Three copies on discogs right now: https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/4072078?ev=rb
-
This arrived today. I have a scratchy copy on the other label design. It was time to upgrade to something less noisy.

Isn't there oil in baby wipes? If there is it will harden over time making your records sound worse than they look.
-
This week I've only had this: Flipside's nice too. More on the way, so lots to look forward to.
-
These days I buy very little on ebay but usually use hammersnipe.com. Mostly by habit. Three free snipes each week, which is enough for me these days.

I think this one is cool. That name ... Jad in company sleeve is pretty hard on the eye. And this is a nice design.

What I've learned from this thread is that people actually believe their phones and tablets can be expected to handle as much as a desktop computer. They can not. There's a reason why desktops and laptops are still for sale, and it has nothing to do with the size of the keyboard This goes double for iWhatevers as Apple has decided to stop supporting certain older technologies.

Are you sure you didn't connect an MC needle to a MM phono stage? That would explain the low volume.

I'm still hoping the rare gospel album I won in october will turn up eventually.
-
Last four to arrive: Waiting for more, some are late already. Hopefully delayed by christmas, not lost.

I think paypal changed their routines a while back. I suddenly got several address requests from sellers after sending payment. It took me a while to notice that paypal had stopped adding shipping address by default.

Last three through the mailbox: (70s, decent flip too) (R&B) (Classic namedropping soul )

It's the size and weight. Very easy to put in any kind of bag when going to record fairs.
-
I bought one of these (green version) at Benetton last year. I believe that this proves vinyl is back.

Not sure how UK customs works, but where I live you can correct inflated prices by providing a paypal receipt to the customs department. Naturally, you'll have to do this before collecting the package.

Are There B Sides You Still Haven't Played?
Larsc replied to Funky 4 Corners's topic in Look At Your Box
I started collecting without any attachment to any kind of scene so I've always played both sides of records to see what side is the best. And I always get a little annoyed when sellers post audio of only one side of a record -
I've heard so many terrifying stories about ebays global shipping program that I've never considered bidding on auctions from sellers who use it. Opting out is a good idea.

Howard, thanks for clearing up some of the questions we had. I'm trying to clean up the listings of Chanson and everyone related to the label on discogs.com and you've made it a lot easier. Currently your profile is mixed with that of a jazz guitarist: https://www.discogs.com/artist/282559-Howard-Collins I'm splitting them up, but just to be sure; You haven't had a jazz career, have you? (If you don't know discogs.com it's a database that attempts to become a wikipedia for records. The site is built by contributions of volunteers.)

Oh, that makes some connections even more fascinating. He used both names on some later releases on connowil and skippyophonic. If you get the chance I'd like to find out who "M. Harrison" was. That name is credited on several songs. And who was Charlie Chuck on Chanson?

Last three through the door:
-
Looks like he's been ok for two years and then suddenly stopped shipping out records. Could be medical reasons or something like that.
-
Makes me wonder what expedits were made of? Asbestos?
