INT. WINNEBAGO - DAY
 
Walt stands in front of his Google Chromebook in only a cough mask and his underwear.  He yells muffled expletives through the mask, as he stomps his feet.
 
JESSE enters while Walt continues his yelling.
 
JESSE
Mr. White, I gave Badger the Foo Fi- (Jesse sees Walt is upset) Mr. White?
 
Walt removes his mask.
 
WALT
...because of ITEM NOT DESCRIBED?!  They're REMOVING my listings because ITEM NOT DESCRIBED?!
 
Jesse looks down, suddenly guilty.
 
WALT
Jesse!  Can you PLEASE explain to me WHY every listing you were responsible for posting has now been TAKEN DOWN?  Because to me it seems like you INCORRECTLY and SLOPPILY listed all these Record Store Day releases in the marketplace for their FIRST PRESSING release pages!  And that would mean that you PURPOSEFULLY SCREWED our entire operation because you're nothing better than a VINYL HEAD LOSER!  So, PLEASE, won't you explain what happened because I'm sure you have a GREAT excuse?!
 
Jesse starts fuming.  He's had enough of this kind of abuse.
 
JESSE
LISTEN, BITCH!  
 
Walter is taken aback by Jesse's newfound boldness.
 
JESSE
I posted all those RSD copies in their regular, first pressing pages because I wanted to inflate the perceived cost of the original pressings SO THAT THE RSD LISTINGS WOULD SEEM MORE APPEALING.  I posted the listings TWICE, BITCH!  Once in the right release page and a second time on the first pressing release page! Check your Inventory and while you're at it, Mr. White, check your messages because according to my iPhone mailbox we sold 15 records last night!
 
Walter is speechless.  He's never been wrong (or at least he's never allowed himself to acknowledge that he's wrong).
 
WALT
(more compassionate now)
Jesse...I made a mistake in how I read Discog's new email alert notifications.  They changed the titles recently and-
 
JESSE
NO, BITCH!  YOU'RE Rrrrrreeeeaaachhhhiinngggg!  Have fun flipping records by YOURSELF!
 
Jesse storms out of the winnebago and slams the door.
 
WALT
JESSE!  JESSE!
 
Walt, now a sad man standing alone in his underwear, looks at his Chromebook at the messages proving Jesse's story as right.  
 
Walt grabs a cell phone and he makes a call.
 
WALT
Saul.  We have a problem with Jesse.
 
BLACKOUT.

EXT.  VINYL HERMANOS - DAY
 
Walt pulls into the parking lot of a record store.  He exits his car and walks inside the store.
 
INT. VINYL HERMANOS - DAY
 
We see a clean, well stocked record store.  Walt looks around for someone.  
 
Walt sees a 22 year old punk girl.  He shakes his head and focuses on a 56 year old man in a long white goatee and a stained t-shirt.  He shakes his head again. We can tell that Walt might not know exactly who he is looking for.
 
MAN'S VOICE
(cheery)
May I help you?
 
Walt turns and sees a tall, olive-skinned man in glasses.  The Tall Man smiles.
 
WALT
Hi.  I'm looking for...someone who can help me with a...Record Store Day scenario.
 
TALL MAN
I'm sorry but Record Store Day was last weekend.  Would you like to buy a 45 adaptor?
 
The Tall Man holds up a plastic red adapter.
 
WALT
No.  I'll just...browse then.
 
TALL MAN
(voice changes to a more serious tone)
Maybe you should browse over in the jazz aisle.
 
Walt lifts his eye brow.  He understands what the Tall Man is saying.
 
INT. VINYL HERMANOS - JAZZ AISLE - DAY
 
Walt looks at a reissue of Kind of Blue.  He sees the price
 
39.99 
 
and quickly places it back on the shelf.
 
TALL MAN
You would like to do business.
 
WALT
Yes.
 
TALL MAN
You know who I am?
 
Walt nods.
 
WALT
Fring.
 
TALL MAN
Kess Fring.
 
Walt takes a deep breath before continuing.  Kess Fring looks at him, intrigued.
 
WALT
I want to flip 4 copies of the Pete and Pete Soundtrack.
 
Kess Fring says nothing.  He looks over Walt's shoulder at a skinny indie kid who is a little too close to their conversation.
 
WALT
So...can you help me?
 
