  1. I've gotten LPs shipped in medium-size pizza boxes before, but it has been a long time. Luckily, the only times that ever happened, the LPs were pretty old, not in great condition, and were dirt cheap anyway. I'd be pissed too if I paid more than a couple bucks for a record and it came shipped in a pizza box.

    I've actually received a record in a pizza box from ebay also, but at least the seller treated it like a LP mailer and put cardboard and bubble wrap to prevent movement/damage.

    I'd say that's miles ahead two pieces of cardboard taped together, or the dreaded bubble mailer.

  2. Ya know...you shouldn't just be blunt and say you have money to waste, even if you do.

    Always go for the low ball offer and work your way from there. Believe it or not there's actually decent people out there who are willing to let their stuff go for not much over retail, but no one is going to do that if you're giving cash away.

  3. or you could just not let other people bother you so much.

    True, but hard when your scene gets affected because of others.

    I don't see very much of this in here at all.

    It's cool of you to assume most of the people in here are just "jumping on the bandwagon", I guess.

    I actually referenced Burial on the last page I'm pretty sure, so I'm not sure what someone said to make you believe this is the case.

    I think Skrillex is really talented for the type of music he makes. It may just be "brostep" but it's probably the best brostep I've ever heard.

    I haven't heard anything else from the genre I've liked.

    Maybe most of the people in here just have a good ear for this type of music.

    I never pointed fingers, so don't take it personal.

    Skrillex does nothing to set him apart from others. He'll be a forgotten name in a couple of years and have moved on to the next money maker, as he did with FFTL. With 12 years of listening to EDM I've seen a lot of trends come and go.

    I'm gonna step out of the thread because I don't want to start drama, if you'd like to continue a discussion with me send a PM.

    I'll just end with knowing someone's musical taste can explain a lot.

  4. Really wish I could just walk away from this thread ("to each his own, etc), but it's really sad to see so many people jump on the brostep bandwagon. It's not so much the listeners who follow trends and get sucked into hypes but the producers who are trying to cash in.

    I'll just say to those listening to this wobbley influnced stuff, you need to dig dipper. It's the equivalent of saying you listen to rock if you listen to Fall Out Boy, R&B if you listen to Bieber, or hip hop if you listen to Bow Wow. Safely manufactured, paint by numbers, follow the winning formula music.

    Give artists like Burial, Clubroot, and Sines a listen.

  5. Buyer protection.

    pretty sure your credit card has the same, if not better, protection

    True, but from my experience paypal has always pulled through with a refund if something went wrong with an order, where as credit cards got store credit.

    Forgot to mention some people don't feel safe giving their information away.

  6. Maybe he was including the picture disc?

    then i wonder if they just fucked up the first batch of the black/blue, and just decided to run with it as a 3rd variant

    This has actually crossed my mind before. Don't understand why they had two variants for OLG but not Juturna. Especially when the dark blue/black doesn't look great imo.
