Discogs - Help, Tricks, Secrets And Tips

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but I feel bad for anyone that put a lot of time into filmogs or posterogs.

it’s not the same thing but there is a really cool site for logging all the films you’ve watched and reviewing/rating them called Letterboxd. You can make all kinds of lists and it’s really fun to use with your friends. Beautiful user interface, too.
 
This may have been answered before but, why does discogs charge the taxes from us? Is discogs taking their fees (discogs fee+taxes) and then we have to pay PayPal too? Seems a bit excessive.

Discogs and paypal are separate entities. Both perform a service for the seller in the transaction, and take their cuts out of the seller's end.

As for taxes, I assume discogs collects and submits any taxes on top of the purchase price, pursuant to the law of the jurisdiction where the buyer's delivery address is located. So the buyer should be responsible for those.

Question: This entry for The Clash has a Canadian 45 as the bonus single, and it should really be a US single.

OK to delete those pics and update the description? I can't imagine a US copy of this album came with a Canadian 7".

I would say you need to prove it in some way. As much as I agree with you you need backup.
 
Since it's in the title I figured I'd throw this trick on here...

Releases that are blocked for sale also have the collection stats blocked, but there is a way around this.


https://www.discogs.com/release/stats/ followed by the release number will let you see the number of owners/wish list.


So to see Various - Lost Highway

you would use the url - https://www.discogs.com/release/stats/6929525


It's not the most useful thing, but sometimes it's good to know how many people own that version of a sub when you put in a merge or ask a question/need a response.

My, god! It's a tip, a trick, possibly even a secret!
 
OMG that guy is the worst. I so wish there was a “block user reviews” function in Discogs.
LOL I genuinely enjoy that guy and his “Ultimate Warrior” bit his comments usually makes me laugh. I also like how people take his bonkers comments seriously. It’s a bit trollish but it’s usually so nuts they are obviously a bit.

Yeah his schtick can get tired but that site needs some levity tbh
 
The seller does but how do i change to pay pal credit before purchase?
When you checkout, select "Checkout using Paypal." You should then be taken to Paypal, where you will see the payment methods you have added to your account, i.e. cash balance, credit cards, bank accounts and Paypal credit. Just make sure the button for Paypal credit is checked before you confirm payment.
