Agreed – just heard Blur's "Tender" at a local coffee shop, told the guy I hadn't heard the song in years and he said, "Wow, I don't even like Blur. I just told the AI to put a playlist together." :LOL:
Interesting...I did check this morning and the PayPal transaction says "Seller Protection: Eligible", but I don't really know what I'm doing. It doesn't seem like I can initiate anything. Does it depend on the buyer starting a claim?
@MikeH – I got the record back! The packaging was similar to mine, but not the same. Corners were all dented or creased w/ a top seam split inside a shitty mailer. Pretty sure I got the ol' switcheroo. I'm leaning towards sending the refund and calling it a loss. It's not worth losing a 100%...
@ThePakoBuelna I agree! It shouldn't be on me if they received my package in Chicago and then from there shipped it to San Diego, BUT how can I dispute this with Discogs? I looked and didn't see much info on disputes in general on their site.
@Vinyl&Kicks86 Interesting...so would be reasonable to think they secured a mint copy (mine) in exchange for a damaged/warped one they may have received from that batch?
@MikeH No pictures. We'll see when I get it back (delivery date says Friday). My guess is a damaged one will be inside a new mailer rather than the one that got "whooped". Record was Chance the Rapper's Acid Rap.
@djdavedk I do on the high priced stuff ($200+), but I've only sold 20-25 records combined on Discogs/eBay and never had a problem w/ a buyer until now. Law of averages suggests it was bound to happen eventually. Lesson learned the hard way. This record was sold for $125.
@Melt Face Molly Drop yes, but they've purchased a ton of records over the past year. 75 in the past 3 months, 161 over 6 months, 217 over 12 months. Another loophole in Discogs – you can't alter your feedback for a buyer after the fact. I left positive feedback for paying quickly, but can't...
