  1. Just picked up a Lydia - This December test press from bad timing.

    I missed out on the Acceptance - Phantoms test press. Unfortunately the page did not refresh at 2 pm like I had hoped. A minute later it was sold out.
     
  3. I tried to snag that too but I wanted Lydia much much more.

    Kind of a random question: I use those poly sleeves on my records but on the gatefold/double LP records it is definitely a tighter fit. Does anyone know if this can potentially cause damage to the records?

    This happens a lot on double records for me. I bought a pack of plastic outer sleeves and started storing the records outside the gatefold jacket itself.

  8. I started doing this with my whole collection after a hectic year of moving around a few times. Prevented a lot of jacket tears from happening during transit. It's also my preferred method for shipping records that aren't shrink wrapped.

    I actually got the idea after someone shipped me some used records that way. Seems much safer all around!

    Sad moment for me today. Had to box up my records and I don’t know when the next time will be that I’ll get a chance to listen to them.

    I got out of collecting for a while in 2016, and my collection slowly dwindled down to about 15 records until the start of this year, and now I have jumped from 15 to about 165. Oops.

  14. I did the same thing, I started collecting when I was 15. My girlfriend at the time viewed vinyl as a waste of money so she eventually talked me into selling most of my collection. Started collecting again about a year ago, went from 40 at the start to 308 now.

    No regrets.

    Nice! Any big additions to your collection that you are proud of?

    Good god, you two are making me feel way better about how much money I have spent. Do you have gems you have added to the collection?

    Got quite a few but the two most expensive ones are Frank Oceans Blonde and an OG pressing of Alice In Chains tripod

    I got motivated enough to start organizing some of my collection on Discogs. I have it sorted into non-signed and signed for the folders, and let me know if you want to ask about something to see if I am looking to sell/trade

    Check out MDUKE771's music collection on Discogs

    Outcast Tape Infirmary

    Other than looking super cool, what does that do?
     
  24. It’s denser than a metal or plastic plate so you get insane speed consistency for perfect sound
