Hey folks,
I was just thinking about how there are a lot of good people on this board who will be genuinely seeking out albums for their own collections and listening pleasure. And I know that sometimes there are more copies of certain albums in some places more than others. I was trying to find a fair and beneficial way of setting up a system so that VCers can help other VCers out on RSD without having to resort to inflated Discogs or Ebay prices.
So I decided to have some fun with Google Forms. Right now I've just sort of made a sample template. I would adjust this a little bit based on feedback and perhaps some other factors (input is gladly accepted).
Basically, there would be two steps: First, a VC member can use the form to input a bit of information (no credit cards necessary...) with their username plus the desired album, and whether it is a regional release (we will likely wait for the official list to actually enter information).
Then, 48 hours before actual RSD (which is like 25 hours from Australian RSD), a spreadsheet with all of the entries would appear. It looks and feels just like an Excel Spreadsheet, except that anyone with the link (as in it will only be shared with members interested - will have to figure out a good way to share the link) can respond and purchase a copy of a desired item for another member, indicating this on the spreadsheet. Because Google Spreadsheets update in real time, other users could see that a copy has been purchased (and wouldn't accidentally be stuck with a record for someone else).
Here are the links to my samples. Feel free to use the form for fun, but know that this is just a sample. I'd love to hear feedback on how and/or if this might work, and then we can make a real one:
Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1pJ5LWonQsPF6JQbCLy71Aq1RBb53PhENNLzE1gFAq9M/viewform?usp=send_form
Spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rjKPYLpLny0bEIEPvq5E-0kFLdKYZX6Jeq0wBF9twCE/edit?usp=sharing
(note: you'll find that the content entered via the form is un-editable. This is intentional.)
Thoughts and feedback appreciated. Hopefully we can make this work!
Count me in on this is if happens. My local shop tends to end up with a lot of leftovers of records that are sought after.

I am so excited for this!
I picked up Debut, Post, Homogenic and Vespertine.

What got cancelled?
Little Hell on Translucent Blue.

Bummer... just got a cancellation.

Man, things went so fast! In the madness I ended up with an extra Little Hell in Orange/Pink. If anyone wants to trade for Tegan and Sara or BMYL please let me know. Those were the two I wanted most and wasn't able to grab.

Ah man! Your friend is a lucky guy.
It's such a great record. This is a House of Lies blows me away every time.
I've tried contacting the band... no luck there. This is my desperate attempt.

Also ordered the bundle yesterday. Super excited about this!

Hey guys. This is one of my favorite records and I can't seem to locate it anywhere. Not on discogs, ebay or gemm. Does anyone here have a copy they'd part with? Or does anyone know where I could find a copy? It doesn't matter to me if it's the red or white version.
Please PM me if you have a copy you'd like to sell.
Thanks!

Are you selling them all together for $35? If so, I'm very interested.

How much are you asking for ORD?

It looks like someone from Death Waltz responded to the reddit thread and says that it is still very much on.
