Question for those that did recieve the box set, did it ship from Greensboro? I have a package that hit my PO box this morning that I'm not going to be able to get for a while, all I know is the tracking# says it started in Greensboro, the tracking doesn't match any deliveries I'm expecting and I can't get the sender address. 

Received mine today (even though usps informed deliver didn’t say I had anything coming) and I checked the tracking number. Yes, says Greensboro so that should be it.
 

Also, didn’t know they were going to mimic the first pressings on all the 7”s.  Nice touch. 

Never liked black flag based solely on their anti orange cat stance.

Anyone who ordered the Bad Brains and/or Rock for Light splatters from BrooklynVegan receive them?

 

I just received the splatter of Quickness today...but I don't think I ever received the other two. 

 

 

 

Yes, sometime late last year.  They were shipped together. Another question to tack on though, did anyone who ordered the s/t from Brooklyn Vegan get an obi strip #/750?

Orange/Mint Split Vinyl LP | 300 edition (Store Exclusive) 

Is this the band's store exclusive?? Dais doesn't offer it on their dropdown.

 

Also hilarious that Rough Trade is calling the Neon Yellow a Rough Trade Exclusive:
https://www.roughtrade.com/gb/spice/viv/lp-plus-2

I think “store exclusive” may mean indie store.  Would make sense that rough trade has it available but Dais doesn’t. The whole neon as a “rough trade exclusive” may be a mistake though considering it was up on the Dais site as well. 

Looks like the next reissue is Devil Between My Toes.  Been seeing it pop up for preorder.  Here’s one link:

Seen it on pop up a few other places but sold out. (Color,  black seems like it will be widely available like vampire)

glow in the dark w/ silkscreened cover /100 now up

$50 is a bit steep, but at least it’s free shipping. Slept on ordering cause there were so many variants, but I love a screened cover so grabbed one.  

I’d be in for a simple lp repress, but don’t want an 80 page book talking about their good ol’ days in the Christian Hc scene, so I passed.  Give me something around $25 and I’ll pick it up.

Midheaven has copies, but it doesn’t say if it’s the color one

Revhq does as well, but same. I’d assume it’s probably the color one though, considering it’s been OOP for a bit. It’s a gamble considering they don’t have killer “color vinyl” hype stickers. 

I already hit that $600 so I’ll be getting one I assume. They should take out the eBay fees and send a net amount right?

As opposed to on the polybag? I'd prefer it if they were on the direct cover so there's no glare/reflection. One thing I learned from starting this account was that non-adhesive googly eyes are much more common than I thought. In fact, most googly eyes are non-adhesive.

Wait, you didn’t permanently stick those googly eyes on the cover?!? Unfollowed!!!

First look I thought this was pretty dumb, but some of those had me cracking up pretty hard… simple, yet kinda brilliant.

Yeah. Unless you're a professional reseller with larger totals claiming close to no profit, I can't imagine the audit risk would be high unless you have some other red flags. 

Exactly. Plus, semi causal sellers are small potatoes to the irs. Think about how many new tax reports they’re going to get from this.

They can audit you and expect you to have the receipts to prove it. If you don’t, then they’ll tax you more since you can’t prove the cost basis. 

I mean, if you’re pretty honest about what you paid, the likelihood of an audit seems pretty slim.  

So I picked this up “opened but unplayed” some years back and just found out there’s supposed to be a track listing glued on the back. Never knew cause discogs didn’t have a photo of the back and there isn’t any residue or indication anything was ever there. Does anyone else that still has this and did theirs fall off, or get one without?  
 

*nm. Looked at some being sold on discogs and there are a few where the same thing happened. Too bad the original owner didn’t at least keep it. 

Tempted but $25 for a 7” is kinda rough. 

Magnolia records repressed their solid red punisher if anyone’s interested.

Red is up in discogs if you slept on this (like I did).  1234go has a ton up for $61 free ship. 

May grab it from a US distro if it pops up.  Great record, just already own enough copies.  It’d be kinda cool if they did a 2xLP with the Split Lip version included.  Not that much different but I always kind of liked the vocals a little more.

mine also arrived today! not pleased with how it’s packaged but am glad it arrived at all and with the picks as advertised!

I jumped the gun when I posted, only isn’t anything came. They shipped separately for some reason, but loveless just showed today.  So many picks. 

Nevermind. I originally wrote about how I picked up a used copy of the VMP de-loused and the static didn’t bother me. After a few more listens it bothers me.

Nope, it just showed up with my other packages.

Nothing yet for me either. I’ve pretty much given up, but let me know how the response goes.

Would this also be the cause of the skipping, or would it not have an effect? Thanks. 

Maybe.  Could also be your needle if it’s actually skipping and not just static or a little pop. Also check that your tonearm is weighted properly.
