What's your White Whale record?
moonbeams replied to raidenradio's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
These two. 308+ pressed, numbers given were 50 white, 58 black, 100 red, 100 green. Got the black and white, but the green and red have eluded me for years and years. Would pay sweet money for them. -
I've solved this problem with mailers. I took mailers, stuffed them with cardboard os they are nice and thick, and placed them upright between the wall and the records. However, this doesn't work when you have an AC outlet. No problem, I just a used a poster mailer tube that's about 12" long.

[FS] 7+12" Punk Hardcore Emo Grindcore Sludge Post...
moonbeams replied to voidwalking's topic in Sale/Trade/Wants
Can you send me pics of the Isolation From No. 13? Which color insert does it have and does it include a sticker? Also, is the signed Inside My Eyes numbered on the back? -
First of all, for buy or trade is Sealed US Danzig II Lucifuge Misfits Halloween (colored photocopy of insert) rare Misfits Die Die with mismatched labels (bar code sticker on reverse removed) Danzig Sacrifice remix 12" Second, I put a lot of records super cheap on discogs: http://www.discogs.com/seller/moonlitdreams27/profile?sort=price%2Casc&limit=250 Third, I will accept offers on my entire collection, except Balzac. I also collect Misfits/Samhain/Danzig so any offers better be really good. I'll probably say "no" to everything, but it never hurts and I've pretty much sold everything that someone made an offer for (usually after a few weeks of thinking it over). http://www.discogs.com/user/moonlitdreams27/collection?page=1&sort=artist%2Casc&folder=0&limit=250 Don't ask me "how much do I want." Make an offer, if it's too good to turn down, you're in luck. Finally, I'm always looking for Balzac stuff, so if you have anything, if it's not rare, I have it.

FS: Green Day Awesome As Fuck pink 180g NM $20ppd
moonbeams replied to moonbeams's topic in Sale/Trade/Wants
Thanks, Matt! Added a pic. It was only played 2 or 3 times. Had to pay the full price plus international shipping, so I'm selling this for half what I paid. Couldn't find anyone else offering this deal. -
All boxed up and ready to go. If I wanted to hear offers, I would have started at a higher price.

What is your favorite vinyl record you own?
moonbeams replied to decade03's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
(love these threads) My favs from my collection are this pair: This isn't vinyl (it's lathe), but it was limited to only 13 copies and I got to help write the lyrics for 2 of the songs: This is my favorite record: -

It was $330. It there is a scratch on the back, but practically inaudible and Jerry signed the front with black pen, but luckily you can't really make it out. -

My biggest regrets. -
Just a few hours left and I seal up the box.

I'm moving back to Japan in a few weeks, but I have to finish packing tonight. So this is the LAST CHANCE to get my records w/ US shipping before they get packed back up. Here's a Discogs link. You can get 5% off anything by pm'ing me or just buy them through discogs for full price. http://www.discogs.com/seller/moonlitdreams27/profile

One of the most amazing collections in the world. I've tried collecting labels several times, but gave up due to ending up with too many records I didn't like. Do you like every fat release? -
Just because you are pissed doesn't make it right to lie and give negative feedback: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Porcupine-Tree-We-Lost-Skyline-LP-Orange-Vinyl-SEALED-Steven-Wilson-/251674507684

Do not play records with lots of "dimples." They can cause your tone arm to jump off the record and damage the stylus. Happened to me with a record from Fat Wreck. They replaced it with my next order. GZ, the plant in Czech that makes all the crazy splatters for Pirates Press, Vinyl Guru, and a lot of European releases, has terrible quality control. I can't tell you how many times I scored a limited release variant that sold out, only to open it and find zig-zag scratches on across the record. Sometimes there has been label debri in the grooves.

I personally don't like autographs unless they are actually a part of the release. The Jerry signature is like graffiti defacing the cover. The Danzig signature was nice placed in the negative space, artistically complimenting the back cover's layout: These two releases were signed by the entire band in limited numbers. The one on the left is a promo version limited to 15 copies. The one on the right had a press run of 13, with about 9 signed for sales:

I agree with this, too. That's my outlook as a seller. The buyer should get the record in the EXACT condition I listed, so when I package it, I should take precautions for abuse in the mail. I've seen postal workers toss and fling packages into sorting containers. Another thing I often do is tape bubble wrap around the outside of the mailer, especially the back. Bouncy, bouncy, no damage.

Nice topic. When I ship a record, I take every reasonable precaution to avoid damage. Cardboard inserts, bubble wrap, and tape cardboard wings around the corners of the mailers to prevent corner damage. I posted instructions on how to do this, but most people are too lazy. (Sometimes I don't bother with really cheap replaceable stuff). When receiving, if I buy from a store that has others in stock, I will ask for an exchange if the record itself is damaged. If the record was well-packed and the damage was clearly the fault of USPS, I will send an email that says, "I received the record, thank you, but unfortunately it was damaged in shipping." Most good businesses will offer to send out a replacement. For private sellers, I expect them to pack better. As I mentioned in another thread, last week I received 2 orders in paper bags. Both were knew sellers. One guy got positive feedback for being cool. The other got no feedback. I told him if he wanted positive feedback, then he should refund my shipping. He didn't. I reserve negative feedback for assholes. One moron sent a few records overseas with the corners hanging out in the air of the mailer. I messaged him to complain about the packaging and responded with a personal attack. He got negative feedback. If the record is damaged, but well packed, I'll let it go. There was nothing else the seller could have done and it is my responsibility to ask for insurance. I shipped an extremely well packed record as part of a trade to a guy 90 minutes away from me. It arrived shattered. Even though it wasn't my fault, I sent him back the record he traded to me. If the poor packaging resulted in damage, then I ask for a refund.
