Is this the app? If it is, I really don't know as I don't use it. Even on my phone I just use the website.

No this is the site. You’ll also find that in addition to having the Sleeve condition column, it also allows you to sort by the date the item was added. Although it doesn’t have the Min/Median/Max like the other one
 
Anyone else wish that instead of screwing around with shipping they added a way to put pictures up of the album your selling? Like an Ebay page?

Not that I want to take a ton of pictures but it would be nice to have the ability on the site as opposed to sending someone a drive link when they ask for pictures.

It would be nice as long as it's not required like eBay. It's so much easier to list on Discogs because you don't have to take a bunch of pictures.

I agree. I would use it for the higher priced stuff and then when asked. Seems to me that it would be an easy thing to implement as they already have a picture system for releases.
 
I don't understand the new shipping policy stuff. I thought I had if all changed but it just charged an order $5.50 instead of $5 that I have it set at. Do I have to have "All Media" checked now?
 
Apologies if this has already been addressed in the previous 32 pages...

I want to list maybe a hundred LPs for sale on Discogs, and am wondering if anyone here has found a bar code scanner that interfaces well with the Discogs site for faster and more accurate listings? I use an iPhone and Mac Mini, if that makes any difference.

Thanks!

In my past experience bar code scanners aren't very accurate because multiple version could have the same sleeve and barcode.

You should be able to scan barcodes with your iPhone if you have the app downloaded. The only issue is, as @dbarila stated, sometimes the barcode will pull up multiple copies and you may have to still check it against the runout matrix Or other Identifiers. It can be helpful in narrowing things down a bit.
 
I had an order placed over the weekend that I shipped but looking back it seems kind of suspicious. The buyer asked for some pictures (the email was kind of broken English but hey, I'm not going to judge). They paid via PayPal and I shipped it out. The address seems to be in a business Park which is a bit strange. Now also on another message board that I listed the record on months ago I had message from a new user that almost seems like it came from a bit asking about the same record. Think it's anything to worry about?

It could just be the same person looking really hard for that record. I've definitely thrown out a few spare lines when I was trying to lock down something hard to get.
