radiatorhums Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 1234 said RSD leftovers were going up at 9pm PST, they actually didn't start trickling up on their site until around 11:30pm PST, people who stuck it out seemed to get some stuff. Thanks for the info! That sounds really frustrating! tvham 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Long time lurker, first time poster here. I received a lead on one of the unclaimed secret McCartney Sweet Thrash RSD promos. This was at the top of my want list. Before I hop in my car and drive a couple hundred miles to claim my grail, I figured it was worth a shot to enlist the help of the board first. I'm offering a $50 "reward" (or let me know a record you're looking for) plus gas money and postage if you can send me the record. Reply with your location and if you are nearby I will tell you which store it is at and we can go from there. Thanks for your help! The location under my post count is true, no sense in being redundant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvham Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Thanks for the info! That sounds really frustrating! Actually, what was more frustrating was placing orders with Dimple last night to only have them cancelled this morning. I'm resigned to the fact that I won't get Foo Fighters but am hoping that Bullmoose will come through tomorrow morning with the other couple of albums I missed out on (Whiplash, Polyvinyl, U2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
got PTSD from RSD Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Why don't you give us some sort of clue where the location is? It could be anywhere in the country. Northeast, Midwest, South, West? Sure, no problem. It is sort of East-Northeast. Just so people outside of that area don't waste their time replying. Thanks again.

In the end, Bullmoose did come through on everything I wanted. Can't say enough good things about them. tvham 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than my offer is worth, I'm afraid. I don't know a good way to search members of the board by location and a lot of people don't even list their location.

I don't know a good way to search members of the board by location and a lot of people don't even list their location. Why don't you just post the state? Especially if your "East/Northeast" hint is correct, I can't think of any answer that would narrow it down that much just by knowing the state. Even smaller Northeast states like Rhode Island and Vermont have many, many record stores. vinyl addict 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even smaller Northeast states like Rhode Island and Vermont have many, many record stores. Sure, no problem. The store is in Pennsylvania. I wasn't trying to give hints. Just hoping that a board member responds who is near enough to the store to go grab the record without too much inconvenience for them. But your point is taken. It is useless to have tons of people responding who are nowhere near the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector53 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Yeah good luck trying to see if anyone will do that for just $50. You have seen the eBay prices ATM for that right? That thing kind of nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamalatapes Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 And I thought $42 at my store was a lot for it. that's some bs, RSD has a list of recommended pricing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuckinandsuckinandtouchin Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I picked up the Stooges, Grandmaster Flash/Stiff Little Fingers at Mike Watt, which is all I really wanted to pay for. Passed on Social Distortion's $30 price tag because it's not even that good of an album. How is that Stooges album?? I saw it in person, but passed. Live Stooges are great plus it comes with that enormous poster. hmmmI don't agree about Social D (see what I did there?!), but the price is a bit high for that for sure.

That thing kind oI' I'm not asking anyone to pay eBay prices for it. I'm just asking someone who lives close by to walk in to a record store, pick up a record, and mail it to me. Probably the easiest $50 they will ever make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live Stooges are great plus it comes with that enormous poster. hmmm I don't agree about Social D (see what I did there?!), but the price is a bit high for that for sure. Stooges is pretty cool. It sounds like it was recorded from the audience, which is fine I guess, but not what I expected. The color is very nice: it was described as black/white "spatter" but it's actually a black/white/gray smash. Pretty heavy, too. Oh, and there's a pretty cool segment before the music starts of some people on what I assume is the bus to the show talking about Iggy Pop and his stage antics. And the poster is definitely something I'd pay like $10 for, which makes me feel a little better about spending $25 on a single LP. I didn't mean to say Social Distortion wasn't a good album - but I'd pay $30 for a new press of Mommy's Little Monster before the self-titled. Nice rhyme though.

Bladewillisisdead Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I just clicked through what felt like 100 pages on the mobile site to get to the most recent page. I only caught glimpses of the first post on each page... Is stlben really up to 7 copies of that April Fools Dads lathe? I know he had 3 but Jesus fucking Christ. I don't normally give a shit about this kind of thing, but unless his goal is to own all 100 copies could someone set him on fire? thesewoodenideas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if you have a couple hours to spend tomorrow on that mission for me I will cover your gas, plus $50, plus I will throw in that Live Stooges record so that you can check it out for yourself.

Or... you could cover my gas, I'll send you the record, and bring my copy of the Stooges so bhoussock and I can listen to it without you having to send him one! Might be a few more bucks for gas though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where about in PA or at least near? I wouldn't mind helping at all as long as it's not TOO far away. Although I've been going on small, solo 2 hour trips lately to shops I've never been to (Double Decker, Record Connection) and have had a great time!