Kess Fring gives Walt one last slow look over.
 
KESS
(serious tone)
I own a vinyl cleaning plant.  On the other side of town.  Meet me there tomorrow at 1pm.
(cheery)
Hello!  May I help you?
 
The Skinny Indie Kid turns around.
 
SKINNY INDIE KID
Do you have any clear Sufjans?
 
BLACKOUT.

INT. HANK'S GARAGE - DAY
 
Walt looks over Hank's shoulder as Hank clicks the trackpad on the Macbook Pro.  We see that he is browsing a vinyl forum.
 
WALT
So...this is what you do all day?
 
HANK
Yeah, Walter.  It beats giving handies under the ABQ bridge.
 
WALT
What are we looking for...exactly?
 
HANK
Well, right now there's a real scumbag flipping an ETID 7" for a $15 profit.  We have his VC username but we need to find his Discogs account in order to nail him.
 
Walt's curiosity spikes as he takes in this information.
 
WALT
They...make money doing that?
 
HANK
Yeah, the bastards stand in line for 7 hours, buy a limited edition record, and then they flip it for $20-150 Washingtons.
 
Walt points to a JPEG of Deja Entendu.
 
WALT
How much would I...theoretically...if I were to flip that record there, how much would I make?
 
Hank swivels in his leather computer chair to face Walt.  Hank gives him a cold stare.
 
HANK
If you flipped this record...
 
Walt gives a hard gulp.
 
HANK
...you'd make over $200.  
 
Walt's eyes open wide.
 
HANK
But I'd have to take you down.  
 
Walt snaps back to reality.  He realizes he's sweating.  A little too much.
 
HANK
My own brother in law.  (Pause)
 
The ensuing silence is deafening.
 
HANK
I'm just kidding!  You'd never be able to pull off something like that.  You're an adult.  These dickholes are all under 30.  (to himself) Hah! Imagine that.  Walter White flipping White Stripes LPs.
 
Walt laughs along with Hank.  We see, however, that he is up to something in his mind.

WTF, are all of you 8?
I mean, when I was a kid, if it was on your plate you didn't leave till it was gone.
I honestly can't think of any foods that I think are gross.

FS threads dont get deleted. They sort of act as receipts for the mods for proof of purchases when sellers/buyers rate! Surely you know this with 66 positive reviews!

Can we just close off registration until about May? Hundreds of new members asking for this, and creating their own threads. It's sloppy enough as it is on here around RSD.

If this is actually in stores for RSD, Triple Crown just ruined it for so many people.

Maybe a three month wait period would be a good thing

Alter Bridge does actually belong with said band when Creed is mentioned.You do know that the members of Creed, minus Stapp make up Alter Bridge, plus Myles.
 
People should just listen to what they like. No band is any better or worse than the ones that people go crazy for on here.

I'd buy the 1st 3 albums. That was my shit back in the day!

I wish Hot Topic would press Hooked on Phonics cause a lot of peeps can't read.

This thread has taught me that no one who likes MCR has the capability to read. At all.
If we answered the questions of time and colors of pressing just once, this thread would be 1/100 of its current length. Get it together people!!!

I was thinking about doing something along the lines like this for this year as well. Here's my input and feedback.
 
I could see this being very messy if there is going to be one list shared between possibly over 100 members, with however many amount of titles from each person. I could see there being well over 1000 entries on that thing. Many people will be out at the same time, so if they see that someone wants something before they go, several people could pick that release up before they update that they have a copy later on, unless more than one person is looking for that title.
 
Is there a way of doing this, but in separate groups, perhaps on the same spreadsheet? I like the idea of only looking for 5-10 people, rather than everyone at the same time. Maybe each person from their small group can list 3-5 releases that they want most, or think that they cannot get. This way, we keep the list shorter, and more organized, so we know exactly what to look for. After, if there are extras, we can look for people outside of our group who need a copy.
 
I also think that we would need some type of criteria in order to join. It doesn't have to be much, but I think that something minimal would be good. What do you think?

My nudes!

The first three Anberlin records would be amazing.

So what old Tooth & Nail stuff would you guys like to see pressed?

Hopefully these don't get repressed. I spent a lot of good money to have NTFP, Cities, and New Surrender on vinyl. Would hate to see them for a fraction of what I had to pay.
