Oh, the arrogance and lack of VC etiquette from some people around here is mind-numbing.

Can we just wait and merge the imminent shitstorm of Riot and Deja?
 

So I've been summoned to the topic, and I'm going to address this. ONCE. If you care to discuss ethics with me, feel free to PM me. I'm not going to continue talking about it in this topic.
 
Yes, I'm selling my 2nd red copy on ebay. Here's the backstory, for those who care -- I was trying VERY hard to find a red variant because I really, really love this album. None of my attempts were working, until one day, two things came through and I somehow found myself with two red copies.
 
"Why didn't you sell it to a VC user at cost?!"
 
The first I paid 50 for, which was reasonable, and the second I had dropped 80 on (less reasonable) - but that was only because I didn't think the first one would come through. At this point, I just wanted to make my money back. And on a side note, I wasn't too inclined to help out a bunch of people who downvoted my posts because I was excitable. Talk about a group of killjoys.
 
I put it on ebay for 75 dollars, LESS than I paid for it. At that point, it was up to the bidders. I didn't tell anyone to bid higher, but they did. Because supply and demand. And that is such a basic concept that even an elementary schooler can tell you the basics. 
 
EVERYONE has sold a record for profit if they've collected for long enough. And if you haven't, well, you're terrible at economics. If you think it's "noble" to sell a record for way cheaper than it will go for, then props to you, but I'm an adult with bills to pay and I have to worry about that while juggling this expensive hobby on the side, so yes, if a record fetches a certain price - BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO PAY - I'm going to sell it for that price. Sorry if you don't have money issues because you still live with mom and dad. You don't have to spend the money, and no one is forcing the people who DO spend that money to do so.
 
I also am selling my Head and the Heart sonic boom edition, as someone found and posted in the other topic. Similar story. I got the Sonic Boom one because I missed the original loser edition and I happened to be online during the brief time it went on sale. Later that week I saw the loser edition in Amoeba and I got that. I liked the loser edition more. The sonic boom edition was selling on Ebay for 90-120 dollars. Why would I sell for less, if that's what it goes for? It's insane that some people think you're a bad person for giving in to market economics. No one would blink an eye at someone selling Demon Days for 200 dollars, despite the fact that it cost 15 dollars when it first came out. 
 
Moral of the story is, downvote me all you want if it makes you happy. The number beside my name in my profile is already so low that I couldn't give two shits. Anyone who has taken a moment to talk to me on the board outside of these shit-fest topics or had a transaction with me can verify that I'm an incredibly friendly and nice person, which is more than I can say for the lot of you.

Vacuum that carpet my god

Bitch. Moan. Complain. Whine. Wah wah wah.

New Turntable set up FedEx brought it to me bright and early!!!!! Currently tracking at 1.9 grams!! Sounds freaking sweet!!!! Thanks to all the people who told me that the LP 90 Sucked HA HA HA!!
 

It blows my mind SRC is based out of a city an hour away from me and shipping is 17$

I like to remove all the shrink wrap from mine and write my last name with a big black sharpie on the front cover so everyone knows it's mine.  That's the cool thing to do these days.

I like to take mine out so they can breathe.
 
This way the sounds will mature and in 20 or 30 years, they'll sound fantastic.

I would say the reasoning for no one moving was the fact that it was a completely seated event and there was no where to move. I was there too 

True.
So there is a 70% chance the tie die ends up being a brownish poop mix color and the swirl ends up being solid light blue. Lol

while I generally agree with this (I am not a variant collector...), there is nothing wrong with repurposing shitty-old-beat-to-fuck 45s.  Seriously, does the world need to listen to more scratched copies of Herb Alpert? 

Until this thread I just assumed everyone with the Rudolph avatar was the same person, I wasnt even looking at the names.
Now that Ive realized this....its annoying.

I guess all you people who thought it was a bad idea for me to make a phone order and use my hotcash for this aren't thinking it was such a bad idea now.

Am I the only asshole that thought all the rudolphs on the board lately were the same guy?

I suspect some folks are starting to miss all the talk of Sweatpants at this point. 

Ordered and received shipping confirmation within maybe 4 hours? Should be good to go now. 
 

Save the world looks and sounds amazing!
