So the 8000 milestone total collection catalogued reached - and still nowhere near completion on the cds - I think I need a support thread to avoid buying in the new year - is there one around still?
Gonna try and not buy anything till the Easter bank holiday … as out of room and cash !

I can say for myself it's hard to do feedback constantly so we do it when it gets to 80-100.
I've never heard of people getting upset but will try to step it up.

Anyone having trouble staying signed into Discogs? I'm finding I have to sign in once or twice a day now, vs. previously it kept me signed in on my device. Annoying.

Staying signed in, but having to accept cookies on every page from my phone (using internet, not app)

Weird one - I sold a record a few days ago and received payment via PayPal but the status still shows as Invoice Sent. I messaged the buyer tracking info...do I need to investigate it any further or just let it ride?

I recently had one order like that. Only one so far but I check all the invoice orders now to make sure.
Ended up upgrading them to priority mail because of the delay and toyed with the idea of asking discogs to reimburse, however that's a lost cause because when they reply in a month I will have forgotten why I emailed.

yeah, I messaged the buyer and they were fine with things as long as the record arrives!I recently had one order like that. Only one so far but I check all the invoice orders now to make sure.

Hi guys and Merry Christmas!
Discogs/online purchase question. I put an order in a week ago for a record (and paid) from abroad and the seller has now messaged asking if I want to upgrade to tracked to be protected, stating I am responsible if it goes missing. Surely it's the seller's responsibility for shipping?
I responded by saying as much and their response was "Hope you Keep being happy in case of loss
?".
The issue is that I have already paid €8.50 for postage, plus €8.85 in VAT, on top of the price of the record. It wasn't an overly expensive record at all and with the additional €6 im fast approaching paid more in fees than I am for the record.
Any thoughts?

Responsibility is with the seller and if paid though PayPal you have a claim through that if it doesn’t arrive in a reasonable timeframe.

Cheers Joe, exactly the kind of thing I was hoping to hear. Phew!
Yeah I don’t think there’s a legal basis that I’m fully aware of but it’s generally accepted practice and PayPal are usually good with that, especially as the seller tends to be protected by them too in such no fault losses.

Perfect. I really dont expect there to be an issue to be honest, but best to have myself covered just in case.
If a seller gives you bogus policies that can’t be enforced if they accept your payment via PayPal, I just ignore it and make a mental note that I may get an expletive laden message if/when I need to exercise any buyer protections via PayPal.
