  1. I like being exposed to esoteric stuff (Numero Group, etc.), which is why I shared this list on here. Sorry if it didn't speak to everyone.
  2. Guess I shouldn't be surprised, but I am a bit surprised at how hostile some people are about an end-of-year list that is someone's opinion. Jayzis.
  3. http://www.thevinylfactory.com/vinyl-factory-releases/the-30-best-vinyl-reissues-of-2015/
  4. Did you have a tracking code for the Eminem box and then they cancelled the shipment? Or did you not receive a tracking code at all for it? I've received a tracking code for each thing I ordered and received the first two or three items yesterday.
  5. I ordered this one from Jet.com and received it a few days ago. Sticker on front says, "TRANS ORANGE VINYL." Haven't opened it yet.
  6. I've received shipping confirmations for all of mine as well. I hoped they would ship, but I certainly didn't expect they would. It's a Christmas miracle! (The delivery guy is going to hate me more than usual. )
  7. My Springsteen box has shipped, and UPS says it weighs more than 9 pounds. If those are CDs, those are the heaviest damn CDs in the world.
  8. If all of these that say "Long Play" on them are actually CDs, ugh.
  9. The way I see it is either the prices are real and the orders go through, or we have exposed a failure in their system and are helping them see what they need to fix. I would, however, never attempt to ding their business because of having orders reversed for wrongly priced items.
  10. It is better to have purchased and lost than to have never purchased at all.
  11. I put so many orders through in a row that PayPal told me I had to use another form of payment. D'oh!
  12. Not even a huge fan, but I had to buy it at that price.
  13. Best Buy has some LPs at good prices right now (these are just the ones I purchased--there are others available): Mount Eerie, Live in Bloomington, September 30th, 2011 ($7.99) Ponys, Laced with Romance ($9.99) Fluf, Road Rage ($7.99) Jawbox, Novelty ($7.99) My Morning Jacket, Circuital ($7.99) No idea how long these prices have been live or how long they will continue to be. Go.
  14. A few bundles: The National (4 albums) Peter Gabriel (4 albums) Radiohead (3 albums) Pavement (3 albums) Cat Power (3 albums) The Beatles (mono box--less than Amazon if you have to pay tax on Amazon)
  15. Still not sure why they don't have (at least I don't see one) a native search function on their site. I think they're trying to create a sense of urgency when they post their deals (or sometimes "deals").
  16. A big magical picker in the sky can help you find things. All you have to do is tell it what you want and it will help you.
  17. Use this query: searchterm site:https://www.popmarket.com For example: peter gabriel site:https://www.popmarket.com returns this page of 9 search results, and the first result goes to the most recent deal. If you simply search Google for "peter gabriel popmarket.com," you get 11,300 results.
  18. By the way, it's one code per email address. If you have more than one email address (and who doesn't?), log out and create a new account with a different email address. I don't think Jet is a long-term prospect anyway, so you may as well take advantage of the deals while they are alive.
  19. I don't have a high-end turntable, but the track skips in the same place every time and the LP doesn't skip anywhere else on either side of the LP. The seller has already said he'd refund the purchase, so that's a good development. Mostly curious if anyone else has run into this skip. For example, I purchased "Pretty Hate Machine" on Amazon. First copy had a skip. Returned it for a replacement. Second copy had a skip in exactly the same place. Google revealed that this is a manufacturing defect that many other people had experienced, regardless of setup. Wondering if that might be the case here.
  20. I ordered the Lennon box set via a third-party Amazon seller a couple weeks ago. I received the box this weekend, pulled out the "Imagine" LP, dropped the needle on "Imagine," and the track skipped about 15 seconds from the end. I cleaned the brand-new vinyl thoroughly. Tried again. Skipped again in exactly the same spot. None of the rest of the album skipped on either side. Has anyone else found that this track skips for them? I'm referring specifically to this LP in this box set on the track "Imagine." The third-party seller claims no one else has reported any issues with this box set, of which I'm sure they've sold many.
