zuck

No I won't.

Yeesh. I'd have reservations about flipping if this was a long out-of-print album that meant something to people (ie the As Cities Burn LP), but this is a 2 cover song split 12". It's a collection filler. It's not a significant release by any stretch of the imagination, the Thrice song was a free online giveaway in a sweepstakes entry (and I just listened to it, it's the most boring, by-the-numbers Beatles cover I've ever heard. And I saw Across the Universe.)
 
There's been a sharp uptick in talking about this board as a "community", but confusingly, it seems to mostly get used to mean "place where people preorder extra copies of records for each other". Flippers* are demonized as "enemies of the community" because they do what they want with the records they buy, instead of being "solid dudes" and "hooking a fellow board member up at cost". But why the allegiance? So someone else posts on the same message board as you, I don't know 95% of you people personally outside of buying and selling records and I'm pretty sure the same holds true for you all as well. Commerce != community. And most of the time, we're talking about limited variants or tour singles or whatever being flipped, brand new records with new music on them that will probably be available on various formats (including standard vinyl) in the near future. There's no reason they should hold any extra intrinsic value beyond the value of the music itself, but the vitriolic rage I regularly read when an inevitable eBay link gets posted would make one think that someone kidnapped your dog.
 
All I'm saying is going after record flippers is like the shittiest moral crusade you could possibly go on. Instead, channel your energy in this manner: the next time you find yourself about to drop insane money on a /100 splatter pressing or a live 3 song 7" that will spend its life in a box, ask yourself whether joylessly buying endless copies of endless releases "to keep the collection going" is really about being a big fan of Band X or whether we've been conditioned to associate accumulating possessions with happiness. And maybe, just maybe, the flippers will eventually have no one to sell to.
 
*I should say, the only records I've flipped in my life are the 4 first press colors of Enema of the State. I made about $200, traded for some big wants, the album stayed in print for like a year over various pressings, and no one got hurt. Also, I sold my first press Deja Entendu, Is A Real Boy, and Heavens' Patent Pending on these boards for around $20 each back in 08, so you're damn right I'm going to try and make some money off this board for once.

It's a little late, but thanks for the link. Just checked 'em out & I really dig this band. Both their albums are really good.

I should be around on friday when these go up, so I'll be trying to get a few extra to help out.

Last one for now:

Still looking for Sure Death 1 and 2 (demos) and the ouija board but i’m pretty sure i’m not going to be able to get my hands on those……..ever.

They weren't referring to that DJ Quik. The Nestles Quick bunny has a cousin that happens to be an underground DJ & he goes by that stage name. I'm pretty sure they were talking about him.
