Not sure why anyone would want more interaction with the vinyl community than is absolutely necessary.

Here's the thing:
People who care about vinyl likely don't care about YOUR vinyl, and people who DON'T care about vinyl aren't going to be swayed to love it just because you do. I did the instagram record thing for a while and realized that while I love records, I don't love posting photos or videos of them and I really couldn't give a shit about looking at most people's collections.

That crazy expensive Baroness album too, that Plaid Room sale, and the Target buy 2 get one free books/movies/music hammered my wallet the last little bit as well.
I might actually cancel that Baroness order depending on the next single. Hard to justify at the price point.

I mean, I get that you're kind of agreeing with me, but if you're buying this shit at this price it's too much.
As far as singke LPs go you can get everything from Dischord, Fat Wreck, a bunch of stuff from polyvinyl and the like around that price, a ton of bands self releasing, and major label stuff like...a month after it releases because it gets discounted hard because nobody wants to pay $30 for the new Ozzy record, Beatles reissue, etc.
Even bump it up to $24 and you see a shit ton of bands putting out basic 1xLPs in that range. $35 plus shipping is outrageous for a single LP and just acting like it's normal to pay those prices will just continue the increase in price from greedy labels.
I'll wait this out, and if I miss it I miss it. But I have a feeling I'll land one below $30 shipped in the near future.

Right on. Honestly at $25 I'd probably be in for this just for nostalgia sake. The pricing trends recently just drive me nuts!

This label is notoriously awful at communication so I'm surprised they even said anything honestly.
But to your point, yeah, totally. It's really not a big deal I just like shitting on them a little bit.

To compensate for our lack of communication and getting the wrong thing we're giving 1/800th of you something and begging you to buy something else as well.

Whenever people say something like this I just feel bad that high shipping is normal for them.

It's so good. I saw them touring it and it was incredible.
So stoked about a new Slowdive album!

Oof. Wasn't really planning on getting any more records for a bit, but this sale...good lookin out.
7 albums for $141 which is...ok. BUT 3 of them were imports, so kind of pricey, and one was the MoFi American Beauty that I've been holding off on forever and is always steep.
Highly suggest everyone take a look through, lots of interesting stuff.
Electric Mud
American Beauty (MoFi)
Wailing Souls - Firehouse (import)
Boo and the Tru-Tones - Show the World (import)
Songs to Fan the Flames of Discontent
Avey Tare - Down There
Conan and Doomsmoke - Doom Sessions Vol. 1 (import)

That sucks, and I'm not laughing AT you because getting poorly shipped records sucks.
But you gave me a real chuckle with your description.

Not necessarily upset I spent $55 on this.
I’m a bit perturbed that I spent $55 on this and homeboy still continues to pack records as if he’s a 13 year old incel that’s never bought a record, but just put out his SoundCloud rap/glitch/breakbeat digital hardcore record on vinyl, looked up how to ship from his internet bud on YouTube and bought a bunch of mailers from ULine.

Same. I had to double check to be sure I wasn't imagining that he'd died.
