I was just telling my friends how these are the best songs he's put out since Battle Studies! I was lucky enough to see him in a 150 Cap room in January.

yeh what timsimmons said, but i happened to see it on instagram. he posted a picture of a can of soup and i knew from that it would be a venue called the soup kitchen which is just round the corner from my flat. i was pretty lucky, im still buzzin about it!

I was lucky enough to see ryan play prisoner in full at a secret show in Manchester last night, it was absolute magic and the new songs sound great!

Oh, rub it in.

Last few records that arrived after the above pictures were taken.

And then the rest of the collection is below for reference lol.
 
 
 

Yes I agree, most signed things in my collection I've attained in person, but this was a happy bonus. Just weird that it's not a thing in this field, and that apparently $390 is a mind numbing amount of money to spend on a record that everyone needs to make a cheeky comment about. I don't care, I wanted this and I'm fortunate I had the disposable income to drop on it. I didn't even mention what I'd spent and only shared the link to aid with the backstory on this. Brand New is a huge band and a run of 100 of their debut album is scarce.
I run a comic book, original comic art, & vintage collectibles business and a huge aspect of collecting comics is getting books signed by the creators and then having them graded by a 3rd party service like CGC. We deal with a ton of signed collectibles certified by PSA as well. You'd be hard pressed to go on a comic book collecting board and find anyone price shaming anyone else in the hobby out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness.

frank turner - positive songs for negative people £6.99 for prime members. i bought this the other day for £3.99 which is an absolute steal but it seems to have gone up since then. still a decent price.

there was absolutely nothing different about the fall out boy and nirvana "exclusives" last year either, they just slapped a number on it.  

i hate this, the customer isnt always right.
 
in the interest of fairness, i bought the 7" deal and i was more than happy with what i got as well as the packaging. extra fox, any chance we can see pics of the actual records? did they come banged up?

like others in this thread, i buy a fraction of what i used to simply because prices have sky rocketed. when i first started collecting in 2005, i was 15 and making about £50 a week... i would go into hmv where they sold 7" singles for 99p, the 1st one i ever bought was sugar were going down by fall out boy. i remember you could get 3 versions, one of which was signed by the whole band, for £5. 7" singles now are £7.99 ish for 2 songs. i went into hmv a few weeks ago and they were selling the 1975 for £28, thats the equivalent of $40. its not the economy thats gonna bring an end to the hobby, its the exorbitant prices charged due to the rising popularity of vinyl. 

I took photos of all of my NOFX awhile back. Here is everything I have besides the 7 inch of the month club and several doubles.

about to undergo some minor changes/additions when it comes to what's hung on the walls, but this is the basic idea.

Just bought all of these on ebay very stoked to finally have CSD variant of beach music as well as Carrie & Lowell. Don't really care about the others too much but I will definitely check them all out as well.
 

This is fucking stupid

10% seems awfully low. If it were 25% or something, i'd consider. This isn't a charity auction, its a "Giving a very small percent to charity auction". To each their own.

It isn't much but I figured I'd share
