Bought one of each, cuz I'm a sucker.

 

Good luck. They're hard to get a hold of.

I would actually try facebook or twitter over emails. They haven't ever been good at responding to emails. At least for me.

 

 

I think im the bigger sucker for buying the tape. Oh wells, live and learn. #Hold out for vinyl!

JDE is live on neoncity bandcamp. Pic disc and black vinyl are available. 

Got the picture disc. I want to cancel my tape order. Has anyone tried to cancel an order with neoncity before?

Ordered, siked its the original master not the redux. Got the test press last week

How did you get a test press, ive been checking the website almost everyday to try to snag one

Pulled the trigger....came out to be 39.84 with tax. Shipping was "free".

Damn, just saw this. Although mostly just liked the cover, so wash.

30 USD is steep af for Yung Bae but shipping to Canada was 9.50 which is dirt-cheap by today's standards so it ended up costing as much as any other Neoncity Record although it seems to be self-released?

4.66 U.S. shipping.  Not too bad for a vinyl record. However, can't believe I just  impulse bought the Japanese Disco Edit tape just now. $19. Uggg. I'll just say I just found a nice vintage technics  tape deck for $10 and need to play something in it. haha

Haven't even got my preorder from EV or a shipping notice yet. Had bought another record with this order and it went out of stock by the time this was to ship. Pretty annoyed, you think they would hold stock once it is placed. Lame.

Sweet thanks for the heads up.

Instagram target marketing pointing me to this Vinyl gem.

Sweet can't wait. Desired is awesome. Kind of wish I had bought one of their tapes on business casual, but ended up with the "free" dl on bandcamp.

Neoncity updates coming in fast & often today:

I'm gonna aim for the "special edition crystal" at 10PM EST (Good thing I had no plans tonight) but since I got two other black vinyl from this label, I'm not going to cry if I miss out on it. I might cry having to wake up at 6AM tomorrow to not miss out completely lol.

 

By the way, thanks for the heads up. I don't have fb or twitter. Saw your post in time to stalk the black vinyl release.

Now the waiting game.....6 to 9 weeks.....more like 6 to 9 months. Still waiting on Timeless, pun intended. Haha. Would like Cham! on vinyl. Actually bought their cd and it so far is my favorite Macross 82 99. 

Damn totally missed it....3am... 2 more hours. Id be happy to snag a black copy.

Macross 82-99  up on Neon City Bandcamp. Going fast...saw 20 tapes sold in 5 mins. Of me debating if i wanted to spend $20 on a tape. Haha

Swapped for Demon Days even though i already have it. Was also going to get the Miles Davis Coltrane, but wasn't available.  It seems Ive swapped every two releases. It might be time to cancel....

Yep still waiting on Timeless Lp. I did get the Sailorwave and Cham Cds a while back. Couldn't pull the trigger on the Sailorwave II $18 cassette tape.  

I have two tickets for the MXPX show at the Troubadour on July 7. 

Show is sold out. Selling 2 tickets for $80, which is close to cost after paypal fees. I have pdf tickets to email.

Thanks for looking.

The plan for marketing is through different outlets. Facebook will be a huge marketing tool for us. I have a Facebook page ready to roll and we plan to roll out advertising campaigns through Facebook, such as contests, giveaways, paid advertisement etc. Also I will be sponsoring a couple record fairs that are set to go ahead this summer locally. 

I deactivated my Facebook account a ways back. It just seems a little obsolete like myspace. I mostly use Instagram now, but its purely dedicated to my hobbies like record collecting. I think if you can tap into building a community somehow you might survive for a while, but you will have to constantly evolve to understand the market.

Good customer service is nice, but it won't lead to sales per se. Soundstagedirect.com has awesome customer service, but price is king. 

There's a lot of competition now a days. Ive seen a lot of online vinyl shops come and go. You might survive if you sell a niche genre but  your market dwindles in buyers. Im not too familair with the Canada market, so maybe you can make an impact, but how will you advertise and get traffic to your site?

Neoncity Update:

At this point, I started to burn these to CD and printed the J-cards for the covers.  Hopefully I can get a vinyl copy one day

Really  hope they have extras
