Ask and you shall receive!

I'm not a big fan of ebay at all. I'm more than a little paranoid about sketchy sellers and/or buyers. So he got to keep the original money you paid for the record and ebay just gave you their money? No harm no foul on either party?
 
I think ebay can be kind of crappy. He may have also been scammed in that way before (I'd say it could be common with ebay). Just figured you were one of the many. I always try and remember that people don't know who you are online. It's not an attack on your character because he doesn't know you.

This thread is full of some pretty useful information. It's always important to know just who you are supporting when you purchase from a "label" like ETR. Just overall super scummy. I'm sure Ross isn't excited his dirty laundry is getting aired. It all comes back around to get you.
I mean come on though prices are all okay when you get a pog thrown in. That has to offset the price a little right?

Got this in today. It looks so fantastic and sounds great. Easily one of my favorite vinyl releases this year. Super great price as well.

Yeah a $30.17 "bundle" which is the cheapest option to get the record is ridiculous. I don't see any reason that there shouldn't be  a $15-17 option. Also and honestly the reality is it is barely a "bundle" because most labels just throw in a download code or CD free of charge.

I do not agree with his viewpoint at all. Actually reading the article made me feel kind of sorry for him because I'm not sure he even understands what he is saying. His viewpoint is hey it's cool to price gouge. I think making a product and selling it a fair price that fans can have it and labels/bands make a profit is great. Taking advantage of the consumer is just wrong. Even if the consumer has taken advantage of you at times. The old saying is true two wrongs don't make a right. All the great labels have a great consideration for their fans and that fans returns the favor by supporting them and appreciating them. Smaller labels like Topshelf, In The Clouds, and Tiny Engines get a lot of love because they treat their customers with respect and provide a quality product at a fair price. Instead of patting the greedy labels on the back and saying good job he should be commending labels doing it the right way.
 
I'd say Jason Tate's record collection probably consist of 50-100 records he's picked up within the last year or so and he's probably never seen anything priced decently so he doesn't understand how drastically prices have gone up over the last 4-5 years and how quite a few webstores/labels are taking advantage of customers in a very uncool way. He just wants to get in on the vinyl rage by writing an article about it and making himself look like some vinyl now it all.

Funny because he basically said a page back that he does exactly what he doesn't want his kids to do blow all their money on stuff all at once. This might be one of the goofiest threads I've read in a while. I can't even feel sorry for someone so clueless.

If the variant bundles don't sell out they will be broken up next month and sold separately

I don't think I once saw a mod say "NO MORE FUCKING BLINK 182 THREADS". So there are what, like 2 more of these splatter records coming out? Who is to say you can't make a "PO SOON Blink 182 Greatest Hits" thread?
These catch all threads always wind up being the biggest cluster fucks because there is too much going on. So even the catch all thread for just Blink 182 got out of hand because none of the casual new members of the board could keep up with what was going on, then the same stupid questions get asked, then the veteran board members get irritated/bored and start spamming the thread with dumb shit.

I don't think it would sound better with guitars. That being said a better album might sound better with guitars.On the lyrics I just disagree that it's much better than I've heard on the last couple SA albums.

I don't mind it.

I don't mind it.

HAHAHAHAHAHA. Also don't lie to this person there is nothing easy about shipping records through the mail. The first time they get a seam split it will break their heart.

$24.50?!?! You're running a fucking racket, Hot Topic. Damn, I might just go with the clear variant now.

wait. they emailed you to tell you to update the forum they own?
 
it doesn't get more unprofessional than that. you're seriously defending them by saying they're just too busy to do stuff like that? do you think they just found out that the records weren't shipping today? 

I was checking Modern Vinyl info on their podcast and they had a correction about these FOB pressings for a recent podcast they released. It seems like someone needs to correct their correction. This is what they said as a correction to something they said on their podcast:

From MV:
 
As an example, I talk about Fall Out Boy’s vinyl rights being given away by a major label. I forgot that it’s already happened as those vinyl rights went to Hot Topic (most likely without their knowledge). And actually, we didn’t mention that Hot Topic is another organization which happens to press things without band approval at times.

How many people just don't understand how Hot Topic works and that it isn't a label and doesn't actually press things they just buy them and carry them in their store? You'd think a vinyl site could at least get the facts straight.
