm old and broke, I've set my priorities straight and I'm trying to trade/buy some back.

Looking for original pressings unless otherwise noted. Colored vinyl is a bonus, not a must.

108- Songs of Separation

Unbroken- Life. Love. Regret

Unbroken- Ritual

Insted- We'll Make the Difference

Insted- Bonds of Friendship

Chain of Strength- What Holds Us Apart (sold the Chain Crew pressing, dammit)

Outspoken- Look Beyond

Also open to any other early Rev/New Age/Conversion releases.

Ideally I'd like to trade, here's my Discogs page:

But also willing to buy if the price is reasonable. Not looking for a steal, but also not looking to pay 'bay prices.

Thanks all.

I thought about making one before, I'm just paranoid it wouldn't be strong enough from a security standpoint. 

 

Before you go through the effort of building some custom mail slot/box with ten locks, talk with your local post office. I believe there are some restrictions about what you can and cannot have as your mail receptacle.

 

I'm in San Francisco, pretty much anything goes with mail. If there is somewhere to put it, it will get put. Carriers do what they can to avoid the trouble of having to write out slips or fill out paperwork for non-deliverable mail, etc.

 

My last place had a gate before the steps to the front door (second floor flat). It had an opening at the bottom that was just big enough to slide in LP boxes far enough away that someone couldn't reach in and grab them. Mail theft is kinda' a big deal here. 

I've been trying to find a mail slot that will fit a 12" record. You know, the ones that fit in doors or garage doors and are just a flap.  I know they exist, I found one, but it's $250.

 

If anyone knows of a less expensive solution that has a slot that is at least 12.5", I would really appreciate it.
