radiatorhums Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 That's disappointing. Hopefully everyone knows you can buy it straight from Mezzotint's website. Don't let the flippers succeed! I know flippers are part of RSD and the hobby, it always will be. But it irks me when it's an active community member. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toomanyrecords Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Looks like Kess is being a turd and trying to flip a few copies of the Polaris RSD release. http://www.discogs.com/seller/kessl3r/profile That's his account according to this thread. http://boards.vinylcollective.com/topic/107267-taking-offers-on-my-tradelist-for-the-first-time/ This sounds like back peddling but I didn't even mean to list that record. Check my haul pic I only have one copy.. And I have no desire to sell it. I'm hopefully seeing them next week in LA!! Besides, stores only let you get one copy.

toomanyrecords Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I'm done trying to justify myself to the hypocritical children on this board. Not flipping RSD records. Even if I were though, it shouldn't be your fucking concern. Live your own life. It's always going to happen, so just don't pay those prices. vinyl addict 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Family Friendly Rap God Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 That's pretty damn reasonable. I got my copy for $30 at my local store. That was a good price! My store had it for $30 as well Vector53 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuzzersonKillwell Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Haha. I meant to add it to discogs but I accidentally created a listing on eBay, added a description, price and hit post auction. Oops! Silly me. Duff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanyrecords Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Here's a bit of much needed perspective for ya'll What if someone had a terminal disease and couldn't afford the medical care, and was trying to make money in any way possible, and found they could by flipping records? Would that make them a "turd" just because you couldn't get your precious out of print wax disks for a price YOU personally find fair? Christ. Just an example, an extreme one mind you, to illustrate how fuckin self righteous this board is. vinyl addict 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aphasias Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 The only thing that was upsetting is that the store was selling them for $60 and had everything marked up really high. Last year was the same - close to $55 for the MGMT rsd release. (Sigh) I walked into my local shop around 5pm after work yesterday. They didn't have much left, but I decided against picking up the little they did have when I saw a copy of that Brand New record still on the shelf... marked at $70.

itsgoodtobefree Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 stores that mark up RSD item prices absurdly should get banned. how is that not worse than selling an item early? 213041284s, niblips, DecayToDeath and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billya Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 In Healy's case, it is an item that was going for 35-45, but when you factor in customs fees (she's in Canada), international shipping and currency exchange, the price isn't THAT insane.

weinerdog Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 stores that mark up RSD item prices absurdly should get banned. how is that not worse than selling an item early? Yep. It seems like it's getting worse. But why on earth do some bands/labels only release a fraction of what they know will meet demand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector53 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Marked at $70. this whole brand new debacle made me revisit the old thread for the Government Plates and man that was crazy/hilarious.
