I ordered from UO yesterday, and it got cancelled pretty quickly. Support said it was something about a hold, but I'm wondering whether it's just that the PVRIS record I tried to order wasn't actually in stock and they cancelled the whole thing because of that.

 

On the topic of other weird order things:

I finally heard back from 6131, and they said that that the Rat Tally release was cancelled (which is a disappointment - that record is really good). They didn't say anything about the rest of my order yet, but I guess it's good to have some communication on that front.

Midtown Comics also wrote back saying that the What's The Furthest Place From Here issue with the Julien Baker/Sharon Van Etten 7" is now scheduled for 1/24/24. I'm skeptical that this is actually happening at this point, given that I placed my order on 2/25/22. Fingers crossed, though.

 

I got a letter today basically telling me that SCP is officially bankrupt and there are currently no assets to get a refund from. Which, I think was kind of known. But I guess my NSP vinyl preorder got me on a list to get the letter from the bankruptcy court.

The band said they’d make things right, so I’m not concerned, but it sucks for them and all the other artists stuck in the same situation.

 

Ordered the Paramore S/T reissue from UO and it’s the first time in a while they didn’t pack it like it was the most fragile thing on earth. They just threw it in a big box with no padding so it has a huge ding on the corner. The packaging for that place remains wildly inconsistent.

 

Thrice is gone? That's the only one I wanted

 

Not gonna lie. The first part of this post scared the crap out of me. Thought I missed a really big and sad announcement.

 

Finally caved on a UO sale. Ordered the following
HGB(regular priced)
The Used S/T
Andrew Mc Mahon
Both YC records
BSB Xmas

 

hah sorry should've said TAITA I think it was

 

Man... that Newbury sale almost got me.

I get a great amount of joy doing my one- to two-times a day check of this thread, because it's the best place to find this stuff. But I feel my wallet wincing every time haha.

 

Haha. No worries. I also had forgotten which thread I clicked into when I read that. Would've been more obvious had I not.

 

Some recent additions

 

Every time we get these UO/Newbury sales I end up loading up my cart and then convincing myself I don't need anything and emptying my cart again. They'll get me one of these days, though.

 

Nice color scheme

 

Is that a OMT boot, or your own cover printing?

 

It’s just the cover, fingers crossed we get this pressing eventually.

 

Seeing how much signed copies of OMT are going for has me really thinking about selling.

 

Oh yeah!

 

That's the only part of my order that hasn't shipped yet...I may have missed it too!

 

Their album rules: COSMIC JOKE - s/t LP – Triple B Records

 

in early 2022, i "pre-ordered" What's the Furthest Place from Here #6, 2nd pressing (it had a summer 2022 release date). completely forgot about it over time, but then it finally showed up last summer, lol.

knowing the absurdly long waits, i'm tempted to put in an oder for issue 7 with Baker/Van Etten.

 

Is anyone else getting logged out of the Discogs app daily? Maybe there’s a setting that changed or something but it’s been happening since the new year started I think

 

Question: How do you organize split EPs in your collection, like where do they go for you? The band listed first?

 

i sort it by the band that i like more.

 

can't speak about this on the iOS front, but on Android this happened to me for about a month or so near the end of last year. it seems they patched it with an update in late November/early December, but it's possible it broke again or that it was never fixed for some users.
