Group Buy Guy

I bought two of the pink, so I could smash one and it would be the rarest variant.

Jumping in here with my dumbass hot take.
 
IMHO Purple had the most emotion behind it coming off the accident. It really hit hard for me because they were updating us so infrequently and we honestly didn't know if they would eve play again at all. So when they randomly dropped "Chlorine and Wine" on us, I was just ecstatic. 

15(vaporwave)^2

I mean, if you like one you gotta like em all.

9 out of 10 "vapour brats" buy both.

Throw a dart, maybe?

How does one decide on Pink Bae or Blue Bae?

Who are your favorite artists?

If it is, I hope it’s leagues better than Y&G but I’m not holding my breath after that short clip above.

They are updating their store. Everything is out of stock.

Tells people to grow up, then uses a “your mom” comeback...

That is some album art.

AU to US conversation rate makes it much more manageable than you would think.
 
I think I paid like 65 for both and shipping international

Y'all are fucking dumb if you're mad about deluxe edition tracks being available digitally. I don't want to have to be home and pull out that picture disc every time I want to hear those tracks... do you even listen to them at all or just need something to be angry about?

As a box set owner, I'ma need this in red. 

3 copies of the /100 Incantation went back up at relapse.

Welcome to the boards.
 
I think the first and biggest “golden rule” to follow is to simply stack your records vertical.  Always.  As hip as it may look to have a bunch of albums sprawled out on a living room table or laying on top of one another, you can never beat the traditional vertical stack.
 
The most common record shelf comes in the way of IKEA’s Kallax.  (Not sure if that’s the name it still has – shouldn’t be hard to locate on their site though.)  The opening space is something like 13” x 13” which is perfect for a stack of records, while still providing a little wiggle room.  You could probably fit your current collection into 1 cube of these, so I’d probably get a 1 x 2 for immediate use or a 2 x 2 to future-proof your setup a bit.
 
You’ll want to invest in some sleeves for your jackets.  I personally sleeve everything I own, regardless of rarity or value.  There are a few sites out there that sell sleeves in bulk, so you can get a pack of 50 or more and stash them for later use.  Square Deal and Sleeve City seem to be the 2 sites I see referenced the most for sleeves, though I’ve ordered decent sleeves through Amazon in the past, too.
 
It’s not too priority, but you’ll really come to appreciate anti-static polylined record sleeves.  Swap them out with the traditional paper sleeves you get with 99% of your records – not only do they attract less dust and crud, but they’re also way less likely to scuff your vinyl when placing them in or taking them out for use.
 
And finally, I’d start looking into a good wet cleaner at some point down the road.  Someone may be able to make some suggestions on that front because I don’t have a go-to, but they’re imperative for cleaning up records and will even spruce up a lot of the brand new, modern music releases that sound noisy on first listen.
 
Hope that sets you in the right direction.  It’s an expensive hobby but also a rewarding one.

Hey everyone,
 
I’m somewhat new to the vinyl world, especially when it comes to storage practices. I’ve done some research over the past few days and was surprised at how much thought goes into vinyl storage. I have around 50 vinyl albums and I’m sure that my collection is going to continue to grow larger. Some of these albums are really special to me...limited editions, special pressings, etc, and I really want to make sure that I keep everything in great shape. 
 
What do you guys suggest? I would assume that although there are tons of different strategies, there are a few golden rules that everyone agrees on.  I’m open to any suggestions. 
 
Thanks in advance. Really enjoying the forum so far.

*must be higher than Snoop in the 90's to fully appreciate the sound quality.

Thinking about the blue inside purple A7X — Nightmare 2xLP. Is it worth it? Anyone able to comment on sound quality?
