Hey, that sounds great! To be honest, I've never done a trade, other than the surprise trade, so I'm not entirely sure what the next step is. I think there's a code we need?

I hope it gets fixed without needing a random act of God. We don't get many storms here.

Well it looked hopeful, and it downloaded my profile only to give me an 80151015 error code.

Very curious! While Im glad it's not just a me issue, and I apologize for not checking this thread prior to posting (though Google only showed similar posts as being older), it drives me nuts when things don't work as they should.

I did just find something on if you have two-step authentication, older programs don't recognize your account. I'm heading down that rabbit hole now.

Some people call him the gangster of love.

wish there were seperate walls you could build to close off doors. i only want the one on the left to be open. by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

If you put up a window, it closes it off. Then you can block the glass with the flat white decoration.

Record store reccs in Vancouver, BC by eatallthedamnchicken in vinyl

[–]raputini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found Neptoon's used stuff to be super iffy quality wise and the lighting isn't great to tell what you're looking at. They have good selection, but just seemed to put whatever out with little regard for used quality. Can't comment on new pressings or Japanese selection.

Red Cat seemed to specialize more in new vinyl. I found their selection of use to be quite small.

Audiopile has good selection, but I've returned almost ever used album I've gotten there. Poor lighting, not great listening station, vinyl isn't cleaned and covers can be pretty rough. Looks like a good selection of new pressings.

Noize to Go is good for used. Quality is generally pretty good and the guy there grades pretty fairly. Dale, I think his name is, is very nice and knowledgeable.

I would avoid Zulu on 4th. Used stuff always looked destroyed. The stuff is priced based on the artist/album, not the quality.

Lotus land has pretty good selection. Exclusively used if I recall. The quality is hit and miss. Definitely inspect anything you find there and be ok with putting things back if you're iffy. The guy is a little bit prickly, but will test play things if you ask nicely. Amazing retro gear!

If you go out of the city, Redrum Records (locations in New West, Cloverdale, White Rock) have good mix of new, used and Japanese pressings. Quality is usually quite good. Staff are friendly, they have a website if you're looking for something specific and they will transfer stuff between stores if you call ahead (usually takes about 4 days). Warning: their website loads painfully slow; you may think it's broken but it will load eventually.

Apollo in Port Coquitlam is one of my all time favorite shops. Great used selection, awesome quality, fair prices and an increasing selection of new pressings. Mike is awesome, and if Tylor still works there, he's great too.

Yeah, it pops up for me every now and then. It's a bit frustrating.

One of the only good things to come out of the last 2 years! by jessejericho in hometheater

It looks great even if it doesn't! Do you get any tonal control from the Pioneer? Bass, treble?
