    Thanks for coming out!

    Thanks Steve. Everything was super smooth. I really like the appointment thing. Was able to get the few things I needed and a help a couple people out with other things. I just wish there was still a store on this side of the bridge!

    Well.  It's nothing to get overly excited about [just yet], but a RSD rep did write back to me, already, on that Dirty Three callout I sent them last week.  She advised that they take the RSD Pledge very seriously and will be "looking into" what I've described in the e-mail.  Refreshing to see some traction.  I would sleep just a smidge better knowing that I potentially helped blacklist a shop – one that's probably been exploiting RSD for a while – while knowing that their stock goes to a deserving indie shop next RSD.  Or maybe an even more corrupt one, who knows.

    Interesting. Might have to shoot an email about this one.

    Wasn't sure where to post this and didn't wanna start a new thread, but just saw a new less than jake split is up on bad time records and another variant on the hard times site.

    I don't understand the aversion to starting a new thread. It's a new release. Start a new thread.

    Someone on reddit said it looked like there were upwards of 1,200 of these. Not sure exactly, but I think they scaled up for this one based on fanbase/expected demand.

    My mistake. I Heard They Suck Live was up for a week.

     

    It's no fun ordering unless I get to feel like a big shot when they sell out right away. 😄

     

    There were 2,800 copies of IHTSL

    Teaming up with SBÄM again, this time we bring you the (covers) record of the summer! Teaming up with SBÄM again, this time we bring you the (covers) record of the summer! Rehasher are BACK with Tasty Slices Vol. 1, a full length LP of covers! Spoiler Alert, this is Roger from Less Than Jake swapping his bass for a guitar and singing fast, uber catchy punk rock. Featuring Gainesville shredders Tony Farrah on bass and Alex Klausner on drums. The LP features exquisite covers of classics like "Next To You" by The Police, "And Your Bird Can Sing" by The Beatles, and "Jungle Love" by Steve Miller Band. Some unexpected highlights include "1901" by Phoenix and "Shapeshifter" from the Josie and the Pussycats soundtrack. Of course, fans of Me First And The Gimme Gimmes or Punk Rock Factory will fall in love with the pop punk approaches to classics originally by Green Day, Screeching Weasel, & Osker. Basically what we're trying to say is... you're in for ten tracks of pure fun.

    /333 - Pink w/ White + Yellow Splatter (SBÄM Exclusive)
    /600 - White

    I have international buyers message me their address so I can get a quote. Then if they agree to the total cost, I temporarily open my shop to their country with their shipping quote as the universal flat fee and I cross my fingers that the buyer checks out quickly before some other dude from Finland buys 20 pop-punk records and bankrupts me in shipping costs.

    Much easier to respond with the total and your paypal address.

    I really don't like how you now can't charge a set amount for shipping different records on Discogs. Some records I require insurance or signature required if it's a lot of money and you can't differentiate that for each listing. Now I just bundle in shipping with the price.

    Yeah, the requirement to put shipping amounts by weight/location is pretty awful. I just made it super expensive for international and put in my notes to either message me before or that I'll refund the difference after. The nice thing is people will often message before and can just have them paypal and avoid fees/taxes.

    One good thing is, when someone buys a $250 record from me at 3am and then messages me at 10am to say their child stole their credit card, I can refund them from my pending payout with no charge. PayPal used to keep their transaction fee so I’d lose money each time I refunded someone who immediately canceled their “accidental” order.

    I had this happen a few months ago. Buyer paid for a record and before I shipped it said they found it cheaper and wanted to cancel. I said sure - I'll refund you minus the fees that I don't get back. They threw a fit and filed an item not received paypal claim so I just shipped the record, won the claim. They messaged me after they got it asking why I shipped it after they asked me to cancel the order. I told them because they filed a claim that they never received the item.

    But do they tell you as soon as the buyer has made the payment or when the payment has hit your account?

    You get alerted when the buyer pays, and it tells you to ship the item. The label cost is deducted from your pending payouts. (which then take 2-3 business days for you to get).

     

    I was much happier on the PayPal system, but I foolishly went into managed payments when they were offering a promotion on it so i'm just used to it by this point. Still sucks that if you get paid late Thursday, you won't see that money until the following Tuesday or Wednesday.

    As mentioned above they tell you as soon as the buyer makes the payment and yeah if its later in the day it might take 2 days to hit your bank account, but in reality that's no different that paypal where it takes a few days to transfer the money to your bank after getting paid.

  10. After being hesitant to switch over and give ebay all that info I did it a few months ago and I like it better. Ebay lets you know when the person has paid, takes their cut and puts it in your bank account the next day.

    So as a seller, are you now being expected to send out the record/product out as soon as the order is placed/committed by the buyer?!?!? Because that two-day lag of seeing the payment(s) in your account is going to be an ample window for the punishers to start in with their bullshit. 

     

    "Where is my record?!?!?"

    "Why hasn't my record gone out yet?!?!"

    "Where's my tracking?!?!"

     

    It sounds very convoluted and yet another notch in eBay's always siding with the buyer bullshit. 

     

     

    No? Ebay tells you when they've paid that you should ship.

    What's the difference in whether its ebay or paypal siding with the buyer? It's actually kind of surprising that its taken this long since Paypal spun off as its own company like 6 years ago.
