I have one in my office on campus too. But it's just an LP60 so I don't use it often except for used records that look a little sketchy.

I listen a ton on my day off if yard work is caught up. We also do an album almost every night when we sit down at the dinner table. I probably average 2 LPs a day.

I mean I wouldn’t have my Beatles Mono or my Blonde or early press blue note stuff there but some David Lee Roth to torture the younguns with, you betcha.

I usually play them some Anais Mitchell and Lou Reed in my intro classes.

I don't know, spinning Hot For Teacher in this context might be a bit awkward.

Missing 5 records from my Oldies order, but it had the Goblin boxset so I don't care. Honestly would have been fine without some more of what did show up,

Mail backlog arrived!
I went 6 for 7 on my first Oldies order (the $5 stuff) - Didn't get my Josh Johnson.
I went 2 for 4 on my second Oldies order (the Nick Cave stuff) - Didn't get The Firstborn is Dead or Kicking Against the Pricks.
Reckon I'll give another week or so to see if any of that ships before chasing after them to turn my credit into a refund.
My Juno box looked like it sat in a puddle for a while - one of the three sleeves inside took a shitkicking, and the other two look pristine.
Looks like somebody punted @zomgbear's PIFsgiving box with a steel-toed boot - now it's Shades of Bottom Corner Ding. (it was packed well, so I consider this absolutely no fault to @zomgbear)
And my PIF from @Portland Sheriff got her much quicker than I expected - beating out other shipments from closer, and/or in-country!
Hilariously the biggest box at the least amount of record of them all.

I would not be able to post that pic, because… dead.
Dang! Sorry to hear that! I thought i used a VMP box too and those are usually pretty sturdy

No stress. I'm not overly upset about it. I can't listen to the sleeve anyway. Thanks again!
Just (finally) got the first of two Oldies.com orders. I think I ended up fairly lucky, going 12 for 14 (missing an Eels album and Billy Nomates). I got both copies of PJ Harvey's Dry demos (one for each of my kids), which surprises me a little.

Oh yes, and like many others here, my Oldies orders were rife with corner dings and a couple of seem splits. The worst of it all happened to the $5 stuff, so I can't be too upset.

my box had some big gaps in the corners but luckily had only minor corner dings. My we are busy bodies box was even worse but somehow made it! It was half way opened up haha.

I went 6/11 on my Oldies order. Biggest ones I'm bummed to miss on are the Beth Orton, Lee Konitz and Impressions of Pepper. No indication of a refund or store credit on the receipt. Very minimal corner dings, so I consider that a win with what I ended up getting.

WTF?? Why didn’t his manager tell him about poly inner sleeves? And finger/hand prints???? Those 45s can’t possibly be better than G+ after that treatment (but would still sell as “strong VG+“ by most sellers).
Hey, Cassius/Muhammad, tell me you don’t lurk on the N&G Definitive Audiophile forum without telling me you don’t lurk on the N&G Definitive Audiophile forum.
Yes, this is the way. I have a backlog of stuff I need to wash so I need to get on that.
