timbrh2001 got a reaction from stl_ben in The Mondo Records Thread - You think limited? Will sell fast?
I'm sure he made a killing at MondoCon this year. Unfortunately for him, he's sorely overestimating Edmiston's market. Just wait it out, these things will be much cheaper down the road. Mondo has a gazillion Halloween prints and none of em (other than the Taylor) fetch decent money. http://m.ebay.com/itm/Jason-Edmiston-Halloween-Official-Mondo-Print-Jon-Carpenter-Exclusive-Screening-/401005774991?nav=SEARCH

timbrh2001 got a reaction from Spektorologist in The Mondo Records Thread - You think limited? Will sell fast?
Don't worry, I'm not really "back", haha. Haven't bought a single thing Mondo in about a year and don't really follow what they're doing anymore. However, I am really good at hitting on Mondo online drops (I know a few Shopify "tricks", not gonna give out my secrets so don't bother asking) so I figured I'd offer up my services to someone in the future if they were able to help me out.Print is called Machinehat. Not typically something the Mondos are gonna fall all over themselves looking to snatch it up so I'll probably hit on the online release but figure I'd try my luck here first before resorting to that route.

Figure it's a long shot but if anyone is headed to MondoCon and would be willing to pick up the Joao Ruas print from the Vacvvm booth for me, shoot me a PM. Can return the favor at a later time if needed.

Real men fight with fists not call each other on the phone and whine to each other. Get your manhood straight bro.

Back in my day you had to walk 6 miles in the snow over a mountain to the closest record store just for the chance to buy Frampton Comes Alive on vinyl. Goddamn Millenials have shit so easy these days...

Pretty sure I got the poster but who the heck knows. That site was a nightmare to navigate through. Had a ton of gateway timeouts before being able to submit my order.

timbrh2001 got a reaction from mmhmm in DACs
Thanks for the input. I picked up a Schiit MODI DAC for now to get me started and have dedicated a laptop to my office setup. Loaded up mainly 24/96 FLAC albums onto Media Monkey (some 16 bit albums where there is no current option for 24 bit). I've opened home sharing so if I were to need to play any mp3s, I can stream the ones wirelessly that are on my main computer in my family room.

timbrh2001 got a reaction from Royce in so is anyone into collection prints/posters also?
Well...
God this could take a while if I felt like going into huge detail. Though I feel most of it is really anal, so I'll stick to the basics.
First things first, start getting your prints flattened. You never want to put a rolled print directly into a frame. To do this, make an acid free foamcore sandwich and either use clips or an evenly distributed weight (such as plywood or a pane of glass) to help keep the sandwich together. Be very careful not to bend your print while pressing the foamcore sandwich together. I assume since your ghibli prints haven't been in a tube for very long, this process should only last a week or two but that all depends on the paper and the sized tube (3" or 4") that the print was rolled in.
You can buy spacers that will separate your print from the glass. Not very expensive either.
Your cheapest bet is UV plexi glass to protect from UV rays of natural sunlight and/or house lighting. The cost can go all the way up to museum glass.
You'll also need acid free foamcore backing, which framesbymail.com offers for a small additional charge.
Here's what I do for a cheap DIY alternative.
framesbymail.com
Get your custom sized frame there for a good price. They also offer matting if you so desire. Don't buy your plexiglass there because they don't offer UV protection. They do sell spacers in 5-foot lengths and are about $3 a piece. Their spacers have an adhesive side that you attach to the outskirts of the plexiglass outside of the viewing area.
Go to either americanframes.com or if you have a hobby lobby near by, they can get you the UV glass/plexi cut custom sized. I believe there's been a long running 40% off coupon for Hobby Lobby UV glass/plexi.
Since framesbymail.com frames don't come with wire, you can pickup like a 500-foot roll off amazon.com for like $25. They do come with the hangers though, so all you'll need is the wire.
I'd also recommend getting framers tape to seal the back of the foamcore to the back of the frame. That way, moisture cannot get into your frame. I believe that's like $14 off amazon.com for a good sized roll.
Also, don't go by what an online dimension is of your print. Make sure to measure your print exactly before ordering the custom frame. Often times the online dimensions aren't exact or just plain wrong.
If you're interested in learning more and getting totally anal about your framing, use these forums.

That's Highway robbery considering what this box originally sold for. Not surprised though as there are a ton of nut bag cat lady RA fans out there that will use these LPs as a pillow.

That's crazy talk. Ryan Adams' greatest years as a musician were when Neal Casal was a member of The Cardinals. Their live shows were absolutely amazing from 06-08. I recommend you study up on a bunch of those SBDs floating around the internet. -

I'm sure it will be released in conjunction with Pax Am, like Columbia had done w/ A&F. Pax Am is just too small to handle the demand so he hires out a bigger label to do the distribution/marketing/etc... on his full length releases.
