But also, does demand factor into it? Like I'm almost positive nobody in that store has heard of Noga Erez, and I'm not sure how hard of a sell that's going to be.

I don't know the name. Some youngish kid with bushy hair.

Didn't give a breakdown, but it was what I was willing to accept to clear some record space
I DID manage to take one album back though, and it was the Noga Erez.

To you point on this one however is where it gets a bit disappointing:
That knocked $11 off the price they were going to give me.

The discogs LOWEST was $22.
So that means, they were offering a long shot from the median.

Again, the goal was to clear them as quickly as possible, but yeah I can't say I'm jacked given the sample.

Yeah if it's the one I'm thinking of he's the biggest lowballer there. Don't know his name but if he's the shorter bushy haired guy not the really tall one then yeah, I've walked away from a couple of his valuations.

That sounds like the guy. Kind of reminds me of one of the guys from Scott Pilgrim.
Yeah, it's fucked, but I'm only here at work once a week (which is near SB) and there's nothing I'm super attached to.

Like maybe that Kamasi Washington hurts, but honestly there's not many instances where I'm going to listen to a 5LP album my wife doesn't like. It's all good, that covers the two albums I'm gonna order from Tipitina's.

Those Kamasi's are so poorly pressed anyhow, they all sound like mud. I bailed on them too.
 
lol.
Kops has a copy of Funcrusher Plus going for $229. Not today satan.

(although tbf there's only one copy of the 2009 - which they're offering - on discogs for a cool $600).

I am really curious though how much they were selling Dr Octagon and Cannibal Ox for. I probably would've bit if they were under $150.

If anyone is looking for some Blue Note records, there are a lot in the used bins at Sonic Boom. Mostly Classics but some Tone Poets. I was in there today and I would say there were about 20 different titles.

There's always some fantastic jazz selection in the used bins...just depends on how much you're willing to spend and how much you're willing to dig and put up with other people digging through like a feeding trough.

Last time I was in I managed to pick up NM copies of Mingus "Oh Yeah", Talk Talk "Spirit of Eden" and a sealed Steve Earle "Ghosts of West Virginia" for decent prices.

Their used section is the best in town IMO, it just takes quite a bit of time and patience to go through it all.
 
Hey y'all. I am trying to get a record from a record shop in Toronto called VOLVER - in the Dundas West & Sorauren neighborhood of Toronto.

Is anyone around or semi near this region? They will do appt/pick up only. Please let me know if so <3

Hey man yeah I'm pretty close by, I've bought from that guy once before. Be a little careful because his grading is not to be trusted. But I can help you out if you need it.

I have two buddies that swear Volver is the best thing ever when it comes to buying/selling used vinyl.
 
Anyone know of any record stores that have their list of RSD items in advance?
I'm looking for English Beat's "Special Beat Service" and last time I went to Rotate This for a RSD drop they looked at me sideways (It was Tricky and I was able to find it elsewhere).

My old local when we used to live in KW put up a list as they found out what they were getting in, so far they're not listing the Beat (Black Friday 2024).
