Family Friendly Rap God Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I have been told this by multiple people on the thread today while searching for purchases that I missed out on - so why can other people on the board do it and I can't? I only think it's fair that I do the same so I can afford other things that people are selling way above cost on the board. It's not like I am asking for ebay prices. Becasue the point of this board is for it to be a refuge from EBay price gouging. I see no problem making a couple bucks but $45? C'mon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimrawk Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I got a friend of mine a copy of Ghostbuster 10". A store here yesterday only allowed one person per RSD title as they got very limited supplies and the only store that got copies of RSd stuff. Bought none for myself.

C'mon I feel sorry for the public ridicule, but this board's culture and ethics are pretty well-known to most posters. I guess people are free to ask whatever price they want and then we're free to poo-poo it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickchowz Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Was able to snag a Childish Gambino today, man is it some beautiful packaging, haven't played it yet. Was told there was only 1 Jay-Z/Linkin Park LP available and it was way gone by the time I got there If anyone was able to pick up and extra I'd be very happy to have it cost +!!

castaway Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 RSD started off terribly for me. Waited in line at Vacation Vinyl for an hour and a half and right before I was about to go in I had to leave and take my girlfriend to work. Then I went to Amoeba and ended up waiting in line for 4 fucking hours. Luckily there were still a few things I wanted but Amoeba's prices are ridiculous. I ended up just splurging a lot of non-RSD stuff at Backside records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obliriovrons Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I don't know if anyone mentioned it but apparently the Nirvana 7" was by far the most requested thing released today. My store only had one copy, which was kind of ridiculous, but I fortunately managed to snag it for a friend who was really wanting it (and they had it at $10 rather than some of the more ridiculous prices we were seeing).

They had a few actually but it was pretty misleading. Three boxes said "Record Store Day Exclusives" on them but only one of them actually had RSD exclusives in it haha. The other two were just various new releases. I grabbed the Set Your Goals Reset Reissue though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a ton of these leftover in my local stores, at around 10 as well. Didn't see hardly anyone after it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One store I went into at about 1pm had at least 20 copies of the Nirvana 7" maybe more. I wished there were that many SDRE 7's. I can't believe how much people are paying for those on ebay.

theob Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 All I really wanted this year is SDRE and Nirvana...and maybe the Soundgarden. Hopefully I can find these online. The Revelation Records releases are usually easy to find online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wavy Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I'm a bit late the party (my RSD was yesterday because Australia) but I figured I'd post up my experience. This year was my first RSD, and even though I didn't score the releases I really wanted I still had fun. Things weren't crazy busy at my local stores, I rocked up half an hour before opening and was pretty much at the front of the queue at both. The first store did the menu thing which made it pretty easy. The second store let people in in batches of 20, then those 20 crushed around the small the table with the crates of RSD releases. It wasn't too bad I guess, but I much prefer the menu format than a free-for-all. In the end I picked up: Sky Ferreira - Night Time, My Time picture disc London Grammar - Hey Now remixes Anamanguchi - Scott Pilgrim OST Camera Obscura - 4AD Session Opeth - Watershed (didn't arrive on time, on order for next week) Edit: obligatory photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanyrecords Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Did anyone even see the Xiu Xiu - Best Of it was the one sole thing I was looking around for. I snagged it I'll post my haul when I get home later. Hope everyone else had as successful RSDs as I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 If anyone is looking for Xiu Xiu - Best of for cost+shipping I've got one that is pending until tomorrow evening when they decide whether or not they want it. PM me first come first serve (unless it's a double digit poster vs a forum regular) if the pending deal doesn't go through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futures Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 It's kind of smokey brown-ish, I'd say? Oh true! Thanks for posting. I always wonder why I never see records on clear black vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to figure out if I should try to get the boxset or the 12" Someone mentioned the 12" not having all of the songs on it. Seems like the 7" boxset is the complete compilation.
