benchwarmer Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 one word of advice: START A RECORD LIST NOW! you can see examples in just about everyone's signature as how they are laid out. start now before you have too many and it takes you a week to make it!

music4ever Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 Yea, someone sent me a PM advising me to do that. Doing that as we speak. How do I link it into my vinylcollective profile? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benchwarmer Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 if you're doing it on google docs, you can "publish" it and just post the link, or you can set up an account at a place like deadformat.net and post that link. make sure you keep it updated whenever you get anything new!

pibbals Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Lol thanks. In your face whoever said hot topic is a bad place to start! lol In my experience, Hot Topic is a pretty horrible place to start. It's mostly just warped picture discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, but you see if you stay away from those and let everyone else take those then you're good to go! Every single one of my records that I've got save 3: Maylene, Manic 7", and Underoath: They're Only Chasing Safet (on the way), came from hot topic. I think everyone can agree hot topic is a pretty scene store, but when it comes to music, you can find some pretty good stuff in there.

pibbals Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Depends on which store, with hot topic it really varies. And "scene" is a really retarded way to describe things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

controlthebleeding Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 They are right.. There is nothing good about hot topic being your place to buy vinyl. You'll soon realize that. This place is a great place to know about new music and you'll find a majority of new labels and mailorder places to buy music from rather than going to hot topic. I love this place and the people in it...or that are apart of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xlovecolouredx Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 for me, the biggest obstacle of collecting is import tax.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partysmasher Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Like I said, not necessarily looking to collect because something is rare, simply because i enjoy the music. Yea, I got a lot of my records from hot topic, but it's quite literally the only place in the area that even sells records. I spent a good month just looking for a player. As for bein broke, it'll be worth it I'm sure lol. Thanks for the welcoming guys! I thought that, too. But then i got sucked in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flood Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Where are you from?Maybe we can help you find a local record store you don't know about. I'm from northern Virginia. I'd really appreciate any help I can get. BTW amazing sig. By far one of my favorite bands, I had no idea HTSAF was on vinyl. I'll have to add that to my want list theres a really awesome place in richmond, i forget the name... but it was a pretty big place in the center of town Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deville Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 for me, the biggest obstacle of collecting is import tax.... my biggest obstacle is dollar to euro exchange rate plus air mail costs. damn all you British bands that it's still think its 1996 and keep putting out fat style punk and sucking up my money.
