Just checked back and you sold the VPI. Arrghh. Congrats. When you're tired of selling your records, I'll buy all of them for a flat price (probably not to your desire). Sell as many high ticket items as you can and get at me when you done with the process.

I was actually considering bringing my "leftovers" to my local shop, but instead I'll let you pick what you want! I'll probably be doing that in December since I'm moving at the end of the year & I dont want to bring these with me lol.

up

bumpppp

Damnit. I want that VPI. I just don't have the money now. I'm seriously interested but probably won't have the money until later in the year (which isn't helpful). Posting to see if you still have it when I have the money.

please let me know when you're able to buy

bump, edited to add record collection for sale

Back in 2015 I bought a really nice VPI 16.5 from user ajxd with intentions of including it in my set up, but I've had a long list of financial burdens since then (including the reason why I'm now selling it) so I was never able to actually set it up and use it. It's been in (cool, dry, safe) storage at my parents house since I live in a tiny 1 bedroom apt with barely enough room for myself, my bf & my cat lol.

With that said, I'm looking to sell it for as close to what I purchased it for as possible which was $385ppd including insurance. I purchased this for a really great price and I want to pass that on to whoever may want this. It comes with everything you'd need, which is what I received from ajxd. If interested I can fwd the message chain between the two of us where he gives me his step-by-step method for cleaning records (he's a scientist for those who don't know).

I don't get to post on here often anymore, so feel free to tweet to me (@/) if I don't reply to your DM within a couple hours of sending as I'd like to sell this ASAP.

VPI SOLD

I'm also selling most of my collection via discogs: https://www.discogs.com/seller/futurekills/profile?sort=artist%2Casc

I didn't input any of the prices, I just let the site suggest what it thinks the going rate is. Feel free to DM/comment with offers, but don't lowball please.

Thanks.

pre-ordered from their store this morning. i wonder why their store says it'll ship 7/13 but bullmoose says the vinyl won't be available until 8/11. i like ordering from their store since they always ship early. curious as to why they noted the vinyl as "standard" as well.

i saw them this past saturday at ommegang  brewery in upstate new york and it was awesome. got to camp over night on the property, too.

so it looks like they sold out of all the vinyl they brought on tour was waiting to get my press tonight so if anyone has an extra of any press they want to sell me or trade some other records let me know. Also just letting anyone else looking for the tour press know.

I can sell you mine.

Who is ever going to take that seriously. They all look like a bunch of idiots.

Don't forget about the Pussy hats too. They are just making light of the situation, which isn't helping there "cause".

Is this a serious comment?

Also, *their

Having hobbies and making plans with friends is always a good thing to do if you're into being social/active, etc... but if you're in a sensitive or vulnerable state it could be causing more harm than good to be constantly replacing the hole from your relationship with other people/distractions. Realistically, it's good to spend time feeling your feelings and letting them run its course. In my experience, the only way to truly come out of the other side of something emotionally taxing such as a loss/breakup is time. It sucks while you're in it but you'll always come out stronger than you think.

With that said, there are always exceptions. If you feel like you're really in a tough space, talking to a professional is never a bad idea.

Mine showed up on Tuesday.

Thanks. I guess I'll reach out to them in the next day or two to see whats up

Has anyone received their copy yet? Mine has been sitting at label created for 7 days.

didn't realize they outsourced to MN, lol. That place is in my backyard; I have several buddies who have worked there forever and I used to work at Equal Vision back in '06/'07, which shares the space and is owned by the same dude that runs the label... that place is so dysfunctional, haha.

 

Aaaaanyway, all of that sucks. No Sleep was the shit for a long time, I guess it makes sense then that I've not heard much goodness come from them for awhile now. 

merchnow seems super dysfunctional just from a customer standpoint lol. I try to avoid ordering from them whenever possible.

Yeah I loved the No Sleep roster for the longest. It's a shame what's come of it.

I do know they were supposed to support MCS on their recent farewell tour but one of the members couldn't do it. They all live in different states and work full time jobs; they record albums by sending protools sessions to each other and recording in home studios. I wish so bad that they'd play shows but I don't know when/if it'll happen. Obviously there's not a whole lot of appeal for any label in a band like that, however good the jams are. 

 

Curious what you mean about "whatever [no sleep] is right now." I guess I haven't been paying attention, though if I think about it I don't really know/listen to any bands on the label currently where at one point I listened to a ton. Did they do a roster cut or something? 

Oooh well the recording process is kinda cool imo, but I understand it makes the touring part of being a band difficult. But that kind of makes me appreciate the songs more knowing they all did their parts separately.

I'm in no way any authority on the matter, but I know they (he? I think he is just a one man operation now) moved to a smaller place and no longer do their own mailorder. There was a thing a little while back were people were waiting for a long time for their records to ship bc of the move and the merchnow switchover. There were things missing from the store and inventory issues, etc. Also I don't think the last few vinyl subscriptions were ever completed and folks were having a hard time getting refunds. Plus, a lot of the bands on their roster either left or signed with new labels. I think if you look in the 2015 or 2016 no sleep sub threads you'll find more detailed info on what was going down as it was happening.

I think the No Sleep deal soured shortly after they signed, or at least the label has ended up not providing much benefit to them. They don't really tour; perhaps that's part of the reason No Sleep hasn't done much with/for them. My understanding is that they do everything on their own for the moment, hence the kickstarter...not sure NS is even still in the picture

I was afraid of that =\ I was excited when they announced they were signed but it seemed like that happened at the exact moment No Sleep started to.... become whatever it is right now.
