None of it makes any sense to me. And he didn't have any notes about Anderson .Paak being a pre-order, so now is there some guy who paid $80 waiting 4 weeks or more for his record?

Indubitably. To be fair though, anyone paying that much for an obvious flip likely was spurned by missing the item earlier and/or knows details like that about that product. Still hoping for a Flipping For Dummies by Halo.2 book someday. Would be utterly fascinating. YouTwo and WAXXX 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, instead of waiting to see if more copies become available their first instinct is to get the first copy that shows up on Discogs. lethalenforcer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas³ Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 My favorite was when he tried to flip some records on reddit and Matt went on a huge rant on him there and he deleted his account. WAXXX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boops_popmarket Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 He is either 13 years old or he has a personality disorder. Panic buying records and then listing and tweaking those listings seems to give his life a purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skacel Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 I hope they don't get rid of crate. The international membership is $44 / month. I don't go for the AOTM but have bought some of the store exclusives and curated titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had Venice up for $80 the same day it sold out) Man I hate that little prick. I really wanted that Paak... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithyap Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Store is open. They have a bundle for Bon Iver + 12" single (color unsure) for $27. The shipping has to be the cheapest I've seen so far. $8 for international. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Nothing really appealing to me in the store this month. I already have Bon Iver and Temple of the Dog pre-ordered. lethalenforcer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksuwdboots Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 On the VMP forums one of their staff members just said "Any changes made to the Crate won't effect current Crate members - we'll grandfather you in" hammertime and lethalenforcer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freedumb Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I feel like there's a reason they added the crate option and they would be silly to to get rid of it. But if that's what they're saying, I guess that's what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
