So we aren’t all getting Soundsmith Zephyrs for Christmas?

Let’s just make a hifi registry so every time he wants to spend money he just buys us all something instead.

Hmm, I might try that. I've been experimenting with puttng them in the gatefold or behind the outer but it's always wonky

Gonna ask here because it's the best place I can think of: what do you do with non-generic sleeves if you replace them with MoFi inners or some other inner swap? Like if you have a printed sleeve or a cardboard inner that's got some kind of design to it, do you just keep it in the record or...

Technically not spinning because my system is on the mend right now, but I got this record and have been listening to the digital version and it's absolutely killer:

This isn't far from what I do (minus the sitting) with my 16.5. For used records, my process is: - MoFi Super Record Wash first pass for ~30 seconds and the VPI brush with somewhat firm pressure - Vacuum for ~2 revolutions - AI #6 with scrubbing with VPI brush for ~30 seconds back and forth...

On a walk today, I saw that Codeine are playing basically within walking distance. Sold out or that would have been a fun Monday.

Swore off buying from UMG stores, but Bob Seger for $11 is worth the hassle, IMO

The Harold and Maude set for $15 is a great deal. The packaging for that one is really great.

Like I said, some exceptions, but you'd usually see stuff go up on discogs immediately and sell for 2x what it was listed for. Even for high demand stuff like the Evans mono, the average prices are pretty close to retail.

Gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised that for the most part, the "flipping" days of RSD seem to be over. Seems like nothing is fetching more than like $20 over retail on discogs, ebay, etc. Maybe a few exceptions but hopefully RSD returns to something for collectors.

My back hurts just thinking about moving that rack/gear

They do a few a year usually. Not sure if there's any specific timing to them but I think there was one in like October?

I think it was $40 something at mine

I had the Fleet Foxes in my hand yesterday and was like “naw it’s too much” and now I have FOMO because I didn’t get it

Nice. I just got the book a couple months ago, if they sold prints or posters that would be neat

Fun little aside before I take a nap with my cat for the next ten hours: the dude who is credited as the inventor of RSD was talking to the folks in front of me for a while and was chilling at the store I was at.

Prices for most things were insane to be fair. I was tempted by the Rollins box, the Ladytron reissue, some of the jazz detective stuff…but there records I got were $130 and that’s just wild

Yeah my store had lots of FF. Was tempted but I don’t really wanna drop a jillion dollars today

Managed to get my Evans and Lost in Translation. Also snagged the Octopus Project because the packaging looked awesome but might end up not keeping that one,
