Yeah im not sure.  One went for 2k on ebay a few months ago.  Others ive seen for 800, 900.  Just thought it was nuts.  

Anyone have a sound comparison between the MOV Morning View and the current 180g pressing out there??

Ended up the best deal.........Billie Eilish Live at Third Man.  The one she hand splattered herself.   Retail price at Third Man Records.  

 

One just sold for $2300 on discogs 🤭

Pretty sure The Replacements wont be sought after.  Im staying home.  

My wife just ordered the CD version.  Signed edition.  Took like three months to ship and we’re pretty sure she packed them herself lol.  Good album according to the wife. 

I consider this her third album lol. 
 

this kid is great.  I hear nothing but early 90s Boston alternative when i listen to her.

It’s pretty good.

Thanks.  I’ll pick up one of these if they ever come down in price.  I only really love When I Was Young and Boxing Day.  That’s an expensive two song single for me right now. 

Hows the uh.....how’s the pressing?

I was able to get ghost of Tsushima, these mondo releases always seem to go up have way through 59.

Yeah i grabbed mine at :59.   

Ghost of Tsushima sold out in about 30 seconds. 

In 2000 or 2001 i was bored and drove over to “the old mall” which by then was mostly offices.   But in the 80s and early 90s it was a great place to hang out.  Really busy place.   
 

Only two stores were still open, one being the old record store.  They had some great vinyl.  Rare Pearl Jam records, other 90s alternative.  Bought everything i could afford.  

Ended up the best deal.........Billie Eilish Live at Third Man.  The one she hand splattered herself.   Retail price at Third Man Records.  

Best find was probably someone selling Tron Legacy (Numbered edition) for $30 when it was $150-$200 all over the rest of ebay.  

Best sale?  Pearl Jam Live at the Orpheum for $675.

It’s like the good old Mightier Than Sword TOYPAJ debacle of 2012(?)

Get stoked

I think i joined up here in 2012 and even then SRC was not well received (along with the guy who told everyone to Get Stoked! @ MTS). 
 

im a fan of SRC’s blink pressings.  I dont really have a reason to mess with them other than that, but they did well with the ones i bought.  

LOL the gift was a free swirl??  
 

either the greatest or the worst company ever. 

Yeah i love the red.  Swirls are nice too.  Looks like milk in black coffee lol

Have any bloods shown up in the wild?

Don gets a pass because I really don't expect him to keep up with (or care) about modern-day internet slang, but how has anyone browsed online over the last 3-4 years and not stumbled across someone using the phrase based?

I know it in the past tense term of “I don’t know if Joe smokes cigarettes but I do know that he free based cocaine the other day”.  

other than that im not hip with the slang.   But im also old.  I have two kids in college!

yeah i had no idea what based meant and i had no idea who aaron weiss is.  I think i figured it out.

How could a store do QC on sealed albums?thats ridiculous. I’ve never returned an album to a store ever. Warping happens it’s part of the hobby. Get a flattener. 
 

although I do agree that warping seems more common in general now than say 5 years ago. 

I usually wont return them if i bought it locally.   Even if i should.      
 

im just not seeing a lot of warped records.   One a year maybe out of buying 40 or 50.  

There’s some kind of QC issue going on somewhere unless all you buy are LPs with 80page booklets inside.   

i’ve been buying vinyl from local shops since 1994 or so and i rarely ever have had to take a record back.   75% is insane. 

The splatter looks nicer than the solid colors they originally showed

My daughter was a big Paramore fan back then.  I remember being really surprised to hear them playing a Sunny Day Real Estate cover back then.  They have good influences.
