Off topic but I am crossing my fingers for a second record of demos and live tracks for the inevitable New Adventures in Hi Fi reissue.

I'm really hoping for any reissue of this tbh. And 'Monster'...for the love of all things, give me a RP of 'Monster'!

Have the originals, so will be passing, but glad others will be able to own these two amazing albums. 

 

PS - if you really like the band, check out the lead singer’s side project/new band: The Gentle Hits. 

Gentle Hits is fantastic!

Why not just buy and collect records and get a job that will always yield you a pay check? I've sold records on the side for 10 years and while it's a nice help to my income, it just turns into more fucking work. I like records less because I'm bombarded with the need to sell all this shit I've bought. Literally have an extra bedroom with 1,500-2,000 records that I plan on selling but lack the motivation to do anything about. And this year makes twenty years since I bought my first record.

 

All this to say, I'd prefer to make a steady paycheck and just randomly sell when I feel like it (which I do, at record shows 3-4 times a year). I hate needing to rely on 'record money' and needing to hustle when I don't make enough. It's stressing, trust me.
 
Anything, even the cool hobbies, turns in to an annoying job eventually. 

not about records specifically, but I think it depends on the person and the situation. I have been self employed as an irrigation repair/install tech for 5 years and have a few landscape maintenance accounts for guaranteed recurring payments. I make okay money. What helps in a successful business? Multiple enterprises. I also resell(fine call it flipping) toys that I find from Goodwill, Craigslist, friends, etc. Adds to my income nicely when I really try. On top of that, I dabble in investments, which has yet to do much for me but still learning. I am by no means rich, but I LOVE the hustle every day. Sure there are days where I may make only $50, but I put that on me as the person doing the work; I need to work harder I tell myself. As it stands I make comparable doing what I do, working ~25 hours a week, to what I would make at a 40 hr/wk job with a steady paycheck. There are extra headaches like getting your own insurance, quarterly taxes (UGH), finding inventory or customers, handling marketing, etc. I can't see the next time I will go back to working for someone else, but hey that's just my opinion man.

TLDR: Some people enjoy the hustle over a paycheck from a company. To each his/her own, but I enjoying compounding my "bad" stress into "good" stress which, in turn, lights a fire under my ass to work harder and pay da bills.

Ordered so fast. Loved this band; both albums are stone cold classics imo. 

Did you find a copy? Pm me if not, would let go of mine.

Even from that picture you can see it's a coke bottle clear though. I'm 99% sure there are no "crystal clear" copies.

Ahh gotcha. Some seller trying to make it more appealing probably. "Only 100 wow!!"

Bumping this from the dead. But anyone know what the clear variant of Control is out of / what year it's from? Not coke bottle clear. just standard clear.

Not sure if this is accurate or not, but theres a listing from popsike that claims its from 2002 and is out of 100. Never noticed this variant!

Fuuuuck just saw they're pressing Adam Sandler's They're All Going To Laugh At You.... This is gonna be a very nostalgic RSD.

This is awesome! I was all about this album growing up. I still see janitors to this day and think to myself, "mop, mop, mop all day long. mop, mop, mop while I sing this song." Nostalgia indeed!

I’m assuming you no longer have it, but if you still have the poster I’ll pay double what you were asking

Three posts up from yours, and almost four years ago, the seller posted it sold. Attention to detail is for the birds, amirite?

Ex Rumspringer and New Colonies bringing new tunes with some new dudes and a new name. Playing Awesome Fest this year and a 7 inch coming in a couple months on Night Animal records. Pay what you want for the ep on bandcamp until then. If you enjoy pop punk then you will dig this. Not my band or label, but they are friends of mine and am stoked about what they're doing! Self proclaimed NPR punk...

does it sound good though?

Colors matter more, duh. 

Already own all of these but want that shirt!

Bump it up. For those unaware this was Steve Brooks' band before Torche. Check it out and grab this set. Up on ebay as well...

Thee inevitable 2+ albums put out by  Oh Sees this year.

Moving and could use some funds for the deposit. Never listen to this anymore but its a beast of a set. No shirt with it, but all records, cds, and 7 inch intact. Self titled cd is the only one I listened to but still in great condition. Small stain on spine from previous owner, I am the second owner. Only albums from the box available outside the box are self titled and Dove, truly all you will ever need for your Floor collection. Holla atcha boy for pics or whatever.

220 ppd in US!

Really want a Death of Cool Island Raiders repress. I know it was Narnack but its the only hole in the collection and prices have gone nuts on second hand market  :/

New album is top of the year for me though, wow.

Insound already raised some prices back up. I was gonna make a pretty big purchase considering the prices but not anymore, I guess I saved some money but I'll never see those Soul Coughing that cheap ever again.

Now that is a super bum-bum :\

Long shot, but does anyone have a screenshot of the Nightmare on Elm Street box set?  They said they'd honor the price if I proved it.

Crap..I should have put in an order but then read it got canceled. I have a screen cap of it in my cart at that price with another item. Has the item number in it as well. If that may work let me know.

Nah, I enjoy them quite a lot.

So now if/when you listen to Brand New, do you turn the volume down if someone is within earshot?

I look over my shoulder before i put anything by them on the turntable

So whack. Was really looking forward to this, but oh well nuts to that. Who are the ad wizards who came up with this one?

Bump. Spend your hard earned payday bucks on some sweet AZ jams
