thedillon Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Couldn't find a thread on this so I made one... has anyone bought vinyl from best buy before? I got some best buy giftcards for the holiday and I was looking through their vinyl section online and found some good stuff for decent prices and free shipping. What kind of experiences have people had with buying vinyl from best buy? Just want to make sure they're not gonna show up shipped between two pieces of cardboard or something like that.. *cough* HASTINGS *cough* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PC Music Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I've bought one before. I can't remember exactly how it was packaged, but I didn't have any problems. Have another record from them on the way right now, actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

breathingliquid Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 One time I called my local Best Buy to see if they had a certain record because they do have a small vinyl section, and the person who answered the phone insisted they didn't carry vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
searos Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I bought the new Shiny Toy Guns album and it came in pretty terrible condition. It was in just a bubbler and the think had dings on all corners. Played fine though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanRees Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 i bought both katy perry albums from them like a year and a half ago and they came packaged like a tank. a big box w/ the records inside of a record mailer wrapped in bubble wrap.

taylo234 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Yeah I've ordered multiple records from them, absolutely no problems at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shenanigans Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Only experience I have from them was ordering a record online that was backordered for 2 months and then I got a refund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC Music Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Only experience I have from them was ordering a record online that was backordered for 2 months and then I got a refund. -- That's happened to me twice. The second time they gave me two different coupons for 10 dollars off. I'm pretty sure it was an error and they only meant to send 1 but I'll take it. I used one of them to get The Fame Monster for 4 dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFP Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 There is a main North Charleston location that used to stock some in their actual store. Most notably that double sawblade album from Underoath. Wish I would have picked it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeeMoreGlass Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I just looked... They have Brand New - Daisy for 14 bucks and Jimmy Eat World's Bleed American for 32 bucks...and I am guessing that is the 3XLP reissue might have to pull the trigger on JEW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youmightbewrong Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Cuz it's BRAND NEW duhhh. It's gotta be super rare. I meant to say the black reissue of YFW, which I thought was still available but apparently it's not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youmightbewrong Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Oh good, I'm not losing it. People are paying stupid $ on ebay for Daisy which is still available via retailers like this. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-DAISY-Vinyl-LP-deja-entendu-the-devil-and-god-your-favorite-weapon-NM-/230901932469?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item35c2d3e1b5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
