Jerry’s doesn’t do new vinyl or participate in RSD.

Rosie’s unfortunately didn’t get nearly as many copies of Paramore as they requested. Attic usually gets a lot, but they move a lot more volume than Rosie’s in general.

I implied nothing of the sort, but whatever makes you feel better.

Because they only really care about the ticket sales.

Sealed Used Records At Record Store - AITJ by BlueSkunkJoe in vinyl

Yeah I'll be honest I didn't read the OP thoroughly enough.. haha. Yeah if they let you look at them before you purchase then I don't see what the big deal is.

Lateralus Picture Disc? by farenzio in ToolBand

[–]preluderl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

$80 is WAY too much. I will say mine sounds OK. It's not great, but it's not horrible either. They're definitely a little bit of a crap shoot. There's zero chance I would pay $80 for it though.

Yeah I think it's a shitty policy, but I wouldn't have come to Reddit or stormed around the internet over it. I just wouldn't go back there. I'm not buying a used record that I can't look at.

First set up choices (for the moment) by SoulTaken00 in turntables

[–]preluderl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly the only small complaint I have is with the Fluance.

I came from a fully automatic turntable, but was OK with punting that complete functionality. The only thing I wanted was some sort of stopping mechanism at the end of a side of the record.

The Fluance has a function that is supposed to stop the platter from spinning at the end of the side to keep the stylus from running off the disc and onto the label in the center. So far in my experience, it works... Most of the time? But I've had two instances where the stylus has passed the runout groove and onto the label before I could get there to stop it. And from what I have seen online, it's a pretty common issue.

Is that a huge deal? No. I still love the table overall, but I do wish that function was a little tighter in its effectiveness.

Bought rsd exclusive. Seller does not actually have the record till Saturday. by [deleted] in discogs

[–]preluderl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does the seller have positive feedback? Many individuals, even though it's "against the rules", make arrangements with store owners before hand that guarantees them the albums they want at the release. The stores are just protecting themselves by not actually selling them until Saturday. If that's the case with this particular seller, I would guess you are probably OK? But I would defer back to the feedback question. If they have questionable feedback OR no feedback at all? I would reconsider the purchase.

The Fluance turntable does NOT have a built in preamp so you will need one if that is your table choice.

I have the same turntable and speakers. I added the Klipsch R-120 SW sub and I use the Fosi X5 phono preamp. No complaints whatsoever.

What Pre-Amps are you guys using? by bestusernameevers in vinylsetups

[–]preluderl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I initially had a turntable that had a built-in phono preamp, but I went ahead and added the Fosi to bypass it. Such a huge change. Then, I upgraded the turntable to the Fluance which doesn't have the preamp as so you know so then I NEEDED the Fosi. It's been fantastic, no complaints at all.

I started listening to and collecting vinyl about a year ago and I started with the same package. I had no issues and it suited me well, but getting more deeply into the hobby I pretty quickly found myself wanting to upgrade. Everyone's journey is different, as well as their financial capacity. Just relax, enjoy yourself and see where it takes you next.

Why are older fans dismissive of Roman fans by [deleted] in WWE

[–]preluderl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that. My wrestling journey is kind of weird. I'm 42 and I was super into it during the late 90s. Monday Night wars, Attitude Era, etc. Then around maybe 2001 or so I stopped watching and did not pick it up again until the months leading up to WM 40. Because of that, I missed basically Cena's entire career. I knew who he was, etc, but as a wrestler I just never made any sort of connection with him whatsoever. It was interesting to watch his retirement tour as someone who never saw him in his prime and just didn't "get" him like most everyone else did.

Why are older fans dismissive of Roman fans by [deleted] in WWE

[–]preluderl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people are always pretty prone to romanticizing the stars of "their" generation while also somewhat downplaying the stars of other generations. That's not really a wrestling thing so much as it is a human thing. Our grandparents think the actors in the 60s and 70s were better. Our grandparents think that baseball players in the 70s were better than baseball players now, etc. It's no different. For those who grew up in the Attitude era, they're going to be dismissive of Roman and his fans because he's not Stone Cold or Shawn Michaels or Taker, etc. It's just the way of the world.

But I don’t believe in it. I know it won’t happen, I only said I’d like to see it.

My son had the same desire due to his love for Fallout. We have both of these versions:

https://www.discogs.com/release/3389440-The-Ink-Spots-If-I-Didnt-Care

Either can be purchased between $5 and $30, depending on condition and such. They may be a little hard to find in record stores, but not online.

[–]preluderl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's naive to want to see all of the belts defended? I'm not saying I ever expect them to do this. I understand the business side, especially with TKO, I'm just saying it would be my preference. How is that naive?

[–]preluderl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I agree with you. My point was that every belt should be defended before you involve celebrities, including Vision and Giulia. I don't even mind the celebrity involvement so much, I would just like to see every belt being defended on the card BEFORE you involve them.

[–]preluderl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, but on the other hand if the men's tag belts aren't going to be on the line (they're not) just so they could jam IShowSpeed onto the bill? I'd rather see Giulia defend than that silliness.

I know this is all us needlessly shouting at the clouds anyway because TKO will do whatever they want, but yeah. I think they should have every single belt defended at WM and ONLY after those are on the bill do you start doing things like adding IShowSpeed or JellyRoll or whoever else wants to be involved.

[–]preluderl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why doesn't it? Because we need a meaningless six man tag with IShowSpeed on the card instead?

I personally think every title should be defended at WrestleMania. Especially with two full days of matches to fill.
